16 Of The Strangest Mechanics In Video Games

Video games can be great even if they don't have cutting edge graphics or the backing of a AAA publisher. The most important component to a great game is the game play itself, and some titles make some truly bizarre decisions on how to stand out from the pack. Some good, some not so good, and some just baffling.

Trespasser and its cleavage health gauge. CRACKED.co This Jurassic Park PC game isn't well remembered or liked, despite some really great voice overs from Richard Attenborough's John Hammond that help to fill out the story. The most bizarre choice in this survival game is the placement of your health bar: a heart tattoo on the chest of your female character, that you view by looking down at your cleavage. — Source: Engadget

Metal Gear Solid's villain messes with your Playstation. I see that you enjoy Konami games CRACKED.CO Psycho Mantis is constantly breaking the fourth wall, seemingly aware that he lives in a video game. This is never more clear than when you battle him in Metal Gear Solid 1 and he reads Snake's mind by going through the save files on your memory card. He also changes your TV to HIDEO mode, which might make first time players panic and try switching inputs. — Source: Destructoid

Boktai: The Sun Is In Your Hand, literally. KONAMI boktai E The San isin Your Hand AGB-U3IE-USA CRACKED.COM Fighting vampires on this Gameboy Advance title is hard, but it's a little easier in the daytime with the special light sensors equipped on the cartridge. By bringing your gameplay outside, you give yourself the edge in battling the warriors of the night, just as you would in real life. This kind of gameplay was made even more difficult before Nintendo incorporated the backlit screen into their handhelds. — Source: Konami

Typing Of The Dead teaches you to spell, or die trying. Too many enemies Jolly Roger Out *of reath CRACKED.co First launched on Japanese arcade machines and then later ported to the Dreamcast, this game takes the familiar House Of The Dead setting and adds an educational twist. Instead of pulling the trigger to blast zombies in the head, players must quickly spell words that flash on screen before the undead are able to catch them. — Source: Rock Paper Shotgun

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem will make you think you're losing it. VOLUME CRACKED.COM As your in-game sanity meter depletes in this horror action-adventure title, the game plays tricks with the scenery, causing hallucinations. The fun doesn't stop there, the game will actually mess with you in real life, by making your controller not work at critical moments, turning the video signal off, and making it look like your memory card was wiped. — Source: TV Tropes

No More Heroes wants you to erect a sword. CRACKED COM The Wii game, unusually horny for a Nintendo release, has more than a few suggestive portions. The most egregious is one you can't avoid, that charges Travis' beam katana by vigorously pumping the Wiimote, causing the limp weapon to become rigid. — Source: Destructoid

Seaman wants you to chat with an aquatic abomination. CRACKED.co The actual gameplay of Seaman is pretty light, you feed and care for this animal (inexplicably with a human face) and help it grow from basically a swimming eyeball to a full-fledged frog (again, with a human face). But just like a real creature, you need to check up on it every day, in real time, using the bundled microphone. oh, also, the creature talks back - with the voice of Leonard Nimoy. — Source: The Verge

Octodad really makes you feel like you have 8 arms. PINFAPA CRACKED.COM As an octopus in a suit, it's your job to not arouse suspicion while you clumsily shuffle around like a human man. Using all of the available control inputs at hand, this game makes you move each tentacled appendage individually, switching between which one you need, and using your suckers to grasp and release objects. — Source: Forbes

SCP Containment - Breach doesn't want you to look away. CRACKED.COM This horror game involves making your way through a compound overrun by paranormal monsters, each with unique characteristics and methods of wrecking your . The main antagonist you'll encounter, SCP-173, only moves when you aren't looking at it, SO you'll have to make sure to put something between you and it whenever you have to blink. — Source: SCP Wiki

Odama calls upon the pinball wizard to smite it's enemies. Stand by 00106 GRACKED.com This Gamecube game, one of the last released on the console by Nintendo, merges pinball with feudal battle tactics. You plow through enemy forces by using flippers to launch the Odama, the giant sphere controlled by the remaining members of the Ninten-do clan. You also use the microphone to direct your soldiers, clearing a path of ultimate pinball destruction. — Source: Gamespot

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and one controller. CRACKED These two brothers are close, close enough to use a single controller to move both of them. One brother moves with the left thumbstick and trigger, while the other uses those on the right. Each brother has different strengths, which you use in tandem to complete levels. — Source: IGN

Ij has an end-game weapon that ends the game. who CRACKEDO Unlike most weapons and powerups you get for completing a game 100%, the Null Driver in lji tends to break the whole experience when it's used. As you fire the end-game weapon, glitches occur, replacing the tiled background with art assets from earlier portions of the game, until it's impossible to move on. The only way to get rid of the weapon is to quit the game. — Source: TV Tropes

The Getaway gives you a minute to chill. CRACKED.COM This open world action-adventure game inspired by British gangster films is fairly grounded, allowing your character to heal by doing something we're all familiar with: leaning up against a wall until you can catch your breath. Sure, gunshot wounds miraculously closing up because you're taking a 5 second breather aren't super realistic, but we can forgive that. — Source: IGN

Dwarf Fortress and its ridiculously detailed combat system. CRACKED.COM The creatures you fight in Dwarf Fortress don't just have a simple number representing their overall health, they are made of flesh and bone and can BE killed in a variety of creative ways. If you don't sever an artery and cause immediate blood loss, don't worry because these wounds are permanent, SO a slow death from cumulative tissue or nerve damage is still on the table. — Source: Dwarf Fortress Wiki
