Well, when I was REALLY waiting for Starcraft 2 beta to come back on I watched like 600000 videos of SC2 one day and in bed that night I started thinking "Naughty Thoughts" But then like... in my head when I was to do "Naughty deeds" my brain was like "Oh shite, but I need more minerals to do that".

Freaked me right out.

I once played Final Fantasy IV so much I had the overworld theme stuck in my head whenever I walked around. This went on for weeks even after I stopped playing it.

I try to perform half the stunts the character Lightning can do in Final Fantasy.

.. It doesn't go over well. At all.

I lol'd.

I keep hearing that 'signature' sound the APC from Aliens makes sometimes when I hear a car.
AVP2 FTW!

Sometimes when I see a cop car I want to ram it before I remember that that is illegal in not Need for Speed Most Wanted land. I swear I'm going to forget one of these days.

While walking down a dark alley, I found myself spy-checking.
Didn't stop playing though.

When ever I start playing STALKER for long periods of time, I start consciously thinking: "I need to quick save before I do ."

It's kind of weird.

When I was younger, I played Tetris for hours, because I had the game. I used to hear the music in my dreams.

THIS.

Also, playing Mirror's Edge for too long can make me cockier. I'll go out and do stunts and shit. And then fall. It hurts.

I've started to apply Warhammer 40k quotes and maxims to everyday life situations.

It usually doesnt end well.

Hey me too. Postal 2 is really immersive (not actually a word but u get it)
The only thing thats carried over for me is the postal dude's quotes.

when someone is just better than everyone else at something me and my friends say they have a 99 in it. 99 is the highest lvl you can get in a skill in runescape. for example, i seen a guy cut open a cigar, and empty the guts with two fingers in one smooth motion. that guy had 99 blunt cutting.

I occasionally had urges to urinate on people at the bank to move the line after I played that game.


Now, the only one that stills affects me is Portal. Every chance I get, I would think about trying to solve a problem with Portals.

After a few hours of Fallout 3 I walked out of my room and heard my dad make a groaning noise that sounded like a Super Mutant. Without even thinking, my hands instinctively hit the hotkey to equip my assault rifle (always right on the control pad for me), then bring out the gun (square), and finally turn towards the source of the sound. This all happened in less than a second and then after being freaked out for a second, I realized what had happened and laughed to myself.
