Isn't turning into a dementia cabbage like Sean Connery?

That is usually based on the person, not on the game.

>3 dimensional chess mentality

What.

Shooting games are like this. Simple and easy to fall into a flow state where your reactions feel reflexive and 1:1 with what you want to do.

I used to get that with Guitar Hero 2 which back on PS2 for one summer was an obsession with me and my friends. One day i was just playing Message in a Bottle on the hardest setting which we never did like shitkings just having fun and something 'clicked' and i dont think i blinked the entire song and did it perfect. After i found i was much better at the game and never played on the easier settings again, but also never got that experience again either.

Aside from that, I've had that zone feeling with complex shooters, you just have to be good at them and very involved.

Also had it with a small scale mmo that happened to have real time fast-paced combat based on skill. Had it with other types of games too, when I am very involved over a long period of time. High level trick jumping in long and complex maps requires it.

I miss the zone.

Shooters definitely can have it though.

Any game that has a difficulty element beyond game journo pleb tier and the ability for you to immerse yourself will put you into "the zone". You are so concentrated at winning you tune everything else out.

Bruce Lee died because of an allergic reaction. Shame he had to go.

Racing games

Platformers

Basically, anything where any degree of precision of movement and/or reflexes are needed to be maintained and executed throughout.

So Brood War? Because with SC2, forming a deathball and attack-moving at your enemy doesn't count as strategy.
