Don't you love playing a video game and having a chuckle at the silly things it deems possible in contradiction to the laws of reality? Granted the more science fictional games stretch reality further than say a sim, but it's still fun to point out. So here's the fun question, What off the wall things have been deemed possible by video games? Be sure to specify a game for added fun.

1.Nathan Drake from Uncharted taught me that with finger strength alone, I can stop a long fall or catch a far away cliff.
2.Modern day shooters has taught me that by simply hiding from further wounds, I can automatically heal my current wounds.
3.Snake showed me eating canned rations is a great way to recover from bullet wounds.
4.Pipes are a great mode of transportation, so says Mario.
5.Final Fantasy showed me that by simply applying medication to a zombie, will in effect kill it... or would that be live it.. or revive... Makes it disappear!

How about you all? What does Video Games do to break reality for you? It could be applied to real life, or just be silly!

That good Zerul Smile Here's mine:

1. Skyrim has taught me many things like how to pickpocket, sneak and lockpick. Its taught me that nearly every law enforcer used to be like me, than they got seriously injured. And it taught me that I can be leader of anything and everything. Also if I shout at things, my problems will go away.

2. God of War taught me that I will heal after killing people.

3. Kingdom Hearts has taught me to carry a key with me everywhere.

and 4. Fruit Ninja taught me to slice with my finger.

Recently I beat Uncharted:GA and I had WTF moment when platforming. I see where I have to jump in the game and I'm like "There is no way I'm making" for the hell of it I make the jump and I'm very I made it. Its like Bend Studios gave Drake some super jumping abilities or something no normal man could jump that far with Nate's experience in platforming.

Video games make it possible for me to make stupid decisions and see the consequences without acting experiencing them Tongue

as well as dying multiple times. XD

1. Collecting seven gems will turn you into a Super Saiyan
2. Go through enough gene therapy and you can lift ridiculously huge swords and survive headshots
3. Punching bricks will yield coins
4. Mushrooms can make you tall
5. If you die entering atmo, a shady pro-human splinter organization can bring you back good as new!
6. Shouting is magic!
7. Adventuring without parental supervision is okay, every kid is doing it!
8. Love can bloom on the battlefield
9. One man can take on the world
10. Heavy metal can literally melt your face off

That's all I got for now. Kudos to those who can guess all the references 'cause I'm too lazy to name them. Tongue

No matter how many times you are shot, if you hide and wait for 10 seconds or so, it'll be like you were never shot at all. (Reference: Most games with guns in)

New one (bug related). If I run into a wall just right, I can fall indefinitely to my death.

Funny stuff guys, keep it up!

1.Animals can carry objects like weapons and money.
2.Save before taking on your boss, you may need to start over. (RPGs)
3.You can never run out of ammunition while hanging from a cliff or rope. (Uncharted:GA)
4.When hostiles spot you, just leave the immediate area, they can't follow you! (MGS)

Even after fighting many enemies in Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2, I always recover fully like it never happened. Weird how that works. Also, saves give me the heals and allow for transportation?
