[Question] Things in games you wish you didn't have spoiled for you.

Not a very good title, but I don't know what else to name it. >_>

Anyway, I was wondering if there's anything in games you have played or will be playing that had things (plotpoints, unlockables, etc) that you wish you hadn't known about before playing the game or unlocking the feature/character/whatnot.

The thing that made me make this thread is that I was thinking how I would have been really surprised to unlock Snake or Sonic in Brawl if I hadn't known about this. News coverage about games is cool, and these two were definately announced ahead of time for publicity's sake, but I can't help but think that it would really have blown my mind to have Sonic suddenly show up as a challenger if I didn't know about it ahead of time.

So, anyone else have experienced anything like this?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Pokey, I guess my intention for the thread is anything spoiled, regardless of it being intentional or not.

I just remembered that this happened to me with the Resident Evil plotline. I've never played any in the series except 4 up until recently, when I got the REmake and RE Zero. I guess playing through REmake would have been a lot more satisfying if I didn't practically know all of the key plot points beforehand with reading the plot analysis stuff on gamefaqs. I wasn't really expecting to play the game, after all.

Summonmaster's post reminded me of the No More Heroes things I wish I didn't know going through the game. While not really spoiled plot-wise, a lot of the character designs were shown in various media outlets, which kinda killed it for me when I met them in-game. I mean, good god, the 2nd ranked assassin's pict was even on the Japanese page of the game, while some of the ones before weren't there.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'll be honest though, it did make the emissary adventure mode predictable as hell.

Spoiler:

It would've been exciting to see ROB was that the guy behind the green cloak without knowing it beforehand .

As for Sonic showing up practically at the last minute of the emissary mode. I kind of chuckled at the fact he played almost no part in the game.

Nah, I think the first spoiler thing was foreshadowed way before that point. I expected it about halfway before that event.

How ya doing, buddy?
