Gaming What I learned from Video games is...

[Haku877]

O.K people, the topic for this thread is simple, you write down things that stick out in video games( as jokes to make fun of the stuff that you normally can't do), name the game afterwards and read all of the other cool ideas!

[U]What I learned from Video games is:[/U]
1. Mushrooms make me big, but turtles, fish, and bombs are among other things that make me smaller. - Mario anything
2. I can become pro in sports! - Wii sports
3. When I die, all I have to do is wait 15 second to be revived - almost everything
4. I've mastered my singing talents. - All singing games
5. I don't have to learn how to play the guitar to be in a band. - Guitar Hero

Well That is pretty much all you have to do in this thread. Its really simple, but as you read others you wonder why you didn't notice that?

[FONT=Arial]A thousand to one odds are absolutely no problem. Jumping over a small rock, however, is completely impossible.

Ammo is absorbed through the feet directly into the first available magazine, regardless of whether it is in a box or in a discarded gun.

The hero never screams in pain when shot, even from close range. The best you'll get out of him is a grunt or a hiss.

Bullets from sniper rifles leave vapor trails. Even the subsonic ones.[/FONT]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]'Health packs' know exactly where to apply their gauze and healing agents without any aid from the player.

You run faster with a knife equipped.

You can be hit by a rocket and survive but falling any further than 20 feet is instantly fatal.

Your hero never sleeps or eats. Ever. He's too busy saving a princess or kicking ***.

The player character knows how to use every single weapon in existence, even alien weaponry, with deadly precision.

Ninja favor brute force over stealthy tactics.

Aliens still make the best bad guys.

[COLOR=#6d527f][SIZE="1"][FONT="Trebuchet MS"]- If you run into a wall you won't stop, you'll simply keep running in perpetuity on the spot until you move into a slightly different direction.

-You cannot use your massive sword or gun to destroy a lock, or even move over a simple chair.

-Running forward screaming is far more effective than using cover and shooting guns.

-As long as you have a single health point you can function normally.

-When people fight, they arrange themselves into neat rows facing each other and take turns one by one.

-If a guard of a super secret government facility notices a spy inside the deepest most safest security zone ever, he will chase him for about two minutes before deciding that he's probably miles away by now.

-If there is a chain link fence, you can shoot through it and NEVER hit the fence.

-Armor that bears a woman's midriff and cleavage is the most effective kind of armor in the entire universe.

-You will hear fanfare when you win. If you don't, you've lost the game.

-Shooting yourself in the face is a great way to summon familiars.

-If you leave your base for any reason or for any amount of time, it's almost certainly been completely destroyed by the time you get back.

- That small, pre-pubescent girls are just as formidable in combat as seasoned war veterans.

- That it takes approximately thirty rounds of fifty calibur ammo from an automatic large machine to kill a man. Or two in the head.

- Teenage male characters accompanied by attractive young women will never attempt to have sex, ever. No matter how long the journey or how long its been since they last masturbated.

- Demon > human. Half-demon > demon. Human > half-demon.

- Random animals always carry valuable items such as gold, potions, and other things. These things are dropped when killed, therefore justifying animal cruelty.

- Cockfights and dog fights would be allowed if they shot lightning or fire. In fact, they would be endorsed as a national past time.

[chibi-master]

All of your pokemon will be knocked out by the first pokemon that the Pokemon Champion sends out, despite your pokemon all having full HPs and being on level 97.

You will ALWAYS run into the uber-rare pokemon you've always wanted to catch when you are out of pokeballs.

You will ALWAYS bump into a really high level pokemon that prevents you from escaping when the only pokemon you have left is your level 3 Caterpie.

You will ALWAYS meet a trainer with high level pokemon when your strongest pokemon is poisoned or has 2 HP left.

You can't use Rock Smash on the rocks that you [I]really[/I] need to.

Pokemon in the caves, grass and water will ALWAYS come to you in hoards when you are in a rush. And they will ALWAYS be pokemon you've caught already.

[SIZE="1"]Most relate to Final Fantasy and other general-style RPGs.

- Defeating the final storyline boss is never the hardest battle.

- Potions heal every injury from bullet wounds to sword slashes instantly.

- A single nights rest in an inn with no medical facilities is enough to completely heal all your characters, no matter how badly injured they were.

- Despite the availability of relatively developed firearms, they are almost never as effective as either a mêlée weapon or unarmed techniques.

- Magic > Technology. Generally speaking.

- Kingdoms are good. Empires are evil.

- Items locked in chests in dungeons are done so with the intention of never being used again, until you need them.

- You will never be able to loot the elite weapons off the bodies of major bosses.

- Despite having a Princess or some other form of royalty/nobility in your party, you will never receive financial support.

- The quiet character always has a tragic past. He cannot just dislike loud people because they're loud.
