Title's self explanatory.

 

One funny gaming moment I had in 2013 when playing GTA Online. It was Christmas so my cousins were there. We were bored as fuck so they were like ''let's go kill some random dudes'', which I would normally be against but that time I made an exception. I was driving around in a Jester maybe? I don't know, it doesn't matter, when I stumble upon the first poor sod to stand in my path. He was driving a car with no armor but the guy was fast. I chase him through the highway (yanno, the one that goes through downtown LS) while unleashing a rain of bullets on him with my automatic pistol. Then boom! Up in flames he goes! Which resulted in my four beloved lil' cousins screaming at the top of their lungs ''OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW BOOM BABY GET REKT SCRUB'' and all that stuff (that was before I knew what this whole MLG ordeal was, which they clearly did know about). Of course, I joined the chorus. It may not look like much but I enjoyed this dumb little moment

 

Then, still on GTAO but without my cousins this time, I've had another moment, this one definitely more epic than the previous. So I had finally managed to get my hands on a Phoenix, right? Which are rare as fuck in multiplayer. I had just gotten out of the LS Customs that's all the way up north of San Andreas after some good ol' car pimpin', turning my already beautiful Phoenix in a downright sexy bitch, when I am attacked by some asshole in an Audi AND a guy in an Annihilator! Thing is, I had a bounty at the time. Coincidentally I had my PC on so I played Hans Zimmer's Molossus as this furious chase commences. Speeding through, dodging bullets from the ground and the air in a desperate attempt to reach my safehouse with the epic soundtrack on top of it all made for a truly legendary moment. Surviving the attack and accomplishing my objective made it all the more satisfying

I don't remember very many. But on Just Cause: Multiplayer I found it hilarious to jump into one of those shitty propeller planes lined up at the airport and kamikaze into other people. For a while I deliberately did it to people flying jets that were attacking everyone on the ground, but unfortunately it didn't really damage them much. Would've been so much funnier if it did :c

When I was around 15 my friends and I used to have a Counterstrike 1.6 clan. I couldn't make it in time for one match that we were invited to. My friends lost and left. When I joined the server I was all alone against the other team and steamrolled them all by myself three times in a row X3

And when I was 11 I was playing Crash Bandicoot 3. My mind was blown when I found one of the hidden levels all by myself and discovered that you can go beyond 100% completion!

Coffee, 8-9yo. When I was a tiny espresso me and my brother used to play the fuck out of a game called Star Wars: Demolition.

In a nutshell it is an arena combat game with SW vehicars. All of them have a chargable, powerful attack and we would string them together to pretty much suckerpunch the AI because some attacks rendered them powerless/motionless.

Good times.

apb reloaded.

a completely hackerwasted game by now wich was good in the beta.

i grabbed a dumptruck somewhere and drove right into the mission objective wich was filled with cars, got half the enemy team killed by a big ass explosion and somehow flipped my truck. i jumped out midways just to land in front of the other remaining and badly injured enemies i blasted over the railing of the platform we where on and followed them the same way down, hearing another thing blowing up in the back most likely the dumptruck.

all in all epic as fuck. did i survive? hell no. why?

as i was running away watching the scorched scene one of my packmates DROVE ME OVER.

and so i learned how important it is to always watch the road.

Playing San Andreas Multiplayer on a crowded server with a friend back in 2007 - I was sitting as a passenger in a Stretch (limousine) ontop of Mt. Chilliad, whilst repeatedly typing 'Somebody drive me, I'm in a stretch' in the global chat.

It took me about 10 seconds to realize how utterly horrible that sounded out of context. Even if it doesn't necessarily mean much, it just sounds dirty. I am yet to live that down, as my friend still says it to this day

Fallout New Vegas playing my chem junkie character after just finishing up Old World Blues and feeling pretty cocky I decided to head over Quarry Junction which I had yet to clear with this character.  I remove all of armor and clothing, unequip my weapons, and then take every single chem in my inventory, which at this point was quite a prodigious collection mind you.  I then proceed to run screaming into Quarry Junction and kill every single deathclaw, include the alpha and matriarch, with my bare hands.  By the end of it my character stood in his underwear atop a pile of dead deathclaws.

Fun note if you are taking Turbo, which gives you a bullet time like effect, and have the perk that lets you occasionally knockback enemies with unarmed attacks you can continue to knockback enemies while they are still airborne from the first attack.  Some of those deathclaws spent the entire time in the air as I kept knocking them back into the sky.

Taking my Xbox 360 to my friend's house and playing Halo:Reach on forge world and building our own fortresses and gamemodes. We stayed up all night laughing, messing around with each other and having a great time while eating loads of junk food. This is one of my fondest gaming memories. I miss my old friends...

Me and a friend bought portal 2 together on its release and played the co-op, had a lot of fun but there was one specific moment where we both got stuck on the puzzle with no idea on how to solve it. After about fifteen minutes of fucking around trying to figure that shit out we threw our controllers to the ground in desperation and I suggested some "brain food" jokingly, as if food would help us solve the damned puzzle. I grabbed us some oreo cakesters we bought for snacks and I swear to god as soon as we took a bite out of them we both figured out what to do in sync. It was beautiful, unexpected, and the birth of one inside joke that will never die, we can't keep a straight face around Oreos any more :l

One of many fun gaming moments, but one i will always remember because it was shared with a good friend :D

The Last of Us. That part with ellie looking at bill's porn stash was really the best moment for that game. It's bear porn! Gotta love that. =D

Southpark Stick of Truth. Man this game is so much win. Everything was funny and memorable. Especially that anal probe and aborted fetus scenes. Not to mention the thrill of dodging yer dad's balls while ye have an epic battle against the underwear gnome underneath yer parents. 

Until Dawn. That time where ye try to kill off everyone, gives ye a feeling of delightful satisfaction.

Kinda dodgy, but way back then I tried to pirate the first Need for Speed Underground. But torrents wouldn't work over my parents' network, so I tried to find a web download.

I was searching for three hours and couldn't find anything. But when I looked into my download folder I noticed a ZIP archive... When I unpacked it it was the actual game! But it was a weird version of it that was just 400mb because it was stripped of all the music files, there were no sound files and all the textures for the decals were missing. So the game looked incredibly plain but it did work! To this day I have no idea which site I got it from :P

Back near the release of Dark Souls 2 I made a PVP build based around the ladle weapon. Every time I beat someone with it;d I'd send out the same one line message "Welcome to the soup Kitchen."

 

I didn't beat more than a handful of people... >_>

There were some good times in Rift where my guild and I would manage to beat something difficult, but I can't really recall any specifics of awesome events. The only thing I really remember about my time in Rift (aside from all the bad shit that went down, ugh) was when I was in between guilds as a "free agent" so to speak. I was doing a high tier raid rift with the top guild on the server (one of the top guilds overall) and even though my class was not a DPS class I was still top 5 DPS at least, usually top 3. (I played Cleric as my main and this was before they gave Cleric more DPS options.) Once they ran out of rifts to spawn and had to stop, the guild leader asked me to join them because they had a DPS spot open in their main group and I did better than some of their regulars. I turned down the invitation because I had no interest in really hardcore raiding because of the high stress, which is what they focused on, but it was still pretty awesome to be considered.

This probably won't be awesome for anyone else.

So I was playing on this MC server:

http://www.empirewar.org

I had the archer class on a bridge, along with one other guy. 

A shaman comes(He can shoot fireballs), so we both readied our arrows.

He shot the fireball, I hit it back at him with an arrow, he hit the same fireball back towards my teammate, my teammate hits it with his arrow, and the fireball hits the shaman.

 

Another time, I shot a fireball, and an archer shoots the fireball towards my only teammate that could kill him, and he died by my fireball.

Friendly fire was off. 

I felt so bad.

It's not especially recent in this pup's life, but I'll give it a go:

Finishing both Stellar 7 and Nova 9 (the sequel; both rough-poly Dynamix games from the early 1990s) on my brother's computer when I was 14 or 15 in one night, intentionally without assist (aside from my brother watching) and earning me the Holy Tank Raven title of GIRPUNISHER. (As in Gir Draxon, the nasty-bottomed bad guy who becomes a cyborg and in both cases is the end target and boss.) This was before I sold my silicon soul and God Moded the crap oot of Ultimate Doom and Heretic in high school.

You know, I still have those install discs, box and all. Good memories!

Mario Kart Wii.

There was a clear distinction between the good players and the casual players when that game was released. If you were "good," you chose a bike and cut as many corners as you could. If you were casual, you stuck with karts and made use of the entire racetrack. I had the mindset of trying to cut corners with a kart that had awful turning. I hated bikes.

So in one particular online race, I was in 1st but I didn't have a terribly good lead. The remaining 11 racers, one of them being my friend, were directly behind and most of them were cutting every corner that I was cutting. My friend was one of those Mario Kart players who sucked at the game but always, always, ALWAYS got lucky somehow and won races. He wasn't mimicking my moves. I was doing pretty well not hitting any walls, but I fucked up a turn and hit a corner that put me in a complete stop. In Mario Kart Wii, if you hit a wall, you lose all momentum. No bounce, no slide - just a complete stop. If you hit another racer, they bounce. What happened next was the funniest mass collision I've ever seen in a racing game.

I hit the corner, stop. The racer directly behind hits me, I bounce. The one behind him hits him. Bounce. Then the heavies came in. And it just went on and on until 11 of us came to a colorful mess on this one corner, heavy characters ramming through the smaller characters and small characters bouncing around hitting racers into walls and into other racers. It was like a sadistic game of pool. Meanwhile my friend cruises around the accident, 1st place and laughing his ass off, because he didn't try to be fancy and drift like the rest of us.

That was years ago, but whenever I bring it up, my friend goes into tears.

It was 2007/8 , I was still blissfully ignorant of the internet , online gaming and mods. It was a simple time of couch gaming with friends. I had invited my friend  over to my house who had no idea how to play halo 3 , so naturally I booted up halo 3 and dropped us in a custom game. I spent the entire game sneaking around with an energy sword , jumping out on him. This isn't specifically the best moment but generally the days of playing halo 3 and reach with my friends on forge/custom games were the best. Building bases and battling it out.

 

I'm so happy halo reach's  reverse compatibility works well now, so many memories.

The final mission of World in Conflict's campaign. That game is amazing and I HIGHLY recommend it to fans of the RTS genre. Spoilers ahead for those who care.

 

 

The final mission requires you to liberate Seattle from Soviet control. At first it seems things are going well enough, you call in some airplanes to bomb Soviet ships. Then Capt. Webb unwittingly takes a sniper's bullet destined for Col. Sawyer, and suddenly all hell breaks loose.

I distinctly remember I had requisitioned several M270 MLRSs and stationed them at the foot of the Space Needle for on-demand fire support, alongside whichever units I had for other duties. They're soon earning the hell out of their paychecks because the Soviets are throwing EVERYTHING into one last push. I'm dropping daisy cutters and airstrikes left and right because it's fucking Stalingrad all over again and right at the worst of it... Contact with USAF is lost. No more air support. It becomes the most pulse-pounding, white-knuckle brawl I've ever experienced (and this was an intentional part of the campaign, not just a random occurrence).

And then when the tide is just about to turn... Mother fucking Col. Wilkins, fashionably late as always, shows up with reinforcements and airstrikes become available again. Cue the biggest, most badass explpsionfest of the whole game, and at the end of it all, fucking Whitesnake starts playing.

It truly felt like I had actually accomplished something.

Halo Reach.

I was the last man standing in a Firefight match, I unloaded round after round after round of my Fuel Rod Gun into Covenant troops and earned myself a shiny Killionaire medal and its associated achievement.

Also in Halo Reach, I managed to get the "If They Came To See Me Beg" achievement (by breaking an otherwise fatal fall with a backstabbing)
