Believe it or not , I played Max Payne continously for 11 hrs during my study holidays for the Semester exams.
And guess what happened. That semester's aggregate still rankles me.It reduced my consolidated percentage which would have been pretty decent otherwise.That's how that game affected me.
GTAIII didn't make me mad but MOH AA did. I love that game so much that I still have those mp3s played on my PC, Music Player and our car.
Half Life was another great game.Mafia too.
Now for the first time I went Racing with NFS HP and was suffering from sore fingers ,after all for those gold medals.

My 2 records...

1. Chatting from 10am till 11pm.. non stop... skipped lunch too! and the best part is the guy who owns the browsing center bought me snacks that evening as i had not had lunch!!!

2. NFS 3 - Hot Pursuit. My friend bugged me he cud beat me in NFS 3... so we had to prove ourselves. SO we sat at about 3pm, just after a heavy lunch... played non stop till 6:30.... 6:30 in the morning... yep, 6:30 the next day! thats about 15 hours of non-stop playing!! and of course, i beat him :wink:

I too am a game addict.I study in the ninth standard and since I was 7 or 8 yrs old when I got my first video game(the one with the cartridges)I would play basically the whole day running about now and then gettin new cartridges from frens buyin them if i got enough bucks.


When I got to play on the computer the first time in my fren's house ,I took me only three weeks to ask dad and get one for myself.There are only a few things I do on my pc play games ,play games ,play even more games and occasionally do some other stuff like surfing and chatting.

The games I am most addicted am to are Half-Life.I played Half-Life the whole day the first time I got the chance.I would evn wake up at 4:30 in the mornin to get ready and play before school instead of studying.I would'nt stop playing even though my parents scolding me all the time.I only stopped after I finished the game :( :( :( ( I really felt it should have been a 100 or so levels longer)

I love the Aoe series I played it even today.Nowadays even there is hardly a day when i don't paly aoe,aok or aom or I think I can't digest my food. My frens really annoy :evil: :evil: :evil: me when they come in the the midle of one of my AOE games and i never give these cds to anyone coz my cds regularly get lost with frens.I have two copies each of these games .Just In case :wink: :wink:

I play loads of games like delta force 1 to 4,Max Payne,Spiderman,
Counter strike, Unreal Tournament,Quake II(I some even dream of one of these games and most probably wake with a start when i die in a deathmatch or something)

The Ea Fifa Games too Are one of my favorites . I most probably beat the computer even in pro mode after all my practice.(I love playin it over lan with frens too)

I have all the Harry Potter books and love them and the same goes 4 all the Harry potter games not tht I like 'em too much but I am a Harry Potter fanatic.

Nfs like all others I suppose is too one of my favourites.No need for an explanation on Nfs games I suppose.

Ceaser III too is one of my favorite games though I couldn't ever get much higher than architect :( :( :( I love the game none the least.

Cricket 2004 one of my newest games is really nice but its much too easier batting then bowling(I may have learn't a few good shots from the game though)But I still play lot of it.I set such a huge total that the computer doesn't have a chance to chase it.(Just like our team does in the actual game)

Mortal Combat 4 is one of the coolest game I ever played. I especially like the magical special powers and I really hope that I could have used them in real life.

Smackdown 2 is a wrestling game and I like I expect many WWE fanatics love it. The special moves are like the actual wrestlers and the camera angles are great. (I do many of the move to my smaller brother who hates wwe coz of me hitting it)

Chess is another one of the games I play. I like to play chess but I don't get partners play play with as everyone thinks its boring so I play with the computer(I hardly win though)

RoadRash was the first biking game I played and though it was simple but I have played many a biking game since and I still play it once in a while . Moto gp2,Motocross Mania are the other biking games I have played.

Games affect me lots. I do stuff like this in real life:

1) I have a crush (could this be love? Ooh! Ooh!) with BloodRayne and Mona Sax
2) Still hum or whistle the theme tunes of games like The Sims, Max Payne, The Elder Scrolls:Daggerfall (old DOS RPG)
3) Wave my hands in the air imagining I am a spell-caster as in Undying or The Elder Scrolls:Morrowind
4) Like to impress chicks with 'deadly' dialogues a la Max Payne or Duke Nukem
5) Have an uncanny fear for crabs in in the fish market (after playing Half Life)
6) Burst out into uncontrollable fits of laughter looking at some fatsos who look like the character models in Quake 3

(Kidding about the last two if you didn't guess :p)

damn, again late to a thread..

well as far as records go, i once played a deathmatch in UT and got 120 frags! without being killed once! i am a big ut,q3 fan. Nowadays i don't get that much time anymore but if i play it's mostly LMS on cliffhanger, morpheus ,holywater or onslaught on UT2k4. And the effect on me, well.. when i had just got the game in 2000 i think, i'd play it like 6-8hrs a day and afterwards i'd just be slightly dazed and tired. did'nt effect me in any other way.. thank god! :D

well the topic is on how the games affect people. And heres how some of the games affected me. Starting from the recent NFS UG...
Played it day and night and now whenever I go out and see cars (esp Accents, Lancers, Esteems, City VTECs), I keep imagining which vinyls/colors/spoilers would look good. Discuss the same with my bro, who is a hardcore NFSUG fan too.

Commandos days... after crawling through a series of levels and being detected by those Germans, I felt odd when walking in publics and kept looking here and there to see if people would notice me. ehehe.

After UT, wanted to "head shot" many people from my balcony. and there are countless times when I imagined bullet time in public.

Fortunately sanity held and did nothing of the above.(I take frequent breaks during gameplay so that I'm not too depressed) advise you all too to cut down on the continuity (and not the gaming). I really feel shitty after playing a game continuously for more that 5 hrs and not spening time outdoors.

Enjoy life!! 8)
