'Take that you stupid blue clothed guard!!!'
'HA! can't raise your gun fast enough!!!! STTUPIIIIIDDDDD'
'DIE!! DIE DIE DIE'
'I shot him in the bulls! HA!'
Just one of the many quotes I have heard in my time and many hours of playing Goldeneye with friends and family.
Outbursting! Its lovely isn't it, some of the things we hear people say when they are playing games, or some of the things we even say ourselves... sometimes it just slips out.
I remember playing Kingpin and getting shot a lot of times because the enemy had attacked without me being aware of his appearance behind me... with health rapidly falling down I changed weapon to the flame throwing.... turning around and unleashing a flame which engulfed the stature of the thug, screaming he ran around burning, I was laughing.. infact I was cackling and shouting terrible words which can't be repeated even after the second watershed.
Wow... what an effect games have on us, sub-consciously we are actually trying to feel what are character is going through, and we react when he dies or gets hurt...
Every game we play brings a new kind of power and feeling depending on the character... while playing Soul Calibur I grit my teeth when I swing the huge various weapons... hoping to hit and deliver damage!
What is it that allows me to do that?
The way I have been brought up in society might have much to do with this, violence is a bad thing, but when I get the change to hurt or deliver pain in non-reality I take it with pleasure, I find nothing more fun the repeatedly shooting a guard in Perfect Dark, the scream and you reply with a few more shoots! Everyone has it though, everyone has this side in them, even girls.... they ourburst with a scream when they are shot and most times they even begin to shoot back and laugh and cackle...
...I just feel that one of the best parts of social gaming is actually the outbursts of others.... I don't want to think into it too much more, it may ruin the games I play next, maybe I really am a crazy person on the inside (pb.. you should find that interesting)...
Next time you are playing a game or next time you watch someone playing a game.. just think about the sub-conscious level of thought.

Excellent. I did a similar thing with Goldeneye to raise money,

I heard enough swearing in one day to last me.
Actually, someone did something like that at my academy, maybe it was you... Not likely though.

I suppose it's like friendly banter during a football game, or when you shout "Shoot you ******* *******!". Of course I don't like football, so I wouldn't know but some games are capable of gripping their audience enough that you empathise or get too excited. Some RPGs are good at this since you can try to make a character based on you or be a character that is nothing like you. Either way though you make all the choices and it's like actually being someone else. It's the same with most games really and it really can help a game if it makes you feel like you are the main character rather than just some strange puppeteer. Though puppeteer can be fun too.
Question is, where does the waffle come into your post?

I'm holding 4 player Quake 3 tourneys for Charity Week at school. It should contain much the same thing, especially if I'm playing ;-)
