Matthew’s video shows gamers what happens when you go on a Nintendo binge, complete with Pokemon, Mario, and Zelda themes. I myself have had hallucinations after playing too much Zelda. There have been many occasions where I have sworn that the distant music I hear in the mall, theater, or Sonic was the main theme music. One time, I was at a car wash waiting in line, and I heard the water-world music from Ocarina of Time. Sighing to myself, I reached in my purse for my medication, only to hear my passenger laugh about the Zelda music that the car wash was pumping through the speakers. After throwing my meds into the trash, I promptly called my doctor to demand a refund, but he refused. Unfortunately, now that I no longer have the meds, I hear Oblivion music. I expect men in white coats to show up at my door any day now.

That was certainly an enjoyable video, I hope you guys can put up the other entries too.
As for thinking about games…yup, had that one. Last couple of weeks I’ve been on a Halo (1) binge and I had a dream about fighting alongside the MC with a shotgun in hand…besides, no-one is cool enough to dream they ARE MC!
