People tend to attack you one person at a time rather than ganging up on you.

Pointing a gun at a person's genitals can force him to shake uncontrollably, dropping ammo in the process.

You can become mayor, then immediately cut power and water to your citizens while randomly destroying some of their homes and businesses with no fear of ever being voted out of office.

slashing at a barrel with a knife will cause it to explode.

Sleep is not needed.

Winning ever major trophy for your team for many years in a row as a manager, does not buy you time from the sack if you get off to a bad start, in one of the following seasons

If you're a young naive ideologue being trained by a wiley old veteran he will always always end up betraying you and attempting to take over the world.

Some of the things in this thread are cracking me up so hard.

Did anyone else pick up driving really easy because of sitting through tons of racing games in arcades and elsewhere? I pretty much got my license within a month of starting to drive because of all the experience I'd gained from games.

From playing video games I also now realize that every attractive female is a fat, single, 35 year old male in disguise.

If you are seen, leave the room and re-enter - people have short memories.

The higher your rank, the more damage you can take.

If you shoot a POW while on an important mission, you are a failure and cannot finish the mission.

It's impossible to get lost in a maze, just exit from the path that you entered a couple of times.

If you rob a bank, just wait a couple weeks before going into that town again and they won't remember you. Do this every couple weeks forever.

fat guys are slow but have great slapshots, good fighters also
skinny guys are fast, weak shooters who suck at fighting
