What games can you beat (if you were switched with the game's main character)

What games do you believe you can personally complete if you were physically replaced with the main character?

Take into account the abilities of the main characters. For instance, you would have to admit that you couldn't beat a Sonic game because of your own speed limitations, but you can speculate whether you could complete the adventure if given the same abilities as Sonic.

Tetris.

Uuhm... Thief 2, maybe.
Any game in which you take on the role of a general character (Is that cheating, a bit?)
Maybe Assassin's Creed.
EDIT: Monkey Island series.

Definately not any FPS.

I could probably complete the American part of CoD4 as i am now XD

I'm a good shooter, so I guess if I was as durable as the main character, I could beat Fall Out 3.

CoD1

BF2

Anything where you play an average soldier really.

RTS's aswell.

Myst.

Pokemon.

Hitman.

Hmmm, probably any game. Not because I'm a superperson or something, but because if I was in any game then we can assume that the type of world the game is set in would have the same scientific laws as this one, unless gameplay or story says otherwise. Hence, as a single example, I could easily kill General RAAM from GoW on Insane difficulty with a single headshot, as biologically that would kill him regardless. Hence as a sniper, since I do actually have real world weapons training, I would be able to hit him with a single headshot (given a clear shot, i.e. no Kryll), and thus kill him instantly.

The same logic can be applied to other games and situations, and indeed skills themselves. Those skills I don't have in real life, I would have anyway within the game, so I could probably eventually complete any game as myself.

I'd choose Black & White (2) for god powers and an awesome pet.

None. I suck.

Possibly Zone of the Enders, since Leo Stenbuck sucks even more than I do.

If I can have the abilities of the main character, Prototype. If not, I'd be able to do fable, I think. The magic is totally unneccessary.

the sims. how pedantic of me.

You don't generally play as the average soldier though. They normally have you play as Rambo.

That'd be why I chose the ones I did =]

Remind me to add Arma 1, Arma 2 and Operation Flashpoint 1.

the first few chapters of condemed 2 (after that it gets realy crazy) althoe to be fair I think people are forgeting the most important part in real world life or death situations Luck

Silent Hill? I just hope Pyramid Head won't come rushing on my ass.

-Portal
-any of the old Pokemon games (up to ruby for sure)
-Evil Genius (I'd be more effective than the actual Evil Geniuses in the game since they can't fight)
-Any game where you can respawn (Bioshock)

Crysis, but I'd have to change my strategy from run n' gun to sniping them while sipping a cup of tea.

Animal Crossing. Although carrying stuff back and forth would be a pain in the ass.

-Michael jackson's Moonwalker

think about it: it would be fucking awesome! I would get to wear a cool hat, shoot magic powder at bad guys, kill peolpe by making them dance to death, transform into a giant fucking robot that shoots lasers, and grab my crotch by hitting up on the d-pad! Even better, I would be doing it for a good cause! 'Cause helping the children is what Michael's all about [wink].

Pac-Man? Feelin a bit hungry...

I'd fancy taking a swing at Devil May Cry hehe, although i'd prob need a healthy dose of demon powers to last longer than 12 seconds

Mario Paint. :P

Sims 2. I'd be God, and you can't lose. Oh, and Mario Kart.

God Of War cause the goal is simple: kill anything that moves. Plus I am greek and I fancy the setting.

Well a game like X-Men origins: Wolverine would be quite easy. I mean come on, that guy is invincible.

But if i would have to use my own abilities, then adventure games come in mind, im not dumb.

Id say probly assassins creed and Zelda OoT,

Portal,I'm surprised nobody's said it yet.

Edit:

Dammit,ninja'd

I don't know, I'd probably die if I was a main character.

Portal
Legend of Zelda
Wii sports
GTA (well, in some cases)

There are probably more games which could be added

star wars force unleashed. With a lightsaber and the force I would be unstoppable plus I moved a pen with my mind and the force isnt even real actually the table might have been slanted.... hmmmm.....

Mass Effect, Resident Evil.

Just put me in these worlds, not only will I do the job, but i'll have fun too.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
And probably most Pokemon games, and RTS's.
