I just realised that my aunt is very very depressed because you see i am a what people would call "Computer Gaming Addict".
So i was just playing it when my mom told me to get out of the room, i refused so she was ok she let me play but my aunt however was worse she thought i bullied my mom?
so then she starts crying and talking all sorts of stuff which i dont really understand and then she cries again?
Since you posted in Teen Issues, I assume you are a teen. Since you speak as if this incident happened at home, I assume that you live with your mother. What do you do? Try obeying your mother, OR, find another place to live and play games all you want.
You left out a lot of information that would help people understand what the problem is, so I based my answer on what information you gave.

Maybe your aunt is simply extremely sensitive to seeing her sister mistreated- If Dorian's correct in assuming that you still live under your mother's roof, you don't actually have the right to stay in the room playing video games after your mother asks you to leave it. On the off chance that you're already self supporting and this occurred in your home, not your mother's, it is unspeakably rude to play video games while real, live people are present, unless they also are gamers.
Your aunt may or may not be depressed, but your treatment of your mom sounds disrespectful and that your mom gave in is enough to make a sister weep.

I must agree with the others. It doesn’t sound as though your aunt is crazy, it sounds more like she is expecting you to be respectful of your mothers’ wishes and that when your mother asks you to do something, you do it. That is my take on the situation. If you are a self-professed "Computer Gaming Addict" then I hardly think your aunt is the one with the problem.

Auntie, I love my games. I don't want to dissapoint you and your choices, but you gotta understand. I love playing my games. Is there a way we could come to a conclusion?
I play my games after I do my homework and some chores around the house.
That seems like a very good compromise.
Honestly though, you sound like a whining jerk that wants his way all the time. I hate to do it, but this whole post smells of a wuss that doesn't have the guts to do anything for himself.
I'm sorry kid, but if your problem is just video games. Then you don't have one.
