Brit Tennis Star Beats PS3 Addiction, Gets Hooked on DS

British tennis ace Andy Murray is back with his girlfriend after besting his crippling addiction to Modern Warfare 2, which he conquered by spending the DS for hours at a time.

Back in December, we reported that British No. 1 Andy Murray had broken up with girlfriend Kim Sears over the tennis star’s seven-hour-a-day obsession with Modern Warfare 2 and other PS3 games. “He would spend all his time glued to [videogames],” said a source close to the couple. “In the end she just got fed up with it.”

Now, however, we’re happy to report that according to the Daily Mail, Murray and Sears have gotten over their differences and are back together once again – and Murray has kicked his MW2 habit. The young couple was spotted on vacation in the Bahamas relaxing by the pool.

According to an observer, “[they] spent about two-and-a-half hours by the pool, she was reading her book and he spent most of that playing on his Nintendo DS.”

So wait, he was lounging out with a mega-babe girlfriend by the pool in a tropical paradise, and spent the entire time playing his DS? Uh, not to be a Debbie Downer here, Ms. Sears, but I think it’s entirely possible that your tennis-star boyfriend may have just replaced one addiction with another.

That’s okay, though. I mean, Dragon Quest IX and Pokemon will get you pretty hooked. It’s perfectly understandable.
