I tie a goat to my ceiling feet up. I recite the sacred words of the lord of creation, Amen Ra, and i stab the goat with a lions tooth exactly at the time the game releases.

Mine involves explicit sexual acts and illegal narcotics so I can't really go into detail here.

Wash hands. Don't want to muck up my controllers if I can do something to prevent it.

Didn't we just have a thread on this not too long ago. I believe it's the one where one guy implied he put his dingy in the CD hole :? Besides, this topic has no place in SW.

Take about 10 minutes to decide what to play in my large catalog of backlog games I need to finish, play for a few minutes, if game satisfies urge, continue, if not, play another game, and rinse repeat until game is found.

If its a brand new game, watch the introduction and all title screens. If its a big name release that I`ve been waiting for awhile(like with Stronghold 3) then I grab a pizza and a pepsi and game­ for a good chunk of the day.

I sacrifice a bull to the mighty gaming PC gaming gods, then I anoint myself with the blood of the bull, then I dress up in full medieval battle armour.

At least that's what I do when I play Mount & Blade: Warband.

If it's a new game, I always read the manual before I play. And then there are times where I open up the plastic off a brand new game, sit on the toilet, open the case, and rage when I find a thin piece of paper telling me there is a in game manual or the manual is online.

I put my Sony Wireless Stereo headset on, and then put the game into the console. I love that headset for MP and SP games. Using it for FF13 right now is awesome, the music/atmosphere is really great so far.

We honestly need threads like this more often. SW is so full of hatred that threads like these make me smile to see everyone have fun.

Generally I sit down and then launch the game. Sometimes I look really hard at the game, trying to make it launch through mind power. Hasn't worked yet though...
