So what do you do while you game? 
  
For me it depends what I'm playing. If its an FPS or RTS I am focused on the game but occasionally play music. 
But if it's an MMO I am usually watching Scrubs or other shows.

If it is new then just game.  If it's old or it's a game with no vocal dialogue or anything I have to listen to I watch something on the internet or listen to podcasts.

It depends. if I'm playing a game that's atmospheric like BioShock or Assassin's Creed II, then I generally don't have anything else in the background. But, if I'm playing a game like Persona 3 and I'm in Tartarus (the dungeon area), then I'll have my TV on mute while I listen to the Bombcast or songs on Grooveshark.

If it's time to eat while I'm gaming, I'll eat and game at the same time.  I also usually drink different beverages while I game. 
 
When it comes to listening, the general rule is first playthrough: game.  Replays: music

I don't do anything else except for playing a video game when I play a video game except for when I'm grinding in RPGs; then I listen to podcasts.

I just focus on the game.

People that are half present watching movies/tv/sports need to get the fuck out of my mmo's.
Go watch sports when you're grinding levels, not when your group depends on you!

I usually have my headphones in with Bombcast or music playing. I take them off or mute the song during cutscenes and other story-specific events.

Listen to podcasts when I play multiplayer alone. I usually give my full attention to the story in games.

Smokeless tobacco is my favorite thing to do. Beer works with some Wii games, especially with golf. Wine is great with CRPGs. Oh and cigarettes, they work well with CRPGS, RTSs and Civ games, some Wii games as well.

Usually when I game, I... game. Typically, I have a beverage (A soda, tea, etc.) and something of a snack, either hearty or sweet (chocolate, cookies, tortilla chips, arare, etc.).

 I play the game. If it's something like Civ I will eat a meal sometimes, or if there is long spawn times I might have GB or some other site open in the steam browser. I used to listen to the 1up podcasts while I played city of heroes.

It depends. If it's a game with a story I am interested in then I just game, but if I'm just getting achievements on an older game then it's always music/bombcasts

If its just some multiplayer game I want to play a few games of or want to level up quickly, I will put on a TV show or some heavy metal to pump me up. If it's some story heavy RPG, especially if I haven't already beat it, then nothing else will be turned on and my main focus will be the game.

Masterbate.
 
But no seriously, I usually text while playing to keep myself from feeling lonely, especially when playing horror games.

Music and other things just distract me. If I am playing a game I am playing a game. Why would I want to be doing something else?

If you watch TV shows while playing games then surely it just suggests that the game isnt worth playing?

My full attention is directed toward the game, unless it is an online experience (TF2, Reach Multiplayer). In that case I usually have music going in the background.

If it's a particularly fast-paced or immersive game i'll just play it, otherwise i'll listen to some podcasts or talk to people on Skype while I play.
