Most absurd gaming moment

[Dom Uk]

When I was like 8 I was playing WWF Smackdown (I think) with my friend and we were just messing around.

I threw a huge box at him and he just stood there and took it, he then threw a watermelon back and my character was floored.

I still don't understand that to this day.

In Left 4 Dead on No Mercy, just before the end of the level before the rooftop finale, a Hunter spawned and started stalking me and my little brother. I hung back to get it, seeing as my brother was an amateur at the time. I spot the Hunter, he spots me. He lunges from about 15 feet away. Since I was close to the edge, I didn't want to get knocked off if he missed me and merely landed. So I closed my eyes, started bashing wildly, hear my gun hit flesh, and open my eyes to see the Hunter flying off the edge.

Where to start? In Oblivion, a Legion Guard was knocked off his horse by a Fireball. He layed down on the guard, ON FIRE. And he attacked me. But then again, he didn't. He was laying on the ground, and some invisible swordsman was fighting me. When I killed the menace, he just stayed on the ground....on fire.

Well, if it was a wooden empty box, I can sort of understand it. Watermelons are thick, and that box would have been esy to break.

Let me copy this text form my review of Psychonauts:

"I also liked the wacky situations going on in this game. For example, there's a dentist who is obsessed with brains; there's a world where dogs live in alleys, hiding from the bull El Odio, which symbolises a mad artist's torment, and their only escape is art; there is a talking mutated fish which tries to kill you, then befriends you and carries you around a lake in its mouth; there is a situation where your childhood memories (in the circus) mix with your camp counselor's (whose father was a butcher), and you need to run around a gypsy circus made out of meat, fending off crazy, mutated, rabbit-like creatures hell-bent on killing you while your counselor tries to catch a bunny. Need I say more?"

Yeah, I finished it a few times - AWSOME!

I would have understood it too if the same kind of box hadn't knocked him down a few minutes earlier

Playing GTA4 at my cousins house on multiplayer. I was going to snipe one guy and as his head lines up in the crosshairs... He suddenly goes into a lying down position and starts sliding around bouncing off stuff like a bumper car on mescaline.

All your base

In an Aleid ruin in Oblivion I killed a mage on the top of a staircase. He fell down the staicase(much to my amusement) and hit the bottom. Upon impact the corpse then began to whip around the small landing area, twisting and strecthing and flipping around at ubsurdly high speeds. I tried to get close only to be smacked away by one of his whipping motions and a good chunck of my health was gone.

Anything by Nintendo? and when I as playing Fable 2 I was near Bower Lake and two prostitutes appeared floating in mid air with a bandit underneath them. The banfit was unable to attack but kept running at me. After I killed him the two prostitutes fell down but neither were 'real' NPCs. They didn't have bars below their names stating their like/dislike for you.

In Overlord 2, I saw a lone soldier just standing around. Thought I'd just smash him but when I tried to, he shield butted me over and twenty swords suddenly sprouted from his one and cut me to sheds in seconds.

Turned out it was a empire shield formation that glitched and occupied the same space as a single soldier.

EDIT: How about the entire Monster Hunter Series? I refuse to believe an overgrown chicken is able to spit fireballs and tail whip its enemies. I also refuse to believe that a cat is able to steal a large barrel bomb from me and RUN AWAY CARRYING IT!
