wierd things you do while gaming?

[mocruz1200]

like the title says, any strange customs, ways you play, etc?
as for me, when i play spy in tf2 i hum the MGS theme. i feel like i am bieng sneakier if i do.
also (only once) i was playing MGS3 and my mom walked in the living room and asked me something and i went SHSSHSHSHHSHSHSHSH!!!!! in fear that the gaurds would spot me. i immediatelly felt wierd for doing so.
yes, i get very immersed playing Metal Gear games

After playing Fallout New Vegas for 41 hours straight I walked over to my kitchen to cut up some steak and I stood there waiting from the thing saying "A to Take Knife", after 10 mins I was wondering, "CRAP WHAT IF IT TURNS RED?! THEN HOW WILL I CUT MY STEAK IF IT'S CONSIDERED STEALING?!"

Nothing really terribly game related. I mostly play niche-titles like Baroque... but my cat tends to sit on me while I'm playing.

It's particularly thrilling with Six Axis controls in folklore. the cat's been thrown from her perch a few times by the absorb-pulls :3

 

[LawlessSquirrel]

I tap the corners of pillows quickly and repeatedly while waiting out cutscenes and loading screens. If no pillow is available, I get one.
That weird?

 

[Bovver]

Apart from leaning whilst driving I also rock bacwards and forwards while swinging and while playing a sports game acting like I am watching it on tv. Also talking to npc because they are all so stupid.

 

[Estocavio]

Well, i often twitch my fingers while doing things as if i were using a controller, but only during the night.

For example - If im about to open my refrigerator, id twitch my right index finger. Yeah.

I pick at the skin of my top lip where it starts to cruve and you get that little bulge when i think or am in a stressful sitution. but i do that outside playing games too.

Same here.

I also think "That must've taken forever to mine for" when seeing a skyscraper after a Minecraft marathon.

when ever i drive a tank in a game i do the classical music thing with the cannons. da da da da da da da! da! and i fire the tanks cannon for the cannon in the music. like my brother knows when im driving a tank just cause im doing that song.

A bit, usually only if I chew the hell out of them though. They heal very fast.

Oh, and if there's one thing that the Escapist has taught me, it's that you're never alone.

Jerk off

I really just sit there totally immersed while gaming. Boring but maybe interesting at the same time?

Cool.

Oh, another weird thing i do is before every game i play, I always rotate the joysticks clockwise half way, fully counterclockwise, then make a vertical line up to down. Then make one from center to right then to left.

 

[Mr. Omega]

I talk to myself. More than usual anyway...

I tend to pause the game when someone walks in the room, no matter what game I'm playing. I think of gaming as one of the things I see as a "quite, relaxing time". And whenever someone else walks in, the "quite, relaxing" part almost always tends to go away. It's always "Oooh, whatcha doing? What's the story? Is it fun?" So in my feeble attempts to keep the silence, I just stop everything I'm doing. I'd have probably stopped this years ago, except it just seems to almost always work.

Strangely enough, I do that too.

I also (only on consoles) scratch my index fingers on the trigger buttons.

 

[voetballeeuw]

Nothing serious, except in certain rpgs, I try to narrate my characters journey while playing. Filling in the gaps that the story doesn't. Dammit, now I feel crazy.

 

[MrGalactus]

Whenever I see a guy in my face in CoD4 (Which I still play, and if anyone here does, they should join me on Xbox360) I go OOOOO in shock and spam shotgun in his face.
