Title: Personal Gaming Lexicons
Post by: Satoryu on April 15, 2009, 10:30:17 PM
you know how gamers have their own sets of terms for things within games, right? stuff like "grinding", "spamming", "fireball motion", "bunny hop", "Ghetto jump", or "ISG (infinite sword glitch)".

well, do you and/or your friends have any of your own special terms you use in games?

i'll give you a ton of examples, spoilertagged below. these are all things me and my friends use while playing Smash Bros. Brawl.

[spoiler]- Luigi's side taunt and one of his victory poses is called The Dolphin.
- Luigi's side smash is The Poke.

- Peach is The [sonic slicer]. sometimes The Smug [sonic slicer].
- Peach's forward air is called Crowning.
- Peach's turnips are called Vagtables, cause guess where she's pulling them out of...
- when wearing her white costume, Peach is Wedding Peach.

- Bowser's forward B is Bowsercide when you kill someone with it.
- Bowser's up smash sounds like a very distorted PINGAS.

- DK's forward and up smashes are called The Clap.
- DK's Giant Punch is called the Donkey Punch.
- when wearing his white costume, DK is The Yeti.

- Yoshi's down B is Ring Pop, cause that's what it sounds like.

- Wario's up B is called the Wario Screw Attack, cause it functions just like a Screw Attack.
- the fart move is called a Poopeh. a fully charged one is a Full Poopeh.

- Zelda's side airmoves are called The Heel.
- her up air is usually accompanied by someone shouting Boom, so i guess you can call this Zelda Zelda Boom.
- Sheik's forward air is The Slap. we don't call it that anymore, cause it was so much better in Melee.

- Ganondorf is known as Dorf for short.
- his side B is Dorfcide if you kill with it.
- his forward air is The Big Black Hand.

- Toon Link is known as TL. that's pronounced "tull."

- After Samus uses her Final Smash, the parts of her armor left over are called Samus' Pieces.

- The computer controlled Ice Climber is known as a Guy. when that Climber dies, you say "Oh no. I lost my Guy."

- four of ROB's moves (up smash, nair, bair, dair) are Butt Blast.
- ROB's down B are dreadels. Happy Chanukah.

- Kirby's monochrome costume is called Mime Kirby.

- Meta Knight's down B is Zorg, cause that's what he says when he uses it.

- Waddle Dees and Waddle Doos are just called Dees and Doos.
- Dedede's up smash also sounds a bit like PINGAS.
- Dedede's up B is an onomatopoeia. it's called Hyup Boom.

- Olimar's Pikmin are called Ears. except the purple ones, which are Fatties.

- the three Starfox characters are Space Animals.
- Falco is also known as Farco, and Wolf is sometimes called Urf, cause Engrish is funny.
- Wolf's up smash is called Howwude, Uncle Jessie. cause Full House is the [parasitic bomb].

- Captain Falcon's forward air is The Knee.
- his forward smash is Turok.
- his up B goes by either Falcon [twin slasher] or just simply YES.

- Pikachu is The Rat. and that's said in the nastiest way possible.

- Lucario's standard B move is not only a blue balls joke, but it's also a one ball joke. so Lucario has One Blue Ball.

- whenever someone is hit with the tip of Marth's sword, they've been Tipped. the forward smash is a Big Tip.
- Marth's up B used to be called Twat. but he doesn't say that anymore.

- Ike is called Hurricane Ike.
- Ike's Counter is called Chocolate.

- Ness' back air is the Thunder Foot.
- Ness' yellow costume is Bumblebee Ness.
- his black costume is Hot Topic Ness.

- Lucas has been called Poocas on occasion.
- his forward smash is the Irish Walking Stick.
- his grab is the Trouser Snake.

- when Mr. Game and Watch's side B is 9, it's called simply 9.
- if you're hit by his forward smash, you've been Torched.
- releasing the contents of G+W's Bucket is Jizzing.
- spamming G+W's standard A move is called Pumping up the Pants.

- Snake's C4s are called Nows. if you are hit with a Now, you have been Nowed. if you hit yourself with a Now, you Nowed yourself.
- Snakes down smashes are called Laters.

- Ending (Yoshi's Story) is called Diego.

- Munchlax is Fatass.
- Latios and Latias are The Spanish Dudes.
- Barbara is called Boobra. have you seen how much sideboob she's got?[/spoiler]

that list may not be complete, believe it or not. i don't know if anyone has a list as extensive as that. but i'm just more curious if anyone does this sort of thing as well.

my friend as a kid had a naming system for the Foot Soldiers in TMNT Hyperstone Heist. they were given a name based on their color. most of these names were based on fruits. blue enemies were Blueberry, purple guys were Grape. the two exceptions were white and orange. the white ones were Marshmallow, and the orange ones were Cheese Doodles.
Title: Re: Personal Gaming Lexicons
Post by: Acid on April 15, 2009, 10:47:20 PM
I think I mentioned that already, but MM classic games always had these really big enemies that did nothing but jump while going your direction. I named them... Big Jumper.

Because I am originality incarnate.
Title: Re: Personal Gaming Lexicons
Post by: Jericho on April 15, 2009, 11:07:26 PM
I have a bunch for a lot of different games, but since the easiest ones for me to remember are Smash ones:

Waltzing - The motion of quickly walking back and forward as Marth and gaining forward distance thanks to Brawl's "unique" physics engine. It's called this since it really does look like Marth waltzes across the screen.

Tipped/Tippered - Simple. Getting nailed under the best possible situations with either Marth's forward smash, a spike after an aerial wobbler, or receiving a neutral B in the Phantom Hitbox.

Wobbler - Movement where the player quickly and almost unnoticeably shifts their momentum back by a bit, most often used when trying to start a pivot attack or in the air to catch someone returning from off screen.

Pivot attack - While running in one direction, tap the other direction and as the character's turning around animation begins, shorthop then front air (which at this point turns into a back air). Fox, Marth & Lucas all become more dangerous with this technique.

Cape Glide - Running off the edge of a stage or platform as Mario then using the Forward B (Cape) and your forward momentum to launch yourself off towards the distance. Catching someone returning to the stage with the cape while doing this is referred to by my sillier friends as "Getting Superman'd" or "Bugs Bunny'd". XD

Phantom Hitbox - The absolute edge of an attack that is possible to connect with. Sparks fly when you've barely missed this. This is referred to as nicking.

"Super Metroid-ing" - Playing a ridiculously good Samus. Can also be referred to as Sakurai/Smash Breaking. XD

Then here's a quick SMB3 on for ya:

Singin' in the rain: Short jumping and running through an entire level at full speed.

Finally. YOU SO PRINGLES. WHERE YO CURLY MUSTACHE AT? XD

You forgot....

"TWO SCOOPS! HAGEN DAS!"

"MAKE IT RAIN!"

...and of course...

"IT'S MAHVEL, BABY!!!" 

I love Yipes. Watch the new vid, if you haven't:

I swear, for the port of MvC2 coming up, Capcom should just hire Yipes to do the audio commentary. Millions of copies would be sold, as a result!

Without a [tornado fang]ing doubt!  It's Thugnificent!  XD

Okay, lets see.  PB's Personal Gaming Lexicons..

I'll start with Brawl...

-I'll start with the one Jelly knows OH SO WELL.  Captain Falcon's FS is known as the BFF, or Blue Falcon to the FACE! 
-Both Link & Toon Link's FS is not just known as the Triforce Slash, but it's known as the DBZ Style "TRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFOOOOORRRRRRRRRCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEE.......SLASH!" which MUST be yelled
-Zelda's kick is the Z-BOOT, which MUST be yelled when it kills someone!
-Ganondorf sword taunt is known as the ASS SWORD, which MUST be yelled every time it's pulled out!
-Sonic's victory theme is the DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN, which MUST be yelled at the appropriate time, followed by a thumbs up!
-Fox's Fox Fire is referred to as the Kaioken Attack. Yelling this is optional!
-Lucario's Aura Storm is the KAMEHAMEHA, which MUST be yelled!

That should do it for Brawl, unless I think of more later.  Next, Mario Kart...

-(MK64) Banshee Boardwalk is MY LEVEL, because I never lose on it.
-(MK64) On Wario Stadium, there's a maneuver when a person who is about to jump over the pit gets shrunk by lightning, and he intentionally gets in your way so that when you hit him at the top, it causes both of you to fall, thereby costing you the race, even if you didn't use the lightning.  This is known as a Mendez! Yelling out this name is not necessary, but will most likely come out anyway.
-(SMK & MK64) Green Shells are Ricochets
-(MKW) Lightning Cloud is and will always be called CLOUD AIDS or [tornado fang]ing CLOUD AIDS!

That's about it for Mario Kart.  Onto Halo 3. Only one thing to mention here.  It's called JEEP ACTION.

Now, you may think JEEP ACTION simply refers to the process of jumping in a Warthog with your friend and driving around killing people.  But there's so much more to it.  First off, your friend operating the gun turret has to yell random things at the person he's firing at.  Mind you, nothing racist or anything like that, but such comments like, "Come on out [insert name here]," "OHHHH, YOU [tornado fang]ing SUCK [insert name here]," or "Look at this dumb bastard!" should be yelled (I really don't do my friend justice.  It's really an art for him.)  Second, the person driving must constantly honk the horn, to let the poor bastards know that death is coming for them, in Jeep form, and there's little they can do to [tornado fang]ing stop it.  While the horn is being honk, after your friend kills someone, a celebratory, "HONK THAT HORN, GREGGIE! [insert your name here]!" is customary.  All these factors are necessary to experience the unbridled joy and fun of JEEP ACTION!

More to come...

I don't really have any specific lexicons/lexicon entries that aren't already widely known by the gaming communities. I do make a difference between a newbie (a completely new player of a game that has no idea what to do), a rookie (a completely new player that, because of past games, can find his way around relatively easily) and a n00b (a newbie with the Idiot stat skyrocketed to outer-atmospheric levels).

Title: Re: Personal Gaming Lexicons
Post by: Hypershell on April 17, 2009, 04:49:59 AM
Huh, I may have to update this one seeings how I don't often think of my own gaming terms.  But I have a few:

General gaming:
Sharking - Hacking into a game using an Action Replay, other such "game enhancers", or save editors.

Shark-bait - Games which are EXTREMELY tempting to hack on account of certain items, tactics, or unlock requirements being insane/unrealistic/excessively meaningless time-killing.[spoiler=Examples]-Mew, and other "event-only" Pokemon back before we had Wifi.
-For that matter, pretty much the entire IV/EV system post-3rd-gen Pokemon.
-1-star ranking 150cc on Mario Kart Wii.  I got a perfect score and the game still letter-graded me [tornado fang]ing B.
-Red rings in Sonic Colors.  Being the ONLY game to feature Super Sonic in 3D stages, it is the ultimate gaming cocktease.
-Pretty much every Alatreon body break in Monster Hunter Tri, should your choice of weapon be anything other than a bowgun.  Webbing alone is hell; I don't see how anyone after a Skypiercer keeps from destroying the totality of existence.[/spoiler]

Rhythm Impaired Gamer - People who jump in Godzilla Unleashed when they were trying to grab a building.  Honestly, folks, if you can't shake the remote and nunchuck at the same time, train yourself on Raving Rabbids before you even TOUCH any other motion-control game, because that's just pitiful.  Yes, "professional reviewers", I'm talking to you.

'man, plural: 'mans - Pokemon, derived from that "Let me show you" meme.

Dragonite power! - My typical Pokemon battle cry, testament to my favorite 'man, who I absolutely refuse to build a team without.

Barfos - Those SMB3/NSMBWii critters that hock up a spiked ball before throwing it at you.

Pogo-Stick Cyclops - Big Eye (MM1).  I refuse to dignify that monstrosity by using its proper name.

Mega Man X: The Lost Levels - Fastest way for me to summarize Mega Man X6 (and a good way to get an idea of whether you will or will not enjoy it).  X6 and SMB2(J) are highly comparable in terms of their presentation, their use of old resources, their lack of involvement from their respective figurehead series developer, their difficulty, their fairness, and their general uniqueness compared to other games of the series.  Had X6 been withheld from the U.S. on the grounds of being too difficult, I'm sure more people would have loved it.

As useless as Bubble Man - One who suffers an incredibly stupid and/or embarrassing death/loss, to the point where they clearly posed no threat to their opponent whatsoever.  May refer either to myself or others, but especially to easy boss fights, ie: Spark Mandrill.
(thank Duane and Brando for that one)

The collapse of Mario Kart 7 society - Maka Wuhu.

Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! - You know that fingery thing that they do in the Super Mario Bros. movie?  Victory celebration for my brother and me whenever we destroy the Death Star in Star Wars Rebel Strike.


Super Smash Bros. Brawl specific:
-Yoshi's Final Smash absolutely requires yelling, "SUPER DRAGON POWER!"
"Failure To Land Fish Screwed" - What happens to Akamaru when he attempts to charge an Aura Sphere at the edge of The Summit while I'm jumping around, and the single reason above all else that I wish my "?! I still hungry!" taunt would show up on Replays.
Stress Relief - Bob-ombs only, Very High items, 99 Stock, 300% damage.
Terrain-Impaired Brawler -  People who, because they constantly whore Final Destination, get utterly dismantled in Yoshi's Island Melee, even without items, due to their complete inability to fight on a slope.  Core skills my ass.



Melee Peach's Grab+Forward at over 100% damage = B.Slap of Doom
Gotta object to that one.  The true Bitchslap of Doom is Daisy vs. Bowser in Mario Party 3.

See here at 1:40 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpDbr-HDuVA

Wedding Peach~ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedding_Peach) ^^

If I, and others I've told, have been able to figure out the undeniable "truth" about Bowser, others could! Especially if they start making it "plain", such as making Bowser start rapping. And I dunno if Ninty would be ready for something like that. 8D

After the trouble that Jynx got them into, I don't think that's going to happen.

Personally, I'd have likened her original skin color more to frostbite than to race, but whatever.

the fat blue robots in Air Man's stage that blow air in your direction. i call them Billy.

Thunder Beam is also known as GOYA.

Popla Cockapetri is known only as Chicken.

and back to Smash Bros, getting bounced hard off a wall or ceiling is called Wall O' Pain or Ceiling O' Pain.

Posted on: April 19, 2009, 02:33:26
a couple more i just remembered.

Pit's yellow costume is Pee Pee Pit. and his black costume is Emo Pit.

also, if there is a pink enemy in any video game at all that i don't know the real name of, like the nurses in Viewtiful Joe, i call it Pinky Roader. even if i know the real name, i might still be inclined to call it Pinky Roader.

cause Gunstar Heroes is awesome.

Posted on: April 20, 2009, 21:40:13
these'll keep trickling in as i remember them.

a few more Brawl ones i remembered. and i'm amazed i forgot some of these.

- Gemuo's Final Smash is called the OctopUUUUUUUsy.
- Saki is called SA~~~~~KI~~~~~~~, which is usually followed up with a Good Morning, Airen.
- the whale on Pictochat is named Fudgey.
- in Pictochat, the set of lines where the one on the far left is vertical, and they get more horizontal as they move to the right. we call that Domino Rally.
- the mine cart is called The [tornado fang]ing Mine Cart.

this next one goes for any game:
- when someone (or someones) is beating someone else really bad in a game, they are Bitching them. those who receive such beating are said to have been Bitched.

some MvC2 that doesn't involve ice cream, potato chips, or the NBA:
- Iron Man's Photon Cannon is called the Protein Cannon.

and characters in Fire Emblem are called FEs, pronounced "effies."

Bumping this up cause I feel like it.

I have a ton of BlazBlue stuff to share now. And I might even be missing a lot of it still. Things are listed by character.

Ragna:
- His orange color scheme is Citrus Ragna.
- His purple getup with green hair is Joker Ragna.
- Hell's Fang has earned the name Hell Spank.
- Therefore, Ragna is called Spanky.
- Really, most of his moves could be modified to include Spank. Dead Spank, Gauntlet Spank, etc.

Jin:
- His qcb move, commonly called Ice Car, is also known as Ride the Icening.
- His hcb,f+C Distortion is Pierce My Enemy!

Noel:
- Usually called Spammy Noel.
- Her yellow scheme is Bumblebee Noel.
- Optic Barrel is always called Hands Off the Panda!
- Her Drive is called Shake 'n' Bake.

Rachel:
- Sometimes abbreviated to Rach.
- One of her color schemes is black and orange. That's called Halloween Rachel.
- Her electric attacks are usually called Boom cause of how loud they are.
- Unlimited Rachel's Sword Iris is called Oh [tornado fang] That! cause of how cheap it is.

Taokaka:
- Hexa Edge is called Berserker Barrage. You must imitate Wolverine when saying that, bub.
- Almost Becoming Two is either Taokaka Boom or Soul Body.
- Imma Beat the Crap Outta You is simply called Tuna.

Tager:
- His green color scheme is Hulk Tager.
- Spark Bolt is Tager Shot, imitating Tiger Shot.
- Genesic Emerald Tager Buster is just called The 720.
- Playing off Spanky, Tager would be Buckwheat.

Litchi:
- Sometimes mispronounced with a soft i on purpose.
- Chaining off of that, she can also be called Litchfield, named after my friend's street name.
- I may also start calling her Pandatits.
- Her purple color scheme is Layer.

Arakune:
- His pink costume is Bubblegum Crisis.
- His orange costume is either Citrus Arakune or Tang.

Carl:
- I may start calling Fuoco Fucko if my friend doesn't learn to stop spamming it.

Hakumen:
- Any of his C moves are called TSENGYA!!!
- Spamming said C moves is CSPAMing. Which I'm sure is where the nickname C-Men comes from.
- His blue+white color scheme is called Blueberry Pop Tart.

Nu:
- Her black+purple color scheme is called EVA Unit 1.
- Again playing off Spanky, she's Alfalfa.

In Pokemon, "gravy-training" is when you let a Pokemon gain experience without actually participating in a fight by switching it out right away.  Or using Exp All, I think that counts too.


Yoshi's Final Smash absolutely requires yelling, "SUPER DRAGON POWER!"
SUPER DRAGON! *clap clap clapclapclap* (http://www.somethingawful.com/d/awfulvision/falcon-dragon-chicken.php?page=9)

*clears throat*

Hey, Koopa subjects, it's time to learn!
Sit down, listen up, or you'll feel the BURN!

Gaming's got many words, so few ring true,
but I've got my own word that'll slay the grue!

DAT WORD, you ask, yeah, what's the word?
Like Zero, Get Ready!; it's the best you've heard:

Stuffing! Yeah! You can tell 'em to stuff it!
Shove a handful of quarters in that arcade bucket!

No time to stop playing and you know you'll get jacked,
so it's time to stuff it so your beat ain't whack!

PEACE! WE OUT!

Not sure if you hear me when we play but I sometimes call the orange Arakune "Orange creamsicle Arakune" and paink haired Bang "Pink lemonade Bang". XD

Just a couple more to add.

Back to BlazBlue, Arakune is sometimes called The Kun. So his 2C is called Kun Kar, though sometimes it's also been referred to as Doom Train.

And I have some Castlevania ones. The leather whip is called the Pussy Whip, or sometimes to be even funnier, Puss Wagon. The fully upgraded whip is called the Mondo Whip.

'man, plural: 'mans - Pokemon, derived from that "Let me show you" meme.

Barfos - Those SMB3/NSMBWii critters that hock up a spiked ball before throwing it at you.

Pogo-Stick Cyclops - Big Eye (MM1).  I refuse to dignify that monstrosity by using its proper name.

Pop My Cherry! - What you yell at a close friend when you want out of a bubble in New! Super Mario Bros. Wii

Got Mah Suit! - Snatching the better of any two power-ups that are randomly given out in most blocks during multiplayer. This must be said a la Randy playing the Juggernaut in "The Juggernaut, [sonic slicer]". XD

Mariowned
- Losing a life because player one scrolled too far ahead of the rest of the group.

Mushroom Mooch - Any player that picks up your character when they have a power and relies on it to get themselves through it.

Oh wow, I can't believe I forgot this gem this whole time.

It's one my friend made up, actually. In Mega Man 8, in the Rush Jet sections, when you get the weapon that makes Rush shoot bullets in a spreadshot formation. He calls those Rush Rice Krispies.

Posted on: December 08, 2009, 07:38:48
Wow this thread is older than I thought. Whatever, I don't care, I'm reviving it.

Now that MvC3's been out for a few months, I imagine people have some lingo they use for it. I got some.

- First, as you probably know, it is imperative that you shout BIONIC ARM when a Spencer uses it. Well, I got a similar thing. If a Magneto uses Gravity Squeeze, you must spread your arms forward like Magnus. Shouting the name in a hammy fashion is optional.
- Doom's Plasma Beam is called Blast Puppy. That's what one of my friends thought he was saying.
- Hulk's Gamma Crush is called Hulk Bomb because the sounds it makes on a clean hit sound like a ticking time bomb.
- Finally for now, on this week's Wednesday Night Fights, the commentators were quoting Double Rainbow (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI) when a Zero would use Rekkoha then XFactor cancel into another Rekkoha. I was cracking up.

There's a bunch of others I use that I can't take credit for. Big Poppa Pump, Bubbles of Fun, Buff Bagwell, America's Favorite Combo, Dog, Lassie, Scooby, the list goes on.

Shark-bait - Games which are EXTREMELY tempting to hack on account of certain items, tactics, or unlock requirements being insane/unrealistic/excessively meaningless time-killing.  Examples:
-Mew, and other "event-only" Pokemon back before we had Wifi.
-For that matter, pretty much the entire IV/EV system post-3rd-gen Pokemon.
-1-star ranking 150cc on Mario Kart Wii.  I got a perfect score and the game still letter-graded me [tornado fang]ing B.
-Red rings in Sonic Colors.  Being the ONLY game to feature Super Sonic in 3D stages, it is the ultimate gaming cocktease.
-Pretty much every Alatreon body break in Monster Hunter Tri, should your choice of weapon be anything other than a bowgun.  Webbing alone is hell; I don't see how anyone after a Skypiercer keeps from destroying the totality of existence.

Dragonite power! - My typical Pokemon battle cry, testament to my favorite 'man, and the fact that I absolutely refuse to build a team without him.

Those wierd things Vile shoots at the ground in Megaman X1 and X3 that look like yellow pulses are called Butter Buds. Because they remind me of butter.

Likewise, the football shaped shots used by almost every enemy in Megaman Legends one are called French Fries.

Marvel lexicons might seriously be some of the best stuff around. Most notably to me currently are an alternate take of your Magneto comment where everything else is the same, but you pronounce the move as "Grabbity Squeeze". Cracks me the [tornado fang] up every time. XD

Here's some relating to move notation. You know how forward, down, downforward is called a Dragon Punch or DP? And how the command for Geese's Raging Storm is called the Pretzel? I've got a couple like that. First is quarter circle forward, half circle back. I call that motion a Daifunka even though Bang is not the first to use it. If you do it backwards, as in quarter circle back, half circle forward, that's a Reverse Daifunka.

But there's one command that I was annoyed at for the longest time because there wasn't a good name for it. Half circle back, forward. Well I thought about it for a long time and I came up with an easier name for it: Fishhook. That's what it most resembles if I trace it out.

For some less complicated stuff, if there's a double tap down motion, I just call it a 22. And for a move that's down and a button in the air, I switching between calling it J2x, filling in whatever button is used, or I call it a Lumbo, named after a spammer of those types of moves. Elbow drops with Tager all the time.

Otherwise I just use standard stuff. Quarter circle forward, quarter circle back, DP, RDP, 360, 720. That's when spoken aloud. If I'm typing, I'll typically use number notation.

Here's a few of mine.. Other might be funnier than mine..

Rosenkreuzstilette ~Blades of the Rose Cross~
"Playing Tag" - Luste's stupidity can be exploited to make fighting her a LOT easier. Whenever you get close to her, she'll leap over you like Metal Man does, except in this case there's no conveyor belt to unwillingly move you all over the place. And whenever she's trying to get away from me, I'm like "Oh, playing 'tag' now are we?" since she loves to play games with Spiritia. Even though she's an idiot, I still love her~ <3 X3

"Mocking Death" - Similar case with "Playing Tag", but not as easy or exploitable; you'd probably need good timing for pull this off. During the second phase of the battle with Thanatos (a.k.a. Raimund Seyfarth), he'll fire off a counter attack if you press the Fire button and jumps from one side of the screen to the other if he's hit. This is where it gets kinda funny. With Seelegewehr and proper timing, you can smack him with a fully charged Seelegewehr while jumping over his counter attack, quickly slide to where he was after he jumps over, Seelegewehr [sonic slicer]-slap him again while hoping over his red scythe beam of doom, wash-rinse-repeat.

More to come...

I don't have any personally (at least not yet), but I remember a few from the early videos of SSoHPKC's Killing Floor. He would call the enemies pretty funny things:

Stalkers - Invisibitch 
Scrake - Chainsaw guy 
Crawlers - Spider things 
Sirren - screaming bitches 
Bloat - Fat man
Husk - Missile guy

Thats all I remember.

Pardon the necro-post, but this is a fun thread, and I have a few recent additions:

Mega Man X: The Lost Levels - Fastest way for me to summarize Mega Man X6 (and a good way to get an idea of whether you will or will not enjoy it).  X6 and SMB2(J) are highly comparable in terms of their presentation, their use of old resources, their lack of involvement from their respective figurehead series developer, their difficulty, their fairness, and their general uniqueness compared to other games of the series.  Had X6 been withheld from the U.S. on the grounds of being too difficult, I'm sure more people would have loved it.

As useless as Bubble Man - One who suffers an incredibly stupid and/or embarrassing death/loss, to the point where they clearly posed no threat to their opponent whatsoever.  May refer either to myself or others, but especially to easy boss fights, ie: Spark Mandrill.
(thank Duane and Brando for that one)

The collapse of Mario Kart 7 society - Maka Wuhu.

Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! Glug! - You know that fingery thing that they do in the Super Mario Bros. movie?  Victory celebration for my brother and me whenever we destroy the Death Star in Star Wars Rebel Strike.

Majora's Mask Fail: a fail that is so bad it's hilarious. Taken from when my friend was playing MM for the first time recently and drank the potion for Koume right in front of her. (Luckily, Kotake gives another free one with the line "You hopeless child... Make sure this one actually reaches her.")

Snooper - The Sniper class often goes around and doesn't stay in the same spot for long, but does manage to slip into enemy territory far more successfully without being detected by the brother class, the Spy and getting kills without ever getting noticed amongst the chaos.

Demomaniac - As Demoman, you often shoot five stickies ahead of you.

Heavily Useful - Most likely as the name suggests, as a diffrent class, you end up playing a rowdy playing style more suited to the Heavy.

Road Hog - Bump everyone out of the race track imaginable, and be the biggest douche in all of racing.

Crosseyed - Someone who has a hard time seeing past the crosshair of a FPS game. Can be said for gun-totin' maniacs who rather burn their bullets in a psychotic manner.
Title: Re: Personal Gaming Lexicons
Post by: ViperAcidZX on February 06, 2012, 04:14:09 AM
Just thought of this one while post at the "What games are you playing" Thread.

WAVE MOTION Gun - This is something I plan on using on Earth Defense Force 2017. The "WAVE MOTION" part stands for Waste and Vaporize Every Mofo Obliterating and Terrorising Innocent Orgamisms Now. If no one has heard or played EDF 2017, the "mofos" are the Ravagers (aliens) trying to wipe out the "innocent orgamisms," in other words the human beings. Also, "mofo" interchangeable with the F-bomb.

Bumping up cause I had a great idea. This below...

But there's one command that I was annoyed at for the longest time because there wasn't a good name for it. Half circle back, forward. Well I thought about it for a long time and I came up with an easier name for it: Fishhook. That's what it most resembles if I trace it out.

Scratch that. I got a better name for it: RDLR or Riddler. Because those are the primary directions you go if you're on the player 1 side. Right, Down, Left, Right. Trying similar with forward and back (Fidbif) or toward and away (Teedat) don't really work as well.
