About
Hi there!

From my header, it is easy to tell that Mario games, Assassins Creed and Dragon Quest 8 are amongst my favourite games, I do prefer games with fantastic stories or fantastic game play. Both together are preferable, yet rare.

I have made a few mistakes in games, where I've died but not like "oh I just died", like it was a surprise and I was like "oh snap".

One of such instances was recently during a run through Resident Evil 4 (again). I was near the beginning, I had just bust open a door, shot gun in hand and there was a guy coming right at me. I've such skill as an instant head shot and his brains burst all over. Now, I was not aware that this can happen, but it did. His headless corpse kept moving forward, I've seen this before. But I was close to it, and it grabbed me and threw me to the ground. I was quite shocked and dismayed, as he had died by the time I got up, so no revenge. He got the last laugh...

Also more recently, in Brawl. I was unlocking toon link and so was facing him on the pirate ship, first time. I wasn't aware of that nice catapult at the tip, and thus when it was coming out, went to investigate. I stood right in front of it and WHAM! I got shot right off the edge. Almost died.

Countless moments I've had with oops. I'm sure you guys have had some too, no need to name them all, just your fondest or most recent.

What's MY biggest OOPS moment? Probably when I realized that I had been masturbating to a tranny whenever I played Street Fighter all these years...


I cried
Every once in a while when I'm playing Unreal Tournament III, I confuse someone I'm facing in a deathmatch with the environment (i.e. blending into a wall, fence, etc.) and I get my ass handed to me with a rocket launcher.
wow, MrSadistic beat me by a long shot. HOW EMBARRASSING!
I would have to go with anytime I am using a sniper rifle in a FPS and I forget to check behind me every once in a while. Its at its most embarrassing in CoD4 because I get to view the replay of a knife going into the base of my neck as I res. Spectacular.Yes.
Trying to land a Airship in BF2142 and screwing up royally by smashing into a building or tree. Damn scenery, GTFO of my way!Probablly at its most 'oops' when the ship is full of a bunch of other guys....yeah my ass is getting booted from the server.
So I was playing Rogue Squadron and i blew up the Death Star, funny thing was... I was Darth Vader, whoops!
@mikeyed

wtf that is a major fucking paradox, I'm surprised the galaxy didn't explode

Also, Silverhertz reminded me of something. When I play Warhawk, I randomly do a quick hit & land while in aircraft. Except it always doesn't work. So basically every time I'm going full speed and trying to dismount at the same time, I usually wind up crashing into a building.
Oh yeah. I can't land those ships in 2142 either, pisses off my team mates.

I can't snipe in COD4 either, the kill cam gives my position away. I hate it when I get sniped though...

That is quite the conundrum there mikeyed...
Maybe theyd sold out of his favourite food in the death star cafeteria
The Very first time I played CoD4 online, I started unloading on our own Helicopter. My friends were like "Why are you shooting our helicopter?" and I was like "oh" Good thing there is no friendly fire.

Also in CoD4, I have a way of Blowing my self up with my own grenades sometimes.
