I am very pleased that Gamespot has included this as a story, it is an oft avoided and quite misunderstood topic. Though I truly believe there are gaming addicts the inclusion of this specific addiction to the DSMV (as mentioned) would be a mistake. It could wrongly gloss over the true root of the sufferers problem- not the game itself, but the proclivity to become addicted. Including it could potentially neglect the why in favor of the how.
