15 Video Game Logic Memes That Are Funny AF

There’s something eerie about literally walking into a store, looking down the sights of a gun and into the eyes of a store clerk, even if it is all virtual. It immediately creates a narrative between assailant and victim that wasn’t there when viewing the game through the window of a TV screen. He's no longer an Apu-esque caricature, and it’s my personal choice whether to kill him or not. The screams of nearby civilians immediately following the gunshots solidified the terror perpetrated by player actions in my mind. I was, and even thinking about it days after initially seeing it still am, deeply disturbed.


Players can import their prior hero (along with their accrued fame and renown) or start fresh as an outsider, viewed with suspicion. New characters, a new base of operations to upgrade, and a chance to re-spec without consequence means 'Awakening' may as well be a sequel to Origins . And considering the fan reaction to the actual sequel , that only sweetens the d


After watching the "head 'em off at the pass" Rainbow 6: Patriots concept gameplay video , I am walking away impressed. As a long time fan of the series (and the novel it was based on), I'm glad to see Ubisoft getting back to some simple basics, at least in terms of the st


The less said about the DLC's story the better, but the exploration of personal obsession, the early days of computing, and Alan Turing's efforts in particular are the exact kind of storytelling that made BioShock such a triumph for those longing for more thoughtful shooters. Buying a copy of BioShock 2 just for Minerva's Den is far a bad decision - a true mark of great


For the uninitiated, it is a surprise assassination that sends the game's events into motion, forcing the player to prove their innocence and seek out the real killer. In 'The Knife of Dunwall,' players are given the chance to play as that assassin while learning the events surrounding his own struggles and betrayal. The DLC essentially turned Dishonored into the first part of a supernatural trilogy, concluded with the 'Brigmore Witches' DLC . Not to mention fine-tuning the acclaimed gameplay mechanics at the same t


Think back to your first moments with Niko Bellic and his cousin Roman -- sure they were annoying at first, but by game’s end you cared about them more deeply then you ever thought possible. Now wouldn’t you want to experience that ag

The arguments are there that VR is a powerful piece of narrative device. The people you play as in the Grand Theft Auto series are largely awful people, and seeing the world through their eyes is a breakneck way to deliver that message to players. I could even see it causing emotional scenes, like pulling the trigger on Duck in Telltale’s The Walking Dead Season 1, that much more powerful, but in the case of Grand Theft Auto V, its meaning may take a backseat to just how terrifying the act of killing is.


Batman has one code: do not kill. Sometimes properties go against these known rules like 2016’s awful Batman Trevor Philips Gta V Superman: Dawn of Justice where Batman literally shoots people with a gun. Not a gun that propels sleeping gas, but an actual gun with bullets. Batman shooting a gun is the least of that film’s problems though. Anyway, Batman also kills dudes in the Arkham games, even if it isn't as obvious. The damage he does to some henchmen is violent that they’re either dead or so close to it they want to be. Plus, Batman Arkham Knight introduces the Batmobile, which is a whole other can of worms. Like my Final Fantasy VII theory regarding death, I have one for Batman as well that solves this dilemma. I think the player sees reality where the in-game Batman thinks he’s holding back to keep his mind sane. Take a look at this CollegeHumor video , which sums up my point quite accurat


The concept of healing yourself in video games is hilariously inaccurate. Shooting yourself up with needles, munching on painkillers, or eating food alone cannot cure bullet wounds. Bioshock Infinite calls back to the very early days of regenerating health, where characters could eat pizza or cheeseburgers in the street, dropped from bloody enemies, in order to feel better. It wasn’t possible in the 8-Bit and 16-Bit generation and it sure isn’t possible in the realm of Bioshock Infinite, even with flying cities. So yeah, Booker go ahead and eat that hot dog from the trash. If you die from food poisoning, I’m sure a smarter version of you will appear in an alternate timeline. I’ll share another video , this time from Mega64, to accompany my po


Starring Luigi as the undisputed lead - the only Super Mario Bros. platformer to flat-out exclude Mario from the action - players were able to wield Luigi's higher jumps, floaty physics and decreased traction. But it was far more than a gimmick; offering a difficulty some found missing from recent games in the series. Luigi brought pulse-pounding precision along with him, and did it in DLC that could easily be considered a standalone g
