Addicted to Video Games?

Jeremy — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 13:18:53 +0000

If so, you’re not going to believe this – there is an actual rehab center for those addicted to not only video games, but treats internet addiction and cell phone addiction as well.

The reSTART Internet Addiction Recovery Program specializes in treatment for internet, gaming, texting and video game excessive use. I myself have known relationships that have been torn apart due in part to World of Warcraft and excessive gameplay. South Park did a parody on this game, and it was strikingly realistic!

Pricing starts at $14,500 for 45-day treatment and $27,000 for 90-day treatment – this does NOT include a $200 application fee, an $800 2-day screening interview fee and an $200 airport pick-up fee!

Our professionally trained clinicians understand technology related behavioral addictions, and the impact such conditions have on a person’s life. We work with individuals, couples and families to help them better understand and recover from an Internet, Video Gaming or Technology related behavioral addiction, as they reconnect with what’s important and meaningful in their lives.

Counseling Program Services available include:

Thorough individualized assessments

Clinically designed programs tailored to meet individual needs

Individual counseling with professionally trained staff

Group counseling and psychotherapy

Life skills and vocational coaching

Mindfulness based stress reduction programs and group-work

12-step meetings and spiritual recovery

We invite you to meet with one of our clinicians for an assessment and development of an individualized treatment plan to help you or someone you care about, learn to manage, and in many cases overcome, a behavioral addiction.

With that said, I highly doubt insurance will cover any of this. Today only, PCQuikFix is running a special – for the low low price of $2,500, we will send a PCQuikFix technician to your home to remove any and all power cords associated with your video game consoles…problem solved!

At this weeks GDC 2010 in San Francisco, Sony has announced details and the upcoming release of their new “Playstation Move” motion contollers. Sony promises that the Move will deliver “a motion-based, high-definition gaming experience unlike anything on the market.”

The Playstation Move is said to be more accurate that Nintendo’s WiiMote thanks to advanced motion sensors. These controllers will also include the typical shock and rumble features that have become standard in most controllers today. Sony has announched multple packages.
