I admit it, at one time I too fell for those pathetic gaming rumors that had me at the edge of my seat, Just waiting for rare items or character additions that never existed in the first place. Here is a list of the 5 most irritating game rumors we've all wanted to throw our game systems out the windows for.
Game: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow
Rumor: PokeGods
Cleverly named the Pokegods, these deity like Pokemon would punch holes though your opponent. And yet no one ever seemed to have one... These mythic monsters consisted of either Pokemon that were going to be released in Gold/Silver, Strange Pokemon evolutions that never existed, fossilized Pokemon from the Missingno glitch or completely made up.
Game: Final Fantasy 7
Rumor: Aerith Come back to life
Grief stricken fans unable to cope with the reality that Aerith was whacked by Sephiroth, felt the need create the rumors that you can Revive Aerith by mastering and reaching a secret level with the revive materia with an AP of 800,000... yeah. Well we all know how this goes down. It's time I set things strait. AERITH DIES!!! SHE DOES NOT COME BACK! Deal with it!
Game: Final Fantasy 6
Rumor: You can resurrect General Leo
Well as good things come, General Leo is one of the best characters in Final Fantasy 6. Too bad square only teased you with him before Kefka knocks him off. Obviously The grief stricken fans are never in short supply because this rumor says that if you fight 255 dinosaurs in the northern forest, you can gain a resurrection potion to pour over our dead generals grave. with that Leo rises from the depths to join your party once more. In reality, you gained 99 levels and defiled a good mans grave.
Game: Super Smash Brothers Melee
Rumor: Unlock Toad
Apparently you can unlock toad as a playable character by hitting all of the credits after clearing Classic, Adventure or All-Star rounds. Proven false but the guy who did it was hospitalized shortly there after for broken thumbs! Sorry guys, no toad in this one.
Game: Legend of Zelda, Ocarina of Time
Rumor: Get The Triforce
Sit down kiddies, this ones long. Buy the Triforce for 999 Rupees from the Kokiri shop owner. Sinking to the bottom of the (ice covered) Zoro's Domain and enter a cave. Hidden in the Deku Tree in an invisible treasure chest, But no one knows where. Toss yourself off the side of a cliff and catch on to an invisible string somewhere in the shadow temple. the list goes on. Don't waste your time folks, There's no way to get the Triforce.
So whether your a grief stricken fan or someone with a little too much time on your hands, Please stop the irritating rumors, You aren't fooling anyone... except maybe someone desperate... like me
