Has immersion ever made you do something extremely retarded??

After a lot of oblivion playing I jumped down the stairs and nearly broke my leg. ( in oblivion jumping down things is much faster than walking)

It's faster in real life too, you've just got to be man enough to handle it.

I had to shift a cabinet at work, and for a split second went to pull out my Gravity Gun.

The first time I played a horror game (I think it was silent hill) and something popped out at me, I screamed like a little girl and threw my controller at the TV in a feeble attempt to kill the monster.

I did that to on my first run of [insert horror game here] and welcome to the escapist, don't flame or drink the water
[sup]*grumble* no one ever welcomed me[/sup]

Same Here! i've also laughed maniacally whilst picking off players with a sniper, and revelled in their angry cries across headsets. I really need to get one of those. They sound fun.
Anyways, you'll get another welcome from me, Corum. Welcome to the Escapist. Have fun!
[sup]*grumble* no one ever welcomed me either. */grumble*[/sup]

Certain games make me yelp in some kind of false pain when my on screen character gets hit or when I hit walls or obstacles on racing games.

same here my brother hates when I do that

That reminds me of those ppl who turn the controller/handheld console when driving anything.


After a GTA marathon I definatly have to resist the urge to open car doors of ppl at traffic lights if im on the pavement.
