Things that are HARDER to do in games than in real life

[ChromeAlchemist]

Turning around.

Anything where you must use a wiimote will be harder to do in the game than IRL

What about firing a weapon?

 

[AvsJoe]

in most games killing people (not armored or anything)
i meen most real people die after one or two bullets shot anywhere in the torso or head but in games they can sometimes take a whole clip

I take it you have a lot of experience in murder.

 

[Hazy]

Not dying.

 

[Gebi10000]

aiming on the PS3 with a turret gun in hl2

 

[Saul B]

jumping over TINY WALLS which would offer a safer, shorter means of travelling than ploughing through the enemy fortress.

 

[Sejs Cube]

Climbing over waist-high walls.

Walking around or past modest obstacles.

Saying 'fuck this' and walking away.

Entering buildings with closed doors.

Driving a car.

Opening locked objects without the proper key.

Improvising weapons from things in your environment.

 

[Axeli]

Surving a gun fight without being shot. I'm mostly talking about FPSes, them being inherently like simulations of fighting one-eyed, one-eared, while having the motoric skills of a toddler.

 

[Megacherv]

But they're not actually doors, the Combine painted them on the walls to confuse Freeman. They may be evil dictators, but they're damn good artists

You,good sir,deserve a cookie.

Why thank you, I haven't eaten during the months it took me to come up with that

 

[MrGFunk]

Walking out of a designated area.

Pretty much.

Picking stuff up in First person view.

Whenever I pick stuff up I literally hold it in my hands. Never does it float a foot in front of me and bang around hitting the walls.

Have sex.
Open a door.
break a "FULLY DESTRUCTIBLE" window.
Kill a child (sorry about that one, but I HAD to include it )

 

[Gildedtongue]

Put books down on shelves, make minor changes to the positioning of things. I swear, seems like Bethesda thinks the most natural way to hold an object is the same manner as one would carry a dead rat, at arm's length and dangling away from the body.

 

[similar.squirrel]

Learning social skills, apparently.
In real life, you don't need to kill X amount of bears and allocate the points to Charisma.
I still fail, though.

 

[esperandote]

play video games!

edit: talk

 

[RemoteControlRox]

This one's probably been covered several times over, but...

Hopping or climbing over a short wall or fence.

 

[Justin00100]

Look up while holding a gun (I own a Wii)

 

[Magnatek]

Punching someone. Think about it. In games, we always end up doing more than that (for example, chucking grenades at people, slashing them to bits, nuking them), and in real life, punching someone is really all that most people can do.

 

[Just_Karol]

Obtaining an extra life.

wait how is that harder in a game?

Oh God, I mistook the forum the otherway around. Great, now I'm the laughing stock of the internet.
Thank for pointing for that out though, as long as I'm aware of my stupidity.
