@Th3solution Personally I don’t do almost anything without multi-tasking so it might just be me. When I’m driving to work, shopping or at the gym I always catch up with my podcasts.
With gaming I always have either Netflix or YouTube on. I obviously pause during story segments, but that’s about it. During the World Cup for example I watched almost 2/3 of all the games whilst gaming as I work late (apart from the final). I wouldn’t want to choose between the two.
I also don’t have much ‘me’ time & I do try to make time for the family.
It works😅.

I don’t multitask in games, a big part of the experience is the sound design and not being able to enjoy it as part of the experience just kills it for me. Watching YouTube while playing frankly sounds hellish to me, even if I am just grinding out XP. I used to play Tony Hawks and GT1 back in the day with the radio on or something, but that’s about it!
@Th3solution Just me and whatever game I'm playing, bad enough when the Mrs walks Infront of the t.v. never mind having another screen to look at or something. Phone on silent and PS5/switch on 😃!
With gaming, almost never doing something else. At the most, I will have music on in the background if I'm playing a racing game, or something where you spend a lot of time in the menus, as I usually quickly get bored of the in-game music.
When it comes to TV and films, I'm usually on here or catching up on emails etc. I know when something has really grabbed when I stop doing that to actually watch it lol.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@Th3solution The only time I’ve multitasked was watching Netflix while grinding in Yakuza: Like a Dragon
That said, I’ve started watching a lot more on streaming services recently as I feed the baby at the same time in the evening. I’m rattling through shows at the moment!
Wow, interesting poll so far. Looks to be around 50-50 of people who like do multitask during gaming versus those who like to focus on just the one activity.
I have heard that brushing your teeth while in the shower is a great optimization of both activities. Have never tried it though. Nor eating in the shower, which also is apparently done by some.
I do read while on the toilet, but doesn’t everyone do that? 😜

@MatthewJP 😂 Yikes! I’m not sure why that disgusts me, but it definitely seems gross.
After I use a public bathroom, I have to resist the urge to burn all the clothes I was wearing because those places are often really disgusting. I especially hate looking down on the floor when I’m using a urinal. I don’t always wash the bottom of my shoes when I get home but I definitely at least take them off before I walk inside! 😅

My PSP 30000 battery couldn't be charged (blinked flash orange light when being charged).
I was thinking to dock my PSP 30000 and I want to display the PSP games on TV and being controlled by PS3 controller.
Is that possible happen ?
How do you dock your PSP 30000 without battery ?
Happy New Year fellow Push Squareites, hope your 2023 has been going well so far. 2022 was a great year for gaming and I can't wait to see what surprises this year brings us on top of some great looking games that have already been announced.
