OK, worst gaming habits I've heard so far! LOL:

Vicious: punching and destroying actual console!
Fantasytiger: using games as costers
Trunks: playing in the nude?!!!?!??

Oh, man. That last one was just plain scary.

As for me, my worst habit used to be throwing my controllers, but I haven't really done that much in ages. It takes an extremely infuriatingly hard game to do that to me now. PLus, those SNES controllers were pretty damn durable back in the day. Nowadayz, you're gonna throw your super-whatsis quadruple analog calibrated super manual pad with motion sensors and sonar outta whack. So, I take care of the freakin expensive things. Hey, have you ever opened up a PS2 pad? Not as simple as an old NES controller to fix yourself, now is it?

Then there's my habit of having to, when playing certain action games like survival horrors, pressing the "action" button along every single inch of the walls around your character or over anything shiny just to make sure you didn't miss anything important. I'm sure we can all relate to this because this habit is almost necessary. I long for the day when they figure out a way to fix this tired out old gaming problem. Even SH's looking in the direction of important things doesnt seem to help me cuz I have OCD about these things!

Here's kind of a bad gaming habit in a reversed sort of way with an opposite problem related to real life more than the actual game. You ever find yourself driving along in real life and thinking "Hey maybe if I just sideswipe this guy here or if I take this corner too hard it'll be ok because I'll just bounce right back off the guard rail and continue on to win the race home" or something equally as ridiculous? I don't know about you, but for people out there who don't catch themselves quick enough, I would imagine driving videogames could have some potentially serious side effects!

Well, there is my contribution to this thread...scary, wasn't it?
