-Right analog controls camera, nothing else.
-No one will ever like an escort mission.
-Steam > Gamestop
-People will always find something to complain about, so you're better off playing the game yourself then trusting reviews.
-All Valve games kick ass.
-Playing the right music while playing a game can send you into super kill-mode.
-3D didn't kill Sonic, shitty games did (Adventure 1 & 2 were awesome)

Timed underwater stealth escort missions will always be the worst.
Can you tell me what game has that in it? I am curious.
OT: You will be ridiculed for what ever preference you have in weapons/items/armors/abilities by at least one person who disagrees with your choices.
MGS2 also has one. Every time I play that part I end up shooting Emma in the face in frustration at least ten times.

All in the title. What generally accepted gaming facts to you believe in/you have grown to believe?

My top three:

1. Whether people like it or not, Halo has made enough money to warrant it's popularity.
2. Some of the best RPGs you'll ever play will be Bioware RPGs.
3. Gabe Newell ate HL2E3.

and

Duke Nukem: Forever is never coming out.

Your turn.
You need to change the title. Replace facts with opinions. Just because you believe in something doesn't make it fact, and I agree with you one and two, though they aren't facts.

Players always stockpile rare/powerful consumables for "a time they'll really need it" and never end up using them.
I'm very guilty of this
I have about 100 magical items in oblivion that I kept for later :)

you dont need to play the previous final fantasy to know the story for the one in question. (unless the one in question has a roman numeral followed by the number 2)

If you don't count all the games, back in the day when that phrase was first started, I had all 151, from legitimate catching and trading. So, at one time, I had caught'em all.

in third person games the right analog stick is for the camera. all other uses of it will be troublesome.

Minecraft/Tetris/Bejewled/Most other Popccap games are really addictive.

Sure here you go.

Sorry, I'm just the type of person that likes kill any chance that someone might come in here and think the whole facts thing is serious, which I guarantee will happen.

New Rule:

In a video Gaming thread, if you don't explicitly go out of your way to say "I think" or "In my opinion" someone will freak out at you because they think you don't know the difference between facts and opinions.

Currency can take any form, but there will be no tax, because everyone seems to have their own vault or bottomless pockets. It is the equivilent of benefit fraud, unless the government no longer exists or you are just TOO rebel.

If you have played Pikmin and do not resent any creature which managed to kill any of your pikmin - you have no soul.

Amongst the plebians, you are not a gamer if you do not play Halo or Call of Duty. Therefore, you are a ***** if you cannot play it to a certain standard.

Where there be zombies, there will probably be a zombie behind you, even if you just looked over your shoulder a second ago and saw nothing.

Usually when your game lags to load for a moment during gameplay, that zombie just appeared out of thin air to help you fill your man nappy.

The ability to hear 'orbs' talk in Fable 3 will always be tedious.

You will never be the '1' in '1 vs 100' on XBox Live. Not sure if they cancelled it, which would only confirm my point, but I thought it was about as likely as winning the lottery.

If it is online, playing against you and it has a high pitched voice, it should die.

Same.. in 1999 on Pokemon Blue.. Then when I went to a track and field meet at another school someone went through my bag and stole my Green GBC, Pokemon Blue and LoZ: Link's Awakening. Though they did take the batteries out of my GBC and leave them in my bag >.>

Probably had their own rechargable battery pack. Obviously a pre-meditated crime.

if you are good at a multiplayer game and tell your friend that you are good when you play together you will be crap.
In addendum, one of the "novices" at any video game gathering will always either win or come second to "that guy". That guy who obsesses over the game, plays it constantly and has unlocked everything beforehand.

The average person has the ability to hold several thousand pounds of gold coins on thier person without any physical burden on their bodies.
This can lead to needing a bigger wallet though. Somehow that helps.

if at anypoint, you are forced to do a task or quest by someone of the opposite gender, before the games done youll be in love and do it anyway,

if the music crescendos in a game you will flail round in panic, even if nothings there,

pokemon games are fun, but there the exact same every time, stop pretending there not.

man are built like shitbrick houses, women are petite, skinny and well endowed.

just because its pitched as a horror game, doesnt mean it will be scary
