Playing any PC game using my drawing tablet instead of a mouse.
For some reason it really works for me.

What strange things make you play better?

Someone else said sleep deprivation, I'm the same way. I'm a chronic insomniac and the worse my insomnia gets the better I play. Also I seem to be better at most games when I play them without people around watching me. It's like when you figure out you can do a trick, but whenever you try to show it to someone you fuck it up...yeah...kinda like that.
Things that help me play are, pretending to be the guy im shooting and saying his thoughts in a stupid accent like "Duh, me heavy, me no need to protect head, snipers like me"
Or sitting extremly uncomfortable like upside down on my shoulders.

I usually start off trying to be relaxed, after a while of still failing I just break and start really going over the top, swearing at the game, running into rooms full of guards with no concept of subtlety and sometimes even forcibly killing my character a few times. After that I naturally calm myself down instead of trying to be calm and I do a lot better.
I play heavy metal so loud that the downstair's lights start shaking.

I've gone farther and it made me much better in gaming. I just looked like I have a fetish for COD4 (I don't as far as I know). Luckily no one was around.Jumplion post=9.69411.660029 said:
If Im playing smash bros and the screen is getting crowded/hectic, I may lose track of myself. When I manage to pick myself out of the crowd 5 secs later, Ill be untouched and will probably have taken out an opponent or two.
Edit: Also, to the games plus sex thing, I never realised it but one time my girl started giving me oral, I played much better for like 30 seconds before I realised how much of a twonk I was being, turned of the game and... you figure it out.

I'm invincibe in almost any online game if I play it the second I wake up. Also, I play shooters much better when my friends are on the opposite team, like if we play COD4, in a team deathmatch I get barely any kills with my friends there, but if they are on the other team I'm virtually guaranteed to be top of the match. I don't know why, I just do.
If it's a sports game (Madden, NBA2k), gotta have the metal cranked up w/ the game sound turned off. Anything else - some distraction, like talking on the phone, lets my instincts take over instead of over-thinking things.
Actually having batteries that have a charge.
Keeping the T.V. plugged in.
Having the disk in the disk drive.
Y'know, that sorta thing.

Yea...
On CoD 4, i do pretty well everything considered, no matter what weap i use...
But when i'm tired (and i mean leaning back in my chair, shoulda been asleep hours ago tired), and i use the machine gun... I can snipe with it (using the iron sights, mind you), i can charge 3+ people on the other team and come out on top, i generally do so well that i double the person in second place's score and everyone starts yelling "Hax!"
It's good fun, albeit bad for my eyes
