Erm, but in all seriousness, it actually imrpoves more perfomance, for example, a I completed the Master and the Molotov on GTA4 whilst drunk, when I couldnt complete it sober after 8-9 attempts...
the message: get some more beers
Does being drunk affect your gaming performance?

either way in gb cod4 clans and SOFII clans i've been in we usually win when our older guys drink. I'm 13, turning 14 soon and by the time i'm 18-21, i'll prolly be experimenting 
Usually, my gaming skill goes to hell for FPS games such as Counter-Strike and CoD4 when I'm drunk, but on the rare occassion I'll do just as good, if not better than usual. I scrimmed on CS with my friends clan a few nights ago drunk and I clutched the round, drunk, the other team didn't hear the end of it.
As for games like WoW...I find my char hitting on the ladies for some reason when I'm drunk...sad...I know...

I become the Blood Master of Killing People in RTS games when I'm drunk. I have no idea why; the less I remember, the more skilled I seem to be.
Furthermore, the most fun I've had playing an MMO has been done while I've been high out of my hollow, googly-eyed gourd. City of Villains and pot mixes so very well.

When wasted I play the freeplay version of the level in Episode III of Lego Star Wars where Vader is created. If you play it as Jar Jar and "accidentally" double-flip him into the lava pit to watch him get respawned before "accidentally" doing it again, four hours of Gungan ass-kicking just flies right by. The score for that level is always abysmal, but my mouth hurts the next day from laughing so much.
UT variable gravity levels seem to have been designed with cannabis in mind, as after two spliffs I know guys who turn into zen masters capable of picking off players from miles away whilst in mid flight. I just end up giggling a lot.

When intoxicated (mildly at least) I find my skill in FPSs increases. Not substantially, but more that when not intoxicated I'll be more steady and deliberate whereas when I've had a few, run'n'gun baby! And hey, sometimes that gets rewarded more than slow and deliberate.
I definately did not perform up to par at CoD4 when drunk.
I also got perma-banned from a server for the following while drunk:
1. Admin tells someone I didn't know to watch their language
2. I say to the admin that it's an 'M' rated game and the Marines' side script will say 'Damn, we lost' anyway.
3. He replies that it was his server and therefore his rules.
4. I shot back in my drunken stupor 'get off your power trip' and was perma-banned in front of two clan superiors and a clan recruit

For some reason, no matter how smashed I am, my typing never takes a hit. I type more haphazardly but my instinct still leads me to correct my mistakes before moving on.
The same goes for gaming. As long as I'm familiar with the game in question, my ability to play doesn't really change, and it's strange. Almost as if the television screen is a window looking out into the world of sobriety. Haha.

I remember an instance like that, Specialist... Have I seen you?
Well, I've never been "drunk" drunk, as in with large amounts of grain alcohol, but a blood sugar issue or sheer fatigue can bring on symptoms like being drunk. I remember one time in Frets on Fire with a couple of buddies. There was this song that I had a hard time with on Amazing. My friend cranked it up to Amazing without telling me, and so I played, and whacked someone in the process, but acquired the high score regardless.
So drunkenness doesn't help you by way of the chemicals within your system, it increases the placebo effect some more (albeit due to those chemicals, but go with it).
Had the same instance in COD4, had the difficulty up on Veteran (I knew it was all the way up there this time), and I just mowed the Spetsnaz down =)
A bit off topic, but in CS:S, admins can install Mani Mod. If you were playing on my server and being a dick (although I wouldn't have complained about language unless someone was going all Samuel Jackson on us), I would have just but a beacon on you till you apologized. The beacon makes you super-easy to kill, as everyone knows your position, and you're glowing red.

in FPS games, i find my accurracy and my ability to spot small targets diminishes. to counter act this i usually switch to short range weapons as i get more drunk. MP5 when i'm well buzzed and shotguns and nades when i'm slurring drunk.
on driving games... i usually handle booze well, but there is an eventual plateu just before i pass out, where the game is unplayable. while just drunk, my driving is different but i compensate well.... so instead of doing a solid turn, when i'm drunk i'll drift through it barely missing a light post.

one time my friend and i were playing super Mario sunshine (don´t ask me it was his idea) and i thought... you know what this game needs? alcohol... so an hour and a bottle of brandy later we beat this boss that had been pissing us off all day without any trouble whatsoever... and then he proceeded to start throwing up on everything (in the game obviously) with a Yoshi... it was extremely hilarious, and if you own super Mario sunshine, don't play it unless you are royally smashed, cuz that's when it is best
i doubt it since it's an inanimate liquid. it just makes people do what they wanted to do in the 1st place... and badly. maybe you should question the motives of others rather than an arbitrary liquid.osaka35 said:
As long as it isn't used in excess and only for the occasional good time, it's no big deal. Don't blame alcohol, blame the people who abuse it. I don't know anyone in person who thinks alcohol makes them a better gamer. For me I just don't get much worse at a game, but it can be so much fun when you've been drinking.osaka35 said:
