It depends on our much you do. As with anything else, your fine motor skills work just fine on a small, reasonable amount. More so with mushrooms, which is not a visual thing like LSD. Mushrooms is more like smoking some really good weed without the side effects of feeling tired or the hunger pangs, which is why I preferred it. Mushrooms are not visual? What kind of shrooms have you been taking? They are highly visual, not comparable to weed no matter how good and how much. Maybe it depends on what kind of shrooms, but all I know so far produce awesome visuals;) Oh but I remember playing one pinball machine while on shrooms. Yeah that was very,very entertaining. Maybe I should give video games on shrooms a try, but I guess I'd prefer something very simple, like some Atari 2600 games:D Punchout for instance would be way to complex, visually and mechanically, for me. I mean not as visual. Whereas LSD is mainly about the visual aspect of it and I never saw shrooms that way. At least the stuff we were getting. There could be a difference there.

I don't play drunk, except maybe Gears of War. I have a very ironclad "do not drink and game" policy, partly because alcohol makes me have to piss every 5 minutes, partly because it makes it harder to focus and just not as fun and finally because I want at least one really good reason not to drink too frequently, you've got to be careful with that.

I mean, video games, weed and good beer just go together so well. What happened to pizza and coke (not the drug)? Got replaced with Mtn dew and Doritos.

I don't do drugs, but I too find that I sometimes get very silly if I stay up too late. Also, like @jasonx said, games can have a druglike effect on people sometimes. Succeeding in MGSV can make me quite giddy.

Speaking of drugs, you know what really broke my connection to the story in Spec Ops: The Line? The hallucinations. I found them jarringly over-the-top and too obviously set-piece-y, if that makes sense.
...Well, MOST of them. The one where you keep trying to hit an armored trooper and he keeps seemingly teleporting around the room was nicely integrated into the gameplay.

I'm guessing blinking a light on and off was supposed to replicate the effects of nighttime explosions/flashbangs going off/flares.

I'm afraid I don't have any concrete details but I believe I read that in "Killing is Harmless: A Critical Reading of Spec Ops: The Line" which is definitely a must read if you're a fan of the game. I think what happens is the light flickering on and off can actually make a PTSD sufferer hallucinate.

I got higher than hell one time and tried to play Sonic CD. I sat on the menu screen and listened to the bonus stage bgm (Japanese ost) for about two hours. It was fucking awesome.

Me: "I just had a marvelously dumb idea."
Friend: "Hm?"
Me: "Play through the Assassin's Creed games while high on weed. AUTHENTIC HASHISHAN SIMULATOR."
Friend: "Now the plot makes more sense!"

This is a good stoned game story Agreed. I'd say the US soundtrack would be way more appropriate for such a thing, personally.

Nintendo games like the Mario 3D series was great fun smoking. All primary colors, and pure fantasy.
