All the time. I do it almost constantly while gaming, at work, etc. I hum random themes too, not just from things I've recently played. Like this evening I've been humming the F-Zero theme (or is it Cap Falcon's theme?) despite not having played any F-Zero in months...unless you count Nintendo Land...well damn.

Does me being able to hum the tune of every fallout 3 song (including instrumentals) without even realizing it answer that?

The Battlefield and Halo themes already posted above do it for me, so not only do I hum them, I finger drum and "dadadaaaa" them as well :p And on top of that, most of the soundtracks, I have purchased and I well belt them out at max volume from my speakers, much to the ire of those who simply do not understand what awesome music is :p. At the moment, "117" from the Halo 4 OST is sitting on a substantial play count since it's been stuck on repeat ;-)

Yup, all the time. Hell, that's what I was doing before I saw this thread!

I was humming music from Zelda at work today. I didn't notice until someone asked if that was what I was doing.

Gotta do something with those empty clock cycles :D

I do this all the time to the Sonic Generations soundtrack. Usually when I'm doing chores around the house, you can here me humming Seaside Hill - Modern, Crisis City - Classic, and Wisp Planet - Modern.

The chorus is so much fun. 0.44 and onward if anyone's interested.

Holy crap, I thought I was the only one in the friggin' world who did that! You've got no idea how awesome it was to read this.

----------------------

But yeah, I don't just hum, I flat out sing, complete with "doo"s "Daa"s "dnn"s and mimicking instrument sounds. Hell, if the song is good enough, I even do it around my friends. Probably annoys the hell out of them now that I think about it....

I prefer to whistle. If someone's in the room, I'll just tap my foot quietly.

If the song has lyrics, then I'm signing, dammit!

Oh Christ... the curse to normal word ratio would be THROUGH THE ROOF D:

I love it.

and yes, I do often more than just humming. Lalala-ing, whistling etc. I love me some nifty video game musak

But of course. Sometimes I even crack out my guitar to play along scratchily in an attempt to master it by ear. Some game I have good success with (Skyrim, Halo 4) whilst others, not so much (battlefield).

I usually don't do it while I'm actually playing. But my brother brought his copy of P4 Arena to the house over Turkey Day Weekend and I'll be damned if I haven't been humming that music for the last 5 or so days. Damn you Persona! . . . Aw I'm sorry Persona, how can I stay mad at you?
Also Drake's theme in the Uncharted games is damn catchy

Depends which mood I'm in, and whether I like the game's soundtrack or not.
If I'm in the right mood and yes, then yes.
If I'm in the wrong mood and yes, then no.
If I'm in the right mood and no, I'll put on custom playlists on Itunes and hum along to them.
If I'm in the wrong mood and no, I'll put on a custom playlist on Itunes and just listen to it whilst playing.

Yes. Oh god yes. I'm not the only one! I hum to the music of games, particularly when playing something I've played for quite a while. Like SWtor or GW2. What else there is to do during loading screens? I also fingerdrum. Occasionally I fingerdrum and hum simultaneously and it's like an orchestra inside my apartment!

Haha, indeed, there are times we're either laughing so hard when playing Worms, or getting very aggressive on Mario Kart, that we all make quite a scene.

That being said, times are changing and I've since moved onto the PS Vita. I have got a 3DS, but I never play solo, and it seems my friends aren't impressed enough with that console to buy it. Our DS gaming days are numbered.
