[Leah]

in L.A. Rush, i learned that L.A. is in 5 different sections

[Mofo Rising]

Bactine and *ahem* "green herb" can cure any and all bodily injuries.

The RESIDENT EVIL series.

Shooting someone in the torso 4 or 5 times will only slow them down momentarily.

- Every FPS out there.

[Doggett]

I'm a coward.


I've leaned that fom every horror game I've played.

[Trevor]

In the arcade game of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ~ watch where you're going, you might fall in a manhole.

That part always cracks me up:

1. Dumb ass turtle falls or gets knocked into a manhole.
2. All you see are a pair of eyes in the darkness.
3. Turtle complains: "Duhhhh......who put the lights out?" 

In "Pooyan" ~ never take on gum-chewing wolves with a bow and arrow: they will take you out with fruit. 

In "Duke Nukem" ~ never stand anywhere near anything made of porcelain as you will probably pee into it.

I give you Karma Bull, this was a great idea for a fun topic.

Silent Hill - I have learned - if you see something like this in a dark corner shaking and moaning ...



DON"T investigate it! ... RUN! (really really fast)

[the ghoul]

Use cheat codes, because  kicking ass and playing the whole way through is always more fun than getting killed early on and having to start over.  I like easy games with a lot of violence and destruction.

[Javakoala]

I've learned that, no matter HOW MANY times you get shot with ANY kind of weapon, you can use a health pack and ALL your boo-boos go bye-bye.

I've learned that carjacking is apparently not illegal if there are no cops around to see it.

I've learned that a person can carry up to five weapons of any size and that they apparently can hide them up their butt because they aren't slung over their shoulders.

And I've learned that healing magic users, much like red shirts on Star Trek, will usually be the first to die in a fight.

[Psycho Circus]

You can survive being hit with a broadsword about 5 or six times, but can be killed instantly by a combination of kicks.

[ghouck]

You can buy ammo that fits the weapon your enemy uses, but not the weapon itself. That you have to steal off a corpse.

You can carry a large sniper rifle, two pistols, night vision goggles, a bomb defusing kit, a Kevlar helmet, bulletproof vest, two smoke grenades and two flash grenades, but the best thing to have, a frag grenade, , you only get one of those.

Counter Strike

[Psycho Circus]

Humans can breathe the air on Mars

[Doggett]

Guards don't find anything strange about mysterious boxes that follow them around the room....

[Mr. DS]

Guards don't find anything strange about mysterious boxes that follow them around the room....

Thank you...that never made sense to me.

You can eat a bunch of pellets and fruit but never get fat or slow down (Pacman)
Leaping over cobras and scorpions is the best option when traversing the jungle.  (Pitfall)
Quicksand can disappear allowing you to cross if you wait long enough (Pitfall again)

[Jack]

After someone's been dead for about 10 seconds, they just vanish!

[Mr. DS]

If you get your car painted, the police will stop chasing you.  
A car can survive until it is on fire.
Ammo is unlimited and will only leave you upon death.
If blocks ever fly out of the sky, all you have to do to get rid of them is arrange them correctly.
Eating mushrooms will help you grow to twice your size.
Most movies are better off just staying movies.
