The only game I've ever played drunk (or at least, can remember playing drunk) is Rock Band. Of course, that was with friends who were around for an evening of stupid inebriated music-gaming,
So do you tend to play games whilst drunk?
And if so, were you playing by yourself, or with friends?

If I was a drinker, I totally would.

I think most terrible games are only playable whilst intoxicated.
I remember a quote saying that Angel of Darkness (Tomb Raider) was only playable if you were drunk.

Thats fake, that game can't be played, no matter if you're drunk or drugged. And this is coming from a Tomb Raider fan

No, because it would be a waste of my time, money, and health to get drunk in the first place.

Yes, quite frequently. But if I'm pretty serious about a game I'll refrain so I can keep my concentration up, like I'm playing Wipeout HD right now and that game is near impossible to play it good while drunk, just like driving real spaceships.  I tend to drink when I play an online MP game to loosen me up a bit, plus owning someone online is just a completely hilarious moment for me when I am drinking.

Semi-Serious.
I mean, it's not as if I'm running some kind of official poll so that I can write an article on the connection between drinking and gaming, but I'm still fairly interested.

I won ten bucks playing SSBB drunk. She thought just because I was drunk I couldn't kick her ass. It was ever so satisfying because she flaunted the whole 'girl gamer' thing.

Worst argument ever ^_^
If a girl is a bad gamer, it's because she's inexperienced, not because she's female.
Well...inexperienced, or inebriated =P

What argument? She sucked, I beat her while hammered by spamming Snakes up-smash. She trash talked me before and it felt amazing when I slaughtered her.

And there are such things as [mostly] true generalizations. Females sucking at video games is one of them, next to bad asian drivers and black people liking rap.

No, I mean her exploiting the 'female gamer' aspect to try and make up for her own lack of talent. And most females suck at video games because most females don't play them as much as we, their male counter-parts. Just because she's female and she's bad at video games doesn't mean that her gender is to blame. It's just another aspect of the bigger picture.

Yeah, gender isn't the picture. There are just certain people that deserve euthanasia. 'Grrl gamerz' are among them. If I ever lost to a woman and she yelled "You just lost to a girl!" I'd smack her so fast... But that hasn't happened yet and I don't plan to let it. Only time I recall losing to a girl was in StarCraft, and it was fine. I suck at RTS' and she really was a gamer.

If a woman ever shouted "You just lost to a girl" I wouldn't smack her, but I would realise that she's not the sort of person that I would want to be friends with, trying to utilize her gener to instil humiliation in others.
Basically, I think that when people start gaming, unless they're inebriated to some extent or have some disability, then everybody has an equal chance at becoming skilled, regardless of faith, gender, race or anything else you could care to mention.

I don't play anymore, but when I did WoW was good fun with alcohol. Showing up to raids drunk was hilarity. My GL hated me, but I was top DPS and had lots of friends that'd leave if I was booted.

Only time recently( like four months ago or something) I can remember being very slightly drunk at a friends house with some peeps over playin Rock Band, but that kinda just adds to the hilarity of listening to how terrible people do while wasted, especially singing.

Why not?  Drunkeness is one of the human experiences since the dawn of what we know as man.  Just let me know you were drunk as hell once and didn't like it.  That's fine, but never being drunk and professing against it is a little weak.  I dont like getting stoned, but I have in the past smoked the green,  Its not for me, I get too paranoid and spaced out.  So how, Kush, does drinking the alcohol make you feel that you could never get drunk?

drunk group Wii sports is an experience you have to try at least once in your gaming life;

everyone slumped on various pieces of furniture uncontrollably laughing at the bizarre gesticulations of the person playing, the lack of balance makes the physical movements hilarious and it just generally makes it really fun

Yep, what he said.  Wii Sports while drunk and around many drunk friends is a crazy experience.

I enjoy having a couple beers and playing online. After about 6 beers (over, say, two or three hours) though, I can no longer enjoy certain games. However, there are certain games I enjoy playing with a good buzz on (generally PC games).

So, yes.

Mario Kart on any platform is a blast when you're drinking with friends.  Same with any music based game.  I'm also a big fan of social Halo when I've been drinking.  There just isn't anything like the moment when you do a Warthog drive-by with your buddies, all the while singing Dropkick Murphys.
