"The enemies are the ones right there. As there name implies, they will try to kill you."

Box pops up: Hint: Kill them first!

Also, "Make sure you don't walk off the edge of the building, it will kill you!"

Gee thanks Navi, I would have never been able to figure that out without you. *rolling eyes*

Play Klonoa, whether it be the original PS1 game or the Wii-remake. I shouldn't even need to explain.

This is from an RP MMO called PlaneShift and it's WONDERFUL tutorial

"The red one is your health bar. If your health drops to low, you will die."

Or fire emblem.

"This is an archer. Archers attack using a bow and arrow"

Really? NO SHIT! No wonder the spear command doesn't work with them!

"Archers are long range unit, they can attack further then a melee unit"

HOLY FUCK! MY WORLD JUST TURNED UPSIDE DOWN!

"your health is low you should drink a potion" or variation
Oh god why did you have to remind me.

"Your health is low. Don't you have any potions? Or food?"

Fuck that was horribly annoying. At least Lionhead made fun of that in Fable 2.

"Saving content. Do not shut down or unplug your computer."

"Taking cover is a good strategy to use when under fire."

"If you walk into someone line of sight, they will see you."

EDIT: And in Resident Evil 4, after getting your head sawed off: "YOU ARE DEAD".

'Your health decreases when you take damage' (I never would have guessed) followed up by the widely used 'when your health reaches zeo, you are dead'.

I also have an issue with any in-game hints that are taken directly from the instruction manual (normally these are ones that detail what the controls are).

I didn;t see the point of the collectable hints in Prototype seeing as by the time you've collected one you've probably already learned and mastered what the hint was going to supposedly teach you (it may have sounded good in theory but in practice it was kinda pointless).
