Uh, I can totally agree that gaming is an awesome stress-killer, but I had the feeling that I literally abused it and played too much and therefore wasted my time. Sure I had fun, but I have gained nothing from gaming. Coding addons is whole different story imo, it's another activity which for sure makes a lot of fun and you develop a useful skill set. And of course it all depends on the time you invest into gaming.
