This made me laugh.

Heavy Rain - When you find out who the killer was and the fact that they commited a crime at the same time as when you were playing as them.

Kingdom Hearts makes MGS seem totally normal =P



Fallout 3: Why is it that despite potentially having a super mutant and a ghoul in your party, they refuse to go into a room full of radiation. Radiation heals them and all they need to do is enter a code to prevent a disaster. But nope, all they say is it's your destiny and refuse to do anything.

Yeah but kingdom hearts is a game about flying through space on a ship made of gummy bear parts to planets that are the manifestation of Disney movies.  The metal gear solid games are based in a world that's supposed to be at least somewhat realistic, then you get nonsense like Liquid's arm that was so ludicrous that all Kojima could do to try and explain it is deus ex machina.



Some plotholes from the original inFAMOUS:

  • How did Kessler get his powers in inFAMOUS in his timeline? In Cole's timeline (Kessler is Cole from the future but he traveled back in time) Kessler gave him his powers, so Cole really got his powers from his future self. So then how did Kessler get his? It can't be the same way, because in Kessler's timeline there seems to be no track of The Plague (an effect of the original Ray Sphere's detonation) and if it was the same way you'd create an infinite loop.
  • Also, who is The Beast is Kessler's timeline and how did he get his powers? In Cole's timeline, The Beast is John White and Cole activated John's powers by either blowing up or activating a Ray Sphere. So how did John White get his powers in Kessler's timeline? And is The Beast John White at all in Kessler's timeline? In Kessler's timeline The Beast is a Conduit which destroys all life and it's environment, but in Cole's timeline The Beast activated all Conduits at the costs of normal peoples' lives to save humanity from The Plague caused by the original Ray Sphere. This means that in Cole's timeline the Ray Sphere was activated by Kessler so Cole could battle The Beast. However without the original Ray Sphere there wouldn't have been a second Ray Sphere and there wouldn't have been a Plague, which then would cause there being no Beast, thus meaning everything would be fine and normal. This would leave me to believe that The Beast from Kessler's timeline wasn't the same person as in Cole's Timeline, otherwise you instantly create an infinite loop.
