Generally Accepted Gaming Facts

[Lem0nade Inlay]

You never have to face the consequences for your war crimes.

The Water Temple is equivalent to receiving a colonoscopy from Edward Scissorhands

You know, I hear a lot of shit about the Water Temple, but I didn't think it was all that bad.
So either my memory is bit foggy (very possible), or I'm just better at Legend of Zelda (also very possible) [insert smug face]

Mario jumps
Links slashes
Samus shoots
Megaman has awesome music
Kratos is angry
Belmonts fight vampires
A is to jump
Headshots equal dead for zombies
Upupdowndownleftrightleftright BA = 30 lives
One must shout Tonda Gossa before a concert to really get it started

"A is to jump"
Not entirely true, one of my first video games ever was Bomberman Pocket for the GameBoy, a standard side-scroller except A was place bomb and B was jump. Otherwise I completely agree.

Cutscenes or Trailers will always look a hell of a lot better than the actual gameplay.

 

[Tsukikagenoknight]

People can jump on thin air, but only once. (See any platforming game)
A 2 foot deep puddle of Water is more fatal then several clips of bullets and grenades.

Michael Atkinson is an assclown.
3D rapes Sonic.
If a character can't gain XP in an RPG, they are temporary, and will be as close to naked as they can get by the end of the level.

A new Madden game will be released every year
A new NCAA game will be released every year
A new NBA game will be released every year
A new NHL game will be released every year
A new MLB game will be released every year
A new PGA game will be released every year

These games will feature updated rosters, possibly slightly upgraded graphics, generally a new play mechanic or two. The games will not be worth 60 dollars each new. The previous model year's value will drop to almost nothing.

Don't forget a new COD game will be released every year.

"A" means Yes and "B" means No.

LoZ:OOT Master Quest was made by someone who had some REALLY quality drugs. (Have you SEEN the cow-laden Jabu-Jabu area?!? What the heck kinda stuff was he on?!?)

FPS games always had people acting like the nine classes in TF2 during multiplayer...even before there WAS a TF2.

The main protagonist of any fantasy based RPG will always...ALWAYS be armed with a sword from the outset.

A Pokémon MMO would be a major money maker for Nintendo and Game Freak...even if the game (and perhaps its creators) will be a bit unbalanced.

And finally...

Our princess is in another castle.

 

[Skratt]

QTEs suck.
Escort quests suck.
and finally, bad controls are not an acceptable substitute for actual difficulty.

What he said, plus MMO grinding needs to die, but is neigh unkillable.

-People will always find something to complain about, so you're better off playing the game yourself then trusting reviews.

Too true! When it comes down to it, the only person whose opinions matter about the game is your own.

Zelda Ocarina of Time was the mother-*****! Must be your memory dude. Dust off the N64 and prepare your bum bum for some not so fun times!

 

[Jaidenator]

Halo and COD will ALWAYS be enemies

 

[Mistermixmaster]

Quick Time Events are fun
Escort missions suck
And always assume that the main protagonist got Super Drowning Skills [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SuperDrowningSkills]...

Well, that's my three personal gaming facts, that I know is true, because I have yet to see something that will change my view of these facts.

 

[matrox]

You'll never get used to press "O" in a Japanese PS game instead of "X".

 

[Dr. Win]

There will always be retards who try to quickscope in BFBC2.
Valve will never make a SP and MP game, either one or the other (L4D is kinda more of a multiplayer game.)
Bioware games will always have good writing.
Suda 51 will be pretentious.

That's all I can think of for now.

 

[ilikepie59]

The usefulness of a weapon is inversely proportional to the amount of ammunition available for it.
