One day, I was playing Counter Strike with my friends at the local cybercafé. Then I looked around, and saw a 12 year old Korean kid. I was first surprised, because Asians are uncommon here in Guadalajara, though they're usually plentiful near the mid-southwest of the town.

Needless to say, I was massively pwned by that little Korean dude. confused

Current Not So Proud moment: I'm playing the TMNT game based off the new CG movie, and it's pretty fun and not too difficult... except for ONE small task they keep throwing into the game: jumping back and forth and up through small vertical crawlspaces to ascend to new areas.

I. CANNOT. DO. IT.

It took me days to get through the 6th area because of these stupid spots and now I'm on the 8th or 9th and they threw in ANOTHER of those things, not only that, but while I'm playing as Raphael, whose special ability is to scale walls using his sai. But I guess not all walls are built alike, because this is just not an option and last night, around 11:30 pm I just started SCREAMING. My mother's room is right across the hall and my brother was awake at the time, so Mom shouts for me to get over it and my brother ran in, initially thinking something was wrong, and then finding out what was troubling me, laughing in my face.

In my defense, he couldn't perform the move either.

You just found one the major rules of gaming, NEVER underestimated a small kid.

I had one in this game called TRAPT. Basically in the game you play as this Princess and you have to set traps for your enemies to go into. Anyways it was my brother's game and he told me about this really cool trap called "the man-eating music box". The thing is I forgot all about it and was setting traps as usual, but I decided to go to this healing spot I found. So I was heading for it and I didn't notice the floor pattern was different at this one spot and I stepped on it. All of a sudden the screen faded out and dragged the Princess into this thing where gears started cracking her body, then this weird music started playing as the game shows you the music box, next she gets cracked by more gears and (there is a huge opening at the top) where she comes up at and then falls and hits the ground dead.

I sat at the screen for 5 minutes trying to figure out what the hell did I do. Later, I told my brother about this and he just said "damn"

I died so many times in the very first part of RE4 when you enter the village. xD Seriously, the chainsaw guy got me like, six times! Then I figured out that if you stand in the tower, the villagers will throw molotov cocktails at you for a while (which can bring you down to near-death but won't actually kill you off) and eventually the bell rings and they leave...

And once, I was just about to deliver the finishing blow to the final boss of Zelda: Link's Awakening when my GBC's batteries died. I was a very sad little Bwee. gonk

I'm playing Final Fantasy XII and I was walking around in the Pharos. I got to the 60 whatever-th level, past the place where you have to sacrifice one of the four resources. I had chosen the map because I still could use the SELECT button.
I got up another level...and ran into the Avenger. I did Quickenings, but he didn't completely die. He then killed everyone else and Renew-ed himself. I did the one thing anyone who played that game over one hunded hours would do in a heartbeat.

I ran.

I should have checked the map because had I done so, I would have seen that a staircase to the next level, along with a Save Crystal was right down the hall where I met the Avenger and the opposite way I was running.

Then I hit a dead end.
I tried to revive everone...it didn't work. The whole thing went on for about ten minutes even when I knew I was going to die the moment I saw "Avenger is casting Renew" flash at the top of the screen. Bastage.


...I tried again, encountering him as I came down the staircase that I was just a few paces from before. I killed the Bunes that were hanging around him and we were doing pretty well. But then we turned amune to everything, Quckenings didn't work and it was cheating; wouldn't let any buttons pop up. I saw he was casting Renew: this time I ran in the right direction, though someone was still hanging around even as I held R2 to flee...bet it was Balthier...

Never underestimate ANYONE. My story... Versing my little cousin in Halo, now he's only five years old and it was like his fourth time playing where as I've been playing for a REEEEEAlly long time... let's just say I lost, miserab;y. He killed me freaking thirteen times and I only got him like... seven times I think. so we verse in Starcraft to bring up my esteem. ( I'm korean lol )

Ooh, embarrassing moments...
Well, this is more embarassing for my brothers...They were having trouble beating the last boss in KH. I started a new game the same day and ended up beating him on my first try.
Brothers: eek
The same thing happened with KHII xd

Oh, yeah, and I was playing Viewtiful Joe 2...I paused during the fight with Frost Tiger and turned to my brother.

Me: Hey, wait a minute. How can he be Fire Leo's brother? I mean, he's a tiger. He's got stripes and everything. They couldn't be REAL brothers if they were completely different animals. Their mom had to be either a tiger or a lion- they could've had different dads, but that would make them LIGERS. Fire Leo is either a tiger or a liger.
Brother: ...Or they could both be lions. Cause, you know, the older one's name is Fire LEO.
Me: Why would you think- Oh...
Brother: smile
Me: redface ...SHUT UP. scream

One of the ones that comes to mind is from FFX. The second time you have to fight the Dragon thing that guards Bevelle. I spent all this time fighting it and was very proud of myself when I beat it. The next day all my friends just said, "Throw a phoenix down at it." It was undead so that would have ended the fight in a heartbeat.

Also in FFIV. It took me WEEKS to realize that to beat my dark knight version of me, all I had to do was DEFEND!


eek
Wait, WTF? Evrae is an undead?!
I CAN'T FING BELIEVE THAT! I'VE BEEN STUCK ON HIM FOR MONTHS! scream

*holds up hand* i have an insanely stupid one. -- Okay. When i first got Zelda the wind waker, never played it.... i knew jack squat about the grappling hook as you would imagine. WELL... i was in a dungeon that had a lava pit. a door. a little meaningless ledge.... and .... a long hall thing. (don't ask me i can't remember where it is now) ANYWAY.... well it only had one bar above. And i had already completed the task (in a very stupid way i JUMPED from the door's ledge onto the hallways.....) - and all i needed to do was to get back over. but the door's ledge was too high and far away to just jump again. I tried 'everything'. and i soon got so mad that i threw jars into the lava, and got JOY out of seeing Link die again and again by just jumping in the lava. But after half an hour (or more) ... i tried to hook again. I let him dangle for a second. then i pressed something. and he started to go UP the rope. after a few seconds i discovered you could TURN LINK ON THE ROPE.... and then got out of the godforsaken place. i laugh now but it was hell that day lol blaugh


My brother did the EXACT SAME THING. rofl

I'm very embarassed to tell this one. My friends and I used to have gaming parties at my house for a while. Each person would bring their game system and I would set up about five or six tvs in the living room so we could all play different games at the same time. Well, at one of these gaming parties I was playing Final Fantasy VII and I was going up against the last form of Sephiroth. I was sooooo close to beating him when he killed me. I got angry and jerked the controller really hard, which jerked my PS2. Which ended up jerking the plugs out of the wall, and turned off every single thing going. I started to apologize to my friends, and I ended up being pounced on by ten people. I was sooooo embarassed.


...I would've PAID to see that. rofl

I actually remembered the first time I ever played a video game. I don't know what it was but I didn't know how to save on my gameboy so I just turned it off, so I kept on doing the same thing over and over again so I'm like, 'Why do I have to get on doing this?' Then my brother finally told me I had to save XD
