Doom: Shoot at two-dimensional sprites for like 50 levels that look kinda the same. Then you fight a big two-dimensional sprite that'll kill you a few times before you beat it by moving sideways really fast.CaptOfSerenity said:
Doom 2: Do the exact same thing, but this time the boss is a wall that talks backwards.
Final Doom: Do the same thing, but this time the developers made it harder.
World of Warcraft: Spend a few days doing fetch quests and grind quests until you're level 85. Then you get to fight other players in special areas or attain the privilege of scheduling a boss fight in a special zone and play a larger fight where you have to follow lots of rules to win. Then when you win you get the chance of getting a new piece of gear if it drops and if the raid leader likes you enough. You also collect money to buy faster mounts to make grinding/fetching faster.
Hitman Series: You kill people and wear clothing to get by guards to kill more people. You can have cool guns, but you get a better score if you never ever ever use them. Instead you get a piece of wire.
Final Fantasy 6: Use magic, swords, power tools, and playing cards to beat a clown. It also has airships and giant chickens
Final Fantasy 7: Use magic, larger swords, and magic balls to beat an emo with mommy issues. There's another airship, and you can make the giant chickens have sex to get better giant chickens. And yet another tacked on love story.
Half Life: Walk down halls, push buttons, kill crabs and zombies. Then you fight a giant head.
Half Life 2: Walk through cities, push buttons, pick up crates to make 50 kinds of see-saws. Then you fight a few airships and blow up panels on a tower and you win.
Tetris: Blocks fall. You try to stack them.
Morrowind: Get off a boat, find a junkie spy, find a box, find a skull, find some guys in a big confusing city, learn that you're a dead guy, get a disease, get cured, get a bunch of families to like you, get a bunch of natives to like you, use a glove, dagger, and hammer to destroy heart and you win. There's tons of merchants but the only ones worth selling things too are a talking crab and a scamp that likes playing the drums. You can fly too, but the load times in the open world make that hard.
Oblivion: Get saved by Jean Luc Picard with hair. Watch Picard die. Give a monk Picard's magic necklace. Find Picard's bastard. Take the bastard to some samurai. Find four books. Kill some guys in a cave and find a magic book. Find a big magic elf stone. Find a piece of armor. Go through a big demon door and get a big demon stone. Wait for an elf to talk a lot then kill him and get Picard's necklace. Give it to the bastard and he turns into a dragon and banishes Goro from Mortal Kombat, and then you win.
Call of Duty series: Shoot guys around corners before they shoot you. Get made fun of if you lose.
Halo series: Throw grenades better than people throwing grenades at you. Get made fun of if you lose.
Battlefield series: Spend hours trying to learn to fly helicopters that don't do much anyway. You don't get made fun of if you lose, but only because people don't talk.
Fallout: Find a circuit board. Kill a mutant head under a church, and then you win.
Fallout 2: Find a magic briefcase. Kill the President of the United States, but he's evil so it's okay I guess. Then you win.
Fallout 3: Oblivion with guns. Once again you're fighting for more damn water. There's a big robotic Joe McCarthy.
Fallout New Vegas: Find a poker chip. Take the poker chip to robot Howard Hughes. Fight Romans.
