General

  • If it's a Most Dangerous Game type story, it's going to be this; whoever designs such games rarely give the hero much to work with.

Film

Newspaper Comics

  • In one old FoxTrot comic, Jason buys a game called Mortal Carnage II and lampshades how hard it is to pull off combos in Fighting Games:

Jason (reading the instructions): Let's see, to throw a basic punch, hold down, the "B", "C", and "X", buttons, tap the "Start" button, use the arrow pad to indicate direction and release the "C" button when the Force Bar tops 80%
Peter: That's a basic punch?
Jason: Whoops, that was an Uppercut, the Basic Punch doesn't use the "X" button.

  • And how do you kick? The game includes a fold out chart showing how to do that.
