You know you have played too much of a game when...

[A-Heart-Of-Gold]

So simply tell me when you have realised you have played too much of one game.

For me it is when I was walking to work yesterday and I was constantly checking windows to see if there were snipers around. Proof I have played too much of Black Ops.

...you die from it. Like so many MMOers before me.

I was taking the bus down town, after a session of playing Motorstorm Aplocalypse, and I was getting frustrated because nobody was using their boost.

BOOST DAMN IT!

BOOST DAMN IT!

That has happened to me many times after playing GT4 suddenly 60 is too slow and I contantly think I should be in a car going 100+

By the way I can't drive so I haven't really been speeding due to GT4 I just keep telling people who are driving to go faster!

I saw Team Fortress 2 Achievements in my sleep.

...When I finish it in one sitting.

Boy, yeah. That's when I know I've had enough.

That's really it. I don't get any strange real life impulses after gaming.

I'll be home. Alone. It's quiet, I'm reading a book, maybe eating a sandwich, and then...

Video game music. Faint, like it's coming from next door, only my neighbours don't play games.

I can never quite shake those echoes of video game music.

Also sometimes I hear the beeps of the engineers sentry gun from TF2.

 

[Superior Mind]

I played a lot o BF2 back in 2005-06, I would check skylines for silhouettes of snipers and look for cover whenever I heard a helicopter. Thankfully I decided to stop playing it so much.

You realise the one you're sleeping with left your appartment without telling you..

 

[Trogdor1138]

*see person walking dog*

SONIC BOOM!

 

[Miles000]

I hear video game music and sound effects everywhere.
I always move between cover. I play with nerf to much. All I think of while working/driving/anything else is video games. Or recently one other thing.

 

[Lilitu]

I know I have played too much of a game when I dream about it.

In vacation I have dreamt that I found a way to revive Aerith from Final Fantasy VII But that was yeras ago.
I had also other dreams of games, where I dream-played all night long but it wasn't fun but more exhausting and sometimes disappointing (when I achieved something in my dreams I didn't in the real game).

Somewhen when I was younger I wondered why I couldn't get in all those houses in the neighborhood to see if there where some kind of treasures...in chests or elsewhere^^;

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Any time I see the letters "T" "O" and "U" anywhere, in that order, with any amount of spacing or other letters between them (I speed-read)... anywhere I see them sets off the same trigger in my brain. It shouldn't be hard to guess what that trigger is.

 

[ABLb0y]

I see a little girl, and half expect a prompt to appear saying "Adopt" and "Harvest"

 

[Mr Pantomime]

Today I was looking through the package numbers at my work. One of them was HM01, so I wrote "Cut" beside it. I hope noone notices. Awkward conversation.

 

[ilspooner]

When you are walking and you see some little flowers, walk over to them, and see if the little hand symbol appears so you can use them for alchemy. In my defence, I was tired, and daydreaming about stuff.

 

[Count Igor]

Everytime I close my eyes I see the damn Kleer jumping at me..
My god, they're the worst damn enemy in the game. I prefer MENTAL, with a Highlander and some titanic Lava Beings than a horde of Kleer... And they're EVERYWHERE! AAAARGH!

Move to Canada. Seeing 100kmph signs makes you think you're going fast...and usually the traffic speed is 115-120kmph. It's much more satisfying than seeing 60mph...it feels like...60% speed or something.

 

[mechanixis]

After long sessions of Saint Row 2, I'd see nice cars in intersections and think, "I should jack that car before the light changes and store it in my garage."
