So I was playing Driven (GameCube) the other day - close-up on a 29" monitor in a cab. After a few minutes, I had a splitting headache. It lasted all night and into the next morning. That doesn't leave me feeling very manly. The advent of 3D games and even some 2D games where the background and foreground move independently made it so that every once in a while, gaming gave me headaches or made me feel a little wonky. In fact a couple of months ago, I wrote about it on my blog.... (and there's a poll there now to indicate if it happens to you)...

But, my poll notwithstanding, anecdotal evidence here would be much more fun to read... So, has a game ever made you feel crappy or even nauseated? Be a man and admit it here.
