Question 5: Reveal your tales of gaming drunkenness

We spill our guts in the third segment - what have you got?

And do remember that you can't consume alcoholic beverages until the ripe old age of 21, when you're already in your third year of college, been voting, able to own a gun and have all the sex you want since age 18.

Be responsible in your posting.

There's another question we ask in the second segment that only the bravest of the brave will dare answer...

Well, here in Europe the drinking age is lower.
Never been drunk, but i am sure 12+ hours of battlefront would count.
Nuthin like a laser-hangover.
PS i had to do it

In addition to the one I lay out in the podcast (up now!), I also went through a large chunk of Sly Cooper while intoximicated. Some boss that throws buttons at you like Parappa the Rapper. Very hard to do while drinking.

Last new year, my cousin and brother were over and I decided to amaze them with the wonders of modern gaming, since they "grew up" and havent played since days long since past. So Im showing off GTA IV, and though Im a driving pro normally, I found myself driving into civilians more than usual. They both started givin' me guff, so I told them to do better (We were all smashed btw) and they quickly learned that I am superior at all things involving prostitutes and the killing thereof, even whilst on the sauce.

Well I'm in Belgium, where Beer is legal from age 16 + and everything else 18 + (I'm 18).
So last week I got home after grilling and drinking with a couple friends, and decided to play Pixeljunk Eden, just for the kicks. Nothing crazy happened, but
blurry vision + flowing level design = not getting off the ground (and nausea).

A lot of our audience is young, so it makes me sad.
:[

But yeah I have a story of being, we are just gonna call it "drunk"
And it's happened on several occasions, Geometry Wars, Castle Crashers, Street Fighter, Doom, countless.

But they were all amazing, and lulz ensued.
Looked like I was doing good, not so much...wasn't really.

I'm only 15, but I once played Garry's Mod with a drunk internet friend. He made the mistake of telling me a couple days before that he is horrified of hunters. So I made invisible hunters.

I don't drink, but I will say this - watching people try to play Rock Band while under the influence is hilarious!

all these "drinkin' and gamin'" stories are pretty boring, but i think it's because of a pretty bad thread topic.

one time, at a house party, we played tandem guitar hero (one person on strum, the other on buttons). it ended horribly and someone, (a friend of the guy whose house we were at) got hit in the back of the legs with the guitar controller.

besides that, i don't have a lot of drunk game stories, since i'm not that big of a drinker. but i have a lot of stories relating to gaming and activities of the "herbal persuasion". do those count?

I don't drink, but have been to plenty of parties where booze and gaming were intertwined.

My cousin's birthday, 15 guys, 7 girls, 1 designated driver. I think I put more miles on my car that one night than the previous 364 days I had it.

Most of us were just sitting back talking and one of my cousin's friends, 'Jaba' noticed a SEGA Genesis, and commented that is was a horrible system, and can't compare to the 360/PS3. He had been pounding Jeager. Anyway, we decided to hook it up, and Steve, my cousin, grabbed... Wait for it... NHL '95! Probably the best hockey game EVER!

In the second period, I noticed 'Jaba' wasn't playing anymore. I looked over, and the dude was O-U-T.

First, I tied his shoe laces together. Kid stuff, right? Well it gets better.

I took a knife and split the outer seams of his pants, revealing the hairest legs I've ever seen.

So I get the idea to wax them. Me and one of the girls ran to the store and bought a waxing kit.

(To be continued)

As the wax was heating up, I decided to not wax him completely, but to wax words into his hair. On his right leg, ****. On his left, BITCH.

Then, for giggles, split the inseam of his pants, and tied the ends together.

After that, everyone is laughing and I figued, if his legs are that hairy, his back must be too. So, we pulled his shirt off, and we were greeted by the black forest, front and back.

So, we waxed and arrow pointing down on his chest. No real reason. Then we rolled him over and waxed SEGA RULES! on his back.

Me and Steve get 'Jaba" into my car and take him home.

Two days later we get together and go to the batting cages at Scooters and 'Jaba' is pissed. We spent an hour talking him down from beating the crap out of us with a bat. I asked what he thought of the one on his back and he got this shocked expression on his face, and me and Steve just started rolling.

Who hasnt wanted to go for some guitar hero or rock band while drunk? I would say its more fun trying to play drunk than just for fun.. you have the song playing in your head and you see the notes coming down the screen but its all blurry and you hit the notes way too late.. i was hanging out with my friends (everyone was drunk) and we just passed around the guitars trying to get as high a score on through the fire and flames.. after multiple tries for each person and like an hour later, i dont think anyone got over 50,000.. of course i dont remember much more from that night..
