[MediocoreUser]

Tell us about your memorable gaming moment but...


You may not tell us the title of the game you're describing. Put the game's title in a spoiler box or don't bother with the title at all.

You may not use proper nouns. Places and characters must be described.

Use details please.

Assume the reader has no idea what you're talking about.

 

[TheOneGuyInNebraska]

Learning that, no matter how many people you've killed and how many criminals you've brought to justice, the hero of this game still had to pay for his past, with his life

 

[Yan007]

Watching that town explode from a nuclear explosion from afar.

 

[Genocidicles]

Making peace with your own sentient mortality so that you can finally die and atone for your multiple lifetimes of crimes against the universe.

 

[Yuno Gasai]

Attending a character's funeral with two of the characters who loved her the most.

 

[Tom_green_day]

Loads of metal crabs flying towards this big green and blue planet while I bugger off, watching some small child get crispy-fried. All the while melancholic piano music plays, mixed with dubstep provided by yours sincerely metal crab junior.

 

[Amaury_games]

Mine is not necessarily about the game: I finally beat Dracula when I was about 8, after playing the game with my grandpa for a few months, and then we and my Grandma went to enjoy an awesome April sunset on the beach. My grandpa is an awesome grandpa gamer! ^_^

This boss kept butchering me with its counterattacks. I didn't understand a word of English, and so kept attacking when its tail was up. One day (I think this was my seventh attempt), my friend and her mother came to visit, and with their moral support I finally managed to beat it.

My joy lasted up until my mother came in, yelling that there's no time to play games when we have guests over. She pulled the plug on me before I could save the game.

 

[synchro_w]

had sex with a prostitute because i was told that could happen, then decided to run her over to get my money back just to see if i could - i could - then some idiot attacked me for no reason whatsoever & me being so low on health.. wait... was amazed to find my health had gone up a lot!!
woohooo!
i decided to teach this idiot a lesson w my new found medicare from the genitalia of a prostitute [i've always thought sex was good for you] only to get arrested after KOing him with a baseball bat & turning round into the ever embracing, loving arms of a huge fat policeman who took all my armor, my guns & some of my cash away.

oh.
this is about a computer/console game?

ummm...
it happened in a game!

 

[putowtin]

Dancing with my alien lover...
Even though the galaxy knows I can't dance!

 

[Spikethebloody]

Getting stuck in a cave, with only a cigarette to light the way, whilst getting shot at by bee's.

 

[WhiteFangofWhoa]

Crashing the shotgun automatic rifle wedding of the girl I love to a nihilistic blue-haired prick with an extremely well-armed flying ship, and taking on the entire army defending the ceremony once my comrades and I hit the ground.

 

[krazykidd]

Whatching an opera , learnt shortly before , the most beautiful song , about love and lost love between two people .

 

[MarsProbe]

Taking my team of loyal companions on a mission nobody expected us to return from, only to succeed and get everyone out of there in one piece, because that's just what we do! No bug-eyed alien is going to tell me any different.

That's a recent one, now for something a bit older:

Running down what I can only describe as a very long halfpipe with a friend (splitscreen), foregoing the recommended action of trying to collect the items of jewellery, instead opting to try and "collect" as much of the explosive ordinance dotted around the areas possible. Good times.

Captcha: donkey's years. Well yes, it has been quite a while. Thanks for reminding me.

 

[VaughanyT]

Walking into a dingy room in some half dilapidated apartment complex. I see a tablet on a table with a video waiting to be played. The voice from the video tells me that, in order to save my son, I have to cut off the end section of a finger so the sick bastard that came up with this "test" can watch. I only have five minutes to do this, so I race around around looking for anything to use. In the end, I go for a fire axe. Before I do anything, I heat up metal rod so I can cauterize the wound. Taking three deep breathes, I raise the axe, close my eyes, and chop....

Holy crap did this scene make me shudder.

 

[D-Class 198482]

Surrounded by flesh-eating monsters, I back up to a cliff, low on health. The boss of the wave is slowly approaching, and I know if I let him kill me, he'll regenerate all of his health. I turn to the cliff, still surrounded by monsters, take a deep breath, and jump.

 

[thesilentman]

Shooting my way through the equivalent of spike hell, flourishing with falling rocks and flying demons.

I dare you all to guess.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

There's a snowboarding segment that just won't leave my mind. It comes out of nowhere and it's probably only there because the game and the character are all about EXTREMES. The problem with this snowboarding segment is how impossible it is to control. There's another snowboarding segment later on but at least the second one was somewhat polished and actually playable. The big middle finger is how they expect you to grab collectibles as you're riding around on the snowboard.

 

[Kopikatsu]

Crashing the shotgun automatic rifle wedding of the girl I love to a nihilistic blue-haired prick with an extremely well-armed flying ship, and taking on the entire army defending the ceremony once my comrades and I hit the ground.

Final Fantasy X.

Castlevania 3. No, 2. Definitely 2.

This boss kept butchering me with its counterattacks. I didn't understand a word of English, and so kept attacking when its tail was up. One day (I think this was my seventh attempt), my friend and her mother came to visit, and with their moral support I finally managed to beat it.

Final Fantasy 7. Because I just played through it again recently.

Fuck you too, Barrett.

Saw II?

And now I stop ruining the fun because a depressingly large number of these are Mass Effect.

 

[LAGG]

Having lost all my ammo and health items in the boss fight, still managed a 20 minutes knife fight that ultimately led to victory.
