So if you could pick one fictional element from a game and bring it into the real world, what would it be?
My personal choices would be FF-style magic or anime/Street Fighter-style martial arts moves (shooting blasts of energy from your bare hands, pummeling an enemy at impossible speeds, etc.) Or possibly FF boat-copter-style airships, but you could just build one. Except you'd have to have two rotors on either side of the hull; if you just did one, the downwash would mostly hit the deck, with the most likely result being that the rotor would just rip right off.

I would like to jump on a turtle and kick the shell at other turtles.

[commodorejohn]

Heck, you can do that in real life.

[Bramble]

Nah, if you had something fictional in reality, it'd be reality. Nothing new. I've come to where when I think about it, I don't want anything fictional anymore. Maybe someday it'll change, but for right now I want everything just how it is. Nothing new.

bramblekid may be onto something there

regardless, i'm going to put myself down for 'spaceships and intergalactic wormholes'

[duvel]

I vote for the ability to just go out, buy a weapon, and go on some cliche adventure in the blink of an eye.

Not if you don't get caught.

Let's go with...with...actually, in a lot of ways, I'm glad that real life is not like video games.

Okay, here's mine. It'd be pretty cool if guns were non-lethal weapons, as in say, Final Fantasy games. The great equalizer no more; everything would be down to your skill as a gunman, and I'd bet there'd be a lot less murder, too.

cop does 19 damage to criminal
criminal does 14 damage
cop goes down
=P

anyway, i'd go with physics that allow me to jump six times my height and run up walls and whatnot (i.e. smw)

[weasel]

Unlimited stamina, and the fact that nobody cares if you run everywhere. Plus in games like Castlevania 2 where you can just walk right through people, so I can dash everywhere and not worry about hitting anybody.

[Aplsos]

healing potions

[Nash]

hmm I wish I could brutally run down innocent people and cause mass murder gun raging massacres resulting in very little permanent punishment like in GTA: SA. I'd start out by running down all the little 14 year old straight edge scene kids that line up before all the local shows.

[Xeirxes]

Let's see. I think it would rock if anyone could learn some form of magic... the only problem is that it would be very abused. Well, this is a REALLY hard question... but yeah, magic would rock. OH! Also... save points. Yep, I would love to have save points in real life.

[Pyro1588]

actually, savestates in general would be great. that would save me so much darned trouble.

[Zenith Nadir]

pyro your life would turn into "the butterfly effect" and that would be too much hassle

Guns could be like the pistols in Tomb Raider, where you can spend a fortune on perfectly good .45 calibre bullets and still need to put like 40 of them into something before it would feel any pain. =P

detials, details. And by the way check out my art. woo.

..healing potions might be nice. No magic though, we'd all be like harry potter and mzx would be some kind of GCS where there'd be actual little creatures we programed to do stuff.

"Move Dragon east"
"shoot magic force west"

tee hee

Oh I'd like to have my father deposit money into my bank account every so often so I could buy a baseball bat and hit kids on pogo sticks with it.

This thread sucks and is now about posting margarita artwork:

[Stephi-chan]

This thread makes me thirst for a good margarita. Soooo tasty are they.
