THE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES MEME



Video games. We love 'em. You love 'em. Let's play 'em. ...That's all there is to it, yep.

1.) Post with your character.
2.) When you reply to someone, roll from the options below.
3.) Play the game. Feel free to pick a specific one if you want, or make up your own random-ass game.
4.) Try not to break the console.

OPTIONS:

1. Dating Sim (eg. Tokimeki Memorial, Katawa Shoujo): Basically obligatory in these sorts of memes. But remember, it's not just about picking whether to stick it in or not! It's also about making sure you don't slack off too much in your studies and workout, you lazy ass.

2. Japanese RPG (eg. Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Tales of): Saving the world one scripted overdramatic event after another. Grind those levels!

3. Western RPG (eg. Fallout, Baldur's Gate, Wizardry): Gotta go save the world! ...After I get the rats out of the cellar, and take this scroll to the next city over, and try to find three artifacts for the archaeologist at the camp...

4. Management Sim (eg. Evil Genius, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Simcity): I don't know what you're talking about. Having a roller coaster that launches people into orbit is perfectly legitimate park design.

5. Beat'em'up (eg. Final Fight, River City Ransom, God Hand): PUNCH 'EM ALL AND LET GOD SORT 'EM OUT. Try not too eat too many street chickens.

6. First Person Shooter (eg. Doom, Medal of Honor, Half-Life 2): No John you ARE the demons. And then John was a demon. Oooh, motion sickness...

7. Adventure Game (eg. The Walking Dead, Monkey Island, King's Quest): I'm pretty sure that porcelain cat is SOMEHOW important in getting the guard to let you into the club, but how?

8. Platformer (eg. Super Mario Bros, Rayman, I Wanna Be the Guy): Where do all those pits actually drop you, anyway?

9. Strategy (eg. Starcraft, Civilization, Total War): zerg rush kekekekekekeke

10. Survival Horror (eg. Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Dead Space): ...but isn't this what 75% of Dreamwidth RPs are ANYWAY?

11. Puzzle (eg. Puyo Puyo, Chu Chu Rocket, 2048): Bonus points if it's Tetris Grandmaster. You guys know Tetris, right? It'll be a cakewalk. ...Really.

12. Fighting Game (eg. Street Fighter, Tekken, King of Fighters): ARE YOU KEN? ARE YOU KEN? SURE YOU'RE KEN!

13. Shoot-em-up (eg. Gradius, Touhou, Tyrian): Suddenly, there were bullets! Eeeeeeeeeverywhere!

14. Metroidvania (eg. Metroid, Symphony of the Night, La Mulana): Leaving rooms tantalizingly out of reach until you get the right item for years.

15. Classic Arcade (eg. Frogger, Pac-Man, Lunar Lander): Where pretty much the only thing that matters is the points you get and how few quarters you use to get them.

16. Sports (eg. Tecmo Bowl, NBA Jam, Mario Kart): Because why get fresh air when you can sit on your butt and make touchdowns?

17. SPECIAL: Mario Party: Nothing maintains friendships like screwing over everybody you know and care about!

18. Wildcard/Other: Anything I forget to list? Here it goes.

[Chara is bored. They've been biking back and forth around the Battle Resort in Alpha Sapphire for ages, and having the Volcarona they transferred from their Black version on their party isn't making things any faster. They check the recent Larvitar they hatched: "Likes to thrash about." The Power Bracer is doing its job, at least. But the nature? "Serious." This won't do at all.]

Kenma Kozume | Haikyuu | OTA

[nekogamer]

[This is the meme for him. canon and cross canon welcome!]

8 (though this works with any game genre so-- go nuts?)

[wokeuplikethis]

[This isn't an unusual way to spend an evening after practice. Kuroo's used to this scene- Kenma locked in concentration over some video game, regardless of whether or not the other was present and trying to engage in conversation. Sometimes he'd play along, sometimes he'd sit back and watch- it's nice to see Kenma so passionate about a hobby. Tonight it's the latter, regarding the screen with a lazy smile.]

Haven't you beaten this one a few times over already?

Leon Powalski | Star Fox

[trapped_archer]

[Setsuna likes the Wii U gamepad. The lack of wires means she won't get accidentally tangled up like with the Wii nunchucks. Or Gamecube controllers. Or basically any controller that isn't wireless.

Anyway, she's sitting with Leon in the living room of the giant house that every fan imagines the Super Smash Bros. characters living in, playing co-op on Star Fox Zero. She's manning the motion controls because she's the only one who likes them.]

Hey keep the ship straight. I almost had that guy.

Sans | Undertale.

[skelederp]

Nyeh heh heh!

I am really shooting up the points here!!

[Is playing a video game with Sans where it was a first person shooter. Except there wasn't any blood, this game had magic and sparkles with bottle corks from the "guns". Papyrus gave out a cry.]

Sanssss! Look! If you shoot the hippos they make a funny noise!

[The Hippos seemed to honk, and Papyrus was having a little too much fun shooting one repeatedly.]

Toriel | Undertale

[mymostvulnerable]

[How do game?]

aerith gainsborough | kingdom hearts | ota

[gentlelight]

(She'll try her very best to defeat you or help you conquer as many levels as she can. Or just help you decide who to swoon or suggest ideas to improve management while trying a way to sneak a bad choice in. Oops.

I'm open to cross canon and other ideas too.)

Bandou Saburouta | K

[chickshades]

Yung Venuz | Nuclear Throne

[gungod]

[Hope you don't mind him shooting the TV if he loses.]

[likekevincostner]

[YV, we've been over this. You're only supposed to shoot all the things in the game, not in real life.

...Okay so maybe their real life consists mostly of shooting all the things too. Still, the poor TV doesn't deserve it. At least YV's got plenty of replacements.

Especially because guess who's way too good at FPSes despite never having picked one up before he started finding himself hanging out at the mansion a lot? This asshole.]

Heh, didn't even need the scope that time.

Terezi Pyrope | Homestuck

[draconiclaw]

Matt | Death Note

[smartgamer]

Harry Osborn › Spider-Man

[goblinjr]

( He's pretty much going to turn everything into a competition. Anticipate cheating if he's losing. )

[justletmewin]

[It's 2-P with Fix-It-Felix Jr! Which means Harry has to wait his turn after he loses a life. Asriel's been at it for a while, making it to Level 3 before Felix finally gets hit by a brick.]

Noooooooo! I got out of the way in time!

Undyne | Undertale

[showsomespearit]

[Will play anything where you get to kick lots of ass. Just beware of property damage if she loses]

17

[skelederp]

[Papyrus was playing the Super Smash Brothers game with Undyne picking Captain Falcon. He gave out a cry as he made his character get the special as he cried out with him as he sent his attack on Undyne's character.]

FALCOOOOONNN PUNNNNNNNNCH!

NYEH HEH HEH HEH~! I GOT YOU UNDYNE!!

Cadence | Crypt of the Necrodancer

[tothebeatofherheart]

[Shhhh we'll pretend it makes sense. Has a strong penchant for rhythm games, imagine.]

Jade | Beyond Good and Evil

[shauni]

[She's better at arcade sport games like air hockey but she'll give anything a shot.]

90s Kid | Atop the Fourth Wall

[liefeldisgod]

[DUUUUUUUUUUUDE everybody knows he's gonna play on the best console ever made...THE SEGA GENESIS!]

[yagotchange]

[Bursts into 90s Kid's door with a loud happy cry and game in hand.]

90S KID HOLY FUCK!!

[He slid next to him with a big grin.]

You'll never believe this!! Mistah Nostalgia-mah Critic shoved this Dating Sim game at me and told me to go play.

We get to choose a hot girl on one these and get to date them!! Doesn't that sound super neat-o?!

Chara | Undertale | OTA

[demonthatcomes]

[No IRL stabbings, just frustration. Beware of a pretentious, elitist player.]

17

[bonedoggle]

[Chara might get the distinct feeling that Sans is playing as Mario because that's where the cursor defaulted too.]

Asriel Dreemurr | Undertale | OTA

[justletmewin]

[Pouty sore loser. Spends way too much time at the customization screen.]

Mangle | Five Nights at Freddy's | OTA

[pick_up_the_pieces]

[She can be human or animatronic. Pick your poison!]
