Video Games Spilling Into Real Life.

Assassins creed my god so many buildings I have thought about climbing

On a similar note, whenever someone is getting really annoying, I think of the best way to kill him without drawing attention.
There are now 5 fewer Twilight fans in this world.

EDIT: I also imagine I'm driving a tricked-out Ice Cream truck many times. Cookie for reference.

Every time I see an airplane I think it's a UAV.

Well, after playing Assassin's Creed 2 a lot, I have found myself walking with Ezio's purposeful, predator-esque stride and posture. I highly recommend it; you have no idea how much of a badass you feel like, stalking down the street like he does.

Playing too much Just Cause 2 makes me bored of walking everywhere. I look around the city thinking 'that's prime for grappling'...

*walks past crate*

*looks at crate*

*smashes crate to pieces*

*looks at everyone looking at me*

*runs away*

I always walk like that. I once overheard a group saying when I was walking by: 'christ, he looks like a fucking assassin!'
'yeah, he does!'
etc.

I (just for the hell of it) glared sideways, and saw fear on their faces. Oh, the feeling of power!

OT: after too many sessions of Bioshock I&II I started seeing those healthbars over people. and when someone threw a teddybear at someone else, they suffered damage, as if hit by telekinesis!


I stopped gaming for a week, and only then deemed it safe to continue.

Too much Fallout 2 makes me want to drive up into the hinterlands of northern Washoe County because I'm pretty sure Vault City is there and I'm down in New Reno.

On a more serious note, I get some...weird ideas about social interaction when I've played too much Sims 3.

After finishing Battlefield: Bad Company 2, I started to look at every building as if I could blow a hole in its side.

 

[DannibalG36]

Assassin's Creed, I pushed through a crowd just like you do in the game. Got some odd looks, but they did move...just like the game.

Yeah... They would definitely move.

Can't remember any gaming ones right now, but I've definitely tried to Ctrl+F a large book to look for a specific quote on many occasions

I do belive this is known as the Tetris Effect. When a person who plays Tetris or some other game so much that they start to do things like, see a gap and wondering how they could fit a tetris block in there.

I use that at work to my advantage. I often have to stack things, and I just make a little Tetris game out of it to stack it as neatly and stable as possible. I sometimes even hum the Tetris music along with it. Of course it gets me funny looks, but my stacks of...whatever are always the most stable ones in the store.

I'm going to try that next time I'll be at work or in town.

Also, im a little embarressed to say this but one time i actually strapped a Flashight, onto my paintball gun and went out in the streets and had a zombie hunting extravaganza, but sadly i found none.

Wait.... Ooooooh I thought you said Fleshlight not flashlight
OT: I used to wheneveri got on a keyboard I would adapt a WASD grip on it. Lol

So, I'm watching the metal remix of Lady Gaga's Paparazzi and she looks a lot like a Splicer from Bioshock

Back during Vanilla WoW days, this one time, I tried to use the HearthStone to warp back home.
It failed (obviously).
Then felt disappointed that such technology does not exist.

Ha ha, that walk runs in my family, so I do it naturally. When we all walk together, we look so cool. I also tend to look at everything around me really slowly, which is also pretty cool.

OT: I'm always thinking: "I'd better save now and load when I screw this up." Alas, I cannot.
I also sometimes try to use telekinesis after playing Psi-Ops, but that doesn't get me anywhere either
