During loading times

[Clive Howlitzer]

I am generally busy thinking about what game I'd rather be playing so I can quit this one and go play that instead.

Generally I hum little melodies to myself. Most of the time they evolve into giant air guitar solos, depending on the duration of the load.

i never really have loading times that are above maybe a minute or two, i play on the xbox 360

I have a bottle of water next to me whenever I'm playing so that I can take a sip whenever I hit a loading screen. Not only does it give me something to do but it also means I don't have to stop playing to go get some water. Its also healthy (easily the healthiest habit I have).

I reposition myself, because franky: testicles are uncomfortable.

I generally think about random things, usually pertaining to the game I'm playing at the time.

Basically I click the sticks on my control pad in and out and spin them around.

Or stroke the cat. Cat falls asleep while I'm playing the game, gets to loading screen and stroke the cat again waking it up. Repeat as necessary or as long as the cat is willing to put up with my bullshit.

I think I've just figured out why my cats have been waking me up every couple of hours every night for a fortnight. Bloody vindictive beasts!

xD I just knew I'd get a warning for my post at #5. Oh well, cest la vie. I stand by my comment though!

Aging gamers unite! Together, we have the power of decrepitude!

Thanks to my SSD, long loading times are a thing of the past! Woot!

Back in the day I had 15-20 minute loading times for missions in Wing Commander 3. I wish that was an exaggeration, but it's not. I read a book.

Actually, I remember them now too. I'd go make a sandwich and watch a cartoon while the next level loaded. It was just one game, and I forget which one. It might have been Star Wars: Dark Forces. That's kind of hard to believe. Maybe our computer was just terrible.
