I'm always curious about what the culture's like at other studios...What non-work things do you guys do at your workplace?

Here's some of mine-

At ePLDT, it was Dota over lunch, birthday lunches, drinking sessions and late nights in the office room, and out of town trips. Looking back, I think we sometimes tended to be as delinquent as our non-game co-workers thought we were, but a powerhouse all the same.

At Tenacious Games, we'd gather around the HDTV every Wednesday for movie night. It was mostly films that fueled the look of the Spoils, and I saw a lot of neat under-the-radar films like City of Lost Children, Brazil, Baron Munchausen, and utter garbage like Peter Jackson's Dead Alive.

At Real U it was soccer, squash, and the art team would have it's Street Fighter tournies and Risk sessions over lunch.

At EA, FIFA tournaments, bi-monthly wine/beer/food/pool (as in, 8-ball) parties, and a hell of a lot of guitar playing.

(I have a nagging feeling I've done this thread before...)
