I had played a ton of arcade games, atari 2600, atari 800, intellivision, og nintendo games but it was San Francisco Rush on the N64 where I had to stop playing because my eyes hurt. I realized I hadn't blinked in an hour or so, I was that immersed in the experience. It was absolutely mind boggling to me at the time.

It was Hexen on N64 where I had to stop playing because I kept trying to play through the headache to and distract myself from being nauseous. One violent vomiting session later I found myself questioning life choices. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ To this day I still can't handle first person games ...or third person games where the camera is too close, too low, too fast, or the framerate isn't consistent/smooth. It kinda sucks.
