What do you guys do during loading times?

[linkzeldi]

I sing the loading song.

"It's loading, It's loading, Loading Loading Loading, Just keeps on loading."x infinity.

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

I do that during life's loading times.

 

[Atranis]

I sigh, lean back in my chair, look around. If it hasn't finished loading by then, I just stare at the screen blankly. The only game I have which takes a while to load was Oblivion but I found the loading bar entertaining to look at for some reason so I didn't mind.

Depends if I'm playing on a console or a computer. If it's computer, I usually just wait, twiddle my thumbs, or as another user so eloquently said said...

Masturbate.

If it's console, I usually check the forums to see if anyone posted something new and interesting.

The only long load I get in HL2 is for the Animated menu, other then that though they aren't that long. During a long load I may pace back and forth, listen to some music, or go grab something to drink. Or if I'm feeling especially unproductive, just turn on the free scroll on my mouse and send it spinning.

Masterba..... NO actually I eat or listen to mp3's

 

[WaywardHaymaker]

I wait. And occasionally say "LOADING..." in a robotic voice.

 

[Mariakitten]

Draw manga in my sketch book.

 

[gabe12301]

I stare at the screen blankly like a zombie.once I got drool all over my keyboard from that.

Longest load times I have come from DragonAge Origins, maybe its because I know how to maintain a computer.

If your load times are long enough for you to partake in a separate activity, and have that time be well spent, ur doin it wrong.

 

[MEEBO17]

get something to eat

 

[superbatranger]

Masturbate.

I mean it's either that or get up and go outside, throw a barbecue, fall in love and get married and have kids before I start the next level.

Must....not....laugh.

OT: I just wait. It's not like they take a long time.

 

[antipope]

I read mostly.

 

[emeraldrafael]

Read a book.

Yes, I'll wait till the laughter subsides. FInished? No, well, continue, i can wait. Oka, all done now?

Yes, I read a book, i know, its a dead media, but during school years, I can multitask. Plus, its always enjoyable.
