What do you guys do during loading times?

[Berserker119]

I toss whatever I can find in the air and catch it. Stuff like drum sticks, wii remotes, xbox controllers, guitar hero guitars, tables, TVs, industrial size fans, etc.

 

[Girl With One Eye]

Browse the escapist.

 

[Taneer]

Twirl the controller.

 

[Narclaw]

I just stare at the loading bar/screen or whatever, and wait for it to finish. If I'm downloading a game on Xbox live, I'll play something else while I wait.

The instant they start i dive out of my window, just cause 2 style, hijack a car, drive it at 300mph around the local green screaming my head off with all the windows open, until a flaming grizzly bear with chainsaws for arms jump on top of the car. At this point i dive out of the window and jump up on the roof (also just cause 2 style) and wrestle the grizzly bear, taking several severe burns and wounds, until i manage to RKO him to the ground. At this point i use the chainsaws along with a carefully constructed system of pulleys to create a trebuchet of sorts, and launch myself back to my house and through the open window. At this point the loading screen has usually finished, unless it's bayonetta.

I make plans to kill everyone i meet...even people on the escapist who live in australia and other far away lands.

 

[jojoemon]

I listen to music. sometimes I read, or get up and walk around

 

[Treeinthewoods]

That used to be when I'd hit my bong, nowadays it's when I sip my "purple drank." Load times aren't long enough to do much else really.

Now while waiting for DLC to finish downloading I have gone out for dinner, played games on the computer, gone to work for the day... all kinds of stuff (I love background downloads).

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

Shadowbox? Usually if I need a refill I run off and get a cup of Joe.

 

[Communist partisan]

Scratch my head, my computer isn't slow or from the early 1800 so everything goes pretty quick.

 

[TheGameXXVII]

sometimes i am lucky enough to have my DSi handy and in those situations i just play a little on Pokemon until the game i'm playing loads.
if i don't have my DSi near me i just wait.

 

[Kwaren]

I watch TV

 

[Acryllos]

I pretend my cellphone is a gun and shoot imaginary enemies in my room...

 

[Brazilianpeanutwar]

Play bass for a couple of seconds,usually thats during cutscenes though

 

[Geekosaurus]

Complain to my friends about how long it's taking to load.

 

[Stormz]

I wait for it to load. If it's gonna take a while I might get a drink.

 

[strum4h]

I have a zippo that is empty but still useful for clacky noises.

 

[Nwabudike Morgan]

Send more hooch down the hatch.

 

[AlternatePFG]

Tap on my desk, throw something up and down to catch it, usually a ball or something. I get bored.

 

[skot205]

Solve the Rubik's Cube
My computer runs on two hamsters called Arne and Bjarne so i have plenty of time

 

[PurplePlatypus]

Scratch my nose since there really isn?t time for much else. Not on half-life 2 anyway. I?ve had slightly longer loading screens but again they don?t take long enough to actually do something.
