Generally Accepted Gaming Facts

[Eadd]

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]

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.

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.

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

 

[MalevolentJim]

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

That one's excellent, and completely true!

1.All racing games, more or less,are the exact same.
2.If a game is Japanese, it's going to be melodramatic.
3.All FIFA games, more or less, are the exact same.

 

[BlackStar42]

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

Oh so, so true.

The usefulness of a weapon is inversely proportional to how much of the story you have completed, i.e by the time you have all the good guns, you've almost beaten the game and have no time to enjoy them.

1. You WILL save the world at some point in time. It doesn't matter if it's from a world-eating dragon (Skyrim!), or an army of space squids (Mass Effect), you will invariably, at some point in time, save the world/worlds/your own small portion of the world.

2. If you're into RPGs, then, essentially, you're into Bioware.

3. Xbox Live is dominated by sarcastic teenagers who use the word '******' like a machine gun.

4. Peter Molyneux always has a negative effect on his own games. Lionhead should really lock him up, or something.

 

[Au Naturel.]

in any FPS or 3rd person shoters, if you get shot point blank by any weapon its possible to survive if you hide in a cornor for 5 seconds.

Put on the song 'Katamari on the Rocks' and listen while watching your avatar dance. It's... awesome...

OT : Snow levels are always the most enjoyable levels!

 

[The_Deleted]

Someone you trust and have a backstory with will fuck you over.

 

[fearofsleep]

always support valve
okami is under appreciated

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Underwater levels suck.

Affirmative, Megatron. Hydrogen Oxide interferes with our circuitry.

 

[Antonio Torrente]

cheap deaths doesn't make a game hard, it's just annoys you

 

[SteakHeart]

Touhou Project finds its way into everything, and yet nobody will know what's going on when the lolis show up.

All "bad" games have a small cult following.

All "good" games have a dedicated group who will trash it no matter what.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

I don't care if I get a little bonus gift, I will never pre-order a game.

May I inquire why?

I'm extremely picky about what games I get (as of this writing, I only have four). I never assume a game is worth buying before it comes out. I would rather wait for it get released, then make a decision based on the feedback.

That's a pretty damn fair reason not to like. I've only ever pre-ordered 3 games myself, but I absolutely love getting a game I've looked forward to a couple days early with a little bonus. Each to their own.

 

[No_Remainders]

Stealth elements are always bad, unless it's the original Splinter cell.

Fixed it for ya

 

[The Hot Sauce Thief]

1- The cake is a lie
2-If i win, im a haX0r..
3-Close combat will always ALWAYS kill, and sometimes be more effective than a bullet
4-Bioware RPGs are always good and i will always buy them

 

[omega 616]

1. Whether people like it or not, Halo has made enough money to warrant it's popularity.

I think you just worded that badly. I think it would be better to put "It's made enough money to prove it's popular", the way you have it worded makes it sound like if it's made money it should be popular.

On topic. JRPG's aren't RPG's. (even though they are ...)

Horror games aren't scary.

(as proven by the "No pc demo for bulletstorm" thread) PC gamers have an air(?) of superiority.

(proven again by the same thread) All PC games are ruined by consoles.

 

[Death916]

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.

'X' or 'A' is ALWAYS 'Jump' unless it's Bethesda!

Or if it's the Powerpuff Girls lol.
Edit: OT: The enemy's gate is down!

woah enders game fan?

But um, if your implanted with a demon symbiote you will be powerful enough to battle God or satan
