We all sit and play our games with our favorite soda. What is your favorite?
I honestly either drink Sprite, Root Beer, or Orange Juice while gaming or anywhere actually lol!
Coffee is bad habit of mine, I drink way way too much what I should, when I get older I piss tar...
lol yeah I hear you on that Fiancee. I've switched to diet soda's recently trying to switch cause especially on long raids and such can slurp down a lot of unneeded calories.
Water or cup of tea. Think I'll grab some tea now ...yummm
There's never a day when I don't have a pitcher of iced tea in the fridge. That's usually my poison of choice, though I've been known to crack open a bottle of Martinelli's when the mood strikes me.
neither, go with water. or after a meal, hot tea.
but since you asked, mine is welch's sparkling grape soda <3
Water or tea. I do have the occasional coke (not diet, nor pepsi etc. Plain old red coca cola) but not very often. I'm actually very accustomed to having water and it's just something that I drink all the time, no plans to change.
"Water is good for you yo!"
Coke Cherry Zero....unbeatable
I can drink water nonstop as long as it is ice water I know bit weird. I used to be really bad about Cherry Coke man but when you have the sweet nectar of the gods and then its diet version its horrible. At least for me it is.
I hear you Kaos. I've never found a 'diet' soda that didn't taste like sewage.
I don't drink soda of any kind very much any more. I prefer water, juices and tea. Once in a while I break down and snag a cherry coke.
Water or a tea tend to be my drinks of choice, I actually very rarely drink fizzy drinks at all, abit of coke in my jack Daniels or navy rum but thats about the only time.
Y'all know that diet or not, coke/pepsi or pretty much anything is not healthy for you if you just sit around playing videogames, right?
Well yeah but that wasn't what was really be discussed. When a game first comes out you always put in a lot of hours of game play just a better alternative to what most people drink. kinda a Tongue and Cheek question.
Ginger ale made with soulless ginger most of the time =D ... or milk depending if i am eating sweets
Don't drink soda/pop or anything with "bubbles", I'm drinking water and teas, about it, and for the folks who say "diet" well hate to break it to you but "diet" drink wise is horrible for you :I But I myself will be drinking water, water, and with a little extra water on the side.
Neither. If I am going to have a soda.. which isn't often i'll drink a normal one. But usually I stick to tea, coffee, water.
Tea or Water :>
But if I drink softdrinks I usally drink cola
Water? Or unsweet Iced Tea is my choice. I don't touch that disgusting Diet nonsense.
Am I the only one who likes to drink milk? :)
My favorit drinks while playing games (no priority list, just random):
Milk, tea, water....sometimes juice, too.
:I this is all I thought about

Mexican Coke.
Which is really any Coke made with real sugar instead of processed artificial sweeteners. Which includes High Fructose Corn Syrup.
It takes better and actually a bit healthier then those other cokes, plus you're not fooling yourself into thinking you're saving yourself a ton of calories so it's ok to have that extra chocolate cupcake. Remember, a normal serving of Coke, even with the real sugar, is still only about 100 calories. Though admittedly I tend to drink a lot more then a normal serving, but then I don't believe in diets.
When I want a true calorie free alternative to Coke, I go with unsweetened iced tea.
Water, tea, or juice is what I do. Plus I wouldn't touch diet soda, I don't do sweeteners or aspartame.
I used to not it even tends to make my ulvia swell up but I was a major soda drinker and trying to cut back.
Sugar (or carbs) are going to negatively affect you in the long run, regardless of what you choose to drink. The sedentary lifestyle that so many of us are accustomed to makes it very easy to snack and binge on sugar or carbs constantly. The body's response to all of that glucose is to produce insulin. Sooner or later, your body may become resistant to the insulin response and *BOOM* diabeetus (you know you read it in Wilford Brimley's voice)!
Check out ketogenic diets, specifically high-fat, low-carb foods. There's a very helpful community over at reddit (/r/keto). You can always exercise self-control, even if you can't get to gym.
In any case, regardless of what diet or food you eat, glad to see some nutritional discussion around these parts.
sweet tea for me. but if its a soda I go for diet Dr Pepper only diet soda I can stand.
Only time I drink soda is when there's whiskey or rum accompanying it :)
Mostly drink water.
I drink a lot of Vitamin Water when gaming though it's still has a lot of sugar it's better then drinking a soda. But since you asked for soda I'd say I drink Mtn. Dew.
I heard some where that diet soda can cause some people to gain weight or was is kill babies? (not a joke seriously i don't know which is true if any.)
Im just going to put this out there and say Diet Cola in general is quite bad for you. :cool:
Wow shocked my thread is still going. Yeah diet soda makes you either A. Want real sugar or B. Drink even more diet soda. Its like "Oh yeah baby" Diet soda = Oh Real soda = Yeah baby
Its been proven that the artificial sweeteners in diet soda not only have carcinogenic properties but now they are saying they can actually put you at a higher risk for diabetes as well.
The best thing you can do is to stock up on bottled water keep it nice and cold in a fridge.
Second best is unsweetened 100% fruit juices.
If you absolutely have to have soda look for soda sweetened with real sugar. The problem with soda isn't so much the calories but moderation and High Fructose Corn Syrup.
As Bobby Boucher's mother would say: "High Fructose Corn Syrup is the devil"

Coke Zero and Cherry Coke Zero are Teh best
Mountain Dew & Cranberry Juice. If I am having fun then I would drink Redbull and Jager. Oh the good times how much K/D and Hit Accuracy Declines Rapidly.... lol
