Yep, both video and board games. You ever play a board game in your sleep... do you know how odd it is to think of the purchases you made or the moves you did in a virtual game... not even reliving the prior board game you just finished. It is weird.

Dungeons and Dragons Online
BF3
L4D2

That I can remember. BF3 dreams were exciting, L4D2 dreams had me awake in a sweat. Thats why gaming is better than drugs, your HtE coordination improves and you still get to live in another world.

Battlefield 1942.

Played it all the time 10+ years ago. Probably about 25 hours a week. Haven't played a single game that much since.

It was one of the last FPS games where skill mattered the most. Then Call of Duty and the clones ruined everything.

The answer is yes, but I can't recall any specifics. It hasn't happened in a while (but within the last year or so).

I was playing Candy Crush a bunch when it was hot. I left and went to work out where all I could see is candy everywhere.
