Many people consider playing video games to be an addiction. This is mainly because the players refuse to stop playing. They gradually spend more of their time in playing than anything else. And what not they even look out for similar games once a game is finished.
The American Medical Association reported that it is not an addiction. There was a heated debate that went on to conclude that it is not an addiction but the data available is insufficient to conclude so. More study is needed to support that it is an addiction.
However their study also revealed that 12 percent are more addicted to the online and video games in Britain. They base this assumption on conditions similar to addiction to alcohol. Alcoholics never tend to give up and at some point of time end up losing time without working, bathing or even eating. They say that in the US 10 to 15 percent are affected by overuse of the video games.

Gazebo
A gazebo is a pavilion structure commonly found in parks, gardens, and spacious public areas. Gazebos are freestanding, roofed, and open on all sides; they provide shade, basic shelter, ornamental features in a landscape, and a place to rest. In their original use—the word appears in English in 1752— they were sited to take advantage of a view, so much so that among the false etymologies for gazebo are Que c'est beau (French: "How beautiful") and the Macaronic Latin gazebo ("I shall gaze").
Earlier examples of garden pavilions that have survived were more solidly built, though open to views. Pavilions that a later generation might have termed gazebos are the garden houses at Montacute House. Some gazebos in public parks are large enough to serve as bandstands.
