Words you learned from playing video games?

[423]

There are quite a bit of words that I've learned about from being a gamer. Although most of them I cannot remember for the life of me, here are some words that stuck to my somewhat utterly horrible memory.

Duration - Halo
Necromancer - Castle Crashers
F word, H word, S word, D word, ("Other words") - Grand Theft Auto
Circuit - Mario Kart
Sloop, Galleon, Frigate, Sergeant, Officer, Voodoo, Staff, Cutlass - Pirates Online

Those are all of the ones I can think of at the moment lol.

Hmm ... I don't exactly remember any of this but I'll try to list a few that I ( hope ) I know

Ocarina - The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time

............... That's probably it ... I guess I guess I don't really remember much of the games that I've played since I don't usually take note of their sayings but I'll go for ....

Spoiler: SPOILER

OOPABULOUS - OopaMazo

I don't remember what words I learned from which game, sadly, but I remember clearly that I learned the F word from Scarface: The World Is Yours on the PS2 because that's the most-used word in the game I may have heard it before but never understood it; this game beat it into me by repetition Almost every single sentence spoken in the game has it at least once.

When I hear weapons I think of monster hunter,

There have been so many that I have learned... I can't remember a lot, but I have learned:
A LOOOT of bad words from GTA Series
Embassy, stamina, and other things from Elder Scrolls Games
That's all I can remember sadly :/

True, good game isn't it.

There are some phrases (more specifically quotes) I've learned from Bulletstorm that I'd much rather never repeat. Not even as a joke.

On the other hand, I've lost count of just how many different words and ideas I've learned from video games. Swear words weren't on my list, however.

Well, since my main languagge is norwegian, and I played many video games as a kid, I learned lots of english words from the different games I played. The most memorable was the pokemon mystery dungeon game, where I learned words like fire, weather and dungeon. Btw, mario kart also taught me the word "circuit".

Mortal Kombat taught me the word fatality

 

[judikael]

"Miscellaneous" from The Sims Bustin' Out is the first that comes to mind, lol.

I have learnt so many words from gaming, i practically cannot list them all, gaming has just taught me so much that it stopped me from reading books a bit in that sense haha, however a few that stand out the most are:

• Inventory
• Charisma
• Miscellaneous
