> I can't play video games "for fun". I want to be good and that costs time. Video games have the downside of giving players easy rewards. I think it does something bad to your brain. Not necessarily altering it forever, but at least turning one into a little dopamine junkie.

I'm not sure this adds up. I think I get a dopamine fix when I play simple, relaxing games or games with the difficulty set too low, but not when playing to win. Getting better at StarCraft, for example, requires you practice the same openings over and over while focusing on things that aren't particularly fun. You discover just how lazy the human mind is and then feel bad about it :)
