Do you take breaks while gaming?

[dietpeachsnapple]

But gaming is my break for reality.

Who the hell takes breaks from breaks?

If this forum had signatures... that would be it.

I must concede to these conclusions.

Taking a break from a break is ludicrous.

RAGE QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!

If I have nothing else on that day, then the only breaks I take are to go to the bathroom or get something to drink.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

yeah, i take breaks all the time. Never really on purpose, and i don't time how long i have them.

Its just after a few ,matches of MW2 i just take a break and do stuff on the computer. Same with every game i play unless im going on the occasinal marrathon session.

 

[mikecoulter]

I get up and go make tea[the drink]. That or I go about the internet.

 

[Woodsey]

Nope.

I'll stop if I get bored/frustrated, or if I need to do something else. I don't use my recommended 15 to write another paragraph on coursework.

Talk about breaking immersion.

 

[Mr.logic]

only when i have headaches from playing to long

 

[Mr. Purple]

Depends. If its a good game or if its new, Ill often spend several hours in awe without moving.

I do when I get totally steamed and need to cool off.

This.

I was just playing a round of Uncharted 2 with some of the most annoying fucking players (I.e. Children) I have ever encountered.

So I'm now here, cruising the web and chattin' it up.

 

[Lemon Of Life]

I never play more than one or two hours, so I don't really need them.

 

[Bigwig]

If I'm gonna be playing for a long time, then I usually take a break after a couple hours for sanity purposes.

 

[thylasos]

A ten-minute snack and wazz break, perhaps.

 

[DemonicVixen]

*mechanical robot voice* I do not leave my games. My computer is never off. My eyes are always on the screen. What is a break and how do I take it?


Ok i think my brain has been fried by too many long hours on games or just random stuff on my laptop.

 

[john_alexander]

I take a break usually once every two or three hours (if I can actually find a game I want to play for that long nowadays).

 

[IamQ]

I never takes breaks such as "Wow, I feel like I have played this game for too long. I should probably take a break." it's more like one of these cases "Damn this game sucks, I should throw it out the window RIGHT NOW!" or "Man...Sooo...tired...must sleep...ZZZzzzZzzzzz...."

Every hour or so I get up and walk around the house, use the washroom, get a drink, etc.

I hate little kids talking online, especially when they get hyper and start screaming.

 

[ultrachicken]

If it's a good single player game, then I don't stop till I've beaten it. This results in me spending $60 on a game that lasts one day. Most multiplayer games I don't play for very long at a time because I get frustrated. Sometimes my team sucks, sometimes I suck, or sometimes the other team is just waaaay too good.

 

[MetaKnight19]

The only time I take breaks are when my eyes start to dry up because I have stopped blinking. The best example of this happening was when I was playing Puzzle Quest for 6 hours straight, I think my eyes were actually starting to gather dust.

Either that or when I go for a walk because I begin to tire of the game I was playing.
