Heres one:

Always play on Medium mode or higher; easy is for pussies, even if you can't beat anything else.

1)If NPCs are killable then they deserve to die the most twisted death you can think up.
2)You can't hit a girl. So stick to arrows, bullets and spells
3)If something wants to kill you and can, kill it first
4)If something wants to kill you but can't, kill it anyway. For good measure.
5)If something doesn't want to kill you, take your time and make it suffer before you kill it. Exp is Exp.
6)PK is your friend.
7)Anyone that says they're your friend outside of a pk area will pwn your face inside
8)You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
9)The only things more fun than old school rps are new school rps.
10)We don't talk about fight club.

Sooo true. I always play at medium, at least. I never ever play on easy, because I just don't feel as if I've accomplished something when I beat the game on easy. I have to beat it at a respectable difficulty level.

1. Kill anything that so much as moves a pixel.
2. If it's dead then another bullet won't hurt to make sure.
3. Acuracy is more important than fast reaction time.(Unless you're carrying a minigun)
4. Anything with a scope > anything without a scope.
5. Never cheat, it's like playing the game on easy with an enemy handicap.
6. It takes around 1 second to identify between friend and foe, shoot first, apologise later.
7. Use quicksave more often than fire.
8. If somebody TK's you, make them suffer.
9. It's not nice to slaughter noobs, but it sure as hell shouldn't stop you from doing it.
10. Conserve ammo, it makes bosses easier than their minions.

1-Don't use you big gun on that boss. There will probably be a bigger one around the corner.
2-It doesn't hurt to pick everything up
3-If it's alive. It can be made dead.
4-Always go down side-passages; there are normally hidden treasures
5-Aim for the face
6-If you're hurt, run away
7-The computer is stupid, just go round
I have a counter-example for 3. Fallout 3 children can't be killed.

I've recently started going for the hardest available difficulty there is available at first play, no matter what the game.
Me too, Unless I hear the game if ridiculous on it. Such as Unreal Tournment and such.

Wait 'till the gaming grandma kicks your ass.

Also, heavy weapons are always good unless they are iron.
Then they're just heavy.

Oh, two new ones:

X) Anyone who plays more than you/is better than you is a no-life loser who lives in their mother's basement and is covered in cheeto dust.
Y) Anyone who plays less than you/isn't as good as you is a noob who is not worthy of licking your bootprints, nevermind your boots.

Then you wait for them to grow up then kill them. Duh. But if for some reason they stay as children forever then you just play a game without immortal children and convince yourself it's fallout.

2. If someone can beat you online, they're cheating
3. Games that you suck at are stupid
4. If it bears any passing resemblance to a game on a different console, it is a clone, no matter how many unique ideas it has.
5. Gaming was better back in you day.
Your post made me smile.

These are off the top of my head

1. Kill everything
2. There is no such thing as overkill
3. Never give the noob a flame-thrower, a tank, or a rocket/grenade launcher
4. 12-year-olds on Xbox live are fuckin' annoying

1. All house rules apply.. (Unless house rules are impossibly retarded, i.e. all items on in SSBB. Then argue your point until you win.)
2. Noobs are to be exploited at all costs. They are cannon fodder, use them as such.
3. When playing Halo 3, please adopt your best 12-year old impression and cuss out the competition.
4. All game modes except CTF or TD are immature/gay/retarded/impossible.
5. When playing an FPS, tell anyone who kills you that you're going to kill them RL or rape them. They will fear you, and should.
6. When playing an MMO, anyone with better gear than you is twinked.
7. Anything at all possible to do in the game can and will be considered cheap/noobish/gay by another player. No exceptions.
8. When playing a Guitar Hero Rock-Off, the hardest song in the game must be selected, on Expert, and Hyperspeed. Dragonforce is preferred, but a guitarist battle will make do if you do not own GH:3.
9. Anything with similar gameplay/items/characters/world/etc. is automatically a carbon-copy.
10. When playing SSBB, please only use Metaknight.

1) Don't be a pussy. Use your best guns / spells/ whatever on the minions, than take on the boss with your bare hands /crowbar / a spoon. Not only does this make you a complete badass, brutalising weak minions is possibly the most satisfaction you can get out of a game. Seriously, if they are that weak, they deserve it.
2) Don't camp. Retards stay in the same position for an entire game. Be smart, stop, shoot someone, move.
3) Whore the vehicles. Even if it has space for a dozen comrades, steal it, drive it as fast as you can into the enemy stronghold, and try to make it explode near as many people as possible.
4) Team flashing is a must. If you're teamates can't win when blinded, they aren't worthy to be on your team.
5) You're the star of the match. Everyone else is there to get in your way. Remind them of this constantly.

5. Anything in SSBB is up for grabs
6. There are no cheap shots in fighting games
7. All move-based games and vice versa suck

#1 if you play on expert, bring a water bottle, you throat might get sore.
#2 if it glows, shoot it.
#3 big guns shoot hard, not long.
#4 if it glows, its probably magic.

11. When playing any RPG/MMO, if you do not have the newest gear, you are a *****. End of story.
12. When playing Halo, please scream camping noob whenever killed after coming around a corner or crossing the map.
13. Please swear as much as possible on XBL. The more you swear, the more hardcore you are.
14. You cannot "call" an item/weapon, it is up for grabs to anyone in the game. This includes the noob who has no idea how to use it.
15. In fighting games, please spam one move over and over, making it impossible for your opponent to move from his position. Mortal Kombat's sweep is good for this.
16. Any PC/Nintendo game is automatically gay/retarded/noobish/not up to graphics standards.
17. Graphics > Gameplay.
18. In any game whatsoever, if you do not kill the final boss with the weakest weapon on Extreme/Hardcore/Hell/WTF/Impossible, you are a pussy and a ***** at the same time. No exceptions.
Thanks.
