Or work for that matter.

You know the sort, like Metal Gear Solid or Final Fantasy VII (I missed work for 3 months because of Final Fantasy games).

Are there any games that you have now or are thinking of getting that are going to take over your life during term-time to the extent that you're gonna skip a few days?

To game or not to game, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous truancy officers etc...

For me, I reckon Crazy Taxi 2 or Skies of Arcadia on the Dreamcast are going to drag me away from working for a while. But then I don't really work that hard anyway and when I do it's on a self employed basis.

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do, for work I mean?

Addictive? Nah. Compulsive though, FF7 made me jack my job in so I could spend more time getting to grips with its subtle intricacies.

Then I started work again around the time I got FF8, which was bad news for my employer basically.

Since I went self employed I just have to write myself a sicknote, so it's not a problem anymore.

3 months!!??!?!

Bloody hell, that must be one addictive game!

I have to confess, I've never missed any lectures because of games. I've stayed up 'til 3am playing B&W, but luckily I didn't have any lectures 'til 11am the next day, so I still made it in.
