How have video games screwed with you - Games

After playing shadow complex, i forgot i could move in 3d.

One week my internet was out, and I played Saints Row 1 for 70 hours that week. A week later I'm sitting in the backseat of a car, and I want to look who's driving behind us, my finger automatically clicks where LT (or LB or whatever) is on an XBOX 360 controller, instead of just turning my head :v:

I sometimes run like Raziel.

[QUOTE=DuncanFrost;12645349]They destroyed any chance I might have of a social life.[/QUOTE] It is a sad thing, to be sure :saddowns:

Dead Rising made me imagine eating a giant piece of food in one bite alot when im walking around or holding something Ill imagine im in a first person shooter, and ill make footstep sounds with my mouth.

Wherever I go I'm looking for a way out and trying to figure out the best paths as well as being wary of anyone watching me or following me. Especially when driving.

I've had the tetris effect, after playing tetris constantly for a week, it was a fun game but I just couldn't handle the effect everything I thought of ended up trying to form tetris blocks or thinking of how each piece can fit in any other situations and t-spins. press ctrl+z even when away from my keyboard, like in the air. I also once looked outside and I actually said to myself, "what graphics!" then realized this wasn't a game. oh and like everyone a computer nerd with no social life.

I don't know, but i think that if i seen somebody get shot/killed/die i wouldn't really be affected by it.. i mean, i see it everyday in games/movies... Anybody else think this? Aside from that, sometimes in class i think about what i would do if a zombie outbreak happened or a mass shooting..

When i hear someone crying i turn off my flashlight

When i play CoD 4 and i camp in a corner looking through my ironsights for a good 5 minutes and i look away from my screen i see ironsights :/ Battlefield 2 only requires me to look through the sights for like 5 seconds to get his :S

GTA has stripped me of the ability to take any free roam police force seriously. Speaking of which, whenever Red Faction: Guerrilla's EDF patrols say 'You will be stopped by any means necessary!', I imagine they're going to say 'You will be sued and stripped naked!', a line from one of GTA4's crazy homeless people.

Lb, Lb, LB, LB !! Why V.A.T.S !

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;17430619]Go to hell, please.[/QUOTE] Well that was not very nice :(

I have no social life. When I use to walk through areas of my home town beacuse of playing to many RTS games I'd imagine how I'd defend an area and what emplacements I'd build and where I'd have fall-back points and artillery choke points and stuff. Also when I sat my GCSEs I thought no biggie if I fail I'll just load a save ga- oh... I also used to use FlashMX so much when I fucked up a painting in art class I tried pressing Ctrl - Z. I also use to try painting in layers and got mentally pissed one time when I couldn't lock a layer then I remembered I was in the real world :frown: I also like playing games online beacuse that's one of the few places I feel accepted for who I am.

Me and a few friends who played ArmA had a walk at night and started yelling squad orders in the way that soldiers speak in OFP/ArmA (You'd have to know the game to understand), though this was intentional. I did occasionally, and sometimes still rarely have a sudden sense that I am in actual reality and it feels like I come close to fainting as I realize this, which I find very strange.

Not a game but when I'm listening to some songs I can clearly hear an MSN tone at exact parts of songs.

I hear noises from games, like uncloaking spies from TF2. Also for some wierd reason i've not had a full nights sleep after playing Batman: Arkham Asylum fully.

After I played Space Station 13 for months I kept on fucking typing "say" before anything else in Steam and in Online games :argh:.

[QUOTE=imadaman;17479287][B]Are we like brothers?[/B] [U]I do Facepunch 'coz it keeps me underground...[/U][/QUOTE] hmm no we're not sadly but glad to know I'm not the only idiot who thought I could reload my game after my GCSE results and try again.

Like in GTA 4, when I cross streets, I half-expect cars to near-hit me.

I think of boomers every time I see fat people.

I said dev textures when looking at orange and gray gym wall.

I keep hearing random game sounds from about everywhere. Also after playing oblivion very much, I expected every cop to either say "Good day, citizen" or the classic phrase.
