Games you still play well when sloshed.

[Chknboy]

I had an experience a few weeks ago at a summer party where the DDR pads were broken out near the tail end of the night. I hadn't played in a long time, but back in the day I'd ace heavy songs and I thought it would be a good laugh to play while impaired. Turned it on and was surprised to find out I played just as well as I had remembered.

Are there any games that you can play just as well, or better while under the influence?

Any FPS... I'll be complaining about my lack of ammunition once I've cleared a level, but other than that...

SSX Tricky...I can pick it up after 2-3 years without playing, be totally drunk and/or high and still pull off a high score.

Don't you get motion sickness? I know I used to when I tried to play Doom after a few too many drinks. Then again Doom plays about twice as fast as most modern shooters.

OT: Wipeout was about the only game I could ever play well when drunk. No idea why, given that it was hard as hell sober.

MW2. For some reason I play it a lot better wasted than sober. Fear my drunken wrath!

Bulletstorm by a long margin. Also Soul Calibur.

I was pretty drunk when I did this run in Bulletstorm



At the time it was the highest score on all platforms for Spaceport. It's 3rd or 4th now I believe :/ That's what you get for showing your strategies. Although intoxication led to several pretty big mistakes. Mostly on the first miniboss.

with you on this one! Snowboarding while drunk rules! (virtually, IRL I can see it only ending badly!)

Aside from the usual Rock Band, I do pretty well in the Forza Motorsport series when inebriated. The driving line really helps when you're seeing double Also, Street Fighter IV, for some reason my inputs are much smoother and if I rely on my reactions instead of trying to out think my opponent I tend to do rather well.

I try and stay away from RPGs when I'm drunk though... I never know what will be up with my game when I come back to it sober.

Rock Band/Guitar Hero. Hell, I'll even sing! Also sports games (specifically FIFA) and fighters

Nope... you get motion sickness upon a few too many drinks? That's... strange from my POV. To a certain extent, my visual alacrity increases the more I drink, which I know is bizarre in its own way. And then I hit a certain alcohol level... before promptly passing out. But yeah, when I'm just short of drunk, I'll be surprisingly dextrous, if a bit nauseous (not that I'd care).

I still play Rock Band pretty damn well after some drinking. Better than the other drunk people, anyway..

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Any guitar hero/rock band type game. Also, alcoholically reduced inhibitions lead to me singing (and singing well, dammit!)

 

[LordRoyal]

Team Fortress 2

For some reason I play the Sniper really well when I'm drunk.

Crash Team Racing and to a lesser extent Mario kart (GC ver) can still play them pretty well even when smashed also street fighter 4 I am generally better at pissed but it can go too far with that if I have too much my reflexes become really really crap and I cant even pull off moves like Blankas electric or Chunlis lightning kick so I usually lose.
The few matches I have one in this condition I have no idea how I can only assume my opponent was somehow more wasted than me or some sort of human vegetable.
