Your moral event Horizons, in gaming.

[KingTiger]

In call of duty World at War, playing as the soviets, your commander orders you to shoot 3 germans who surrendered. If you dont, the other soviets burn them alive.

It was depressing :/ I tried turning on the Soviets and shooting them but the game just blacked out with "You are a traitor to the Motherland", I could have taken on the 12 soldiers and the captain easily.

Had to shoot them to save them....painful even though they are just pixels...it felt pretty real

 

[infinity_turtles]

In Black and White, I purposefully raised the most loving and caring creature possible, just so I could then force it to eat villagers against it's will.

 

[DazBurger]

The Sims, luring people into the pool... Then deleting the pool-exit.

Saints Row 2, refusing to drive on the road, instead using sidewalk.

Oblivion, Fallout 3, KOTOR1+2, Jade Empire and ME1+2. Making the world a better place... For me.

That sequence was even worse for me, because I had a grandfather who was a German solider in North Africa who was a POW for most of the war.

 

[Tattaglia]

Using the Force to make Zalbarr kill Mission.

I instantly thought of this.
"Hey little girl, seeing as you've been a pretty big help to the team and all, I'm going to force your best friend to kill you."

 

[ellistoner]

Whenever I play mass effect 1 in a renegade style, I can't commit genocide on the rachni (or however its spelt. You know, that bug thing in a cage). I don't even know why, I just feel really bad after I do it and re load the last save game a few hours ago, just so I can keep them alive :S

But on most other games when I act like a total bellend, I don't feel bad about it

 

[WINDOWCLEAN2]

I have never gone true evil in a game. So insted I will tell of my opposite story to this:

Playing Fallout 3, I was a neutral character at level 6 that looked out only for himself and wasn't willing to take huge risks (Due to playing on high difficulty).
This changed however after Iaccepted some 'Strange meat' from some passing hunters.
I was later shocked to discover that it was Human meat, I was so distraught at this I have since set my character to be a Saviour of the Wasteland. I am Now a level 27 very good character with not one event since that gave me Bad Karma.

 

[Vie]

I tend to be a good bloke in most games.

Bar Dungeon Keeper.

Muhahaa! Oh the screams of heros strolling though my layer upon layer of gas traps in a room sealed with magical doors. Only to fall before my might and be dragged off to prison. There to be fed and cared for till there healthy enough to go into the torture room.

Dark Mistresses! Your skills are needed.


Also I used to slap the chickens in the hatcheries while I was waiting for my imps to mine enough gold for my next building spree.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

Jurassic Park, Operation Genesis.

I used to construct a cage, stick 3 t-rexes in it, starve them, then delete the fence (And the park enterance) and watch the rexes eat all the park guests.

 

[Hiphophippo]

In Sims 2 I made a boring, elderly couple named John and Jane doe. I built them a normal house, like any other, but in the back / hidden room resided a dungeon. They would lure sims to their house for cake and tea only to trap them in a cell in the dungeon. Sims generally died there in a stone room with only a window to the outside world, but nobody ever heard their cries. They generally died in puddles of their piss and vomit from the spoiled food I fed them.

It was probably the only time in gaming I've ever stopped, considered what i was doing, and stopped. It was just too evil.

 

[Outright Villainy]

If you play it recklessly, Niko Bellic comes across as a right cock.

I blame the ragdoll physics; it's immensely satisfying watching them tumble across the bonnet of your car at high speed and roll down the road in a mess of limbs until they crash with a sickening thud into a lamp post.

[KnowYourOnion]

I don't do any evil things. Hell I feel sad when Marines in Halo die.

I routinely go out of my way to save their asses for some reason, hell I have a hard time playing renegade on ME most the time.

Me too. I was in the pits of depression when I accidentally crushed them trying to maneuver my way around these rocks. I was laughing as well though...

Wow, I thought I was the only one who did this

In sims I once made a sim get a girlfriend to move in with but locked her in the attic only occasionally bringing food to her before Woohpie and leaving her for extended periods of time, its weird because i usually have a hard time being evil but the sims always activates something in me

It would have to be releasing the essential code off the children in Fallout 3, I took a nice trip to little lamp light with my trusty BlackHawk and give all the children that were inhabiting the cave a nice bullet in the head

 

[Jedamethis]

I'm a really nice chap, do good things help people. But- Hey! Look at all that shiny stuff! And nobody's looking!

nah thats quite normal, I enjoy it too!

 

[The Procrastinated End]

Hunting down every last person in Fallout 3 with Vengeance, Jack, and a lot of bottlecap mines.

 

[Kavonde]

Using the Force to make Zalbarr kill Mission.

You can do that? Back for another KotOR playthrough, I think!

Let's just say that regardless of what the "official" canon is, the Dark Side ending is way more fun.
