Do you tend to do anything weird in Video Games?

I'll give you an example.

For some reason, whenever I see something shiny, I tend to run right towards it. For this reason, in SSBM, when Roy is charging up his normal B attack... You get the idea.

Also... Whenever I have to press A repeately, it's almost as if I vibrate my body, rather than moving my thumb extremely fast. It's scary. I can actually hear my teeth chatter.

You got any weird habits?

In Fire Emblem, I make the same miskate contiuously sometimes (damn RNG)
I sometimes accidentaly hit Roy's up+B move the wrong direcction, so he jumps off.
I have my thumb on the buttons and I pretty much just twitch my arm forward fast to hit the button, I barely ever press down with it.

when I was little I thought that moving the joypad left helped the car to swerve left... but to no avail...

When playing a racing game, I always swerve when the car moves or anything. This is why I can't play Burnout 3 playing down and such.

Also, I will get mad at the game in a multiplayer. It's fun watching me play Halo 2 with a bunch of other people.

I always clench all my muscles in my upper arms and my teeth when going against the bosses in the metroid prime games. Hurts my teeth, and I have to brush them with sensodine toothpaste for a week after. always.Theyre quite intimidating those bosses....

During the Metroid Prime fight, my pinkies start hurting from gripping the controler too tightly.

I always become tense during any major/difficult boss fight, especially if its one I need all my concentration to beat. This doesn't happen too much (except on high difficulty levels), but it does happen.

In every LoZ game, I get really nervous right before fighting the final boss. Like in OoT, I was about 8 or so at the time, and I was actually afraid of Ganon.

I can't bring myself to go easy on my friends in fighting games. The best you'll get from me is about ten practice seconds at the beginning of the match.

EXACTLY THE SAME! No, seriously, I had a friend come over to my house for SCII, and since he was a first timer, and I tend to not give practice, I really whooped him. Of course, he got pissed off, so we switched to SSBM, in which my attraction to shiny things hindered my gameplay. 3nodding xd

For some reason, when I do the "Break the Target" stages on SSBM, I suddenly am reminded of popcorn because one time, I went to a Target store, and I got a bag of popcorn, and I tried it, and I thought it was crap.

I'm a strange little man. crying

Whenever something is timed I pause the game and go into a state of panic before heading back and realizing I had about five more minutes when I reached my objective

Yeah, anything timed sucks. I could have a year to do an objective which takes five minutes and I would carelessly rush through it like a maniac, eyes shifting quickly back and fourth from the game screen to the timer and back.

Heh, sometimes My palms get sick sweaty, and I can never seem to get them wiped off while play Mulitplayers.

That, and when our group plays SSBM, it's pretty funny we forget our watches are on, so one perosn will pause it, and all 4 people will take their watches off at once. :3
