Depends.
Did I have a dream set in a specific game? I think Mass Effect showed up once or twice, but such things are rare.
Do I have dreams that may as well be video games? Fuck yeah! All the time! Post apocalyptic scenarios, zombie outbreaks, alien infested space stations, insterstellar travel, demonic invasions, and so on and so forth. I love going to sleep - there's roughly a 30% chance I'll get to play one of the best games of my life...

Two recently. One is the Dead Space series. They aren't that scary but the concept of the Necromorphs are. I see myself running and hiding in a supply closet unaware of the vent behind me. I sit gasping for breath on a supply crate, then the head of one of the.....what are they called? Dividers or something like that? Anyway it comes in and starts choking me a second before my head pops ff I wake up and I get the urge to play the games.
The other is my recent DnD campaign. It especially odd since I see myself as my FEMALE tiefling ranger. Very odd, fun, but odd.

One night I had a series of dreams where, no matter what I was dreaming about, MW3 somehow managed to fuse itself into my dream in the most bizarre ways possible. This was especially strange because I have never even played Modern Warfare 3. Oh and I've had Resident Evil invade my dreams once or twice but there is no complaining there because I got to talk to Leon. 
I've had multiple dreams where they involved video games/animes and anything that I played a lot of during the course of couple of days.
It happens quite often and the crossovers between the "genres" molds into something really weird,yet awesome.Too bad they usually end at awkward times because my alarm wakes me up and ruins the whole thing.

when I was in high school I had a bad flu and strangely, one of the symptoms was I kept thinking about Oddworld munch's oddessy. I would try to go to sleep and clear my mind but my brain couldn't stop proccessing this one tough puzzle. Thankfully I was able to solve it afterwards.
I can only remember one that I had after playing Deadrising for about a week. I'm not even going to try and explain it here because this was a few years ago and I could only remember about half of what happened back then. I think I've had several others more recently, but none of them were interesting enough for me to remember for more than two minutes after waking up.
Baldur's Gate. In fact I had a dream where I played through Candlekeep remembering where every single item was in each chest the night before driving down to pick it up (Third time I bought it from memory) and when I woke up I was sad it had only been a dream and that I'd have to wait a few hours befor getting my hands on it once again.
Diablo 2. Obvious reasons. I played the shit out of that game, it's all we talked about for most of year 7 and 8. Brief intermissions where my best mate and I would talk about BG 1 and 2 or C&C Red Alert 2 because everyone else only played D2.
WoW. Need I say more.
DotA. I lost a job because of DotA. And almost lost a girlfriend. In the end I just broke up with her anyway.
So yeah, Blizzard games and BG.
EDIT: And Dragon Age Origins.

The most recent one was a cross between FFVII, minecraft, and LoL. Need less to say it was some odd stuff.
Otherwise plenty of time in the halo forge world.

Funnily enough, last night I had a dream I was playing an online tactical RPG with some people. They left me to fight the enemy alone and I died, and my souls were left on the ground (been playing Dark Souls too much). I was so pissed off, I logged out.
Every single night is some kind of adventure for me. I've dreamt of Runescape, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, of CoD and Battlefield, of AoE, of Team Fortress 2, and I'm fairly certain there are others I'm missing because I can't remember. On an unrelated note, my dream two nights ago involved Eminem being a midget, random invisible objects (garage doors, tractors), my sister, a computer, my house, and some apparently randomly selected shite from before I closed my laptop and went to bed. I couldn't explain its meaning if I spent 8 hours thinking on it.
LOL, even your subconscious rage-quits!Terramax said:
OT: Erm... considering the ilk that frequents this place, 'who doesn't?!' would be the logical response.
Anyway, yes, plenty, mostly concerning one (or both) of my favourite series: Total War; & Assassin's Creed (my love is waning, though...).
Typically, it's taking a countryside walk, cresting a ridge and seeing a battery of Prussian 12lbers fire a salvo at the guys in blue across the valley. I then manage to acquire myself the horse of the last unlucky bastard of a Chevauxleger and make small talk with the Prussian commander who, thankfully, looks nothing like his in-game portrait! -_-
Or, there's a town nearby, I leg it over and start free-running and end up killing some Frenchman.
...
I may have played the next AC game in fact (if Ubisoft ever come to their senses...!)...
Yeah, every game and horror movie I play/watch. Luckily I always win, even in the horror movies.
Yes. on multiple occasions I have had dreams in which i was a cog gear and marcus fenix was singing and i was on a roller coaster near a large black cathedral.
Once dreamt That i was out surveying for resources ala STar WArs Galaxies in the rain. Very weird, very enjoyable, just like the game version
I've had a lot of Left for Dead-style zombie dreams. Not really nightmares, but I'm usually with friends running around and killing zombies. One time I had an Assassin's Creed dream in which a woman was trying to kill me and I heard the "whisper" sounds that play when your pursuer in multiplayer is near.
I've had a Penumbra-like dream multiple times, including last night. even more terrifing when it's yourself being chased.
Same, although in my case, it's been Lumines lately. So many falling blocks...bleachigo10 said:
