History NeverLiveItDown / VideoGames

* [[SilentHill2 James Sunderland]] has done many impressive things, like fight [[ImplacableMan Pyramid Head]] [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome and win]], but the one thing he is most remembered for is [[IdiotBall jumping into a large, dark abyss with no prompting]] towards the end of the game. From then on, any time a SilentHill protagonist encounters a hole, players ask "What would James do?"

* If there's one thing [[FinalFantasyX Tidus]] will always be remembered by, it will be his infamous "fake laugh" scene.

** [[MassEffect2 "In theory, any biotic could do it."]]

* Ever since ''[=~Dissidia: Final Fantasy~=]'' portrayed [[FinalFantasyVIII Squall]] looking after [[FinalFantasyV Bartz]] and [[FinalFantasyIX Zidane]] while they got in troubles, he has gained a reputation as the TeamMom, which ended up making around half or more of his characterization in FanArt, [[CharacterExaggeration exaggerating that trait]] either JustForFun or because they find it SickeninglySweet.
** Squall has shown shades of this in other incarnations, in particular his defense of Zell and later the entire Garden in ''FinalFantasyVIII'', and his Leon characterization in the ''KingdomHearts'' series. It wasn't until ''Dissidia'' that the idea really got popular, so this may also be a case of OlderThanTheyThink.

* No matter how [[YourMileageMayVary justified or not you think their reaction was]], a sizable majority of the MassEffect fan base will ''never'' let Ashley or Kaidan live down what happened on Horizon in the sequel.

*** Kain gets {{Brainwashed}} ''once'', with a period between the Tower of Zot and Sealed Cave where Golbez loses the signal and has to retune it. Somehow that apparently translates into HeelFaceRevolvingDoor even though he only leaves and rejoins ''twice''. (To put it in perspective, ''Cid'' joins and leaves more often.)

** YMMV applies greatly here. Kingdom Hearts is not known for zippers. It's more like only Kairi and Donald that follow this trope, since they was really the only ones who had outfits that had zippers that were not in conventional areas.
** I direct you to the trope picture of TooManyBelts. That is not Kingdom Hearts, but still Tetsuya Nomura's art. In general, he just likes zippers and belts. It's a sort of RuleOfCool thing.

* ''SilentHill'' 2's Pyramid Head is shown to be raping a fellow monster once, forcing another into an oral sex position (he may have just been breaking him in half, [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic or it may have just been symbolic]]) and otherwise just stalks James (albeit in a fairly [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything aggressive]] manner); {{Fanon}} [[MemeticMolester characterizes him as a rapist-murderer]] on par with [[{{Firefly}} the Reavers]].

* Apparently, "[[GratuitousEnglish I're stain mah hends with your bra!" and "You cannot escape flom dess!"]] are the only things [[FatalFury Geese Howard]] ever says according to "fans". Those phrases originated from ''[[SNKVersusCapcom Capcom vs SNK]]''.

** On a similar note, it appears that for ANYTHING in regards to SNK characters, the only artwork they will ever use of them is from [=CvS2=], invariably. People have got to remember that there's a reason its called ''{{Capcom}}'' vs SNK.
*** SNK itself. Disregard taunts, parries, super moves, super meter, background cameos and just about everything ''StreetFighterII'' didn't invent; SNK made ''[[FollowTheLeader Art]] [[AlternateCompanyEquivalent of]] [[OldShame Fighting]]'', [[SarcasmMode therefore they are FOREVER incapable of coming up with ANYTHING]] '''''[[BlatantLies EVER.]]'''''

* Cirno from the ''{{Touhou}}'' series is indeed TheDitz, but ever since she was labeled "(9) Baka" in the 9th game's instruction manual, her stupidity has become her defining trait in fandom.

* Poor, poor [[FinalFantasyII Firion]]. He was an orphaned kid who became one of the key fighters for the rebels, helped otherthrow an Emperor, killed him when he came back to life after taking over the underworld, and in ''Dissidia'' is a hot-blooded, badass rebel who exhibits mastery of ''Final Fantasy II's'' ''entire'' battle system. [[{{ButYouScrewOneGoat}} But he gets seduced by one Lamia]], and no one--not even the staff who threw in two Mythology Gags in ''Dissidia'' for it--will let him forget it.

* ''{{Drakengard}}'' will likely be remembered as the game where [[spoiler:giant winged babies come out of a hole in the sky and eat everyone.]]

* Like it or not, ''GuiltyGear'' is NEVER gonna live down Bridget.

* Speaking of Nintendo, their official magazine in Spain, ''NintendoAccion'' will ''always'' be considered to be extremely biased towards {{Pokemon}}. Yes, during the height of the Pokémon craze they had Pokécovers nearly every month, but that's more WolverinePublicity than actual bias. Same for having an extra mini-magazine focused on Pokémon. Nowadays they don't cover them much more they cover Mario or Zelda games. In fact, if anything they have a ''LegendOfZelda'' bias, with all Zelda games getting huge scores without exception (and ''TheWindWaker'' getting the only perfect score so far), talking about the sagas as if it was super-popular everywhere (even on Japan, where, while not unpopular, [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff is not THAT big compared to its Western fandom]]) and claim Link is the best character on all three ''SuperSmashBros'' games (in the first and third, he's currently at the lowest tier of the TierList. On ''Melee'' he's mid-tier), yet nobody accuses them of favoring the Zelda series.

* Nintendo will ALWAYS be considered the gaming patron saint of {{Bowdlerization}}. Nevermind they have gotten past the NeverSayDie point long ago, and how in fact they're the more LENIENT company nowadays, with games released on multiple systems having less censorship on Nintendo systems (Or at least the same, but not MORE). Sure, they still censor some stuff every now and then, but no more than the others. Ironically, the most censor-happy company right now is ''Sony''. The same Sony who [[InformedAbility supposedly]] is DarkerAndEdgier than Nintendo.

** Even still, with Sony having titles like GodOfWar it's pretty understandable how they got this image of being DarkerAndEdgier even with many kid friendly titles like LittleBigPlanet.
** EVERY new Nintendo game is a Mario, according to [[{{Hatedom}} mature, genuine video game fans tired of kiddy games]].
