　　A few years ago a very controversial game hit the shelves at local game stores worldwide．I became addicted, playing the game day in and day out．In the game my rivals wore all purple, so they were easy to pick out while driving up and down the streets in my car．I became obsessed(着迷)with taking over their territory．In order to do that, I had to knock them dead．It was fun．

However, one sweet day my boyfriend and I were driving around our town and I spotted a person wearing purple．In my mind I was brought back to my game, and jokingly I said to my boyfriend,“A rival!shoot him up!”

　　Now of course this was all joking, but the reality was, the man wearing purple made me think of violence, harm, and destruction： Now thankfully I have a pretty good grasp on reality and virtual reality．For some though, when video games begin to take over and merge(融合)in with their reality, it can be/become a deadly game- but for real．

　　There's a story about a young girl who died after playing the game for several days straight．She became so addicted to gaming that she didn't eat or sleep, which in turn caused death．A similar story involves an older man from South Korea who actually quit his job to play his video game of choice．He played his game in an Internet cage for three days straight where he eventually died．

　　The stories go on．A quick google search and you'll find some sad stories involving men and women losing jobs, their family and money over their gaming obsessions．It's a shame that some people don't know when to cut virtual reality out of their lives．If you're losing things in REAL life, it's time to say GAME OVER．
