So, for those who don't know, many art students (when we aren't dying from lack of sleep and overwork) are totally into video gaming. I recently started getting into it with the help of my boyfriend. So, while there are maybe only one or two games that I'm really any good at, I can say that I'm starting to get a lot better as a whole. So, I thought I'd take the opportunity to list some of the humorous and interesting things that I've learned from video games...
1. The Soul Calibur universe believes in big boobs, magic incorporation to all types of martial arts, badass/totally unpractical attacks, and S&M.
2. Throwing a grenade at a closed window will not shatter the glass, but it will make for some laughs
3. The double-tap rule almost always applies in zombie games unless you use a sniper rifle or a rocket launcher.
4. Crazed men chasing you with chainsaws make normal zombies look like Bugs Bunny
5. According to Bayonetta and Donte, all demon-killing must be done in style.
6. In Mass Effect 1, you are guaranteed to spend at least a half an hour just figuring out where you're supposed to be going.
7. Men in Skyrim are much more polite to you if your character is a woman.
8. Dragons in any game are always cool and hard to kill.
9. The name Ezio is to always be highly respected.
10. Leon and the merchant from Resident Evil are actually the same person (now we know how he randomly pulls out rocket launchers).
11. Men in video game world usually have two things - dashing good looks & impossible bad ass moves
12. Military character customization for women equals a choice between ugly and uglier.
13. Women in video games (save for Bayonetta) are usually grossly underestimated.
14. Death is made funnier whenever Toby Turner is the one playing.
15. The meaning of life is a moldy squid sandwich.
16. Cool characters usually have issues
17. You can build anything.... and I mean anything in minecraft.
18. (in response to 17) said object built in minecraft may end up crashing your computer.
19. If your character can jump, the laws of gravity don't usually apply.
20. The hero can fly before laying down an amazing and outrageous finishing move.
So, I think that's about all I have. :) Merry Christmas, guys!
