does anyone do this?

Post by Nails »

Ive been playing bioshock the past few days, and this is the worst game for me doing this weird thing, when im looking round the room, wether it be for baddies, money, guns etc, im leaning forward in real life, and moving my head to suit what im doing in the screen, afer a few hours i havent half got some cramps, i lean abit when playing racing games side to side, and cod etc i duck and that when im getting carried away, but i cant stop myself from doing it, and im normally a very disaplined person

is it because i never played games as a kid and have only really started playing them since i got the xbox 13 months ago, i had game consoles before but never spent much time on any of them

it tends to be people who havent really played before IMO.

try giving your mum or dad a game pad.



my girlfriend plays the odd game but she cant grasp the whole left stick for walking and strafing, right stick for looking thing.

My head generally stays freakishly still when I'm concentrating.
My hands on the other hand.....

I twist, turn, extend my arms and all sorts when I get carried away.
