[captainwolfos]

Your nocturnal perserverence has earned you a hidden gaming tip: GO TO BED.

Cookie for reference XD

house of the dead "looks like it will open if we shoot at it"
considering this is a game where ALL you can do is shoot at things

 

[Invariel]

In the instruction manual for the Megaman Anniversary Collection, you are rewarded with the following tip:

Hint: Megaman can jump and shoot at the same time.

 

[Toty54]

"Don't shoot teamates"

 

[Arbitrary Cidin]

"Tips will appear HERE on the screen"

 

[Sonic_Boom]

"When you run out of breath you will begin to drown"

 

[DazBurger]

USE FIRE FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE!

 

[Woodsey]

"Use the middle stick to dodge the Joker's gun."

What the fuck was with that one, I pressed retry and it carried on anyway?

Did anyone actually dodge it?

 

[esperandote]

"Tips will be displayed"

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

"Aim towards the Enemy."
-Instruction printed on US Rocket Launcher

"When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not our friend."
-U.S. Army Training Notice


I love these 2.

The most insulting ones, I find, are the ones that are presented after hours of gameplay. For example, Prototype was still teaching me how to move at around the 5th mission; you'd think I would have learned my lesson by then.

 

[TheRundownRabbit]

Attack the enemy


(no shit really)

 

[Tanfastic]

"The golden trail will lead you to where you need to go"

in fable 2.

 

[Darzen]

"DO A BARREL ROLL!"
starfox 64
OMG THAT WAS ANNOYING!!!

 

[Yoshemo]

You will die if you are killed

anyone remember this?

 

[AngloDoom]

"Press the JUMP button to jump!"

I despise games that do that.

"To crouch press the [Crouch] button. To stop crouching, press the [Crouch] button again."

Especially when it's actually written like that in the accursed manual as well.

 

[Fudgo]

"You can always lower the difficulty level in the menu."

Now they're just teasing me.

Dead Space, when you get your first weapon it reads on the wall Cut off the limbs. Then after you've killed about ten necromorphs, that military officer comes on yelling at you to cut them up. Well DUH!
