Robbie Williams has a new addiction - computer games.

The 'Angles' singer has struggled with drug and drink addictions in the past, but has confessed his latest vice is spending hours playing on games consoles, after getting hooked on a golf simulation.

He said: "'Tiger Woods 2006' on the Sony PlayStation is my latest fad.

"I've tried to make the game character look like me. It's an art in itself - but I can't quite seem to get it right. It's a good way to squander a few hours, though."

Robbie also revealed that he might have to kick his addiction to tattoos, because he can no longer take the pain.

During an interview on London's Capital Radio station, he told British DJ Johnny Vaughn: "I have 18. They problem is they get more painful as you get older."

Earlier this week, Robbie - who is about to release new single 'Rudebox' - hinted he may quit the music business, because he no longer wants to be part of the "pop machine".

He said: "I've got to take the view over the next 18 months and see if I want to be part of the machine any more, because I don't see me singing again."
