Not really what you would call "Favorite" since it kinda spoils the story but, Bioshock:
So Fontaine sends Jack to the surface as a baby right? What happens when he gets to dry land and exits the sub? How did he survive alone, as an infant no less, on the surface? We learn that his memories of a family are fake, so he probably didn't live with anyone on the surface, how did he make it as a baby all the way to able-to-buy-a-plane-ticket-for-myself adulthood?
Also, how did Fontaine know where to send the package? Did he have someone tailing Jack his whole life?

Pong - The story makes no effort to even exist.
Borderlands - Not so much plot holes as massive annoyance in the story.
Halo Reach - How do all the Spartans now how to use Coventent weapons/viechels that they've never seen before.
Half Life - How does a random scientist have the power to destroy everything in his path?

Well The characters in Final Fantasy and most other RPG´s doesn´t really die in battle they just faint.King of the Sandbox said:
So the real question should really be Why don´t they die when they get hit by Huge swords and gun shots/ arrows?
They explain that Jack was given growth enhancement so by the time he was 2 he had grown to the age of 20. And considering Jack was a sleeper agent he probably subconsciously implanted a specific location for Jack to hide so he would always know where jack was.wouldyoukindly99 said:
Probably the one in Amnesia: The dark descent.
In the ending where you play as Daniel backtracking his way out of the castle. If the elevator broke on the way down, how is it possible to get back out? I like this plot hole though because, though it doesn't make sense, I love the sense of closure you get from that particular ending.
It isn't the first time they have encountered them. When they run into them they say "Oh snap the Covenant". Reach was the first time they really went all out on a planet like that. It is assumed that they had several run ins with them before hand.Euhan01 said:
If you got that idea from Yahtzee's review, you may want to take some of his reviews with a grain of salt. He likes pretending that games don't explain things just to have more things to complain about.
It's not really a plot hole, just something i don't quite understand
in Lost Odyssey, why the hell does Jansen stick around?
everybody hates him (bar Ming but even she never says anything nice to him)
Seth even keeps kicking him up the arse constantly all the way through the game
Ming, Sarah, kaim and Seth have to stick around to beat Gongora, i get that
Mack and Cooke have no family other than kaim and sarah so they have to stick around
Sed is Seth's son and has a ship which the others NEED
and Tolten needs Gongora defeated so he can reclaim his kingdom
But Jansen? i just don't get it, there's no reason whatsoever for him to be there
he even moans that he doesn't want to be there any of the time

Its a well known fact that flags in fact interfere with quantum processes while armour and guns do not. Do you want your character to rematerialise fused with the flag?The_root_of_all_evil said:
Jak and Daxter: Oh man, time travel right? So it is hinted strongly that:
Jak is in fact Mar
If he is mar and he picked up Mar's old armour in the future then he must have left it at some point in the past
There are also a few involving the child that is Mar's descendant in the future and what happens to him.
To be honest its more a plot hole with every game rather than just Halo. Most games you tend to be a rather basic rookie or uber solider, but you also have every type of possible training for every event, from Sniper skills to how to commanding helicopters and jet planes, which do take along time to train in.Thomas Guy said:
Any Rpg where you are told to travel across the world to get to some far off legendary place. Only when you look on the map its just over tall a mountain range from where you started :| Alot of Jrpgs do this but Grandia in particular.
