Whenever i play Left 4 Dead singleplayer i have this strange compulsion to start talking to my A.I teamates. Am i the only one who talks to myself when you play games?

I talk to myself when doing something really difficult whilst gaming.
I don't do it all the time though, the last time being when I was doing the Deal Ending on GTA IV.

Oh I talk to myself in more than games. Like right now I'm talking to myself what my response would be to a possible response I might get on another comment.......what?

Yeah, all the time... My friends always start laughing at me when I speak to the character I'm playing with. "GO THERE! Good boy, I'll give you a cookie later, WTF DON'T DO THAT! Who are you then?" etc. It's embarrassing sometimes cos I just can't stop talking, plus I always talk in English when I play and that annoys some of my friends a lot.

Whenever A.I is involved I always talk to them. Whether it be L4D or RE5, I always talk to them.

I don't just talk to myself when gaming, I talk to myself ALL the time. Whats crazy is that it usually doesn't relate to the game I'm playing or whatever it is I'm doing, I actually have conversations with myself. Should I be concerned?

Aside from the "WHAT THE F*@K IS WRONG WITH YOU" or things like "GODDAMMIT" I don't really talk to myself during gaming. I definitely do online though. But I'm not sure if that qualifies as talking to yourself.

"C´mon, you can do it. Just dodge and strike, dodge and strike. Watch out for that flying bugger. Noooo! Why can´t you jump, for christ´s sake."

Yes, I do talk whilst playing, but not to myself. I like to give helpful tips and constructive criticism to the player character. After all, we are a team.

Yea, I talk to myself ALOT in games, either criticizing myself , the A.I, or other people with my unique brand of mixing whatever swear words I can come up with at the time and mixing them together (I'm kinda renowned for it in my gaming community) and I talk to myself around the house a lot too, for example, If I have forgotten what I went downstairs for, I'll have a go at myself for forgetting.

A bit, mostly I shout at the people in-game (NPCs or other players online).

When I die I usually swear. Does that count?
Or when something wierd happens I usually go like 'oh, shit'

Hell, I talk to myself when I'm NOT gaming let alone when I am. I've taunted many a boss and even got in trouble one time for yelling at my DS when at Church (more specifically pulling up to the Church parking lot to volunteer for a summer event but it still counts) when I yelled at the ungrateful shopkeeper in Portrait of Ruin those that have played the game will probably know what I'm talking about.

I talk to myself all the time, mainly asking myself where something is, where am I supposed to be, how someone/something is a jerk, screaming at whatever I'm killing (ye-hehehehehehe! Not so tough now? DIE ************ DIE! AHAHAHAHAHA!). You know, stuff like that.

Well its more like I'm talking aloud even when I'm the only one in the room. But yes I do talk when I'm playing games.
