Extra lives, continues, and restoring saved games are just abandoning that Alternate Universe.
Ala Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Every time a character dies, they really do. Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog, the Hero from Dragon Quest. They really die. The Bad Guy Wins. The hero's soul and memories are moved to another dimension and rewrite their counterparts there who did not die, where they try again; but if they die again, that's another universe that falls to evil. Thus, evil wins in every dimension except for the last one.
Alternatively, all video game characters are capable of regenerating at will.
The reason most video games are winnable is because the villains have to make them winnable.
The heroes and villains are both bound by something akin to the Touhou Spell Card system. The exact nature of the rules varies from place to place and time to time. Thereby explaining, for instance why in some games a single hit can "kill" Mario, but in others it takes several. Of course, whenever a character is killed permanently he or she has simply lost and is no longer allowed to participate in the current game .
Bungie is manipulating every company.
Think about it. They already told us that they are taking over the world, and they even posted their step by step guide (guess what, they are on step 6 of 7). The last part is launching all of their foes into the sun with a giant slingshot. That would cost a lot. So, a giant Xanatos Gambit was needed. Take over all of gaming, and then they will have the money. 343 Industries is secretly part of them, and they are doing well. Think about it, they have influenced gaming to change it forever, they have an entire console series dependent on them, and Sony and Nintendo have been trying to rip them off for years. Half-Life wasn't the first FPS with a large story, Marathon was. You may not know it, but without them RTSes would be VERY different. The first 3D RTS was made by them. This is all part of Bungie's plan to take over the world.
ALL video game characters carry a TARDIS without knowing.
How else could you carry 10 guns, 2 suits of armor, and 5 plot devices?
Every important event in the video game industry since the North American Video Game Crash was part of an elaborate plan by one company: Nintendo
Think about it. Who picked up the pieces of the Crash? Nintendo. Who pissed off Sony enough to get them to make the PlayStation line that ended the consoles of Sega? Nintendo. Who inspired iD Software, the company to eventually popularize the First-Person Shooter which is the staple of Microsoft's Xbox, to make their first game, Commander Keen? Nintendo. Who is winning the console war now despite little competition on the console? Nintendo. They made money off of every console and handheld they made. Even when Nintendo loses, they still win, a mark of a TRUE Chessmaster
Nintendo and Microsoft are secretly allied
They plan to take down Sony by hoarding all the good games, splitting them between each other. The fact that the Xbox is releasing Katamari Damacy and Metal Gear Solid games only serve to confirm this.
The internal workings of Sega are sitcom material
The state of their franchises aside, pretty much every comment and interview that comes out of Sega suggests a Pointy-Haired Boss and Executive Meddling, along with all kinds of incompetence and distractions among the rest of the developers is prime recipe for disaster. The graphics team are the only ones that have not succumbed to the madness. (or at least are BunnyEarsLawyers)
Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 is the video game equivalent of the Necronomicon
People who play this game either get mad or go mad. The proof is in the Let's Plays of Sonic 06.
Limbo of the Lost also a video game equivalent of the Necronomicon
The plot are incomprehensible and maddening, yet made by a little english-speaking company.
Suda51 is The Chessmaster
There's no way this cannot make sense.
Square Enix will take over the Gaming World.
Think about it, Who have Square taken over? Enix, Taito and Eidos.
What will Square Enix take next? EA, BioWnre, SAGE (Sega need some Help anywho), Midway, Maybe even Nintendo.
I mean Square Enix is in all 3 Consoles!!
PSP Go is part of a Xanatos Gambit to gather PSP software support again and to go completely digital, but not in the way one might think
The PSP's problem has never been hardware sales. It's always been software sales. Piracy has hurt the PSP, but the PSP-3000 models are harder to hack than earlier ones and PSP Go will probably be as hackable as PSP-3000. The PSP Go's lack of a UMD drive forces every game made for it in the future to be offered in the PlayStation Store as well, and digital copies cannot be sold again used, which is what many video game developers want. France
Every mook in every video game is an inter-dimensional time traveler who's objective is to stop the hero from accomplishing their task
Why do you think that it's an automatic game over when you fail (even if you have a whole team with you)? It's because your death fucked up the future. It's written in stone that only Link will defeat Ganon, that Mario will rescue Peach, that Sonic will do whatever he needs to do at super speed. According to history the hero survived, but the mooks (which is the name of their species) seek to prevent that.
Team Ico Series is purposefully making each game have a Bitter Sweet Ending.
So they can eventually use a machine that will suck out our very will to live because of all the tears we've shed!
Segata Sanshiro was deliberately assassinated
The missile attack on Sega’s headquarters was intended to draw out Segata Sanshiro, who the perpetrators of the launch knew would sacrifice himself to save his beloved Sega. The only way to kill Segata Sanshiro was to force him to deflecting a missile barehanded, ride that missile out of the atmosphere, and explode in space - anything less wouldn't have stopped him. Who had the most to gain from slaying Sega Saturn's incredibly awesome mascot?
Sega couldn't make consoles without Segata Sanshiro
Segata Sanshiro's awesomeness is what fueled the company for years - it took Sega years to recover from his loss.
Segata Sanshiro isn't dead
He's Just Hiding. Sanshiro only caught a missile barehanded, rode that missile out of the atmosphere, and exploded in space...that’s completely survivable - right?
Windows live is an attempt to destroy PC gaming
Its a big ugly mess that can prevent you saving in single player and favours the x-box over pc.
Every videogame series occurs in the same universe, but the timelines differ
That's right, everyone. All of your videogame characters live together: Mario, Sonic, Kirby, Pac-man, Donkey Kong, even lesser known characters like Gex, Spyro, Blinx, Crash Bandicoot... it would be a shorter list if I just said "all of them."
Every faceless videogame character is the same guy/girl
From Master Chief to the Pyro. If you hear about what their faces look like, it's spread lies or a clever disguise to prevent anyone knowing their true identity.
