Ten Things Video Games Taught Me About Life

Found this on a forum and it gave me a laugh, so I thought I'd share it with you:

  1. Eating fruit not only aids digestion and a healthy physique, but it also allows you to consume ghosts without chewing. (Pacman)
  2. Being a jedi and strong in the force means you never need to eat, shit, or have a shower. (Knights Of The Old Republic)
  3. If you're holding a crowbar, nobody will dare object to you being a deaf/mute. (Half-life)
  4. You can't jump while carrying ten large-scale weapons in your backpack. (Doom)
  5. You CAN jump while carrying ten large-scale weapons in your backpack. (Half-life)
  6. Dead human corpses are 'containers', and can be used to store guns and crystals! (Knights Of The Old Republic)
  7. You can recover from life-threatening wounds by consuming an entire ham. (Final Fight)
  8. It is normal and indeed, expected to find large rotating boxes hovering in mid-air which will inexplicably heal you. (any game ever, but particularly Metal Gear Solid)
  9. When fighting the forces of evil, it is gentlemanly to wait your turn to smash the other guy in the face. (Final Fantasy)
  10. Kicking really fast causes your feet to catch fire. (Street Fighter II)
If you enjoyed that, then definitely give The Laws of RPGs a read. Some of them are extremely hilarious and well worth the read, I promise you.
