You know you've been playing ... too long when ...

[MakazeX]

The only funny one is Mass effect 2 for me. I ended up adapting a Shepard voice in real life for a while. That's normal? Oh and I remember being spoken too and remaining silent, waiting for the conversation choices to come up... They never did sadly.

And that concludes the only time I will let myself play a game for that long xD;

When I picked up my collectable Vault Boy bobblehead, hoping it would grant me +10 Intelligence.

I once played way too much Vice City over a weekend, then when I got up on Monday I spent a second in that still-half-asleep fuzzyness looking around for a savepoint so I could quit and go to school. Sadly, I didn't find one.

You know you've been playing Assassin's Creed too much when you think to yourself, "Yeah, I could climb that..." whenever you see a new building.

I totally forgot about this one, which is weird since I do it all the time. Whenever I'm in a store, any kind of store, and I walk by the pharmaceutical section, I always pick up an advil or something similar and say " grabbin peels!" no matter who's around.

I always try to activate VATS in other games. Causes me to throw random grenades a lot...

when you pause to go to the bathroom... and learn that you... already went & XO

...Minecraft when you see everything as blocks

I was walking down the street, and it was kinda foggy in the distance. Immediately I thought "Hm, better turn up the draw distance."

I know I've been playing Metal Gear Solid too much when I'm walking around town and I lock eyes with a stranger and hear the Guard alert noise and start to look for an exit.

When you're about to enter the subway and think that it might be best to save before, just in case something happens.

True story.

 

[Wayneguard]

I gave myself vertigo for two weeks after playing fallout 3... it was fucking awful.

 

[w-Jinksy]

when walking along you casually look at your arm expecting there to be a pip-boy attached so you can see where your going, i've done this i stood there dumbfounded for at least 15 seconds before realizing i don't have a pipboy.

Lol a lot of this stuff is pretty severe, the VERY worst thing that ever happened was that I was out shopping with my mum and sister and we'd been in Meadowhall (British shopping mall, fairly big) for like 6, 7 hours and we were almost leaving but they decided to look at EVEN MORE CLOTHES, so while they were looking at clothes, I stared off into the distance for a bit and looked back at them and for a fraction of a second, before I blinked, I swore I could see WoW's HUD in my vision, complete with portraits and health bars and shit.

When you're on a weekend binge of RPGs, emerge from the man-cave and all you can muster up for conversation is...

"Gau? Gau Gau! GAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAUGAU!!!! .......Shiny!"

And keep saying "thou" a bunch of times.

The same thing happened to me and also with Garrus, Joker and Thane. It is like I am trying to replicate them in real life xD

When playing the original Disgaea, fighting Prinny Baal when he was at level 9999.

I was able to steal his armor, surround him with 3 level 9999 characters, boost them, and do 10 million damage in only ONE TURN. Yeah.

 

[kittii-chan 300]

after playing WoW for long time my friend said "hey,can you help me a sec?" and i replied "how many of what do you need killed" he then said "um.. its ok i can do it on my own" he then walked away

I was once convinced that bottle caps are a legitimate form of currency.
