That Was Me With "Halo"
Today's Get Fuzzy (one of my favorite comic strips) displays the effects of video game addiction.
While Rob is playing Rugby in the strip, that was me with Halo just a few months ago.
Hmm. Wonder if there's a Rugby game for Xbox? Yes. (Thanks, Amazon). Maybe I'll have to check that out.

Like addictive enough the Mrs. Frinklin and I both had games going and got in fights over who's turn it was. Halo was perfect for us, thank heavens for Co-Op mode.
