What do you do while you game?

[PizzaDentist]

I end up having to entertain two attention whore kittens who keep trying to eat my headset wire while I play.

And that says nothing of my nagging girlfriend.

 

[Headshot Gamer UK]

well, I like to do this little thing I call breathing

 

[Blood_Lined]

I shout while I game. Usually I shout at the retarded A.I. even at Left 4 Dead sometimes.

And the lag, don't forget the lag.
Its quite funny really, "Shouting at the TV, For fycks sake Zoey Pick me up!", "Don't use your handgun, I gave you a FUCKING ROCKET LAUNCHER", "Why can't I move! What howd that guy fly over and chainsaw me! What the hell is this. Why won't this game let me quit a match!"

I sometimes even shout at JRPG's, after logging in 50 hours of game time I'm finally at the final boss at I'll catch myself taunting, shouting at, and cussing out the final boss.

When playing MMOs, I keep my music on, and occasionally Instant Messanger. If I'm on my DS, I'll have the TV on. It's only on my Wii or Gamecube that I'll focus on only the game.

Although I do occasionally eat, and sometimes the phone will ring, but then I die a whole bunch of times. For a girl, I really suck at multitasking.

I usually just play the game and drink some sort of beverage.

 

[Drakulla]

I focus on the game.

I eat white orchid fudge* when I game. It helps ease my mind, I also occassionally get lost in ponderous thought and I always like a little soft soothing jazz to go nicely with me gutting my enemies in Gears of War 2. Of course I can't end this post without making some kind of macho self complimentary satirical joke... so here it comes:
"I also occassionally pay some attention to the many beautiful Indian women swooning submissivley and stroking my chest."

Vrex loves this stuff.

I usually play the game. Sometimes I listen to music.

What a shocker, eh?

 

[xChevelle24]

While I game I:

1. Listen to music instead of the game itself
2. Eat
3. Drink
4. Record matches with my Capture Card
5. Edit previous videos and post them on Youtube
6. Do homework (only on finals week)
7. Text
8. Send hatemail, because it's fun!
9. Check my Myspace/Facebook/Escapist stuff
10. Watch videos on Youtube

 

[Diablini]

I eat sunflower seeds.

 

[GreyMorality]

I have two T.V's so I usually watch my shows while I play my games. Thats how I got through watching lost.

 

[the Tadman]

This is the stupidest question ever, no offense. What else do you do? You game.

 

[BardSeed]

I don't do any thing to distract me from owning some n00bs.
Off Topic: I really hate it when people listen to music on games with an open mic. Sure you can mute them while in game but in the lobby you have to listen to their crappy music.

If you're talking about Xbox LIVE, you can permanently mute them. Open their profile and select mute. Problem solved.

 

[Da Joz]

Contemplate life or get drunk, possibly both.

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

I listen to music,drink beer and mess about on my laptop when im on my 360
When im playing games on the latop, i liten to music, drink beer (i have a problem) and mess about on my 360 or watch tv

 

[Kinguendo]

I try not to talk about the game I am playing and I start random conversations also I eat sandwhiches and drink copious amounts of Lucozade... which as some of you may know I have boycotted since they started sponsoring Big Brother, however my mother bought some today so what am I supposed to do... let it go to waste?

 

[razer17]

i listen to music mostly, because i don't do much online gaming, and when i do it's sans mic.
sometimes ill chat on MSN as well, which includes a lot of pausing.
