What has gaming done to your body ?

[atomictoast]

Lost weight, bend fingers, higher reaction times, amazing hand-eye cordination, constant black eyes due to staying up all night most nights.

I was an insomniac anyways, so I'd have the eyes without gaming. Gaming just gives me something to do to deal with insomnia.

 

[hazabaza1]

I'm a bit paler, and my typing speed is better than the average non-gamer. Although I do have a tendency to investigate a noise, no matter what it may be.

 

[Zefar]

Well all that has happened is that I gotten a bit fat around the belly. Still I'm rather thin when I stand up.

Doctors did say thou that I had to put on more weight. So I did. Hands, eyes, hearing and such are still in great shape. :3

 

[Bastor]

Well...i actually became more fit...since i play a lot of MMORPGs and i always pick the monk/priest fighter class who always train their body and soul i kindda get sucked into the whole thing and do a whole lot of training each day to be like my chars....and yeah im insane ^^

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

High typing speed, fast reactions, good hand eye coordination. Not too much else.

 

[Lenny Magic]

Very thin, I have a tendency to fall asleep if i sit somewhere for to long and strange red patches on both my hands from using the keyboard and mouse to long.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Not much... well, back when pretty much anything would scare me, and I never watched horror movies or anything, I decided to download the FEAR demo... refusing to believe that a video game could be scary, I played it at about 10 at night, no lights on, home alone... didn't sleep for a week...

 

[Neotericity]

My thumbs are now level 12

 

[historybuff]

My eyes can now shoot lasers.

 

[MetaKnight19]

probably the biggest thing it has done to me is made me fat.
i quit the local rugby team when i was younger because the coach only picked his sons friends, and i wasnt one of them. so i became a bit sour i suppose. so since then, ive spent my weekends indoors playing games. although now im exercising a bit more to make trips to the fridge less tiring /joke.
gaming has also made my memory better for some reason. memorising levels and tracks in games is fine, but its starting to rub off in real life as well, which is cool

 

[gerrymander61]

lol, I play Stepmania with DDR pads. I'm in excellent shape and it's all thanks to gaming

 

[Heeman89]

hand-eye coordination is better I think then it was before, but other then that nothing has changed that can be directly blamed on gaming

 

[USSR]

Nothing really. I see no cons for me =p

 

[The Rockerfly]

-Snip-

Oh if we are continuing with this I can think of a few controllers that are fucktarded

Spoiler: Atari 5200 controller

Oh and finally

Spoiler: Really, really shit PC controller

Don't suppose you can think of any worse?

 

[Cortheya]

On a keyboard, my hands always go to ASWD or well just AWD for just those 3 fingers

 

[The_ModeRazor]

My eyes can now shoot lasers.

You just made me lol.
OT: I have better reaction time and perception, but that's pretty much all.

 

[Benj17]

as with everyone hands are bent to a controller shape, i sometimes wander what life would be like if i had certain in-game abilities (VATS mainly) but my strategic mind has improved due to rainbow six, splinter cell and hitman rather then actual strategy games

but physically not much

 

[mikemart]

fingers always bend against my will... actually i never really payed attention to it since i read the posts.... im a bit freaked out right now... my fingers are mutated!

besides that im physically weak and i believe its killed my ability to dream... >.>

 

[leeloodallasmultipass]

Cardiovascular fitness has gone down the drain.
and My Eyesight is fine, just My Eyes aparantly overfocus causing headaches after long periods of staring at something at same distance (IE Monitor)
