When, upon seeing real water, you exclaim to a friend, "Wow! That water looks so real!" Because water graphics are iffy...and yeah. He looked at me funny.

Also, once, after playing DDR for most of the day, arrows kept scrolling up my vision and I dreamed about DDR arrows that night.

And after playing Portal. Thinking about how I could get somewhere with portals.

When you do something stupid and then say, "It's alright, I'll just reload." But the eggs are still splattered on the floor and your parents are still glaring at you.

And an Assassin's Creed-related one is that me and my brother plot how to climb buildings by looking for handholds.... We don't try to climb, mind you, but we can theoretically climb every house in our neighbourhood.

When I got a ticktet a while back, and after I was sent on my way thought 'Well, now I can avoid that spot when I reload."

I think that was during my Pokémon marathon.

You know you play too much Fallout when you wake up and look at your wrist and shout out "F*ck where's my pip boy? How am I supposed to equip my armor."

When you get shot in real life and try to 'heal' the wound by eating a hamburger... -_-

When you encounter the NFSU2 dynomo glitch twice in one play session.

Seeing red things and either thinking there's a claymore round the corner, or seeing red things and thinking, "ahh, I could jump off that".

You know you've been playing too much assassins creed when you start categorizing your actions into high/low profile. I always think to myself whenever I am just walking normally: "gotta stay low profile so I wont be detected" and when I run a bit: "going high profile! gotta get away!"

When you're playing an MMO on a laggy connection, then stop playing and instantly think "Oh God, NOW my connection starts working!" or you continue to see the lag for several minutes. (It's happened both ways for me!)
Also, Evergrace related, you see something you can't identify, attempt to draw your katana, then realize using nail thrust would take too much palmira.
When putting on heavy clothes, you think "My defense must have went up."
You've been playing too much SSBB when you see a bat and wonder how far/fast you can launch someone with it.
You've been playing Resident Evil 4 too much when you see a bird's nest in a tree and say "OH! Look! I wonder what will come down if I shoot it." while reaching for a handgun before you realize you're saying it aloud.
In my experience, I know I've played too much Black when I see a car or other form of machinery, I begin wondering how many rifle bullets will cause it to detonate.
I swear I have sooo many more,, but that's all I can think of.

Probably been said a few times but I'm constantly quicksaving >.<
Also I'm consistently glancing down to check my visibility gem after too much Thief.

You know you've played too much Dead Rising 2 when you look around the room, seeing what kind of combo weapons you could make. My favorite one so far is Musket Rifle + Flaming Hot Cheetos.

i was coming home from a field trip for class one day, and as I looked out my window i noticed a truck that was carrying gas canisters on it, and the first thing that came to mind was "which one should I shoot first, for the biggest chain reaction?"

i stopped playing resident evil 5 after that.

I once got so immersed in Mass Effect that I started playing at about 9 in the morning and didn't stop playing (except to eat lunch) until the sunrise roused me and I realized I had spent an entire day playing the game and skipped 4 classes.

You know you've been playing too much of a game when you look at the clock and it's a few minutes after when you said you'd stop playing... WHAT? It's true!

You know you've been playing the drums in Rock Band too long when I knock on your door asking you to stop it.
