THats the best way to describe WoW... Lately it is way to addictive for the user (Not everyone, but there are a lot of cases kids killing them selves, or out of line with the future due to the game WoW) . . .

Day of defeat source maybe? wide variety of classes, short respawn so he wont get impatient, and nothing he wont understand about the game.

Kids staying at home or at Internet Cafe's playing that stupid game? Or even playing the game and you have other better things to do... This game can corrupt people and their mind, and its hard to take it away from them. They are too dedicated to the game and not realizing that its just a fantasy game, and your life is more important to keep in track/aligned and do your normal daily routine or how ever you go about full filling your day

I have used to be one of those kids, mind I am only 20, its been 2 years since last I touched the game, and wasted another 2 years on this stupid game which I could have been better in school, person life, or anything in that matter...

Warcraft only ruins peoples lives that would've been otherwise ruined by other trivial things that only idiots get addicted to. I tried WoW when I was 15, played it for a few months but it gets incredibly boring.

Okay lets forget WoW I was only throwing it out there because no-one else did. Anyway why not get him Far Cry 2 he might like that, Bioshock as well and to top it off why not see if he likes racing games like GRID but that might be risky for a present.

Just like some loser WoW player who never leaves the house was always that way, the game (drug) addiction is just a part (result?) of that personality.

lol i smoke pot all the time, but like myself and PLENTY others it doesn't ruin my life. I do ok in school(a's, b's, c's), but i know a lot of girls and a few guys that you would be like DAM BURNT OUT MOFO'S!!! but they make almost strait A's. it's just the individual as you stated if you can't control yourself from something and realize what's important and have the drive to do what you need to to progress in life then yea lol your a loser then.\

game wise, i have FC2 and i can play it, but it started to feel more like a job to play it than just out of enjoyment. I'd say TF2 but there are annoying respawn times on a lot of servers eve i get annoyed. Just to throw it out there does he like RTS's? it's old but the best RTS and unlike any other, STARCRAFT NUKKA love this game and am so siked for SC2. also does he have Unreal Tournament 3? it's a very fun fast paced FPS. I thk he would enjoy that.

man you confused me, he loves RPGs but kicked ass at crysis/warhead and got bored with fallout and oblivion? sounds to me like he loves FPSs!
That's what I thought...

I've been wracking my brain for about five minutes and I always come back to Dues Ex (rated Mature). I would say Mass Effect and The Witcher but both of those have sexual themes. Dues Ex still has some...suggestive...themes (Illuminati, NWO, things of the sort) but it is an FPS, it is pretty extensive, pretty much any modern computer can run it maxed, and it is pretty long. It even has RPG elements.

There's really no good FPS games rated Teen. But, Crysis is rated M as well so... Dues Ex and Dues Ex: Invisible War? If he's ready for a tiny bit of sexual stuff, bump him up to Mass Effect.

I'm with FordGT on this, he does great at shooters but does not have the patience for RPGs yet loves them?
I'm confused.
RPGs are usually a lot of reading and stat and inventory manipulation (which seem to bore him).
Get him a copy of Painkiller and let him blast baddies to his hearts content.

So what you're essentially saying is, that all people who fall victim to addictions, are natural born losers?

Well I guess you would qualify then, for how often you use your computer; and pretty much anyone else here at TPU or on the internet.
