Shit "that kid" told you

>you can free the shark in Ocarina of Time and befriend it

fuck you Kevin

I never saw the shark as a kid. I didn't even know about it. Either that or I did see it and didn't think much of it. I don't remember.

every soldier in Half-Life had his own AI modeled after real soldier behaviour
i mean he was 2 years older than me but come on, i believed it

It's not Kevin's fault you're a dipshit.

>Collecting everything in Spyro 2 unlocks the very last level called Riptonia
That, and how there’s news of a Mario game coming out for the PlayStation 1

Stop showing everyone my fucking Deviantart you piece of shit

what did OP do?

The fun thing about video games as a dumb naive kid is all the bullshit you'd believe back then.

Now if you play a game like Pokemon and see a grassy field behind the boundary fence you just think "yeah the developers never intend anyone to break out of bounds that's just decoration" but as a kid who doesn't think about pragmatic level design you just go "OH SHIT THERE COULD BE NEW RARE POKEMON IN THERE OR EVEN A WHOLE NEW REGION HOLY FUCK"

The sense of secrets and wonder is amplified by how 8/16 bit graphics and shitty early 3D polygons left much to the imagination.

One of the reasons why Dark Souls is great is because of all those "that kid" tier secrets.

>my uncle works for a video game company

>oh you are there in that game? Well I'm on the last level on it.

>In final fantasy VIII, the final boss is a businessman who wears a turtle shell on his back

Oh and this was all from the same kid.

Dark Souls 2 has the mother of all "that kid" mechanics.
>if you lead one of the small pigs from Majula all the way through brightstone cove and down to the chapel after the spikes and lead him to the patch of mushrooms on the floor he'll eat them then give you a weapon you can't get anywhere else
But then in true Dark Souls 2 fashion they fuck that up by making the weapon you get complete shit (even though it was extremely strong in DS1)

He can hack the mmo to use the strongest enemy and go to the city to kill em all

I used to have this friend named Kevin I would fuck with a lot and I said
>fuck you Kevin
constantly to this guy. Good call, OP. Fuck Kevin.

if she is level 100 in ffvii before the end of disc 1, Aeris does not die.

>mfw I restarted the game because I was so sad.
>mfw I realized it was impossible to reach lvl 100 without dying of boredom

The level cap is 99

>if you get all 120 stars in Mario 64 you can get a fire flower.
This one was at least possible, but that made it all the more disappointing.

>when we grow up we become more mature and won't act like retards anymore

nice try, """mom"""

so maybe he was right and we just don't know

>You can save Aeris
>No dude, I've done it
>proceeds to give 300 step process on how to do it
i miss being a kid sometimes

There was a kid in my class that was the king of "that kid"s

Every fucking vidya related thing out of his mouth was complete bullshit.

I seriously don't understand why they liked doing it cause no one believed him.

He one time said he unlocked Bowser in Smash Bros 64 by leaving his game on for a week straight.

Maybe if you're not a virgin NEET, yeah, you do become more mature

>Dude there's totally a way to spawn super hard versions of enemies in other players world

Sure thing Kevin

>he never got the Triforce in OoT
>he never unlocked Bowser
>he never rode Yoshi into the level beneath Hazy Maze Cave
lmao did you even try to play video games as a kid?

technically true, highlights how easy it is to fluff up claims about ai

I think the best part about being a kid was being oblivious to how shit you actually are and honestly believing you could do/be anything.

Not video games, but I had a friend who once claimed there was a secret company called "Snapshots" that hid tiny cameras everywhere to spy on you. He said that they had meetings outside his house at "8 o' clock sharp". But when they said sharp, they really meant 20 minutes after for some reason. For a long time afterwards I always thought they were spying on me when I was using the bathroom.

My friend was very imaginative.

>You can go in Cranky Kong's cabin in Melee
Fuck you Nick, we all knew you were full of shit

>You can go in Cranky Kong's cabin in Melee
Fuck you Nick, we all knew you were full of shit

>you can enter the temple of light
Now i don't care that he lied, these rumours were fun

Your friend may have had early onset schizophrenia.

Is there an echo here?
Is there an echo here?

Yeah, it was nice not being bothered by my faults when I was a kid. Now they're pretty much all I focus on.

Nick BTFO

Plug a second controller into port 2 after getting every star, then run around the fountain 64 times to unlock Luigi.

>If you beat smash64 on very hard mode you unlock mean faces.
How many of you fell for it.

I was kinda that kid.

>Convinced my friend you could save Aeris
>Have to get highscore on the goldsaucer minigame, win the umbrella and have her equip it
>A special cutscene would play where she deflects sephiroths sword

It was you

That If you managed to get into the woods of mystery before a certain time on the 1st day, one entrance would teleport you to the butler's son and you could interact/save him. i tried it a dozen time.

I really wish it were true

underrated

>you can go to the moon and catch deoxys if you run around the rocket ship 50 times
>theres a boulder in the wilderness you can push for strength xp
>you can only catch 1 of the legendary birds, you have to kill the other 2 (made sense since regular pokeballs missed)

how has nobody fucking noticed that this is a shiftily photoshopped shark that wasn't in OoT

>You can unlock nitrous oxide on ctr

user...

> if you kill 20 tonberry in a row you'll get a new G.F.
> he was right

ty Kevin

I never played those games but one user mentioned never seeing it

In half life, that you can commune with scientists and guards with chat. Whats worse is that I actually typed "Can you please open the door", pressed enter and he actually did it, I cant remember now if it was sequenced or i pressed the use button at the same time. So anyway, i spent the next hour or so trying to talk to npcs

I remember someone told me you could throw dead hookers or grannies into your trunk in San Andreas.

>be 13
>have 10,000 pageviews on dA for flash animation
>wipe it out of fear
>be 25 now
>going nowhere in life

...

>In Paper Mario: TTYD, if you go into Hooktail's pair 100 times after you beat her, you can find BONETAIL!

>want to post about the famous truck bullshit in Pokemon Blue
>some faggot posts about fucking Deoxys
Fuck you little faggot you'll be an underageb& all your life

Wait, what ?

>her
Wait what? we Schreck now?

>that nee-san that broke my game boy by showing me how to summon missingno

If you have caught all three Regi, have Regice in your party, nicknamed, holding a Casteliacone, Snowball or other Ice related items, and go in the time after lunch until evening to Regice's room, you'll find Regigigas.

God i love elaborate lies

It's funny, I do this kind of thing to my wife all the time, except instead of telling her to do things in games I tell her things that are lore-like in RPGs and then someone else will correct her. for instance I just reactivated my WoW account and when I clicked blood elf shop keeper the elf said "Do not loiter" and my wife goes "That was rude" I then tell my wife the shopkeep said "duna la tore" it's and elf greeting, she hasn't really figured out the truth yet, and I just told her malsadas in Pokemon were based off of a real Hawaiian food that was disgusting and they stuffed things like rats in them during a famine

>lie

You're not a good person jerry

You're wrong, and your post proves it. You still have the mentality of a schoolyard bully.

>from majula
user..

Spreading misinformation is my favourite thing to do.
Here in Dublin, Ireland we have a big monument in the city centre called the Spire. It's just a big spike made to commemorate the millennium for some stupid reason.
One time I saw an American couple marvelling at it so I approached them and told them that The Spire was made by the Vikings when they settled Ireland. We marvel at it today because we have no idea how they built it so high with their technology.

"Pokemon are real, user. What are you gonna catch when you grow up?"

This was the start of my autism.

but my first game was Gold

DESU Dark Souls has too fucking many secrets. Some of the best parts of the game are completely hidden

not from Majula user, you can lead one of the pigs from up there in the settlement right at the beginning of Tseldora
you get a pickaxe for all the trouble

>if you catch all of the pokemon in gold/silver you can get celebi from that shrine in the center of the park

>see Corneria in the map while playing SF64
>it’s literally Earth
>which means Star Fox is real
>which means Krystal is real
muh diiiiick

>you can save this guy at the beginning of RE2 and he becomes a major part of the story for the rest of the game

Why are you a compulsive liar, Matt?

He was supposed to be alive in RE1.5, although his name was changed. It's actually happening now in the boardgame, at least.

>if you're quick you can take his shotgun once the zombies bust in

nice try, william

I don't think anything can beat the shit that's hidden in Bloodborne.
>there's a path that you can take in Forbidden Woods that takes you back to the very start of the game
>the doctor there is turning people into weird aliens
>if you grab a certain item from there and go back to Hemwick you can access a secret snowy castle level
>the boss of the level drops a crown and if you put it on you can access a doubly secret covenant behind his boss room
>you can also send Alfred to the secret covenant and he'll let you unlock a wheel as a weapon then go berserk and kill secret covenant lady, then kill himself
>but it's all good, because you can grab a piece of covenant lady's corpse and revive her by breaking a window behind the giant ayy boss in Upper Cathedral Ward, then beating the other secret boss through there

>if you wear these special glasses you get for finding these random items, you can save the final boss instead of killing him and the whole game continues for like twice as long as it was in an upside-down version of the main castle

fuck you Chase

>you can play as Toad in melee

>what level in Resident Evil are you on? Im on level 6!

I hated that guy.

I remember as a kid playing ruby version. I really thought that the daycare grass that you could never access had shitlike starters in it. I also remember some punk kid telling me that there was a glitch city and a torchic city where you can evolve one into a "cool blaziken" if it was holding blackglasses. Fuck you Tim.

>tfw I managed to get to the 12th room

how the fuck?

>theres secret islands in the sea areas where you can find one of three secret legendary pokemon!
>get stuck in the water currents area

thanks a lot, rob

I once tried to convince my family Lego Island was a real place because I saw it on a globe in an image in the credits.

user...

Dont forget that the sekrit boss also drops the sekrit ayy chalice.
And getting to upper cathedral ward is also pretty convoluted if you dont know where to jump down.

>tfw you was "that kid"

>Friend says you can get guns in Simpsons Hit and Run

Moon rune takes the fucking cake though

>drop though passage in the middle of elevator ride in Mensis
This one's understandable considering how many fucking elevator secret passages there are in Bloodborne
>pull lever that drops giant brain into abyss
wut
>go back to previous area and use the newly opened elevator to enter the abyss
>walk up to brain
With no fucking indication to let you know what to do other than curiosity and a will guide if you're a scrub
>use a gesture exactly in front of it's hand
>wait a minute for your hands to switch
>get a fucking rune

What the fuck were they thinking

Also
>Labyrinth Mole

If you catch all 150 Pokémon in yellow and go to vermillion city and surf at the corner of the SS Anne you can catch surfing pikachu.

>If you beat the elite four in G/S/C 100 times Lance will kiss you and thank you for coming to see him so often
>He will give you a shiny mew and take you into the hall of fame where you can fight professor oak

I miss the days back when there were websites devoted to game cheats and tips, and it was populated almost entirely by Kevins all there to share their bullshit stories.

I spread lies about there being a Zoo in GTA III. Everyone believed me at the time since I was the first in the group to have a PS2.

This one kid tried to convince all the other kids on my street that you could pull out the trade cord in Pokémon red and blue when you're trading Pokémon. He said a real charmnder came out of his gameboy. He said his mom didn't let him show anybody.

based Chase was telling you the truth user
Games just don't hide half their content behind a fake ending like that anymore.

If the Souls games had came out during the 90s, before the prevalence of the internet and datamining, there would've been so many secrets and shit that would be left undiscovered for years to come and so much misinformation. I bet there would've been groups of people just going out of their way to find cool shit.

why did you do it you bastard?
why were you that kid

???
???

>Aeris must reach lv.99
>You need to max relationship with her
>get back to Midgard before her death and re enter her church until very rare materia appear

and bullshit goes on .

Fritzee???

I had a friend tell me that in 2020 there is going to be a new game system with graphics so realistic you could see the spice girls naked and it will look like indistinguishable from real life. 3 years left my dudes.

I don't know, I didn't gain anything from it but I lied anyways. I guess it's one of those things kids do that are fucked up if you keep doing it once you're grown up.

>every single locked door, every single unreachable area
>every time i scoured after the credits for hours

Now is this some kind of endorsement deal where only the spice girls get good graphics or can I just blanket watch anyone nude

>Dude if you pull out the trade cord at the right time you can dupe a pokemon
>He dupes a lvl 100 Mew for me
