Makes sense to me. I haven't had a nightmare where I didn't go "Wait a second..." and then start blowing stuff up in years.

Ahhh nightmares, wish I had 'em more often.

HOLLYCRAP, I have been able to do that for years. I have always wanted super powers, (To fly and such) and sometimes in a bad dream, I can almost become superman (in a way) and kick ass to whatever is bothering me. (I had a dream once I was eaten by a dinosaur, and then ripped out of its chest Men in Black style. Teach him for eating me)

So gamers are superior than normal people.... Long live the master race!

I'd rather have a lucid nightmare than a lucid dream. Last good dream I had I had won 5 million dollars...and then realized it was just a dream. Made a little bit of me die inside.

well that might explain why a little while back, after playing MW2 for several days at least 3-4 hours a night, I ended up having a dream about headshots... Or the other night I had a dream about infiltrating some place and shooting up a whole lotta bad guys. I haven't had a nightmare in forever. Interesting! Never thought about it but it seems there is indeed a correlation.

Aw those are fun. I had a nightmare were just before I went to bed, I had played way to much Fallout 3, and when I got eaten by this snake monster, so I just loaded my auto save and then use V.a.t.s. to kill him. Never play games till 4 at night while eating choclate. (Your rest and waistline will hate you for it)

Haha nice. Maybe my dream powers will extend beyond the power to wake myself up at any moment. Even if it doesn't, this means games are now (kind of) good for you. You know what this means? My parents lied to me!

How very fascinating. Seeing as how the last dream I had consisted of me and two other friends joyriding around a Mediterranean fishing village before driving off a cliff. Must have been the driving sections from Borderlands.

but started to notice videogames when her son wouldn't stop kissing a Nintendo console after she bought him one.

So that's what the dust flap on my N64 is for...

All I know is:
My dreams are unbelievably great, I get angry for being woken up because they are that good!
i always wake up in the good ones which look so real but i never wake from the bad one early.

Dreaming about the whole school day ten doing a whole school day isn't fun i can tell you

although if think of closing your eyes in a nightmare and you close them in your dream your dream does sometimes change if ya really don't want to see it (i know it sounds weird but it works for me)

I often have quickload function in my dreams. When I realise that shit is about to hit the fan, I just will myself to checkpoint sometime earlier.

Mmm... the point when as a kid I started playing games did happen to be around when I stopped having nightmares. There was that one with the warehouse with the scaffolding and then I owned that skeleton so bad. But I'd only been playing Lego Island and Broken Sword back then... And a few GBA titles I suppose.

i knew it...

my level of nightmares has decreased since i started gaming before bed, i blamed it on exhaustion but maybe its cuz i'm used to controlling a surreal world.. who can truly say? i don't think we can ever understand the human mind.
