You know games are taking over your life when... you keep playing war, even when baby needs cuddles
Here's a teaser for you: The little baby thing that the love of your life carried around in her womb for nine months before putting herself through the various uncomfortable demands of childbirth is crying. You're in the middle of killing make-believe men in Call of Duty 4. What do you do?
a) Put down the controller and investigate the cause of baby's audible distress?
OR
b) Keep playing?
We know. It's a tricky moral dilemma, but we'd hope that daddy gamers would choose the first option.
And while we don't know if the squawking infant heard in the movie below actually belongs to the player, the fact that it's the only noise that can be heard (besides the murderous din emanating from the virtual war zone, of course) makes us think that this particular soldier really should've laid down his arms and checked on the nipper. Yes, controllers need holding, but babies need cuddles more.
