Our UK brothers recently posted a guide to knowing when games are taking over your life. We thought we’d take that idea one step further.

We’ve all been there before; some gaming experience we’d never share - something so embarrassing we wouldn’t disclose to anyone other than our private blogs. For every World of Warcraft wedding you usher on the weekends, there’s a copy of Hannah Montana for the DS we had double-bagged at EB Games. We’ve compiled a list of reasons that may or may not apply to you - and if they do, then you know you’ve hit rock bottom when…

1) You're playing Runescape.

2) You own a gamer chair.

3) Your income comes from Second Life.

4) Your Dreamcast VGA mod is coming loose.

5) You're standing in line at Toys R Us with a bunch of kids, waiting to get a special event Pokemon.

6) You’re standing in line with your DS, chaining for shiny Pokemon.

7) You have odd dreams about breaking the chain in catching a shiny Pokemon.

8) You're writing a nude patch for the Champions of Norrath Online Card Game.

9) You're writing a news article about the nude patch in Champions of Norrath.

10) You capture video for said nude patch.
