Poll: Do you talk to yourself while gaming?

[MaG iiC 3E]

If you recorded me while I played anything online, you'd think you would've heard someone getting murdered.

Me after I beat Leia in Force Unleashed 2: "YEAH! THAT'S RIGHT! GUT HER! F*&K HER IN THE EYE!"

Mostly swearing. Sometimes it's going through a plan I've got if a game is giving me a fair fight, but the moment I start getting shot through mountains / multiple walls it goes back to the former.

I do remember an impressive string of expletives whilst playing CoD1. It's far too offensive to post here though. Something along the lines of "Oh my &%$£ £$%^"$%^ ^%$&£* %@$*£*"&% £*$*^($£ ^*&&$*££&"% *"£& %^&$*£ God".

Sometimes MST3K commentary is needed. Sometimes, it's "WAH! What the hell was that?". And sometimes it's just yammering on about stuff. It's pretty random.

 

[garfoldsomeoneelse]

Sit with me when I'm playing Halo/Call of Duty/Battlefield and you'll learn all sorts of creative new profanities.

 

[ZombieGenesis]

Oh god yes, all the time. I do running commentary for absolutely no purpose.
And I swear a lot, especially on a particular last boss I must have died some 20 times too... funnily enough, when I DID fix a problem that I blamed my failure on, I won first try.

 

[EllEzDee]

I swear if it's something ridiculously stupid.
I'll answer a question if it's ridiculously stupid.
I don't mutter, though i do mutter to myself in my head. I think i'm halfway to being insane...

 

[Wolfram23]

Normally, no. Except to express rage or confusion in the utmost "WHAT THE FUCK!?!"

However since I started recording gameplay I'm making a conscious effort to speak.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Sure do. I also sing along to my music, if it's fun. Or gripe at people.

 

[BreakfastMan]

I actually do that all the time. Most of the time I do a MST3K style running commentary as I play the game. I do not know why I do it. It has kind of become an unconscious habit to do when playing the game.

 

[Light 086]

Yes I do, I do it even when I'm not playing games. I'm not crazy. I know no ones there, I just have a tendency to mumble to myself... out of earshot of course.

 

[Evilsanta]

Yeah. Mostly profanities when it's going bad or evil insane laugh when on a killing spree(May only happen on TF2...But still).

Or the age old one: Come one!

 

[YukoValis]

Of course not... I talk to the game.

 

[ChippedShoulder]

I do it way too much.

"No....no, see that bullet WOULDN'T have hit me because I had alREADY rounded that corner and he was a f*%$ing mile AWAY..."

I'm the sort of person who's always complaining to himself about something that shouldn't have happened. Funny enough, like most people I do it less if I'm winning already.

Pretty much got me quoted word for word there. It's why I don't play online much anymore. Except on the Dead Space 2 multiplayer where I get my weirdest... comments.

After a Lurker execution: "Yeah! Kill him! NOM ON HIS FUCKIN HEAD!"
To my friend, while playing as Humans: "You like playing Necromorphs? Meh, I prefer Humans, I guess I just like killing things."

Fun times

 

[C95J]

I always just quietly mutter to myself whilst gaming, don't know why, I just do

I am still trying to convince myself I have not gone insane.

 

[The Wykydtron]

Only if i'm doing badly or if there's a particularly douchey boss.

Or if i'm playing Batman Arkham Asylum... The amount of bat related puns i've said while playing that game...

"quick use the bat anti thing spray!"

Also in any Phoenix Wright game, i will insult the witness and prosecution many times per trial.

Objection!

*music continues*

FUCK!

[sub]How was it not the crime scene photo?![/sub]

 

[Codor]

Yep pretty much all the time.

 

[Schmutz]

I'm trolling over npcs, all the time.
