The OH-COME-ON-NOW Moment

[Phrytar]

That was mostly the only thing I was saying out loud while playing Demon's Souls.

Every time I'm cloaked and I bump into an enemy Pyro or enemy holding a shotgun. Since I use Conniver's Kunai and my max health is shit in a bun, four out of five times I'm instakilled.

Don't use it. Terrible weapon in general. In fact, probably about 80% of the weapons in TF2 are useless after the engineer update.

I disagree, no matter how many times the Conniver's Kunai screwed me over, it's saved my life many times. Often I'd be on fire or bled and get a backstab to save me life, or I'm low on health (shocking with a weapon that gives you the lowest max health, I know) and a backstab gets me overhealed.

I generally use it over the butterfly knife and definitly over Your Eternal Reward.

Interesting. The thing is, I think the play should be played like a paranoid freak. If you're constantly being set in fire like you claim, then you're not doing it right. I personally adore Your Eternal Reward, but not because it's a good weapon. On paper, it seems like something pretty bad. Trading in your cloaking ability for a couple of luck based chain kills seems naive, but it forces you to play like the spy should be played.

Granted, I would have spouted swear words, but I try to keep it PG.

I get that, but why the "now?"

Oh come on later!

A current one: as long as PSN is down I was replaying ACB to 100% the singleplayer parts of it, and I made it all the way through the f-ing War Machines Tank mission without getting any damage... then while I'm circling the last tank a bloody soldier scores a shot on me. 50% again! It's the only one I've yet to get.
I have HAD it with that mission. Screw the trophy.

(and yet I know I'll be back to it before long)

My friend is playing "Pirates of the Carribean" i think...a PC version with tonnes of Mods and things he says (i haven't played it myself). But he told me once that he'd defeated a batallion of ships and had just taken over the leading Galleon when he found some booty, the game asked him if he wanted to pick the treasure chest lock.
After clicking yes, a message came up telling him that whilst picking the lock on the chest, his hand slipped and he managed to impale himself in the chest, which killed him. I'd assume that was a bit more than an "oh come on!" moment

For myself, it was when i was playing halo 3 multiplayer with my friends (split screen), he was driving toward me in a warthog, going to run me over. I moved out of the way and threw down a trip-mine last second. He goes over the trip-mine, which explodes but for some reason doesn't kill him, the warthog flips into the air and 'splatters' me...

Okay, I got another, thanks to Portal 2. *spoilers*

At the very beginning when I met Wheatley, I thought to myself "Say, they went with a british voice actor. You know what would be stupid? If he was the villain at the end of the game."

...

Yeah...

Minecraft. Turning around after a looooong mining session to be confronted in the FAVE by a creeper who explodes you into lava. Not funny.

... However, despite being completely invincible, she has the armour lock ability. Basically, it makes you invincible for a few seconds. She used it when an Elite stuck her with a plasma grenade.

It made said grenade fly off randomly.

Into my face.

Did you film that? If so, I may or may not have seen you on Fails of the Weak a week or two ago.

OP: Whenever Fallout 3 or its successor randomly crashes and I haven't saved in twenty minutes.

Edit: WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW. [Shuts off Xbox]

ALSO! Alpha Protocol, the fight with Konstantin Brayko. df'lkasdhg;hq3'tc!!@#$%^&!!!!! that was frustrating!!!!!!!!!!

That was the crazy Russian cokehead, right? You have to get Steven Heck friendly, so he'll poison the dude's cocaine. Once that happens, instead of being invulnerable, Brayko will get dazed and extra vulnerable. MAKE HECK FRIENDLY. HE REALLY HELPS
