Game moments that caused a *FACE PALM*

[mik2507]

*facepalm* to any AI in any Delta-Force game

 

[gostchiken]

The entire second half of MGS2.

 

[DJude]

in Assassin's Creed 2 the "It's a me! Mario!" line lead to instant facepalm...

 

[Stevepinto3]

The ending of Fallout 3 when Fawkes is standing right next to you. Whoever decided that was a good idea needs to be killed.

Also whenever a party member decides to betray you. "Oh yeah, this guy has watched my back for a long time now and I've seen him kill Giant Dragons, Demons, and tons of other horrible things, but I'm gonna try to kill him!"

The laughing scene in FFX. That made my skin crawl and balls retract.

This, except the balls thing.

Lucky you, it wasn't a pleasant feeling.

I'd think so. But it was so cringeworthy that it's not even funny anymore and it literally makes me want to shift my skin about from the crawling it most likely did. That's why I typically mute that scene.

I mean there are a few games with embaressing scenes, MGS3 when Snake is talking enthusiasticly about a gun, most dialog in EDF 2017 but that laughing scene takes the piss. I'm sorry but I think that is the first time I've ever walked out on a cutscene, I mean I watched it the first time but for subsequent playthroughs just no.

I think the same thing. I do the same thing whenever that scene comes on, I'd rather just go make a sandwich or something than watch that. I mean, I'd seriously rather sit through all of Metal Gear's cutscenes than watch that piss.

What were they thinking? I understand they were trying to produce a scene to make Tidus and Yuna closer whist dealing with the sadness and troubles of Spira, but it just turned into a complete mess. I mean I have been less embaressed when someone walked in when I watching porn, than if someone caught me watching that scene.

The laughing scene in FFX. That made my skin crawl and balls retract.

'HA. HA. HA. HA. HA.' *cringes* It was the worst attempt at laughing ive seen in a game ever.

 

[Catchy Slogan]

My absolute #1 that does it to me every time from Halo 3:

Nameless grunt: "Where do I tell them to go?"

Amanda Keyes: "To War..."

Oh, that annoyed me so much! No wonder the covenant are kicking our asses, It's a miracle they even teach the marines to hold the guns the right way round.

 

[He_Is_Legend]

I can't think of any major scene this moment, but I do remember an annoying scene from Metal Gear Solid.
Snake wants to exchange his gun with Maris'(?) Desert Eagle, and I was hoping he would, and there is a long scene where you see him offering her his gun. That frame is on-screen for 15 seconds, then the camera shifts to Maris who says "No, thanks".

 

[Amarok]

After years of having people talk aboot how amazing it is, playing Half Life 2.
My theory is that the entire gaming community plans on dumping pig blood on Gabe Newell with the release of episode 3, and they are just acting like it is amazing to get him excited so it will hurt even more when he is betrayed.

I'll admit that Half Life 2 is massively overrated (note that I still really like the game, and certainly didn't facepalm upon playing it, but indeed the way people talk about it you'd think it was a constant, electronic orgasm or something.)

HOWEVER, from Half Life 2 we got Garry's Mod, so any sleight can be forgiven.

OT: "From now on, if anyone makes funna me, I'll KILL 'em! Just like that."

"...Eddie... have you gone NUTS!?"

Bravo, James.

 

[Marsell]

One guy I was escorting in Dead Rising Killed himself when he got to far from the group
also people runing into my "chainsaw area"
FACEPALM

Who knows what they were thinking? I know exactly how you feel and I feel the same. Y'know all that snow on Mt. Gagazet? I think that's the clouds of leftover cocaine that fueled that script writing sequence.

 

[aegios187]

Everytime in Metro 2033 where I throw a throwing knife and it hits butt end first and bounces off announcing my presence to every enemy within a 50km radius of where I am. Better yet, I love when it literally bounces off cause you hit a belt buckle or something along those lines. Facepalm to the extreme.

 

[Norik]

End of Assassin's Creed 2. Need I say more?

 

[sirdanrhodes]

You can extract a palm from ANY FF game.

 

[ShroomMinus]

Getting killed by an M1+W pyro in Team Fortress 2.
Getting spawn killed on de_dust2 on Counter-Strike: Source.
Doing a 7 minute song on Audiosurf trying to get the ninja achievement and hitting a grey block a couple of seconds to the end...

 

[Sky Captanio]

The laughing scene in FFX. That made my skin crawl and balls retract.

'HA. HA. HA. HA. HA.' *cringes* It was the worst attempt at laughing ive seen in a game ever.

You do know that was meant to be like that? Because they were forcing themselves to laugh in the game.

OT: It's already been said but. "Where do we tell them to go?" "To war." Remote through the tv AND a facepalm.

 

[Gindil]

Bayonetta.

Just Bayonetta. *shudders*

 

[Babitz]

Almost every cut scene in DMC3 and DMC4. Just... Lame.

 

[Reg5879]

Whenever I get retarded team-mates on FIFA 10 Online Team Play.
