Winning a pubquiz, drinking lots of beer from the prize money and then hours worth of button bashing and not knowing how the vaulting horse mini game works.

BEST. SPORTS. GAME. EVER.
 
Drunken Warioware got the cops called out by the neighbors... my friend set records that night on the DK jumping-over-the-barrels level, though!
 
Was on weed the entire time I first played and beat Journey. Haven't played it since, as I don't want to ruin the amazing memories of the experience.

CoD is also pretty great. Feels like your in the shit, man.

Recently been going through Asura's Wrath. The pure anime nonsense is definitely heightened.
 
Came home from a Halloween party last week drunk off my goddamn face. I could vaguely remember making a bowl of noodles and switching on Dark Souls. Next morning I turned the game on to discover I had somehow gotten through the Tomb of Giants and defeated Gravelord Nito.
 
I thought I made it clear that I lacked knowledge in the area? If not, then I shall do so now: I admit my lack of experience when it comes to drugs. It does in any case amuse me how you claim that I was... panicking and freaking out. This is stupid on such a high level. You're just making things up when you go. Your final sentence makes this even more amusing. Hah, you people were the ones calling me a douche; I merely responded in the same manner. Thus, if I shouldn't be taken seriously, then neither shall any of you.



However you did come across as aggressive. And that's hardly denial; I even said that I was curious.

Look. I came to this thread because I was curious and interested. I came in hoping that people would be able to have a mature conversation, but alas, I met (almost) nothing but ignorant, arrogant, insulting and immature youths. The OP is pretty much the only exception; he countered me and answered my question. He acted mature. I'm glad I'm not the only mature human here.

But in any case, this is just a pointless argumentation. Clearly I can't have this kind of adult conversation here so I'm pretty sure I should just leave this thread before someone really becomes angry or whatever. I'll just stay out and leave you guys to it.

If you were truly interested in having a mature conversation, your initial posts would not have had such a condescending tone to them. If you can't remember why people started pouncing on you, let me remind you:

Wow, people here are doing drugs? :X Not only unhealthy, but is that even legal in your country?

If you want to have a mature conversation, let's be frank. You spoke in a condescending manner and you spoke with a clear lack of knowledge on the subject. While I do agree that certain heavier drugs can damage your health, it would be an extreme over-generalization to claim that all drugs do. Weed is not only less harmful and less addictive than alcohol, but it also has a myriad of therapeutic uses. Many hallucinogenic drugs are not harmful to your body. Magic mushrooms are another example of a relatively safe drug (compared to alcohol and cigarettes) which can be immensely beneficial for its users. http://www.foxnews.com/health/2010/10/26/magic-mushrooms-good/

Please do some research before making a sweeping statement calling drugs "unhealthy."
 
Rez on Acid. Area 4's running man nearly killed me in real life though.

Wario Ware Twisted.

The end of Mass Effect 3 while 'can only see through one eye' drunk.
 
But I'm not... God, this is so tiresome. I do not understand where you keep getting all these ideas? I neither can't handle criticism nor am I angry. For the final time: I admit. I lack knowledge of this subject. Your inability to read begins to annoy me. Your arrogance and your attitude astonishes me. What would you have me say? This is absurd. Even after I beg for a mature adult conversation, even after I admit my flaws and lack of knowledge, you continue to act with a ghetto attitude. Your final sentence leaves me puzzled: "... if you must"? Are you saying that I should not leave? First you greatly insult me, when I admit defeat and argue against some dumb accusations and arguments you ignore me and continue to act with a down-looking attitude.

But yes, I'll leave. I must. I have loads of work to do anyway so I won't be able to log into NeoGAF until tomorrow, when this thread will probably be inactive anyway.
You don't have very many friends, do you? You know, there's always the off-topic side if you want to talk about your loneliness.
 
The one time I ever was able to call in a nuke in Call of Duty: MW2 I was altered in a couple different ways. I don't want to say that that's why I was able to do it, but I haven't been able to replicate it since. Funny thing was I was on that really small map with the broken airplane fuselage in the center.

Being plastered during the Mass Effect 3 ending? That shit would be ultra hilarious.
 
Drinking? A good tennis game. Preferably Virtua Tennis.

Smokin'? I loved playing Musou style games ripped. But yeah, Harmonix games, Rez, Lumines and others are super fun! ;)
 
I also love playing Street Fighter when stoned. Makes me all super concentrated and shit.

Now I'm going to play either Dishonored or Forza Horizon with my steering wheel
 
While wasted I get the urge to play racing games or games with cars, drunk driving is fun when you can go 100 mph and crash right into another car or wall without instantly dying.

Now that I think about it, I do play a lot of OutRun 2 when drunk.
 
I tried playing Leauge of Legends drunk once.

Never again. Played with freinds, but still
I started typing like shit

I also thought I was fucking godly at the game
Then checked the stats, I had died 14 times
As Ashe

How the hell do you people play BF3 or CS drunk? Journey, Bastion, Limbo (now I want to replay those drunk) I can understand it being awesome but you are just going to play like shit if the game damands any kind of thinking or reflexes

And Lonley Grey Wolf brings something up, the legal stuff. Why is this allowed if piracy is not? Where is the line? Im all for people sharing stuff here but then why not have a piracy thread? Because it harms out industry? (Now I dont pirate games, honestly.)
 
Recent one and nothing really special, but I had some of the green stuff the other day and was playing New Super Mario Bros 2 with the volume off. I decided to put on my headphones and turned the volume up and I tell you, I've just never experienced Mario music the way I did that night. It was unreal.
 
Spec Ops: The Line drunk. I was supposed to be drinking my problems away, but this game, and its tarnished perception of moral ambiguity... I might as well have watched Sarah McLachlan animal cruelty infomercials.
 
As my roomate can attest, I absolutely cannot play MvC3 high, not that I'm that good sober. My strategy of trying to set Doom's hidden missiles to a beat worked exactly once.

I'm a beast on Soul Calibur or Smash Bros when I'm drunk, however.
 
What have you proven? If anything, you seem pretty intent on demonstrating your lack of experiences in life and that you don't get out much.

Whether that was the intent or not, LonelyGreyWolf did come off as condescending, but this isn't much better if it's implying that non-party animals/straight edge people have no life experience.
 
I'm loving this lonelywolf joke account. It's got legs...

anyways... WAY too many experiences to just pick one. Two that stand out:

1. Cross faded with a big group of friends and somewhat new girlfriend. Playing DOA2 on the ps2 against one of the ladies gal pals who in the middle of the match (naturally crazy outclassed) yells out to baby girl to give her some help cause she is gonna lose. New girl tackles me to my back and starts making out with me as a distraction. Sorry little lady. I'm a freaking gamer. DOA2:hardcore was my bread and butter back in the day. I beat that rizoe by just the SOUNDS OF THE GAME ALONE ... The desperation in her final "No....NO .... NOOOOOOOO!!!" was like sweet honey to my well marinated brain. +1 for life.

2. A different, somewhat scary but alltogether more awesome and intense experience. Tripping balls (acid) with my good friend/dealer in my house. Playing through the first Red Faction. We game for hours and go outside and cause ruckus and then come back and start chilling out and i'm just really starting to peak when homeboy is fixin to pass out. I sit on the bed with my back against the wall while my friend passes out on the other end of the bed. I click start on my ps2 and the screen goes dark to load... at the same time.. the walls kind of go waxey... the edges of trim and my tv and ceiling fan and my hands and my friend and the blankets are all starting to black hole style swirl in towards the blackness of the TV. like hard gravity on my chest and it's almost painful and i have to shut my eyes and then bam. It stops. The title screen is on the TV and the room is bathed in pale blue light and my friend is fine and the walls are still there. Breath. Kind of laugh... chuckled... "God Paul you are losing your fuckin mind. I love this shit..." and back into the game. Select new game. Select Hard. Wait for cut scene and then it happens. Again. Loading screen. Black glass sucking the world into a vicious whirpool which is loud and cold and strong and i'm leaning away from it gritting my teeth with my eyes open this time cause HOLY SHIT ... screen comes alive. Everythings fine. Shooting and killing and carrying on with deforming the fuck out of Mars.

And on this goes. For 7 hours. The next day my friend wakes me up laughing and explains that while I never said a word the entire time he was laying there he would hear the gameplay.. guns and voices and stuff... then the quiet whirring of the disc in the ps2 before a load screen... then a constant THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP which turns out was the back of my head hitting the wall as i shook violently in the darkness until the game would come back and the thumping would cease.

Good times.

Hoo hoo, that's quite the high horse you seem to have there.
 
By chance I got a box of schnapps bottles and a copy of persona 3 & 4. That month was strange.

I'm fairly certain I wouldn't have enjoyed those games nearly as much otherwise.
 
Wow, people here are doing drugs? :X Not only unhealthy, but is that even legal in your country? If not, are we allowed to talk about illegal activities on NeoGAF? Curious question. I know we can't talk about pirating.

Haha, man you are missing out, get really stoned and play some of these games and you will see them in a whole new light.
(Weed is unhealthy, dont be telling a stoner that man.....its not right?.....Its not.)

But on serious note:

Games I love while drunk or to get drunk
  • Call of duty 4+, when drunk and not giving a fuck its fun to death
  • Forza - Wheel and Cockpit view. Like drunk driving without the assholery
  • Soul Calibur 4 - Get a couple friends a couple drinks every throw and everytime someone ducks under a throw DRINK!. A couple rounds and every is too drunk to defend against throws.
  • Gears of War - Horde mode while drunk is hella fun, I used to start all my nights with a few rounds of Horde mode, lowest points passes the controller.

Games I love while stoned out of my mind
  • Blur - Woah this is a trip and a half
  • Bayonetta - If you dont laugh at the foolishness then Marvel at the gameplay you arent high enough.
  • FEAR - Trust me, i know this is a weird choice but play this game really stoned its amazing.
  • Boom Boom Rocket - On the easier settings this perfect for a good head high
  • Prototype 2 - Im not sure if its the same with P1 i didnt smoke and play games back then, but in P2 jumping around while body stoned is a gift from god.
  • Tony Hawk Project 8 - Simple fun is always best when stoned.
 
Probably more enjoyable and more realizing game I played high has too be L.A. Noire.

Enjoyable for the fact I was solving the cases and watching faces like crazy. Getting them right every time whether it'll be doubt or truth.

Realization came night after sober and I played like shit and barely get a lie right.

I mainly made the comment based on the stick LonelyGreyWolf seems to have up their ass.. not just on their view of drugs. With the kind of attitude they have, I'm sure they're missiong out on a lot more things in life.
 
Had a go at BF3 while tripping last week. Never knew aiming could be THAT hard. Next time I'll just stick to the visual equalizer on my PS3.
 
All of them? If I have the time to play video games, I'm unwinding.

Pretty much this. I can't remember the last game I played start to finish without at least indulging a little. Having said that, I discovered somewhat recently that I can get pretty damn dizzy playing an FPS game after having too many drinks.

Your avatar name explains everything. Ha. Just kidding. But not really. I shoot heroin do speed smoke crack and snort a giant mound of cocaine before I game. I smash my head through the TV and pound on controllers until my hands are bloody and raw. Then I pass out after shitting and pissing myself. Every Tuesday. Good times.

High. There was moment during Clockwork Ruins Galaxy when I realized I was having the most fun I'd ever had with a video game.

Thing is, I can't generally do difficult games while stoned. Too frustrating. Like racing games some mentioned earlier...I always end up getting very frustrated.
 
When I'm high and playing RDR, I like to make up little stories or make John Marston act in weird ways. Like for several days in a row I got him drunk and shot out the church's stained glass window in Escalera, getting arrested each time.

I was pretty damn high when I first went through the dead city level in Rage, and there was one part specifically that rocked my ass. I was in a train station lobby when mutants started coming out of the woodwork. I was bobbing and weaving through them, blasting them with my shotgun, all the while faintly aware of this looming threat in the background as this deep bellowing roar chimes in occasionally. Finally, this huge 20-ft tall monster bursts in and starts firing mortars at me, so I have to dodge those while trying to kill it AND all the mutants. Fuck it was so cool.

Also, in Assassin's Creed 2 when you
beat up the Pope and find Minerva, there's a part where she looks at the camera and starts talking to Desmond. I thought she was talking to me.
 
Halo MP drunk but not too drunk with a room full of good people is a blasty blast.

Got high and played Morrowind once. Got too into it during an in game thunderstorm and nearly pissed myself when a loud ass thunderclap happened.

Used to get high and play this game called Plasma Pong, was incredible:

Also Crackdown high is good, like someone mentioned.

I don't disagree if we're to take his attitude as representative of everyone like that, but I'd say that's just as ignorant as what he's saying.

*brofist*

Open world games (RDR in this case) offer that opportunity to "choose your own adventure" wherein you wind up doing things you'd never have thought of otherwise. I used to role-play the hell out of RDR.
 
Anything that involves the possibility of getting lost doesn't work, so more arcade/action games like VanquIsh or Cave's games works best for me. That music in the second stage of ESPgaluda II? Fuggedaboutit. Could go on forever.
