Video games being blamed for divorce as men 'prefer World of Warcraft to their wives'
This has soared from five per cent a year ago, the study by Divorce Online found.
In particular, disgruntled wives blamed World of Warcraft, which allows gamers to create their own fantasy character for mythical adventures, and Call Of Duty, where gamers battle in various war zones.
The games have faced heavy criticism in the past for their addictive properties, with some claiming that World of Warcraft is more addictive than cocaine.
