would be nothing short of epic welcome

counting down our picks for the top 10
video game powers we wish for real
are you a fan of this video be sure to
subscribe to catch our latest show the
bolt III for gamers take an epic road
trip from San Fran to LA gaming all the
way coming soon to watch mojo for this
list we’re looking at abilities used by
videogame characters that we would love
to exist in the real world these can
apply to the power that come from the
character in question or via a specific
item
number ten cry oh man see Mortal Kombat
series there’s no denying that sub-zero
is one Google customer largely due to
his ability to freeze anything in his
path with a wide variety of ice based
moves whether they be projectiles
constructs or weapon granted we probably
wouldn’t use them in quite the same way
as the Lin Kuei Grandmaster since most
of us don’t actually want to kill people
by freezing them to death
however being immune to the sting of
winter and being able to literally give
someone you hate the cold shoulder would
still be awesome right do not test me I
merely hope to learn from you number 9
bionics Mass Effect series you ready for
action a set of abilities genetically
native to the asari race being born with
the powers of a biotic means that you’ve
got some pretty far-out Mass Effect
altering tricks up your sleeve
so strong I need this a welcome boost to
any Specter or Pathfinder the offensive
and defensive capabilities of biotics in
a combat setting are enormous whether
it’s creating barriers summoning all
manner of projectiles and shockwaves or
even manipulate gravity to send enemies
flying a well-trained biotic is the
truest definition of a one-man army
think of all the force related puns you
can make to
number eight blink dishonored series to
operate as a Master Assassin inside the
cities of dunwall
or Karnataka takes the skills that only
a veteran like Corvo attano could
possess well that and the unholy power
granted by that freaky deity known as
the outsider but whatever use this
newfound power my gift to you
in this case traveling over a short
distance becomes a breeze thanks to the
teleportation of blink swooped in on a
target execute a last-minute escape or
just leaping around the rooftops to find
some totally badass secrets if the mask
didn’t make done walls most wanted man
seemed otherworldly than this little
parlor trick makes him seem like a
full-on demon number seven plasmids
Bioshock
forgoing the process of dicing up little
sisters in order to fund the atom needed
to inject ourselves with these super
powered steroids in fact let’s just
forget the whole grisly backstory all
together the point is that these
plasmids kick total ass they’re also
quite handy when you have to deal with
splicers and Big Daddies in every turn
whether it’s bursting out the
ever-so-popular
electro bulk incinerate or winter blast
to Gotham elemental havoc using the
always handy telekinesis to send Andrew
Ryan’s cronies flying back or if you’re
really desperate you can recreate the
infamous not the bees scene with insect
swarm number 6 gravity control gravity
rush series
this one goes with that thing since
defined philosophies is pretty much what
having superpowers is all about granted
using cat’s ability as a shifter won’t
allow you to fly around the world it’s
likely a Superman since you can only
alter these fundamentals of gravity in a
specific direction then again you are
still flying through the air at Mach
speed and walking up walls so sign us up
creating those stasis fields and
summoning miniature black holes are just
basically the cherries on top number 5
Rivoli’s Gale the Legend of Zelda breath
of the wild
as any fan of the series can tell you
link comes equipped with a whole lot of
weapons and items that makes traversing
the land of Hyrule an epic journey like
no other but there’s been no ability
that we’ve enjoyed exploiting in a Zelda
game quite as much as Ravalli scale
where in arm ukyo manages to cause
updrafts that allow him to shoot up high
into the skies often for a smooth glide
when combined with his signature
paraglider it might not be the first
time that linked his manipulated air
currents but in terms of the amount of
fun that you’ve had you can bet that
we’re all too here to break wind like
link number 4 mimic mater pray after
seeing what this reimagining had in
store for us we couldn’t help but
include it on our list here in our
protagonist Morgan you can imbue himself
with spectacular typing abilities in
order to stave off attacks by the –
enemies this includes but is obviously
not limited to the power to shape-shift
into a variety of objects in order to
evade enemies and squeeze through tight
spaces the twist on this is you mostly
can become a mug or a chair or a kettle
or even a freakin banana truly you have
not felt the full range of gaming
pleasures until you’ve turned yourself
into a bag of chips in order to squeeze
through a door
number three augmentation they use X
series Jensen era specifically we’re
looking at the point of the franchise
where Adam Jensen took over as the
shades wearing poster boy and brought
with him a whole slew of technological
wonders since nearly everyone in this
dystopia has some kind of cybernetic
replacement it’s to be expected that
both lethal and non-lethal additions
would be added for our lead to exploit
everything from enhanced speed instant
hacking becoming invisible turning skin
into armor and of course the ever so
handy punch through walls modification
these augmentations truly do turn you
into a human Swiss Army knife emphasis
on the knife part of course number two
dagger of time Prince of Persia the
sands of time you ever had those moments
where you wish more than anything that
you could just undo a past mistake
wishing you could rewind time at the tip
of a hat well the Prince doesn’t have to
worry about that since he’s armed with
the one weapon capable of doing just
that with the hilt of the dagger
containing trace amounts of the
legendary time altering sand one can
move faster than an Evo freeze time
rewind it and even see glimpses of the
future where do we get one of those
number one two new key suit Super Mario
series it might be slightly ridiculous
in design but given that it grants you
the power of flight looking like a big
old raccoon is the least of your
concerns
one of Mario’s most handy powerup
outfits this costume holds the potential
to make its wearer a genuine superhero
each take out an army of Koopas dhenuka
suit running incredibly late for work
Tanooki suit need to make a quick trip
to the store for some milk to nuki suit
admit it if given the chance you would
take every opportunity to bust it out
and take to the skies fluffy tail or no
fluffy tail oh and you can also turn
into a statue because why not do you
