You know you play too many video games when...

[MrShowerHead]

You know you play too much Call Of Duty when someone throws you a ball, you see a grenade indicator

 

[Zeema]

you see a small plane in the air and yell 'Enemy AC 130 Above' or 'UAV is Online'

Your girlfriend has grown to ignore it completely when you're next to her roaring about lag and knifers.

Or when your husband waits to be told he can come to bed because you have Reapers to stop...

When your computer wallpaper and your ringtones are game related.
*looks down at phone playing Legend of Zelda theme*
FUCK!

Ringtone - Gateway To Destiny, Eternal Darkness
Message tone - Dancing with Domz, Beyond Good And Evil.......................

When you spend the time that you aren't gaming on gaming sites checking to see what games are coming out.

*is also guilty of this, yet with both anime and video games*

Currently - Romeo x Juliet wallpaper, although I frequently shuffle in FFX, FFX-2 and Mass Effect
Ringtone - Shion scream from Higurashi (when I have a phone. I want to horrify people at random!)

You know you've played guitar hero too much when you start tearing your balls off because it's less painful than losing to the same song for the 1000 time on a game you've spent over 2 years trying to beat

I've only just passed "eating your own hand". Can't wait till i get to "smash the TV".

Give it 2 weeks
Ripping your own testicles off comes very shortly after
Then the game may allow you to finish the song
Good luck buddy, you'll need it

 

[lighto]

You know you've played too much TF2 when you are at a store and you read 'sandwich' as 'sandvich'

 

[no_more_usernames]

You've played too much assasins creed when you can see Etzio jumping around the buildings in your city

You know you haven't played enough assassins creed when you spell the protagonists name wrong.

You know you've played too much Assassins Creed when you can pronounce "Ezio Auditore Da Firenze"

 

[Ldude893]

-When you start dreaming about them.
-When you start seeing the interface for the games you play in real life.

 

[shadyh8er]

You played too much Resident Evil 4 when:

-You kick someone you've just shot in the head.
-Your first guess when you don't remember a girl's name is "Ashley." (Guilty as charged!)
-You think time stops when you heal and switch weapons.
-You get a job as a cashier just so you could ask "What're ya buyin'?"
-Your first guess when guessing a short person's age is 20.
-People with abnormal breathing send chills down your spine.

You play too much Legend of Zelda if people are warned not to say "Hey! Listen!" around you.

You play too much games in general if you hear the "Achievement" sound every time you do something noteworthy.

 

[Cheesepower5]

When random TV programming makes you hear 8-bit coin sounds and other assorted bleeps for no apparent reason.

 

[CleverCover]

You know you play too many RPG's when you define clothing in what stats it would give you.

 

[Lula21]

Your girlfriend has grown to ignore it completely when you're next to her roaring about lag and knifers.

You know you play too much Final Fantasy XIV when you dump your girlfriend for someone in-game who lives on the other side of the globe.

Needless to say, I've had a bad week.

A little extreme maybe, but perhaps it's understandable? Was the previous girlfriend against your gaming? Sometimes we can have more of a connection with people who understand and support our hobbies, interests and things that make us happy!

Um, I was the girlfriend.

I supported his gaming, since I play a lot of video games myself. I guess I should have said something once he let MMOs take over pretty much every waking hour of his day but I didn't want to seem like a nag. My mistake.

(And no I couldn't have played it too, I didn't have any computer that could handle that game.)

 

[dark_mist34]

You know you play too much fallout when you
consider what a 200 year old frozen dinner would taste like
you search every thing for bottle caps

 

[Silvertongue]

You know you've been playing too much Fire Emblem when you close your eyes to see little characters moving around in lit up squares. Sadly, this has happened to me on multiple occasions, starting at age 13. I was an addict.

 

[Torrasque]

- You know you play too many WRPGs when you spend well over ten hours on just the create a character screen.

*playing Oblivion*
"Sweet, now that I have my character done, I can actually start playing!"
*looks at clock*
*Two hours have gone by*
"FFFFUUUUUUUU-"

You know you play too much Zelda when you think eating hearts will give you life.
You know you play too much when a real life liquid reminds you of a potion/elixir/flask/etc. more than the actual substance (although, drinking fruit punch that you think is red potion from Zelda, is more satisfying)

Mother fucking Fire Emblem!
I had a 8 month addiction to the first GBA one.
I beat it on every difficulty, got every character to lvl 20 x2, and got everyone's "relationships" to max.
Whenever I play any Fire Emblem now, the music will ring in my ears for a couple hours afterwards.

You know you play too much Fire Emblem when, you can hear the music that plays while you are taking your turn, in real life...

 

[Sovereignty]

You know you play COD too much when,
Every time you see a ledge you check it for snipers...
You try and knife that random person that turned the corner as you did...
You yell, "Stop hogging my window" when someone is over your shoulder.

You know you play Madden too much when,
You chuckle during a real game and say, "You ran the slant route wrong."
Get so aggravated that the offense on TV didn't audible when the blitz was coming.
Your online franchise makes it 10 years.
