You see a waterfall. You know there is a secret behind it.

Nearly every game I've played, if there was a waterfall; chances are you would find:


A shortcut.
Items.
Stuff. >_>;

In Donkey Kong Country 3 you had to get that one vehicle that could go UP waterfalls. Does that count as a secret?...

Majora's Mask had that one area where you could fight those special monsters behind it's area, or was that a different place?...

Halo 2 has the Energy Sword by a waterfall in Ivory Tower...

Damn. You're right.>_> There are tons of special things near waterfalls.

Hydro Thunder on the DC, (and I'm sure other systems) Had a shortcut through a waterfall on the Lake Powel level.

I may be wrong, but didnt Final Fantasy X have a secret area under the bridge next over the waterfalls in Besaid? Sure there was something there...

In Ocarina of Time, the entire Zora city is behind that one waterfall. You have to play the right song to make the waterfall stop flowing, of course, before you can get in.

Earthbound, you had to wait like 3-5 minutes (can't remember the exact time) to get access to the area.

Yes there is a waterfall in Majora's Mask, with a door behind it in Ikana Canyon.

Like someone stated in Ocarina of Time, have something behind a waterfall.

In Four Swords for GC, there are waterfalls with caves behind 'em.

Legend of Zelda for NES, there's a cave behind the waterfall.

In the Wind Waker for GC, there's a sage in a cave behind a waterfall.

Link to the Past for SNES, also have a hidden cave behind a waterfall that lead to a Great Fairy (hmm, got to check out waterfalls in every Zelda game it seems like).

In Mario Kart 64, on the beach track there's a cave lead to out of a waterfall.

In Super Mario 64, there's a cave in a waterfall beside the castle.

And in PSO even, there's an area of boxes behind it from Ruins 1.

And more O.o;

Not a secret area, but in Animal Crossing, there's a specific fish you can only catch in the waterfall.

its actually a challenge thinking of a game with a waterfall that doesn't have some sort of secret behind it.

while reading everyones posts i was racking my brains thinking of a waterfall that didn't have a secret. best i could come up with is the waterfall in the mountain level of doa3, but its just scenery and non-interactive.

and a waterfall in a half-life 1 mod. might have been 'they hunger' can't remember. but that hardly counts since. well. its a mod.

if thats the first rule, the second must be: if theres a barrel, it must be explosive!

PEACE!!!

But that game's horrible anyways, it's allowed to break the rules http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Now if I ever make a game, there needs to be a waterfall in the game. And it will be SO hard to get to a point where you can get behind it, and you get something awesome. Yes, that's what I'll say.

Yeah, actually one of the more entertaining multi-player games I've played in recent years, and trust me, I know my games.

Only if you have a regular good group of guys to play with, though.
