Basicly you post what you have learned from video games (examples

Monsters that have no hands carry swords, shields, (human) money, among other things. (Final Fantasy)

A half dead unit is just as good as a perfectly healthy one. (starcraft)

um......people are born with blue hair and women never have sufficient armor yet some how can survive jsut as well as a fully armored man(pretty much any japanese rpg)

All exceptionally powerful people somehow lose the bulk of their abilities whenever they travel with you.

People that live in small towns with only 1 inn, weapon shop, and item shop, often only have 1 thing to say.

The farther you go from your point of origin, the more powerful the monsters and other people around you are.

When in doubt, always kill stuff to earn extra experience.

Any spell can be made more powerful by adding and increasing a number on the end of it. (ie Fire -> Fire 2 -> Fire 500)

The fate of the world always rests in your hands.

Look through other people's belongings to find useful quest items, such as healing potions and equipment.

You can walk into anyones home (because houses are always unlocked) and take whatever items/money they have "hidden" in and around their house (The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past)

I can impale you, knock you off into a pit of spikes, get you hit by a subway train, smash you into a wafer, rip you in half and decapitate you.... but you still will be in the sequel. (Mortal Kombat)

When you hear the phrase "**** you", you're doing what you're supposed to be doing. -Any online FPS game.

A nade in a game can take your hearing just as well as a nade in real life. -Day of Defeat: Source

Killing people is only wrong if you don't move from one spot while doing it. -Any online FPS game.

It is possible to jump in the air, fire guns at 2 people, reload, and hit the ground in the prone position firing again, without even bruising yourself... on concrete, broken glass, bushes, you name it.

Barrels make excellent cover. (A.I.)
or
Stay the hell away from barrels (especially any brightly-colored ones). (you)

Brakes are for sissies.

Little blue potions can make all your troubles disappear.

Don't worry about picking the right mushroom - they are all magically delicious.

When the shit hits the fan, run back the way you came from and hide (also keeping an eye out for any medpacks you left laying around).

There are many species of large birds that make excellent mounts.

If you have a choice, grab the biggest sword you can find. If it only weighs as much as a VW bug, you might get laughed at.

People are hollow.

I learned to speak English

Thank you Ultima V

Lampshade · Feb 10, 2006, 06:58 AM // 06:58

I can dodge bullets by jumping 2 feet in the air (CS:S)
Villagers with knives can take down stone walls (AoE 2)
No matter how small,skinny,skin exposed someone is, they can always weild a 60 pound sword and not get killed with a hit (Anime)
The good guys never get hit by those "random shots in the backround", only heroic or tragic scenes by another main character can kill off bad guys (Action movies)

While this isn't actually oriented towards games, it holds true in some cases. Those of you who are anime fans will love this:

Enjoy.

Dieing is not that big of a deal, I just have to wait for the respawn. ( Pretty much any FPS or Online Rpg)

Battles are not won with 2 people defeating 98 thousand foes - Rome: Total War

Archers Can shoot point blank with a warrior with an axe slashing at them, their bows seem to be of some sort of ultimate polymer metal that prevents an axe or sword from cutting them in half -Guild Wars

If it wasn't for you, Ascalon Would of fallen, The White Mantle Would of lost the chosen when there carvan broke up, the shining blade would of never got the henge of denravi, The Dredrimor Dwarves woulda lost to the Stone Summit, and basicly everything depends on you your like Atlas , the whole world on your sholders. WTF would the world be without you - Guild Wars

Swords Can Burn and still be perfectly usuable- Guild wars

Pretty much anything can fit in my backpack. Including horses.

Only people with green arrows over their heads have anything interesting to say.

Eating a hamburger will heal my broken arm, as well as the 3 inch deep gash in my stomach.

You've know you've learned something important when your little green bar gets fuller.

Tsunami Rain · Feb 10, 2006, 07:49 AM // 07:49

You Arn't Leet. AI's Just Suck. (CS:S and basicly every other fps with bots)

Ultimate_Gaara · Feb 10, 2006, 08:09 AM // 08:09

If your losing the war just join the other team, or better yet leave. ( Pretty much any FPS game)

Potions can cure anything even stab wounds. (Diablo 2)

Walk, don't run, even if you are being chased by the lord of terror himself. ( Diablo)

Owning a giant cow is not as easy as it seems ( Black and White)

Other people's lives are much more intresting than your own ( The Sims)

TheEPIC · Feb 10, 2006, 08:38 AM // 08:38

Hyperdramatic music with choir vocals in an unrecognizable language makes every scene cooler (anything from Japan).

Anyone of any stature in a "good" religion is really working for the "bad" religion (Grandia 2, and many other RPGs)

Chickens are hyper powerful and have many friends hell bent on seeing you dead if you harm their buddies in any way. (Zelda games)

Dead bodies magically dissapear after a couple of minutes. (any game)

BBoy_Manchild · Feb 10, 2006, 09:34 AM // 09:34

rumors are ALWAYS true

your hometown ALWAYS gets destroyed

its impossible to just step over a rock or chair that is blocking your path

cheaters always win

the bad guys look cooler and have black or silver hair

good guys are pansies with blond hair

people build huge towers and dungeons in the middle of nowhere, strange as it might seem but you always find them and feel the urge to investigate

buy a cd player/mp3 player cause video game music sucks

and a special one:
people with spears on horses can easily take down a german tank (every game with the name "EMPIRE" in the title IE: EMPIRE earth and EMPIRE dawn of the modern world)
