I remember all the Pokemon rumors. Mew underneath the truck near the SS Anne and how to get mew. Anyone else have stories they want to share.

The only one I could think of was the Mew truck one. I wished it was true. It would have been easier to get Mew that way.

Not actually fake, but I remember trying to use glitches to break Morrowind and create the ultimate character. Ahh, the hours spend on those FAQs...

Too bad no one told me about the death warrant for stealing.

"Naked" character's in DOA: Beachvollyball.

If I recall the magazine who put out the rumor got some nasty letter's from 'Fans'

The original Pokemon Red/Blue. "Pressing/holding/tapping A/B/Select increases the chances of a pokemon being caught!" The one I fell for was rocking the directionals left and right in time with the pokeball.

The Triforce in the chest in Ocarina of Time, Pokegods in Pokemon, countless rumors of nudity for basically every Metroid game with weird requirements. Resurrecting Aeris in FFVII.

You can get Mew as early as Cerulean City using a really easy glitch involving teleport.

I remember hearing somewhere that after completing MGS1 on the Playstation for about 4 times you'd get a chance to play as Gray Fox. Aaaand it was a lie.

I always put the gameboy on the table, face down.

That was more superstition, mind you.

My friend was once convinced that somewhere hidden on a Halo 2 multiplayer map was the Gravity Gun.
He was just so enthusiastic about finding it that I didn't have the heart to tell him it was the wrong game.

I remember that, in fact I still do that. Just kinda my good luck/ finger crossing for catching.

Yes in fact I did eventually find a way to get mew. But I did the Lavender Town fly glitch.
