Do games mix well with alcohol?

[GonzoGamer]

Yes games mix well with alcohol. Even better with weed. [don't do drugs kids]

While being intoxicated probably wont improve your performance for most games (some games like Burnout Revenge where the whole idea is to crash your car are an exception) you may find that the games performance improves: characters seem funnier & more lifelike after a pint or two and the colors may pop a little more after you finish that roach.

only game that improves with alcohol is pool.. otherwise it just messes up your reactions to much to play properly

What about bowling? I couldn't imagine bowling without beer.

I'd never purposely get drunk to play video games. There's more entertaining thing I could be doing shitfaced.

Guitar Hero becomes a good drinking game.
A shot for every note missed.

Isn't that going to get close to alcohol poisoning after a while?

I used to play it at a party where you's play a song, and everyone else had to share the percentages he hit between them. Great times.

If you're mates are round and theres Die Hard on later then it's awesome. Ripping people apart with Dan on SF4 when pissed is great for boasting, having a friend rage quit on local is better

In low stress games like fallout 3 then definetly, in all others (especially guitar hero/ rock band games then definetly not)

Oh man it mixes well! CoD4 and Halo three online are some of my friends and I's personal favorites.

I remember one time doing so poorly online that a person had wrote a xbox live note to my buddies accounts saying that player two (the screen that I was on) was the worst halo player ever. Not my fault. One drink for every positive death ratio then two for how points you were in the hole. I was getting like negative 11 and had to do 22 drinks. that finishes of a 40 pretty quickly.

Burnout+booze=fun-on-the-bun

Do they mix well with alcohol? Why not try it and find out yourself?

I guarantee you: you'll be screaming every curse there exists at Call of Duty 4 on Veteran after you mixed alcohol itself, such as beer and wine.

Army of Two + beer + mate = A manly, but straight, experience

 

[obliterate]

Fun, but uneffective.

Yup totally

 

[chenry]

Doesn't help me play better, that's for sure. But hell if it isn't fun.

 

[lucksack]

I heard that if you drink enough alcohol sonic games seem more attractive...

 

[Asickorphan]

sounds like a fun idea ... especialy with multiplaying games,such as Rock Band and such....

 

[curty129]

Damn, never have. But i'll try it sometime

Don't have any friends to get drunk and play with though

Poor me..

 

[Skarvig]

Depends on the intoxication degree. A few beer makes you better at aiming cause alcohol calms you and your hand. That's why there's beer at a german Schützenfest.
I had quite a good time with alcohol and Team Fortress 2.

I don't drink, but I imagine it trades in skill for enjoyment. Unless you're a bitter drunk, in which case I'd stay away from anything unless sober.

 

[Hobo Joe]

I've never tried but I've read funny stories about people on CoD4 that used to get maybe 15 kills in a match and in one game on shipment he got a 50 kill streak while completely pissed

 

[ae86gamer]

Its fun to do, but it usually brings the performance of your gaming down.

[sup]Playing Noby Noby Boy while you're drunk is extremely fun. :][/sup]
