Video game powers IRL: Which would you choose?

Mega Man's power absorption from defeating a rival. I can potentially achieve every power anyone else picked in this thread by killing them, with the major downside of having no powers to use against my first opponent, but I'm willing to take that risk. This way, I can snowball in power and eventually become absurdly overpowered and achieve the ultimate god mode without actually breaking OP's rule of not picking 'god mode' as a power.

I change my answer. My power is that I have no powers, and can never gain them other than this one because I'm an NPC.

I would like the ability to level up. Just convert all my life experiences into Strength Perception Endurance Charisma Intelligence Agility and Luck. Oh and perks would be nice. Or a HUD especially if it had my face on the bottom to show my status.

Can't argue that logic. Do you still maintain a weakness to pointy stuff making you explode?

Realtalk, last time I was in GameStop there was this kid who was ahead of me in line and he asked if he could get $60 for his white Wii because that's what they were selling it for, they told him he'd get $15 if it had everything, like the cords, the panel on the top covering the memory card/controller slot, the bar, and the Wiimote/Nunchuk. Then, with slightly renewed vigor at the thought he'd found a way to make the system work for him, he asked them how much money he could get for his Wii games. His face walking away was nothing but defeat that only a 10 year old could know after being told a lot of Wii games aren't even worth over 50 cents to their store.

Access to health pickups, the ability to jump like a happy-go-lucky Italian Plumber, magic chains with something sharp on the end, the ability to gain powers from my defeated enemies preferably in the form of one of their body-parts, and the ability to run into sexy women in the most improbable places who have a thing for pale dudes that wear whatever the Mediterranean equivalent of a kilt is.

Hopefully, like the games, I'll also just skip over the whole "part where I have to play the catcher" thing.

Being able to knock back a little red or blue bottle & have all my physical or mental strength instantly restored.

Also, that thing in WoW when whatever you're building- regardless of how complex an item it is- just take five seconds of swatting at an anvil. A full suit of plate mail? A bookcase? A new transmission for your car? Tang-tang-tang-tang-tang! Done.

Infinite Lives. Basically the ability to do dangerous/stupid/deadly stuff and just pop up again when I die. My life would be one long saga of extreme sports, record attempts, stunts and bad-assery.

3.)Sorry, but you can't have unlimited lives/continues. Going with the classic motif, however, you can have three lives but you'd come back to life right where you died or you get one continue...but you have to start over at the beginning. Of your life.

I want the ability to take so many bullets or injuries and regenerate my health ala every modern FPS.

Also, the ability to fast travel so I can go anywhere I want without needing a car.
 
The ability to do impossible parkour, especially the type where you can survive any fall as long as you land in a pile of hay.
