The Greatest Lies in Gaming History

StarCraft: Ghost
I was actually really hyped for that game.

Oh and Killer Instinct 3.

Tell me about it. Also, BC and Tru Fantasy Live. I literally bought my XBox for BC and Dead or Alive 3.

It’s never been officially discussed, sadly enough. So it’s not really a lie, just a fucking disappointment that Microsoft would buy Rare and not put a fucking gun to their heads to make a new KI after we see how well MK and SF have been doing. Although I’m curious how well a single console fighting game would sell…

don’t get me wrong, KI is probably one of my all time favourite games, and they can NOT do a sequel quick enough for me. Even Ed Boon wants to publish it, and he was involved with publishing the original KI.

And Sabrewulf’s theme is the greatest video game song in the history of the internet, and yes that includes FF6 and Chrono Trigger soundtracks

edit: although technically they HAVE been teasing KI3 in a lot of their games, for the past few years

edit #2: also I’ve heard KI on XBLA rumours for the last year or so, and I am holding out my hopes that they’ll be smart enough to go ahead with that

I remember some kid in like 5th grade telling us and my friends that you could actually catch a digimon in Pokemon Blue. Most of us were all like, yeah sure fatass. But a couple of kids actually wrote what he was saying down, even the description of what the digimon looked like. Pathetic!

Sammy vs. Capcom. It was announced back in 2003 for a Spring 2004 release and then the whole thing got “Destroyed!”. It was going to be for Atomswave, and just the thought of Street Fighter characters done in GG style would have been amazing.

I remember those days, getting the cop car that said Oink for extra lols. I swear most of the time traffic would v line right for you to while avoiding all the AI. You want some bullshit rubberband AI, go play College Slam. I liked the game and won all the time(Whored out UConn because of Ray Allen) but god damn did the CPU get fucking cheap. No matter what if the computer was down you could count on in the 4th Quarter guys with no 3pt shot would be draining them, you will miss dunks, and they will steal the ball 3 to 4 times in a row.

Fuck I remember that, SRK went nuts when we caught wind of it.

Sucks that it never happened, now we get SF x Tekken!

Hooray?

Dios X told me that GoW3 was going to be 1080p and run at 60fps.

>_<.

The “M” in M.Bison stood for:

-Micheal
-Master
-Mickey(I shit you not I had people back in grade school tell me this)
-Mister
-Mastermind

technically, it DOES stand for Micheal

I remember in Streets of Rage when you get to the end Mr.X tells you if you want to be his right hand man or something, and so basically if you say yes then he drops you down to LV6 I remember being mad as FUCK first time that happened to me. Turns out you gotta kill your partner first, then refuse him to get the bad ending.

I also heard that it stood for Masturbate.

…Okay, that’s just my lie. I was looking at those funbags when I thought it up, and that’s the truth.

-Starhammer-

I rented Mario’s Time Machine thinking it would be badass…i mean, its Mario right?..ugh

3SOE being arcade perfect.

Shenmue III… at least tell us how it ends. I mean come on, magical tablets in the MOST realistic game where you have to work in a game.

Street Fighter II myths:

  • guile gun or knife
  • dhalsim teleport victory
  • balrog likes dudes

Here’s one no one has mentioned.

FF7; bring Aeris back into your party after the first disc. I forget what the trick was, usually something to do with the old man you get her lvl 4 limit break from.

I still don’t understand how ANYBODY managed to get her lvl 4 limit break.

As much as a lot of people liked it, that’s what I hated about the Burnout series. The rubberband AI was so irritating. Some of the tracks you would have to do perfect or you simply wouldn’t win. You could smash cars into oncoming traffic only to see them hot on your heels again seconds later.

damn I forgot about the Akuma in RE2, I must’ve tried ALL the lies people said how to play as him -_-

Agreed, without the guide it’s nearly impossible to figure it out. There’s really only a small part of the game that you’re allowed to get it and that’s IF you managed to catch a random line that vaguely hints at it. On top of that, you’ll get to use the limit in what. . . one boss fight (not even a difficult one)?

“ZOMG 3s is the best fighting game ever” - everyone one srk.
