I am still trying to figure out where the parents are on this one.

I think instead of complicating the problems (by making him addict for another thing, while trying to get rid of one), it is better to take this one step at a time. Start with the problem at hand, try to limit his access to the computer and his games.

I would also suggest to forcefully spend time with your brother (by making him go to a few weeks vacation to a far world, or maybe one or two months; real life scares/amazement are sometimes useful - but that also depends on the personality). Still, if your parents do not care too much about the problem, then what you will do may end up having no affect at all, especially after you leave for college in the fall again.
