You know your Gaming too much when.....?

[Lineoutt]

1) You walk around with your hands out in front of you like you see on screens of a first person game.

2) When you dream about being in a game as/with any of the the main characters

3) When you turn your wrists you hear a loud crackling

4) You try to look/act like your favorite character

Those are all I can come up with atm but as for general nerdiness youve been using computers to much when:
1) You try to screen grab real life

2) You try to copy-paste text in books or notes on paper

 

[SimuLord]

...when you refer to your backpack as "my inventory".
...when despite what the Mythbusters say you still think burning cars explode.
...when you can't look at a brick or stacked-stone wall without thinking Tetris.
...when you see a mushroom in the forest and want to eat it to double in size (warning: don't try this at home!)
...when you look at a zoning map of your hometown and think "who designed this? It'd never work! Residential zones belong in 6x13 blocks to maximize traffic flow!"
...when you look at someone you don't like and your mind's eye puts percentages on each of their body parts.

When u try and enable VATS in a fight...

 

[Mischiviktus]

More Halo specific, but it will have to do:

"You know you've been gaming too much when your on the toilet and yell BOMB ARMED! Bomb planted."

Had something like that actually happen..ish...

We were in AIT for 13B training, and they yelled "FIRE MISSION!" to initiate a firing mission on a howitzer. Fast forward to the weekend, one of the guys is a little drunk and having sex with a girl in the room adjacent to ours, and we here "FIRE MISSION!" through the wall, and we all replied with the same thing.

-When you see someone you don't like, you think "Judging from the colour they're wearing, which elemental spell would hit them for the most damage"
-When you're mildly hungry, you think "(Insert name here) needs food"
-When you're really hungry, you think "(Insert name here) needs food badly!"

...just in case anyone didn't get the last 2, they're Gauntlet Legends refrences

 

[Ironic Pirate]

When you check your corners in public.


I don't know if any else does it, but I have a tremendous desire to run up and stab anyone facing the opposite direction.

Shit, I shouldn't have been drinking while reading this... This might also work for cs:s

 

[hyperhammy]

A sims related one: "Oh shit, my social needs are down."

 

[Centarius38]

when standing near a window and thinking shit i better move before a charger, charges me off the building

 

[Conman94]

..you run around punching hobos, stealing cars and running over pedestrians for the high score.

 

[bartman675]

when you start seeing the HUD outside of the game

 

[WorldCritic]

When I look at my TV and automatically see a pause menu.

 

[Brandon237]

Mines more about spending too much time on the PC, but whenever I'm not sure about a spelling in one of my exams, I expect a zig-zaggy red line to appear under it =(

I do this too, when I've done a project on word, I am seeing spellchecker for a day.

 

[chstens]

When you scream "OBJECTION!" When you point out a mistake in something someone said.

 

[The Spectator]

When you are actually dreaming about being the main character of the game in your dream!

 

[spadeattack]

When you try and sleep you imagine your still playing the game.

 

[cryogeist]

when you try to put 50 difernt weapons in your bank and or closet or bag
or when your in a fight and you yell "for the emperor and the chapter!"
if you dont get it its warhammer40k related

 

[savandicus]

When your 99% of your dreams involve flying around, shooting fireballs and lightning and generally using your dreams as gaming time.

On an unrelated note, I play far too many games before going to sleep.

On another unrelated note, i was once in a dream trying to work out whether i could succesfully fly fast enough to make it over the atlantic ocean in one night. I woke up midway through this process and immediately thought wtf, before continueing to work out how fast i'd need to fly to be able to do it.

On a third unrelated note, its 3000 miles so you'd need to fly at around 400 mph which is alot faster than i can fly in my dreams. (10 mph is probably my average speed)

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

You don't bring your 360 home for a three day trip and after two hours on the coach you start seeing images of your most recent games like your having flashbacks.

Yeah, I'm really regretting not bringing the XBox with me.

My god, I do this too many times.
