Is it normal that i'm a girl and...

that I used to be obsessed with COD. I would play it all the time until people started thinking it was weird that I was playing video games 24/7. Plus, the games started effecting my everyday life. For example, I would think to my self when I enter a new room, "FLASHBANG THROUGH THE DOOR!" Or, whenever I accomplish something I think, "achievement unlocked." And, sometimes randomly I think, "Enemy UAV is online!" Then, when I do something wrong I think, "We may have lost the battle but not the war." Lastly, when I see people on the street in the distance, my instinct is to take up my scope so I could kill the bastard. I don't know it's seems like COD has become a second nature and I don't know what to do.

    LOL that's hilarious. I'm a chick and I play COD alot.

    Me and my friends joke about things like being on a death streak when we're having a bad day. Or a killstreak on the opposite. And if something retarded or bad happens we say we just got nuked LOL.

    It appears you've become a well trained COD machine! I wish my girl would play FPS's with me... Don't fret tho. If these thoughts are bugging you throughout the day I suggest you begin to practice breath awareness meditation which has helped me in the past with a repeating thought pattern similar to you COD phrases but it may not work if you continue to hear them all day as you play COD.

    i did this with counterstrike back in tha day. it was way more twitchy reflex in that game so it only came on when i was excited. WoW ppl do this too only its way more hilarious because the depth and complexity of the game allow you to relate to life easier. like i used to give myself this aura called chaos (i think it really exists) it increases my chance of encountering bad things by 10%. my friend kyle is a tank that uses taunt because every fight he is in everyone targets him first and he has a goddam chin of steel. his dog duke has a disease buff because he looks like a zombie(no joke he almost died once and he lost all his hair we dont know wtf it is)

    haha, thats kind of funny.
    its normal, if you play something so much it'll be stuck in your head. nothing wrong with it.
    it'll go eventually.

    It is normal in the way that you are adapting yourself to the environment that is a video game, if you want to get rid of it: When you think of sniping someone just don't make a fuss of it, and I mean in your head, don't panic, just discard it.

    Also this happened to alot of the veterans in war.(I mean the real ones)

  • Lol, you'd probably whip my ass on COD. I think like that sometimes, not so much now, but a fair bit. Then again I'm a dude. Nothing wrong with it I guess.

    i got the same thing from playing Crackdown. Its a game where u play a supercop that can jump really high, climb buildings and have super strength. I used to be walking about in real life and see a building and think " yeah, i could just jump up, grab that window ledge, jump over to the drainpipe, climb up, grab those bricks and then be on the roof". lol i would actually plan out how to climb he building, even though impossible for a human being to do

    bostonhelper - fuckin A right!

    and missy, its perfectly normal

    i had that 3 years back.. i still got some of that violent blood in me, thanks to the GTA series

    " Lastly, when I see people on the street in the distance, my instinct is to take up my scope so I could kill the bastard."

    totally me a few years back.. i would always fantasize blowing up a few of my college campus' buildings using a bazooka. lol
    and firing out a MG-42 at coming students at the gates. it was funny i also imagined that i always ran out of ammo very quickly
