    I know I've been playing too much Mario Sunshine when, instead of simply walking up stairs, I jump up them shouting "Hoo!", "Wah!" and "Yahoo!"

    Or GTA VC looking at a car saying to myself........hmm i could have that :D

    If I don't play games for 2 days I get shakes in my hands and cravings. Also when I sort something out i'm known to hum the victory fanfare tune from final fantasy.

    I've also got the chocobo theme and others from final fantasy as my ringtones on my mobile.

    ive got the jenova battle music from ff7 as my ring tone.

    How about listening to the wipeout 3 soundtrack for the entire day in work and having masses of theme music from various japanese computer games on your mp3 player.

    mmm nothing like a bit of zone of the enders theme music followed by hikari and suteki da ne to freak people out when your on the bus.

    You know you've been playing Championship Manager too much when you shout "Where's Cherno Samba?" when Sky Sports show Heskey is playing up front.

    You know you've been playing too much Resident Evil when you stop at the end of your stairs at home and in your mind you see an overhead map of your house. Then you try to figure out the shortest, least zombie-riddled route to your bedroom. (actually happened to me :D )

    When you have 100 cents in 1c coins, you think "extra life" before 1 euro.
