You don't have to eat, really you don't. (90% of RPGs)

DakaSha:if you go into a kindergarden and give all the kids rubber schlongs they will prob just hit each other over the head with them
DakaSha:and you have a class of little kids hitting eachother with rubber dongs which must be quite funny (also Picklweasel knight I am)

... or use a toilet, for that matter. - All video games, except a forthcoming game by Rockstar, perhaps.

From Final Fantasy:
If you kill somebody, or something, you will recieve money.

From Silent Hill:
If you are badly hurt, you don't need surgery, you need beef jerky.
One can always get mocked for being polite.

There is a thriving underworld full of life, and it can take up to 4 years walking to reach the Ninth Underworld. Also the majority of characters down there have spanish accents. (Grim Fandango)

Somehow every year of a particular sports game, players manage to learn "new" moves that the previous years version somehow did not know. (EA Sports games)

Eating hallucigenic mushrooms is good for you and makes you stronger - Mario Series

Its possible to have a child with a reptile - Mario Sunshine

Homosexuals kick *money-maker* - Final Fantasy Series

The funniest/coolest/biggest character is the worst fighter - Alot of games... but again mostly from Final Fantasy Series

Women and men are exactly the same - almost all RPG's

Anything cute/cuddly will probably eat you/electrocute you or something else that sucks - alot but mostly Pokemon

Death is fine no matter how gruesome because you can save and load - Everything except roguelikes

USA existed 40 000 BC and can be counted as an antik culture - Civilization series

French Tanks rocked during WW2 - SPWAW

Skeletons have vocal cords - Alot... but im thinking of that stupid *money-maker* scream from Daggerfall

Mad Dead Kings want vengeance and cant shut the *meep* up about it - Daggerfall

It's a good idea to attack the strongest opponent with a single unit - All strategy games... thinking of Civilization

As long as you get into the building its no problem for a single person to steal a couple tons worth of merchandise + horses - Daggerfall

Being charismatic is pretty much useless - RPG's in general

Radiation will damage you once per second - FPS's in general

Even if your carrying 50 rockets around with you... your still only gonna get through that door if you have the red key - All FPS's except Red Faction

Other life forms look like humans in stupid costumes - All 4X in Space games

No point in using grenades because youll get shot before throwing the damn thing - FPS's in general

Its perfectly normal to:

1. Use your 5 foot tongue to eat a cute dangerous animal
2. To change said animal into an egg within a split second
3. To *crapola* out that egg within a split second
4. To use the egg as a throwing weapon to knock out another cute dangerous animal
- Yoshies Island

Jumping in the air with your right hand raised into the air in a fist and your legs as much apart as possible doesnt only help you jump higher but also makes the women love you - Older Mario Games

It's entirely possible to take every other day off work without getting fired, and in fact this is entirely necessary in order to be sufficiently happy to get promoted. Sims again.

If you are shot, cut, burned and beaten, just find a peaceful place and rest for 30 seconds, you will be as healthy as new (MGS: Snake eater).

Don't worry, there is always a single state-of-the-art fighter in the magazine
