one thing i learned was from "gears of war" it was take cover or die, which ended up being the best piece of advice to hear before going my first time paint balling

In real life: the English language. For that I'm forever grateful.

In a more comic, OP-related way:
It's OK to reload your weapon after 3 shots. Every magazine is full of ammo. All of them. Even if you discard all your magazines.

I was taught from Mercenaries 2 that Angel Falls is in Venezuala.
Total War helped me in history, as did Assassin's Creed.
Oblivion taught me some archery.
Also, some simple game moves are useful in gym.
Assasin's Creed? History? You serious?
Actually, Assassin's Creed is based on historical figures. It was surprisingly accurate in depicting Alamut (Masyaf in-game) and The Old Man of the Mountain (the leader of the assassins). Even the Assassins' clothing was spot-on except for the hood. The historical Hashshashin wore a turbant, either white or red.
Agreed. If you ignore the plot, It's a very historical game.
I double that agreement... I Also was helped in history because of Assassins Creed... Also Civilization Rezolution... But that game is different... Assasssins creed helped the most...

Oh and I almost forgot to add that Condemned Criminal Origins taught me that usually whatever's handy can be used to defend yourself.

that you can remake the same thing every year and people will still buy it.
true but you have to call it something completely believable like 2.0 if you want it to go that far, maybe just repeat the title, This Games Awesome: The Awesome Game. Dont you want to buy it?

CoD taught me bodies on the floor are NEVER dead, well actually I taught my friends that :)
and also shotgun shells to the face are barely more than a scratch...to the foot.

Any thing in life can carry money, items, or ammo, especially dogs.

Never give an idiot a flashbang.

Shoot first ask later. Always.

The US won WW2 because of wolverine.

If you think something is put there for a reason, maybe being the only shining thing in the room or completely out of the ordinary, apparently it is just ordinarily in that kind of environment.

Betraying your team is a lot more fun.

If life's too hard, just switch to easy.

Thank you every single Rainbow six game... Even though you just looked in an empty room with 1 entrance (where youre standing), it is possible for someone to attack you from that room still. Terrorists also can break physical limitations and know exactly where you are even though they are 3 buildings away. And apparently the Shotgun is the BEST sniper rifle. Also if your a counter terrorst operative, just use a helicopter because terrorists never think to cover the roof.

Fable taught me the only indestructible thing in life are children. No matter how much you shoot them and how much you want them to die, they just dont.

Radiation is good. always.

Having rainbow colored armor is better than actual camouflage.

If you see a lot of people dieing in a hallway, it is best to go see whats killing them for yourself and follow them into the hallway.

Bathroom stalls give you the worst flashbacks (Fear 2)

If your country is under attack dont worry, there will always be some Super Weapon Mech Robot around for you to use.

Fulfilling your life turns you into a mermaid (Dead or Alive 4)

its better to look cool and suck than to be good at anything and not look good. and the best way to win a fight is knock someone off the platform you just happen to be floating on. (soul calibur 4)

Theres nothing like freezing time to take out your foes.

Just put something like a rock or bucket in between you and your foe and they can never hit you. works like a charm :)

Large mazes in the middle of no where confuse attackers and make them want to find the center until they realize nothings there and move on to the next maze. (Warcraft 3 + tower defenses)

and your best friend is always the dumbest person in the world.

Better English.

And the fact that I can survive 30-feet drops as long as I wear a bulletproof-vest.

Well some people are more offended by the idea that a hitherto unknown Star Wars character could defeat both the Emperor and Darth Vader than they are about a fictional character defeating God.

There is a limit to how many weapons and how much ammo you can carry, but it is much higher than you would think. You can easily carry 10 or more guns including a rocket launcher, crossbow, shotgun and two pistols and not be encumbered at all. Alternatively, you can carry exactly two guns at once.

There is always a chosen one, destined to save us all, and it is usually me.

A bullet to the head doesn't always kill instantly. Some people require being shot in the head multiple times before they die.

It takes a degree from MIT to be able to push a little cart forward 10 feet (Half Life)

1. You CAN tie two chainsaw onto a motorcycle, and run through an army of zombies. (Dead rising 2)
