Ugh.... BARF!!!!

I have become far too old for video games. I just got done playing an X-Box 360, Halo 3 on a big screen TV for LESS than an hour.

...I want to vomit. I've never had a game make me so physically ill by looking at it. That's not to say it's a beautiful game, it's to say that I literally can not take that kind of visual impute. OMG....

*loses cookies*

Admit it, you just got pwnz0red by the AI and couldn't take it anymore, you just aren't leet enough to even consider playing games, and you should have your xbox confiscated so you're never allowed to game ever again



Just kidding, I spend an incredible amount of time infront of a Monitor, and sometikes when gaming it DOES get a bit overwhelming......anyway, thats punishment for being able to afford a big tv - gaming should be done in a darkened room on as small a tv as possible, for that real old school feeling. Also, drink lots of caffeine and don't sleep.

And, waste not want not *eats remains of cookies* yummy

It's not an age thing. I'm only 16, and excessive video games or movies makes me feel violently ill as well. I've been like that since I can remember (granted, thats not very long). I wonder why some people can take all that visual onslaught while others are overwhelmed?

Kontan,

Have you considered seeing a doctor? There are a lot of things that could be causing that, anything from prescription changes, to atypical migraines to vertigo. My mom has vertigo and she reacts to visual stimuli like that.

I get that way with some of the newer video games, mostly games with fairly intense combat, not quite sure why it happens *shrug* I like Mario better anyway

Yeah, I think I had Vertigo a bit. I remember noticing that I was dehydrated when I woke up.
