This absolutely happens to me too…no worries, it is After-Motion Optical vision…What happens is your brain neurons becom fatiqued and trick your brain into thinking you are still looking the motion!! It shoul go away shortly after you stop playing

I experience the same effect… Anyway, an english research found out action games are good for our vision, so as a gh lover, I prefer believing this discovery includes this nice guitar game

Oh my God. I had this effect with Guitar Hero World Tour. I was playing Schizm by Tool today, and I took a break after being booed off the screen(LOL), And I took a look away to rest my eyes while the game was loading. Oh my freaking God, I swear the walls and everything that I looked at were moving downwards and they were like wavy. It looked like a mushroom trip. Not that I would know, But I was seriously hallucinating. Really weird shit. My eyes have since adjusted, At least I hope so Haha, After I turned it off and took a long break. I had never experienced anything like that ever when playing a video game.

[...] Guitar Hero Vision -Have any of you had this? After playing Guitar Hero for a while whatever you look at afterwards looks like it’s moving, warping, etc. It’s major lulz. Found this: Guitar Hero Vision – Motion After Effect | i.nconspicuo.us [...]

I have a DIFFERENT PROBLEM with my eyes. When I have played GH on our PS3 for a couple of hours in the evening, I see repeating images for the next 14 hours or so. It happens when I close my eyes. When my eyes are closed I see those coloful circles whizzing by on the highway. I have never experienced the MAE that the others have described. Anyone else experience what I have?

I also suffer from MAE when playing this game.
A friend of mine though, reports he has no real problem with it.
I, as being a medical student, believe this has to do with the way one plays the game. I watch the notes for playing and quickly scroll my eyes around the neck. My friend only listens to the music and then knows what note to play. This eye movement (sometimes opposite to the movement of the neck) may then cause the MAE.
It has to do with the brain already ‘planning ahead’ where the picture will go. Think of it as having a 100Hz television but only a 60Hz screen.
It has nothing to do with being dizzy after spinning around too much (this is related to your balancing organ behind the ear)

No no, you just have to stare at the center of it for the duration of the video. Then just look at something stationary (like your ceiling especially) and it should be wobbling around, growing and shrinking. It’s really interesting, and lasts about 15 seconds or so.

I’ll have to check out that youtube video… do you have to press your nose on the screen while you watch it???

A similar visual effect you can get from you can get from the youtube video titled “Natural Hallucinogen”

Really interesting stuff to look at.

By the way, the above person talking about shrooms sounds like hes paranoid with or without drugs so don’t take his word on shrooms. It’s a crazy drug but people take it differently.

I just got GHIII today for ps3 and had the same thing happen, only thing is i got a bag of fresh new weed today and had a smoke before i played. Started tripping and thought ‘DAMN, THIS IS SOME GOOD WEED!’ but decided to check on internet if this sort of thing is normal with this game, and it appears it is!

I love it, as in the post above i’ve done shrooms and other mind bending substances but haven’t for over 5 years, so when i started tripping after playing it was very good for me, bought back some great memorys. I used to love acid!

NO Joke!! I’ve played guitar hero on the Xbox and the Xbox 360. Both games did the exact thing to me too!! It reminded me of an experience I’ve had that Some people would be proud to admit..but not me…I’ve tried tripping mushrooms twice before and didn’t enjoy it to much. I ate an 1/8 each time at once. Kind of freak’d me out when things started moving that weren’t suppose to be moving.. Like when I stared at the wall in the bathroom about an hour after I took the mushrooms. The textured drywall appeared as if I could stick my finger right into it, and it looked like it was alive. Moving inwards and outwards and kind of twisting. That was pretty cool, but I don’t recomend tripping shrooms at all. It lasts for a good 6 to 8 hours. Once it kicks in you’re like oh damn. What did I get myself into? The thoughts that pass through your head while tripping can be pretty depressing and scary. Some people would laugh at me and say they love tripping. Not me. I’ve tried it twice and it is way to much stimulation for the human mind in my perception. Moral of the story is…I just played Guitar Hero III on the X 360 and was having a blast, but soon as I took my eyes off of the moving screen after a couple songs…I looked at the ground and it was twisting and turning…anywhere I looked things were moving like they were breathing. Thought someone had slipped some shrooms in my food for a sec. I’m a guitar player and love that game, but that trippy feeling you get is one that really messes with my head personally. I don’t like it when I feel like I’ve lost control of my mind. I think I might go play it again, but before that I’m gonna do a little research and make sure it won’t cause any real serious problems like a seisure or somethin. Who knows..? Crazy!!! Thanks for reading!!

Seems to be a common occurrence… I’m not too worried about it… GHII is way to fun to stop playing!
