A vast open world is only good/interesting if it's varied, and people will never realise this (Oblivion)
I agree with this but even though morrowind has a great a varied world that seems like you are in a imaginary world it has horrible horrible gameplay.

It did hurt, but not that bad... I mean, my ass is still intact. Mostly...

- Bioware RPGs will always be awesome (and I will always buy them).
- Valve takes about 50 years to make any game, but you will play it for as long a time.
- Direct movie adaptations suck
- The cake is a lie

In the gaming community, "Being made by Nintendo/Being on the Wii" is a perfectly acceptable reason to not like a game. I don't like this fact, but it is what it is.

JRPG characters will have absurd hair. This isn't as true as it used to be, but it's a stigma that will haunt JRGPs forever.

People will ***** about the lack of creativity in the gaming industry. Then, when a truly original, creative game comes out, barely any of these people will actually buy them.

If the boss has a glowing area, it is the only weakness!
If it's Hack n' Slash, it's a God of War rip-off. I don't agree with this, but everyone says it.
What Metropocalypse said about the X/A is Jump thing.

I know the hack'n'slash franchise has been renamed the 'God of war rip off' I hate this it's like if they renamed the FPS franchise 'call of duty rip off' and every time yatzhe reviewed an fps he would use his 'like call of duty but...' stamp.

In RPGs, someone almost always dies or reveals themselves as a traitor in the first town/tutorial level, be it your parents, your brother, your sister, your mentor, your allies in your terrorist cell, Emperor Uriel Septim, your fiancé, your best friend, and frequently the entire town where you grew up will get set ablaze.

Red flashy screens = near death. Even in third person.

Can you see liquid anywhere near you? Is this liquid any colour other than clear blue? Then it will damage your health to go in it.

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.

Nobody is on PSN
Everyone on XBLA is either under 12, a douche, or, occasionally an escapist
TF2 is the best hat collection simulator ever
If I disagree with you, I am a ******
Music cues everything

And most importantly, if I win I cheated

I had a T-shirt that said this,

If there is a girl in a video game, they are either inept and need saving constantly, or they are a capable of kicking your ass without trying.

and a suplement to the second part, these female characters will 90% of the time have ungodly large breasts that jiggle uncontrolably.

Timed underwater stealth escort missions will always be the worst.
This. They will always result in more broken controllers/TV's/siblings/windows than any other missions.

Red barrels explode.

Underwater sections cannot be good.

You will never enjoy an escort mission.

Valve are lazy, and will mod their flagship game endlessly instead of making anything new...

...however, they create jobs for said modders, creating some of the better games to play, and when forced to do actual work, are capable of revolutionary leaps forward.

The Halo community don't deserve Bungie.

Call of Duty games, despite no real improvements, will sell eleventy million copies every new installment. (don't get me wrong, I like the franchise, but it's taking the piss now).
Call of Duty, despite all the hatred, are still much better games than people give them credit for.
