What Game Would You Put Yourself In?
Lately Ive been finding myself thinking about video games and what it would be like to be in them! I know..this is like every little kids dream to do but me being the age I am still want to be in video games!!!

So I ask those of you out there willing to say...if you were put into a video game what game would you want to be placed in?


Me personally i have to go RPG because the adventure and colorful characters i would meet really peaks my interest!! The game I choose to be placed in would be Final Fantasy X! It is probrably my 3rd favorite RPG!!! The scenes and characters are super awesome and the thought of going on the adventure that they went on would be cool as well!!!

Of course I would do things my way instead of following what the storyline said!!! For example the love part of the storyline would probably wait for me until the end of the adventure!!!

On to weapons and stuff. I am a Pike or halberd kinda guy so I think so kind of weapon like that would be mine!!! My pike would would be one handed of course and I would use shields as my defensive item! My final weapon would be called the Dragon Star!!! Ive actually drawn it on paper and I hope to upload it on the OBs soon.

Just the thought though of going through life like that instead of how we go through it now, not that life is bad because my life is pretty good!!!
(Totally off topic there) LOL!!!

If I had the option of going into a Video Game, I would enter some sort of racing game , where I get to drive fast, expensive cars and wreck them with almost no consequence, as a sufficient amount of credits would appease any disgruntled mechanic. Although I'm sure it's the same in real life...right? Gran Turismo has to be how it's done.

If any other game, I'd probably be in Animal Crossing, just because it's a less severe form of real life, where there is less of a penalty for lethargic activity besides a stern talking to by the local town motormouth.

Hmm....I guess if I were to put myself in a videogame I'd have to go the RPG route too. I'd probably go with Lost Odyssey, the aspect of the storyline is something I could live with. Living a countless number of lives, going from place to place. I think it would be neat to have that ability to become whoever you want. Sure it would be sad to see people you interact with die, but I would have to say after the first couple lives you would be desensitized to it.

A world I would like to be in would have to be a silly platformer type. A game more specifically would be Psychonauts. A world with a little bit of Alice in Wonderland and some similar feelings as Walking Life and a Scanner Darkly. The art style is like a cartoon, yet something out of a child’s nightmare. I like Psychonauts envisioning of many psychic powers, like conjuring up psychic hands to lifts objects or a psychic ball to “levitate” on.

Yeah, platformers can be often be linear and short, but being in a world where you can physically dive into someone’s mind to see how they see the world while it’s presented in a way suited to the person’s character I found would be intriguing to me. Intruding? Yes. Fun? Defiantly.

Hmm... I'm about to give a really shallow reply, so brace yourselves... POKEMON RANGER. BECAUSE I LIKE THE UNIFORMS. Ah, yes, that is my answer. Other than that, maybe Pheonix Wright: Ace Attorney...because it's hilarious and fun!

Shenmue. The setting is peaceful, so to speak. The thought of being in a game where martial arts is the focal point (and no guns) would be really nice. Not to mention it's pretty realistic in terms of martial arts.

I suppose I could try to be in a RPG, but then again, majority of them nowdays are dealing with some type of holy war.

Shenmue would be nice - although it was so realistic that you could almost have that same experience if you just moved to Yokosuka! Heheh.

For me it's hard to decide. Possibly NiGHTS, or Super Mario Galaxy or even Final Fantasy VIII (when I see the FMV inside Balamb Garden, it looks so pristine and pleasant... I imagine it'd be fun to study in a giant flying school!)

I guess I'd like to be in any game environment that is light and pleasant and fun. I wouldn't want to be anywhere too dark or serious.

My game nightmare would definitely be Silent Hill. I can't even imagine being somewhere like that in person.

Haha, it wouldn't be the same because it don't look as pretty as the game

Yeah I suppose, although the main street in the game isn't terribly pretty. I mean the graphics quality is nice, but you still have all the clutter everywhere and stuff...

I think the real thing would be nicer. Except, of course, that you wouldn't have the whole plot going on where you've got to fight Lan Di and stuff.

Speaking of which, I never played Shenmue 2... but I guess that's a story for another thread.

I'm getting iffy now. Thanks James XD. Fights are settled through martial arts though, right?

I take it you've been there or just well informed?

Edit: Oh yeah, I'd probably be too chicken to fight Lan Di lol.

And Shenmue 2 takes place in Hong Kong. Aberdeen, Wan Chai, Kowloon (I know that's real.) and Guilin.

Phantasy Star Online, provided I don't die when Sega pulls the plug on SegaNet.

Other than that, I'd love to be in either .hack series.

Hmmm..
There are plenty of games I'd love to be in but I think some of the more recent ones would be;

Being one of the mercenaries hunting the Jackal in Far Cry 2 would be pretty neat. Africa makes for good killing.

Killzone has a great art style, and I'd love to wear one of those awesome suits that the Helghast wear.

It'd be fun to be a Sackboy from Little Big Planet. I mean, just think of all the neat places you'd get to go AND you'd get to dress up like Solid Snake. Neat.

I would love to be in Kingdom Hearts! I love Disney and Square Enix to tears. They're so awesome and I think it'd be so awesome to live in a world where you could travel to places fabricated by Disney and Square Enix. Sure, it'd be scary as heck but I think it beats being on Earth.

Especially when you know that when you die, you become a monster because your heart gets ripped out of your chest cavity.... :x

Adding another game to my list. Mario Kart. Here me out on this. This would be every person's dream. You ride around in a go cart and fire miscellaneous objects at other drivers, thus sabotaging them. You can fall into all sorts of hazardous things (bottomless abysses, acid, lava, freezing water) and be saved by a Lakitu. If you're falling behind in the race, you get all the best items so you can race your way to the top. So no race is unwinnable. Sounds like a rip snortin' good time to me.

If I was in a video game, I would want to be in either in an action/ adventure game or in a RPG route. For action/adventure I would want to be in the Devil May Cry series because teaming up with Vergil first is how I would start. Soon after I was defeated by Dante once, I'll join him from there on out and then we would kick some serious demon ***. My weapon would be a Gun Blade because those thing are awesome.
In the RPG route I would want to be in the Disgaea series because with me around, demon are going to coward when they don't realize that I have alot more power then they do. I would like to be around Laharl, Etna, and Fallen Angel Flonne because they alway make thing interesting and fun where ever they are.
