Submission + - Shocking gamer sleep study
An anonymous reader writes: In a shocking study that doubtless wasn't a complete waste of...well...somebodies money, a Syracuse University professor found that people who play games with an on-line interactive component (like MMORPGs) tend to lose sleep compared to gamers that play games that don't. It's reported that playing games which involve socializing with other players tends to draw people in, causing them to lose sleep. On the plus side, this particular researcher said that the term addiction can't be applied to games.
