You know you're addicted to PC gaming when....

...when you wake up your wife when you are sleeping because your feet are still working the gas/brake/clutch pedals long after your evening of playing NASCAR Racing 3. (true)

...when you hear about a game you've been waiting for ever to hear about (STW2 anyone) and are so giddy you cant goto sleep.

...when you look out your window and go pfffffft Ive seen better graphics.

OK this one is really realty terrible and happened like last night. Lately I have been playing a lot of online diplomacy and its obviously affecting me. I was talking to a girl at a party and in short I asked her to support move me to her friend

...when you have flashbacks of your best killstreaks in Modern Warfare 2 (last night was my recent 33 killstreak, no nuke unfortunately) at the worst times (shouldnt elaborate further)
...when you have very serious and long deliberations about whether to play KOTOR 2, Morrowind, or Fallout 2
...when you start to wish trees could talk like Harold (FO1,2,3)

When you wish real-life was like San Andreas/Sims where you go to the gym for the day and you come out looking like the Terminator.

When you type "up down left right left right a b select call" on your phone wanting to unlock the real-life versions of the cheat console.

When your walking in the countryside and your scouting for a good position for your cavalry.

For me, it's definitely when a game starts appearing in my dreams that I know I'm addicted to it. I don't know how many times that's happened to me, but it's gotta be in the hundreds for sure.

i have something similar: whenever you walk down the street you are constantly looking around for cover and the best vantage points to shoot from, and are on the alert for snipers.

BWAHAHAHA

I'd say when you're playing and someone starts talking to you, when they are finished you intergrate stuff from your game into your response.

Or when you actually can't go to sleep and think about how cool you just pulled something off for THIRTY MINUTES TO AN HOUR. Happens to me all the time...

happens all the time. i often have recollections of my best game on MW2 that night before i can sleep, for around an hour or so.

Often when I am playing an interesting new game I will think about my game and map out strategies for when I play the next time before/while going to sleep. They are normally quite successful too.

My dad say he does his best thinking while he is asleep, so perhaps it's genetic.

**Centurion1** · 06-24-2010, 04:14

Ok this diplomacy thing is ridiculous.............

this is another girl anecdote.

when your dancing with this girl my cousin introdices to me from california at a party and you seriously take a moment in the song to check your internet capable phone to see how the last phase went.

im disgusted with myself.

Wow. NASCAR Racing 3. I still have it here, full packaging and everything.
And once I was so crazy I've completed a full race, something like 400 laps.
