Name a thing that has happened or is happening, where it seems it could only be happening in gaming (and video game industry).

Have you seen female-oriented erotic books?

Is it any different than male-oriented erotic books?

This isn't really a gamer problem, I think. More like "weird people who also happen to be gamers, feeling threatened by revulsion to their bizarre predilections."

While I agree, this is something that is happening right now and I'm not seeing it anywhere else right now.

I would consider double jump "gaming only feature" with the exception of very specific few movies based on the most popular games(didnt watch recent mario movie but i guess double jumping is in there :P ).

Ofc if im proven to be wrong and some1 quotes me with some ninja movie from the 70s where ppl double jumping in the air- i will accept im wrong here :D
 
To die, it takes two shots to the head or 3-4 shots to the body from an AK47. But its instadeath getting butt ended from any gun.

Almost every full budget product is priced the same at a predictable price like $70. I dont think there is one other industry that does this.

I was going to say male feminists that get exposed as sex pests but those are pretty common to every form of entertainment media huh?
 
Only in gaming can I accidentally commit an overt act of theft, while staring directly at the shopkeeper. (Friggin' Use key)
Only in gaming can I accidentally guzzle a whole bottle of vodka in the middle of a firefight. (Friggin' inventory)
Only in gaming can I - in the midst of casual conversation - accidentally issue a vile, schizophrenic death threat to the person on the other side of the conversation. (Friggin mouse-driven dialog boxes stuffed full of arbitrary evil responses)
