Wuss Alert - I get wonky from some games

(1/6) > >>

pinzach:
So I was playing Driven (GameCube) the other day - close-up on a 29" monitor in a cab.  After a few minutes, I had a splitting headache.  It lasted all night and into the next morning.  That doesn't leave me feeling very manly.  The advent of 3D games and even some 2D games where the background and foreground move independently made it so that every once in a while, gaming gave me headaches or made me feel a little wonky.  In fact a couple of months ago, I wrote about it on my blog.... (and there's a poll there now to indicate if it happens to you)...

But, my poll notwithstanding, anecdotal evidence here would be much more fun to read... So, has a game ever made you feel crappy or even nauseated?  Be a man and admit it here.

Mario Galaxy did it to me the first time I played... And anything on the Virtua Boy.

Used to play long hours of Guitar Hero in a friend's house that had wood panel walls. After staring at the screen long enough, the walls looked like they were moving, almost as good as mushrooms visual wise.

AlienInferno:
Games don't bother me too bad but I don't like watching 3D movies for this reason.

I can't play or watch any first person shooters. Instant nausea. The immersive 3d Aladdin ride at Disney Quest made me so ill after less than a couple of minutes that I had to rip off the head gear or vomit, and I was sick for the next 3 hours. Miserable.

Funny, I can play racing games, but I can't watch someone else play.
