the momentary feeling of accomplishment that i can only get from flashing lights and noises and am too used to getting artificially that despite being 32 years old i will never achieve in real life, also the steady distraction from my responsibilities and fears. then there was the time my brother and i beat mario 64 one evening and right after mario said thank you so mucha for to playing my game there was a hail of gunfire and screams from the othrr room where our parents were watching some movie and that was pretty funny.
