P.S. Can I have your game collection?
Let's see what my lawyer has to say.
But...I don´t want your silly papers. Harumph, I´d better take a letter to my lawyer as well. This off-topic nonsense ain´t over yet.

...Now it is.

Attempting to emulate my friend, who once killed a Hulk in a fistfight.

It didn't work out so well for me.
Oh hey, was that a Marathon hulk? I remember those guys. I also remember taking pride in my fist-fighting skills (the pistol was useless on Total Carnage difficulty anyway). Sadly I got markedly worse at that sometime after switching to mouse-aiming and I never quite got back up to speed.

EDIT: Sorry, forgot to add something stupid. How about every time I stopped playing a game right before the end, only to go back a couple of months later and finish it in half an hour? System Shock 2, Half-Life: Opposing Force, Quake 2: Ground Zero... probably a more recent title too, somewhere.

I wish it wasn't, but Internet doesn't want me to watch your video...

EDIT: Oh wait...That's sound like a lawyer's challenge. The game is on!

gee i was eating while playing and had the mic on ... i bit the mic
just as bad had a cheap wireless mic on ... had to pee and it fell in the toilet ... no i didn't pick it out
is it still in the toilet? cuz i have a hard time imagining that it would've flushed without problems... :p

i know i've done some stupid things, but this one happened recently and is in my head. more dumb bad luck i suppose, but here's the story anyways.

I was playing Firefight in Halo. The Catch skull was enabled, so enemies were spamming grenades. I came out of the safe room and immediately see a rocket-pack Brute outside. he gets ready to throw a nade at me so i toss a plasma, it lands on his hand, or so i thought. i retreat and see the spike grenade plant the wall beside me, with my plasma on it. it explodes and sends the plasma onto my thigh. i don't know how i managed to stick the grenade that was in his hand. I had to laugh about it tho.

All the time on Fire Emblem, i get to the end of a hard chapter and i end up putting a unit next to the boss to soak up some EXP without comparing their stats......bad idea.
haha are you like me, where you can't stand to lose even a single person throughout the entire game? Im' like that too. If even the most useless character dies, one that I'll never use again, I have to restart the level, no matter how far I've made it.
OT: Fire Emblem, deciding a certain character won't help me in a level and is only in danger of dying, so leaving them at the beginning of a level for safety only to have enemy reinforcements appear on my exact starting position after the rest of my forces made it halfway across the map. Then having to restart.
Our pain is a painful one.
I cant stand it when i loose a unit.
I must restart, no matter how far i have gotten.
So i really REALLY get angry when i get to the end of a chapter that's lasted for at least 45min and one person dies because of a poor tactical decision.
Its even worse if they die because of the game, i cant tell you how many times a character has been taken out by a unit with a CRT of 3% or a HIT of 21%.

Rarely saved in Bioshock so when the game froze up I went back an hour and a half worth of gameplay

Remember in Pokemon Red and Blue on how there was a glitch to get Mew if you did all sorts of shit and he just appeared outside of a town (say Lavender Town for example)?

First time I did that glitch, I tried to catch him with a Butterfree (for the sleep powder effects and stuff). Without any effort at all, I killed Mew and couldn't restart the whole glitch. So I lost my chance to get Mew. :(

The Second time of stupidness was when I was playing Neverwinter Nights and decided to make a spellcaster character. The early part of the game is pretty hard to get through unless you have a character with good charisma to get out of combat. That's why I always pick a rogue. Their abilities may suck against constructs and undead, but I can avoid quite a few fights and nick all their stuff! >:)

Any FF6 fan will either get a good laugh out of this story or feel my pain.

When I was replaying FF6 one time I was doing a no grind run (because I'm cool like that), meaning I only get xp as I progress and don't go out of my way to earn xp off the main trail. Anyways, I was doing all fine and dandy and I was at fanatics tower to go take on that SOB known as the Magi Master....boy is that tower a pain. So I progress up the tower in a long and tedious gauntlet at me and my enemies are throwing magic left and right and I have perma-reflect on my party XD and finally get to the top.

Now if you know about magi master...you know that when he dies he gives you the big FUCK YOU and casts ultima on your party. Only way to prevent this is 2 ways, cast life 3 on your party and own him, or kill him after you have nuked his magic...which takes FOREVER (50,000mp for christ sake). Well when I got into battle I had realized that I hadn't learned life 3 for ANY of my party member......FUUUUUUUUCK!!! I had to sit there and do it the long way and constantly keep casting rasp, and osmos over and over and OVER for well over a friggen hour because like I said, this was a no grind run so I get what i earn on the way. So after nuking all his mp I could finally kill him but god damn that took forever, and i really should have remembered because if I screwed up, there was well over 2 hours of work down the drain.

To this day I still hate that bastard, he's just so annoying.

Team Fortress 2: anytime I lie in wait for some enemy to emerge from around a corner into my cunningly placed sticky bomb field...

... and then standing in it while hammering the detonate buttton. Almost worth it for the amount of angst it provokes from experienced players.
