Fictional drugs.

You mean William S. Burroughs (No H)

And how about the "New Ghetto Drugs For 2000" that was printed in The Onion quite awhile ago? I don't know if it's available online anywhere though...
 
i was watching some anime movie called Cowboy Bebop, and this guy had all these vials of red liquid, that you spray onto the surface of your eye.....they called it RedEye, and it seemed a lot like meth.

BTW there were rules for using Somas in "Brave new world." Take one quarter of a pill for happiness, one half for, um...something, and a whole one for a little vacation that could last days.

I just recently read that... there weren't any "rules" per say, those were just the little hypnotic suggestion sing-song things so they'd remember it all their lives.

I don't know about you guys, but I wish I could get hold of some of "adrenachrome" from Fear and Loathing... sounds like a pretty wild trip to me.
 
How about in William Gibson's book Neromancer or whatever with those Orange Octagons or whatever...

Now that i think abut it those could have been amps, i forget;..
 
they use some fictional drugs in robocop (the one you inject in your neck) and minority report (the thing you breathe) but they don't explain the effects.

Erowid - "The effects of exogenous adrenochrome have not been thoroughly documented, it is reputed to cause disorientation and hallucinations."
 
Aww yes, the Fallout series. :)

I loved the drugs in that game, although I only used the Jet in extreme situations, since there was no cure for the addiction. :D My favorite were the Mentats, that raised your intelligence and perception temporarily - but gave a nasty "comedown" once they wore off.
 
yes, in A Clockwork Orange they were drinking actual milk, but the bar had a few different drugs they could add to it. they talked about it near the beginning of the book if someone has a copy.
 
^^
milk, plus synthmesc, vellocet or my fave, milk with 'knives in it'

I'd love to find some of that 'ecstasy' stuff that's supposed to turn 'acid parties' into orgies.

or some acid that will make me fly :)

Well, this may finally concrete my computer geek status, but there is actually a cure for jet addiction in Fallout 2. It's a special sidequest.

Anyway to stay on topic, an interesting drug I've thought of were the gas bubbles that "the masters" use in the tripods trilogy. It sounds like booze in gas form.
 
BTW, don't you agree that the quest where you get to meet the geeky inventor of Jet and he explains the process is the best moment in the history of drugs and computer games? =D

ok... so there aren't that many drugs in computer games, but still ;)

Somebody stole my copy of fallout before I even installed it. What a gyp.

Speaking of great rpgs and drugs, has anyone here played all the way through Morrowind? Has everyone forgotten about the lovely skooma, moon sugar, and telvanni bug musk?

Were there any drugs in planescape: torment? I don't remember.

BTW there are a lot of drugs in computer games. There's a "health pipe" in postal and postal 2. Painkillers for max payne. Almost every rpg that is worth playing has mushrooms hidden in it somewhere, and if anyone remembers the "rise of the triad" series of games remembers what happens when you accidently run into a mushroom "powerup". There are plenty of games with drugs, the problem is that the drugs are usually make-believe and hidden from the casual player.

just as long as we're talking about drugs in video games...y'all remember the game rise of the triad? there was a level in there called the vomitorium (i think) and you basically just walked around eating mushrooms the whole time and everything would start to bounce all over the place...good times...
 
From Ghosts of Mars I think the drug the Lt. kept taking was Tetra Hydra Chloride or somthing I don't really remember. It seemed to be halluciagenic and relaxing.

And Drex-Dream from Tom Clancy's Net Force Explorers, One is the Lonliest Number. It speeds up your mental capacity insanley to allow you to calculate extremly fast for hacking. Downside, you are hooked after one dose and within weeks you will take a massive dose and die from dehydration and starvation.
 
Nice ones folks! I knew I'd get some good replies.
I agree with the drugs in video games. Seems like the two go hand in hand.
Mario pops shrooms.
Squaresoft's heroes huff ether.
Skooma and Moon sugar were good examples, also.

Anyone ever play a game called Pandemonium?
It was really easy and colorful,excellent while tripping.
The whole game was one underlying reference to drugs.
 
Hmn, was the lead character some kind of psychedelic harlequin? I seem to remember a weird platform game by that name, I'm talking like mid nineties...

"The orange spice Melange(sp?) from Dune.
Pro's: Traveling anywhere, anytime. That'd be handy.
Con's: It kinda mutates yer ass and turns the whites of your eyes blue."

YES!! The Spice is the shit! I fucking love the entire Dune series..I have long wanted to try the melange myself...However, I think I should clarify the pro's and con's of it man..

Pro's-Only the Spacing Guild Navigators are able to learn how to utilize spice to fold space and time, and they need tremendous amounts to do so (They actually are always swimming in spice gas)..This is why they mutate into beings with huge brains and small, frail bodies(they no longer require them)...Anyone eating spice even in small quantities experiences higher vigor, energy, euphoria, clarity of thinking, and possibly chances to grasp future occurences, or plans within plans.

Con's-A-fucking-ddictive!..One requires more and more with more usage as well..It's great seeing mad amounts of nobility, royalty, and others mad addicted to it lol..Shit, it basically runs the entire Imperium..This and the cost..Only the higher classes can come anywhere close to affording pure melange, though even the middle class eats some kind of diluted melange daily..

There are other substances in the stories too..Everything from sapho juice to speed Mentant thinking to the bile of the newborn worms that the Fremen first purify, then use for big psychedelic orgies..I am such a Dune geek I know lol
