Computer game playing

How many students here tend to play computer games? Do some students fail due to excessive computer game playing? And what games tend to be most popular here? Is it seen as a way of coping with stress, oftentimes?

I know somebody who switched from course 6 (EECS) to course 15 (management) because he played too much Counterstrike.

I was at East Campus two weeks ago playing Halo with about 5 other EC students. I heard that it's common for them to play Halo to relax between PSETS and Preparations for tests. Btw, they're not failing, they just know when to play and when to work
