A couple of days ago I paused playing Overlord twelve  times because I kept finding things to add to it's page, before that  I had to load Gametrailers TV twice because I kept going back and forth on the player hunting for objects to add for the Godfather 2 page.

My gaming experiences are quickly turning into a combination of concepts, objects and locations. Though I'm enjoying the addiction, it is giving a slight headache ( and I think I'm starting to get carpal tunnel syndrome from the repetivive clinking to add to lists).

Anyone else feels the same?

Giant Bomb has definitely rekindled my interest in playing games, and it's also given me an outlet to express my gaming experiences in the form of my blog. Seeing all these pages getting filled is inspiring me to return to games I didn't play much, or hadn't even played at all. In that respect, Giant Bomb has affected by gaming habits, and I'm very glad it has.

Giant Bomb hasn't really effected my gaming habits. Maybe it's made me check out things I wouldn't normally, but that's it. I'm here for the staff aspect primarily so either way, I love it.

GB changed my life. It has given me the courage to stay inside and ignore the real world and just focus on my video games.

The thing i like with GiantBomb is its made me go back and play some older games so i can start taking notes to write up articles, or just go back and play some games after reading the articles written up here by members of the community. It really is a great website, a great atmosphere around this place.

Because of my time here I've started retrogaming, going back to the games I played when I was a kid -- before most of you youngsters were born, I'd imagine. =P  In particular, the old fantasy RPGs like Bard's Tale, Wizard's Crown and the early Ultimas. And now that I've started playing them again on an emulator, I'm basically cataloging them as a I go along, so meeting a new interesting monster or location means instant screenshot. =P
