I didn't know that there wasn't magic through the first half of Rouge Galaxy, and as such, thought that eventually, I would get a healing spell. You should have seen how many Game Overs I got (not really, thanks to their "switch-out party members" system).
I only found out about the Pipboy light, because a hint came up about it on one of the loading screens, did not know about the water, and I still haven't figured out how to put your weapon away without unequipping it either? 
EDIT: Three quotes later, and now I know. Thanks!
Anyway, best one of these for me, would have to be the first time I played through FF8. I got as far as somewhere on disc 2, and then gave up on it because I was getting my ass kicked too much. Returned to it later, this time actually bothering with skimming through all those tutorials at the beginning. Suddenly it came to me, just what that GF-thingy was, and how to use them. Well, I'll be damned! Had NOT noticed that. -_-

The combat in Prince of Persia (2008)... I could never get the hang of blocking, which made the already frustrating combat mechanics nearly unbearable... then, about halfway through my 4th time beating the game I figured out you had to hold down the shoulder button to block rather than tapping it at exactly the right moment, and in an instant I realized what Yahtzee had been on about in his review.
You will never see a facepalm as epic as mine on that day. Probably my most embarassing moment in my 16 years of being a gamer.

Why are there so few people who actually managed to do this?Daveman said:
I was playing with a walkthrough (the book kind) and I forgot it when I came over to play so I beat the temple no problem without it. It took like, an hour, but it wasn't hard.
In Second Sight, I took forever to figure out that tranquilizers to the HEAD is an instant takedown.
I cried. I really did.

Same game, console, didn't realize that either. Also, my friend showed me how to hotkey weapons. Didn't figure those ones out forever.sasquatch99 said:
the pip boy has a flashlight... shit. You're good buddy.IcemanFreeze said:
OT:
Yes, this happens to me all the time, but I can't think of specifics atm
Didn't know I had a flashlight or the power to run in Half-Life 2 until I was almost completely done with the game, meaning my method of getting around dark corridors was to choose random directions until I got somewhere different, although sometimes I ended up in the same place instead.
I also didn't know how to climb ladders for about a third of the game, because the second puzzle, where you're supposed to climb up and down ladders to get over a chainlink fence, I solved by stacking boxes, which is what I thought it was trying to get me to do!
