"I do. Annoys the crap out of me. I play Instagib CTF on UT04, and when my hand is sweaty my accuracy plummets."
 
If my hands begin to get sweaty I just wipe them on my pants or shirt.

I get that feeling when I am chasing the flag carrier and its getting close to the base.

Edit: Or I am the last one who can stop them from scoring. I hate that, the pressure!

I dont mean to offend the people who get sweaty hands.
Now thats out've the way I ask.

I have to ask those who get sweaty hands, are you... lets say a little chubby?
I am a skinny person so... I've never had a sweating issues.
Except for the NES... that controller is painful.
 
This tends to happen to me when I get a new FPS. The first week or so I experience this. Then once I settle down into the game the swetty hands go away.

Every once and a while I get a nice heart rate going while playing BF2, that's when I usually stop drinking the coffee and start drinking the water.

I'm a skinny guy and my hands sweat whenever I play a console for a while. I've never had the problem with computer games though.
 
My hands do get sweaty. I think its because of the stress the games i play bring on. I mean think about it. You are the only one left when playing CS. Your a bit more cautios, etc. When i played WOW i never had sweaty palms.

WheaT
 
Mine get really sweaty, but it doesn't really affect me. People just never want to use a controller after I'm done with it :).
 
it depends on how heated the situation is. sometimes they get clammy, othertimes sweaty.
 
I have experianced sweaty hands a few times while playing pc games, but it never happens anymore for some reason.

I am 6'1" 190lbs btw.
