What irritates you the most while you are gaming?

2) when my mother interrupts me (and only me, never anyone else) every ten minutes to do completely assinine chores.

Most certainly agreed. It's guaranteed to happen just as I'm getting immersed in the game.

ditto, my mom has called me 3 times today to ask about my theory test (which I've already texted her about) and every damn time I've been in the middle of a race in first place on Gran Turismo and BANG! come back off pause into a wild spin out starting the whole damn thing again.
On that note though, I hate the way Gran Turismo hates me for winning. No matter what car I'm driving, if I win a few too many races first time, guaranteed I'll have an hour of driving along and spinning out at random. GUARANTEED.

Nazi Zombies. There's always some 14 year old with a high voice "Hey... hey guuuuys, let's glitch. Do you wanna glitch? I know the glitch."

Five minutes later we're being overrun on level God damn three and that jackass is crouching in a corner, until someone has the sense to finally say "Hey dumbass, quit glitching and get to your window or host quits."

And they're the ones who ***** when a zombie gets through YOUR window because you were trying to stop the influx at theirs, which naturally means all you were doing was stealing their kills. While they were on the other side of the room trying to glitch.

Agreed. All this needs is to be in a pub, with a screaming 2 year old in the back ground and loudly talking asian chavs and it's my idea of pure hell.

children online when playing counter strike source- i am in face 15 but i have the decency not to spam the microhpone chat and call everyone noobs because they killed the 10 year old guy who doesnt know how to move.

The mind numbing boredom that will come to be when I return to my house, knowing that the modem had been removed from the building from the house, thus eliminating my LIVE, causing me to be stuck by myself in the world of Tamriel for several months.

Oh wait. That hasn't happened yet.

Probably God-awful cameras. The wriggly bastards.

I actually disabled LIVE for a few days specifically for that purpose: to spend some time by myself in Tamriel.

Back on topic... sweaty hands are very annoying

Phone going off. Vibrate or tone, either way, it's never at a pause screen, always right after.

 

[LimeJester]

People who play music over their mics, or make us listen to whatever conversation they are deciding to have in their room. If I wanted music or a conversation I'd go do that, but no I am gaming instead. No one likes your random obscure music from the 80s and 90s.

 

[Macgyvercas]

People interrupting me when I'm in the middle of an involving task. I try to keep my irritation to a minimum when it's a legitimate interruption, though.

I have 5 things I consider "legitimate interruptions" They are 1) phone call (EMERGENCIES ONLY!!!), 2) someone wants to give me money, 3) someone needs first aid, 4) dinner time, or 5) zombies are attacking (hasn't happened yet, but you never know)

SO TRUE! Or nagging girlfriends

 

[Ren3004]

People coming in the room and interrupting me. Specific case, people commenting about the guitar when playing guitar hero, especially because having to pause in that game is a pain.

 

[RouxBelle]

The guilt-ridden feeling when you've spent a night playing co-op instead of talking to a girlfriend online.

Nope, never done that. Not me, no way. Uh-uh. That would be wrong, so very very wrong. (Ahem)

lol...i did that to my bf once...but then he got on my WoW server and we talked that way...but he teased me the entire night about forgetting to call him

 

[X123Lewis123X]

Wen i keep dieing, its soooo thrustrating!!

 

[necromanzer52]

When I'm trying to play a game and my ma decides to walk in and talk to me/make me do something during an important cutscene and it is always during an important cutscene.

Not quite as annoying but online when people mispronounce my name. Say it with me neck-row-man-zer. It is NOT neecromanzer

 

[zekutsion]

i also hate when my parents interupt me for stupid things and whn thevee done it for the third time that day i ask 'is that all?"and they say yes and then when i almost end the game and am on the unpausable boss level orend cinmatic they iterupt me again and they say 'you can wath it on youtube' and that just makes me want to fucking ***** slap them. also i hate whenn frikking ppl who turn thier volumes on thier boom boxes in thier cars ALL THE FUCKING WAY UP and thier BASS ALL THE FUCKING WAY UP and drive around as if to say 'hey muthafuckas im interuptng your awesome life to show you my ingeniously planed KILL YOUR GAMING EXPERIENCE. god i fucking hate when ppl do that. (not the ppl who do it just when they do it)

 

[Wanocorc]

when two family members come into my room to discuss bills with eachother during a cut scene, why does that happen so often....they aren't talking to me about bills.....they are using my room as a meeting =(

 

[zekutsion]

i nowevery time you pause it unless your at a part where there are no notes coming at you you pretty much have to start over

 

[jenos7]

the fact that i don't have a iron bladder and have to go to the bathroom every couple of mins ESPECIALLY while playing left4dead versus

 

[Pimppeter2]

People telling me to do stuff. Christ! I've set time for myself! Leave me the fark alone!

 

[zombie7775]

When I just start playing a game and then suddenly everyone needs me for something. Seriously this seems to happen all the time ><

 

[ProfessorLayton]

(Precicely why I play online co-op with people that actually have hair between their legs.) No offense to the pre-pubers, but you little twats need to grow up FAST.

There should be some sort of age/maturity limit on mics. If you annoy people, you should have your mic privileges taken away.
