Funny ways to play video games

[Deleted]

There are serious, self-imposed challenges by gamers, such as the nuzlocke.

And then there are these.

Here's a few examples I do.

*Low Intelligence Fallout: In the Fallout games, with the obvious exception of Fallout 3, you can play as a complete moron. The downside with the first two is most missions are closed off, but Fallout 2 is just so damn funny as a blithering idiot.
*Spider-Man 2 Suicide: Empire State Building. You can jump off of it. Any questions?
*Glitch hunting in WWE games: Just the other day, I got to walk around the arena during a Royal Rumble match in WWE '13.

One me and my cousin started back in the day but never got around to do it is Gunstar Heroes with just the blue lazer. No combos of anything, just that blue lazer and the vitality orbs were the only orbs you could get.

playing a driving game using a dance mat as the control.

the game isn't challenging enough already?

Resident Evil - Knife and maybe Handgun only.

Well, we were able to beat it with every other weapon (the flamethrower was quite a challenge also) but this one so... (oh, and for about 4 years we would play that game multiple times a day during our summer vacation, so we knew it inside out)

Based on an old Jim Norton joke, I like to play GTA Online as an employee of the Los Santos Hat Company. It is my job to reclaim hats from people who haven't made their regular hat payments.

Basically I just spend a solid hour or so hitting pedestrians wearing hats with a golf club to remove said hats. Bonus points if I can de-hat an actual player.

I think one everyone has done is playing GTA and trying not to break ANY laws. Obeying the traffic and junk.

It's really hard to not just go on a murderous rampage.

Fallout 3: No kills challenge.

By the end of the game you should have exactly 1 kill that radroach in the very beginning that you kill with the BB gun as that is the only kill needed to progress the story.

Perma-death runs on various games are always fun. I remember my favourite being in Skyrim, after getting quite far into the main quest, ( I was attacked by some mercenaries at Valthiem Towers after I'd been questing, so had no healing items.

I was using some realism mods, so I ended up quite greviously wounded after some mercenaries attacked alongside the usual bandits, standing on the bridge with nearly no health and bleeding out due to about 4 arrows in my chest, along with a few axe wounds.

So I decided to end it quicker, and threw myself from the bridge. Watched as my character's corpse floated down river, looked like Isildur's death in LoTR.

I remember thinking afterwards I should've documented my journey, maybe screenshotted it and posted it in forum games. Might do it if I have the time (And people show interest.)

GTA: Vice City.

Driving in circles with a tank for no reason whatsoever.

Lots of fun.

San Andreas: Jetpack to the highest building and jump. CJ's commentary on the way down is hilarious.

"I HATE GRAVITY!"

I tried this in GTA 4, with the added rule that I had to accept every invitation to hang out with friends.


I never got anything done.

San Andreas find the tallest building and spawn a car on the roof and drive off and jump out while its plummeting

My condolences.

The best part is that even if you DO obey the traffic laws, people will STILL honk at you any chance they get.

This does not help the blood lust at all.

NHL Hockey (though any sports game can count here): Give your team maxed out stats, make the other team have all lowered stats, put all sliders in your favor, remove the rules, and put the period time to its highest level. See how much goals you can score.
