So today my mom came over today and I hooked up my Nintendo 64 for her so she could play Banjo Kazooie.
I always got annoyed as a kid when I would watch my mom play and she would trust her arms in the air to the direction she was trying to make the character move... especially if they're jumping.
She got mad at me for laughing at her today, but at least she wasn't playing Spryo that's the game that she really throws her hands (and controller) around like a lunatic!

Now, when my fiance plays he ends up screaming at the television and screaming profanities at the cpu characters.
I also find this hilarious, and often find myself in trouble here too, because I end up distracting him playing his game 'cause I'm laughing my ass off...

I think the weirdest thing I do while gaming is the positions I end up laying in. I can't stand sitting in a chair for whatever reason...

So what are the weirdest things you have encountered while watching people play video games,
and
What are some strange things you do while playing video games?

I'm that guy who gets frustrated when the person I'm watching sucks. Don't know why that is.

I like watching people play

Sitting and silently screaming to yourself when you watch people go in the opposite direction of what you think should be an easy concept and just a little bit of common sense. I visit a friend. Their brother is playing dark souls II.

RPGs + Someone who isn't quite sure what to + Trying to tell them where to go/what to pick up/LOOK OUT FOR THAT ENEMY = just kill me now

"NO! That's the wrong portal!"
"Where are you going you Idiot!?! The Pokemon leauge is the other way!"

evretim

I yelled at my brother so much when he played Skyrim or DA:O that he won't even play it anymore.

Also when i was younger I couldn't play a game by myself (I was 5 or something) because I got scared or some shit apparently. ( I only played banjo and kazooie back then and I was forever stuck on the level with the gigantic circus boss thingy)

I hate watching my neighbor play AC 2, he fucking sucks at it, though he's 8 so it makes sense

It's what I grew up doing. My mom would always play Spyro, Quail, Final Fantasy, and other RPG games that at the time being so young I couldn't fully grasp how to play (obviously Spyro was a little easier than the others)

Watching casuals play a Souls game is the worst.

Watching any of the Funhaus guys play GTA V makes me want to put my head in a deep fryer.  Even if that's what makes the videos hilarious at times.
