This comes off as kind of condescending. Clearly not everybody who participates in drinking games has a drinking problem, otherwise you'd see almost everybody who went to college in the US or several other countries (as evidenced by the rest of the comments here) would be alcoholics. Drinking games provide a social middle ground—everybody knows them (or the rules are simple to explain), they provide an opportunity to break the ice with new people, and some of them are just fun. There's no need to read so far into them as to say that everyone who plays drinking games is an addict.
