its these little elements that are going to start bleeding into games....

it should be that if you look down, and you dont see your feet, but its sunny out... you should lay down your gun and forfeit due to hallucinations...

and if you really were in ravenhelm, the creatures that come jumping over buildings and climb walls... yea, they would really kill you..

not if you're gordon freeman.

im not gordan freeman.

i think if the water is shallow in far cry, you take some damage.

In FarCry you take >75% damage even falling 5 feet, it seems

i would like to see elements in games where its like, you have 90% health, but your legs are broke.. hahahaha i liked in hl2 how it was like, major fracture detected.... a couple of times in hl2, i fell and died and it was llike, major fracture detected, and i thought to myself, just a fracture? i fell like50 feet!

The only way to save aerosmith is to use uzis that shoot out flamming CDs from the bottom. On occasion, you can turn the uzi into a machine gun.

If you pop a levitation potion, you can "fly". Looks real cool if you're on your mount.

I learned in the future, duct tape is non-existant.

 

[meltdown75]

i learned that i can waste unlimited amounts of time while actually feeling like i'm accomplishing something, ie. finishing the game.

Even while carrying all the other weapons, ammo, and spy stuff.



I also learned that on a stealth level a knife, silenced rifle, or silenced machine gun makes no sound. Neither does the rocket launcher (RtCW).

And even faster than that with a scout sniper rifle.

red shells are heat seeking, green ones aren't

your arms are immune to being hurt by fireballs, but dont let them hit your chest or legs

you need silver arrows to kill ganon

the princess is in another castle

another thing.... if you drive your car into traffic at 200 mph, youll probably just flip a couple of times, land upside down, then magicially respawn in the middle of the road, right side up, facing the right direction..

There's always a princess somewhere who needs saving. And as soon as you rescue her, she gets kidnapped yet again.

Camping is an effective guerilla warfare strategy.

People don't care if you run into their homes at any time of the day and start smashing barrels, opening dressers and drawers, or looking in bags for useful items.
Feathers can bring you back to life.
If life gets too bad, just hit the reset button.

There were no civilians in WW2

There is no need to recycle the clips that hold your ammo in real life combat situations. Every X number of rounds comes with a new clip.

Yes Virginia, it does take a while to individually put each shell into a pump action shotgun in real life too

If you jump out of a plane and push 9 before you hit the ground, you'll survive

While driving, you can go faster by driving very close to other vehicles, drifting around turns, or wrecking other drivers.
