Why would it be bad? If you enjoy it, well, do just that, take some joy from it.

I played quake 4 once on a pretty mild trip and while the colors were incredibly beautifal, it got very old and boring after like 2 minutes.

I was playing counter strike one time when I was just coming up. Once I started tripping it was boring and I went outside.

San Andreas is fun to play with your mates (or alone I guess) stoned. Mushrooms would be fun too although it may set some people in a bad mood because of the violence? I dunno. I would imagine I would find it increasingly dificult to co-ordinate a VG while peaking on mushrooms. I think I'd have the same effect as what FungusMan mentioned.

The comedown is the best time for video games and the right games can be great tripping multiplayer can get intense plotting on the other players.

Depends on the game. But, if you want to play a game - then play a game, why would it be bad?
You'll have a certian group of posters here who will think you're 'disrespecting the mushroom by wasting it playing video games', but to each their own.
The only problem I can see, is if you're on a higher dose trip - then it may just be confusing to play as there is too much going on.
I generally dont play video games while tripping, although I have had a few very enjoyable I <3 Katamari games while waiting for LSD to come up. I usually stop playing after the peak hits, as theres other things I want to do and give my attention to the trip, but its a nice way to kill time while waiting for things to kick in.

Worst case scenario is your eyes could get a little sore from the light, since your pupils will be dilated. Risk = 0

Unless you're epileptic and prone to video game enduced seizures then there's nothing bad about it...
Played some dungeons and dragons game with my friends once (least I think that's what it was) it basically ended in me just running around in circles smashing the attack button cause I couldn't keep track of which character I was and I had never played the game and couldn't understand it... Counter strike during a come up was amusing but got boring fast, and WoW was the slowest thing I've ever experienced...

WoW is such a bland game. The previews for it during beta made it sound good, and 'wouldnt be unusuall to be taking on 2-3 monsters at a time, even while playing solo' and fast-action based gameplay.
I found in the end, it just was like EQ with better quest progression and better graphics. In the end, it was still the same pull / kill / move / pull / kill / move routine with nothing that really wow'd me.

I never end up doing anything I plan for more than 10 minutes while tripping. I just run, hop, and skip along with the flow.

Solo's pretty bland an uneventful, raids are fun, and gaining a level is pretty satisfying :p

I bought a new copy of "The Manhole" when I first began tripping five years ago. Thought it would be a "cool" thing to do while on shrooms. I installed it, but never played it while under the influence.
If I were going to place a video game, this might be the one, though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Manhole

I played Doom 3 and F.E.A.R tripping, pretty damn intense ill say. But I rather be outside in nature for tripping... games for like 30 minutes of a trip is about my max.

If you play Halo 2 online I can say your chances of running into another person tripping are higher than you would think. I've had 3 occasions where I've been tripping playing the game and I would tire of all the violence and go off to a part of the map where I could make my character "dance" by basically spinning around in circles and crouching every so often. It seems to be a Halo tradition of some sort as I have seen other people doing the same or even joining me in the dance where we would find out through our headsets that the other people were tripping as well. I always enjoyed the outrageousness that there would be 3-4 players dancing in an area and after a while the other players would stop brutally murdering us and give us some peace. So, ummm, yea tripping and videogames are a fun mix, especially FIFA 06.
