Unrealistic Video Games

[Phil]

Ever played a video game that was just so unrealistic and had so many flaws it was just dumb? I recently bought Star ocean til the end of time and noticed a major flaw in the game. Theres a thing called a UP3 (underdeveloped planet protection policy thing), where new technology cannot be brought to underdeveloped planets with no knowledge of the outside space. Yet, in the game all the planets use the same currency- whats up with that? If they have planets that dont even know about space, how can the use the same currency?!?! I'd really like to know. Anybody else come across game flaws like taht?

chaos: Well, I thought Grandia II was pretty unrealistic...

Rubedo: You might want to PM a mod asking to delete the other two threads...

people are gonna hate me for this,but i think ffv was kinda unrealistic. i kno its Final Fantasy, but i think it went overboard on the fantasy. i may be unaware as to what the game is past the first 6 hours, so plz don't flame

It isn't as though I hate Chrono Trigger, I just found it interesting that weapons are stronger in the past than in the present or future. All in all, I love that game.

It's the same in Star Ocean: The 2nd Story. I didn't notice it until now though.

i agree Final Fantasy V was unrealistic. i also think X was too. final fantasy X had many flaws, when i come to think of it...

Starlight angel, i noticed that too, but, who knows, maybe in the past they had technology that we dont know they had...
and CT is a great game, one of the best there is.

yes lets has more realistic games, i can't wait for Shoping 2 :revenge of the trolleys to come out.

I think that the Metal Gear games combine stuff that's realistic and unrealistic. You can stand about 7 feet away from a sentry and he won't even notice you're their until you get within five feet of his field of vision.

Burnout 3 is unrealistic, but if it wasn't then it wouldn't have the same arcade feel. It wouldn't be so awesome, either.

i thought ffx was a gr8.definetly one of the better ones, imho. it seems like there's half the ff fanbase that hates a certain ff while the other half completely disagree's. so i've learned 2 rely only on my opinion. on the other hand....

thats not the point. i love sonic, but the newer games.....geesh.

Sonic = power of friendship
The old ones are great, the new one (heroes) doesnt deserve the title "sega"

[Lon611]

agreed.

Metal Gear Solid, again. Here's a breif scenario to explain why I feel it's unrealistic.

Snake: *Holds onto a hand grenade and removes the pin*

Grenade: *Explodes while Snake's holding it*

Snake: "Ugh!"

Snake: *Eats some military field rations*

Snake: *No longer has any wounds caused by a fragmentation grenade going off in his hand, two feet from his face*

LMAO. yah, good point. im not into many video games outside of RPG's and sports games, but if you were making whatever type of game MSG is, wouldn't it be pretty stupid if it was like really life?take gta3. do you think you can get shot that many times before dying?i think not
