[MacTavish_Son]

It's not a Metal Gear without me reading a book out of sheer boredom.
It's not a Kingdom Hearts unless I................. Sorry, Either never finish, or finish after giving up for 7 or so months.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

It's not a Mario RPG without a Hammer and getting to play as Princess Peach at some point.

It's not Zelda if there's a jump button.

It's not Konami without The Code.

It's not Worms without the banana bomb/holy hand grenade.

It's not Mother 3 if it has an American release.

 

[-Drifter-]

It's not a Ninja Gaiden game without me getting bored and turning off the console.
It's not an Elder Scrolls game without unbearably terrible combat.
It's not a Metal Gear Solid game without an elite squad of unessesary bosses.
It's not a Resident Evil game if I'm playing it.
Sorry, I can't think of any positive ones right now.

It's not a Final Fantasy game without Chocobos.

It's not an awesome game unless I say so.
It's not a good game if Yahtzee says it isn't.

its not a JRPG game without you being the "only one" that can save the world

that's every rpg game....even the table top versions.

Whew, that's why our RP group avoids that. The largest thing we've ever saved was a commune of about 10 people (we play MERP).

It's not a Madden game without being the same as last year's.
It's not a Call of Duty game without a Cpt. Price.

 

[Craig FTW]

It's not a Kingdom Hearts game without killing the 3rd to last boss in the game with a stupid Goofy gang move.

It's not a Sonic game without dying from poking something while not holding a ring.

It's not Zelda without a Triforce.

Not true. The Triforce wasn't mentioned in Link's Awakening, Majora's Mask, the Oracle Series, Four Sword Adventures, or Minish Cap. ...or Twilight Princess come to think of it, they made references to it, but didn't actually refer to it as the Triforce.

You have officially been out-nerded canadamus prime. Please turn in your membership card on the way OUT.

Actually no I haven't, since if you quote me correctly I SAID they referred to the Triforce in TP, they just didn't refer to it AS the Triforce. Or to be more precise, they made references to what in previous games was called the Triforce, but in TP was not named as such.

Oh my bad I actually meant the guy that you responded to. Juven Ignus. There we are.

Holy shit, how to be original here...

It's not Il2 Sturmovik if your plane isn't burning.

So what are some fairly nonsensical things about games that seem to have make an appearance in every game in a series? An example of such nonsensical things include, Lord Badguy's Evil Factory of Doom blowing up for no reason other than you beat the crap out of Lord Badguy. This seems to happen in a lot of games, especially games by Capcom.


It's not a Mega Man game without having to re-fight all of the bosses near the end.
It's not a Devil May Cry game without Dante getting impaled.
It's not a Starcraft game without having to CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS

It is not a cesar game unless PLEBS ARE NEEDED!!!
