Shooting yourself in the head can summon demons. No really, I tried it. It works. (Persona 3)

You can die instantly from getting shot in the leg or arm. This also means you can get shot a couple times in the chest and be fine. And if this is a casual shooter, you can get shot between the eyes, wait a few seconds, and you'll be healthy yet again. (Most FPSs)

That talking to a girl everyday will not annoy them, but instead give you more love points (Harvest Moon)

Timbjerr March 30th, 2010 6:19 PM

slashing at somebody with a sword doesn't leave any visible wounds. Damage to the opponent is calculated by [attacker's strength stat]+[weapon might]-[defender's defense stat] and everyone has a set amount of HP. If you've got 1 HP, you can still fight normally, but once you've dropped that last point, you die instantly.
