Mind Over Matter: Difference between revisions

* In the game ''[[Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy|Psi Ops the Mindgate Conspiracy]]'', this is one of the first powers Nick Scryer "[[Gameplay-Guided Amnesia|remembers]]". Unfortunately, as is the case with just about every single power Scryer remembers in the game, one of your enemies is much more proficient at it than the PC; in this case, Edgar Barrett spends his boss battle hurling fuel tankers at you. However, through the use of cheats and secret costumes, you can match his telekinesis, and cut his bossfight wonderfully short by smashing his fat face in with one of his own 5 ton tankers. And, of course, you are then free to use it throughout the rest of the game [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|however you may choose]].

* Likewise, you get telekinesis in ''[[Second Sight]]''. At first, you can only move small objects with it. Once you upgrade it, though, you can force choke and throw enemies around like rag dolls. Another power involves throwing Mind Bullets, which may be a separate form of TK.

* Telekinesis is also one of the many powers available to Raz, the psychic prodigy protagonist of ''[[Psychonauts]]''. In the beginning, Raz begins with a fist of psychic force to use in fights and a "thought bubble" that he bounces off of to [[Jump Physics|double-jump]]. After he earns the Telekinesis merit badge, he can use the fist to lob objects and enemies through the air (and into walls). After he earns the Levitation merit badge, he can ride his thought bubble to bounce incredibly high and use it like a cartoon umbrella to slow his descent.

** Many of the psychics in the setting have telekinesis. Notably, the 13-year-old Mikhail uses it to restrain a local bully and keep him in mid-air. He also somewhat graphically describes the nasty stuff he can do to bodies of people held this way...

* In ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'', this is Ermac's signature power, and he's one of [[Big Bad|Shao Kahn's]] most powerful cronies. In ''[[Mortal Kombat 9]]'', it's revealed that he was the one who ripped off Jax's arms. He is one of the most blatant cases of [[Fridge Logic]], seeing as how he's evil and nothing is stopping him from simply decapitating enemies in seconds.

* Rose and Bison from [[Street Fighter]], as they're both powerful psychics {{spoiler|and share the same soul. Sort of.}}
