Age of Empires II: I always played skirmishes and one time I was fighting four AI with massive armies against me (because my AI team was dead) and I won.
Minecraft: I started digging a mineshaft and then woke up the next day and saw three creepers near my unfinished mineshaft, I lured one towards it and it fell in. I lured the second one towards it and I fell in. I lured the third one towards it and knocked it in, they were still alive so I used a bucket of water, drowned two and killed the last one with my sword.

WAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?! i dident even do anything at all and it gave me xp....im pretty sure that wasent ment to happen
My best gaming moment was probably on hard difficulty MW2 coop mission where you have to defend so many rounds in some burger joint well it was the end of a round so my friend runs out to collect a minigun turret when the next round starts and he gets shot so I have the choice of either waiting for him to bleed out and fail or run out and save him, so I run out and theres just a hail of bullets and explosions from gunships the UAV and BMP's I manage to destroy the gunship with a grenade launcher and reach my friend so I could give him the healing kick of life run back to the burger joint and still finish the mission.
GTA IV: A friend and myself decided that we wanted to try online freeplay. The idea was to see how long we can survive a police chase with one of use driving and the other firing at the cops. I the first to drive with my friend in the shotgun position, literally, in my choice of vehicle for this type of gameplay. A nice, heavy truck.
After about five minutes of the cops chasing us, I noticed another player had joined the game at some point. We had forgotten to password the game, so anyone could join. Granted, this was the PC version so there weren't many players looking to play online. Thinking nothing of it, we continued on.
Sometime later, we had collected a good number of cops and my friend -- who had unbeknownst to me, decided to take a few shots without her gun-- was firing drunkenly at the police. I was focusing on the road ahead when I spotted a motorcycle in the oncoming lane jump the median and head right for me. I swerved, taking a glancing blow and sending the rider flying. I look behind me, only to see this flying person smack right into the oncoming police and cartwheel over my pursuers. Then, his skidding bikes hits the lead cars, sending them flying. I slow down so I can continue to watch as a few of the police cars flip and the others pile up. I assume what happened next was my drunken friend got a good shot off. A cop car exploded, followed by another and another until the ten or so that had been chasing us were nothing more than several charred wrecks in the middle of the street.
The other player, after seeing what we were doing, decided that he wanted to ruin our fun by wrecking us. In a fit, he leaves the game. Just to top off the situation, my friend pipes up with "What the bloody hell was that?!?" over voice chat. Unable to answer, I sped away laughing so hard there were tears in my eyes. The thing is, I couldn't see where I was going now and after a few seconds I hear my friend yell "look out!" just as I plow into a lamppost, killing us both.
No other unscripted moment has ever come close to that.

I was walking across a wooden rickety bridge over a chasm in Crysis when a machinegun at the end of the bridge opened fire, I hit the deck(on the bridge) and the machinegun proceeded to shoot the supports, leaving me falling into the chasm below
My char actually started the skydive animation.
Awesome Indiana Jones moment

I was once playing Brawl with three friends and we were all fighting for the Smash Ball in a tiny area. I was playing as Captain Falcon and managed to get it and hit B straight away. A triple kill and much yelling followed shortly after.
Also playing MW2 MP and got stuck between four enemies with only my USP left. I had managed to get a claymore down before that and I killed three of them before the last one shot me in the back, though after that he ran straight into my claymore.
OK last one I promise. Again MW2. My team was down 7400 to 7100 (TDM) and I pulled out my Barrett and saw two guys crossing each other so I fired, the game ended. Turns out instead of two kills I managed to nail four of them and win the match.

Pretty much anything in the InFamous 2 demo. Once you get a hang of the controls you can pull off some wicked cool combos.
Oddly enough this one happened in the opening cut scene of Crysis Warhead.
Unscripted?! In a Cut Scene?!
I also had the old Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy radio play on, and just after the Truck Psycho is travelling in gets blown up Arthur Dent says, very sarcastically:
"Well Thank you Very Much!"
The timing was perfect, just enough of a pause and in just the right tone to leave me howling.

We used to play this game in GTAIV where you spawn the Annihilator helicopter, get a load of height and speed and throw yourself out of it, the objective being to land in the tiny lake in Central Park (or whatever the Liberty City version is). Well, it's almost impossible to do and never worked, but one time I handed the controller to a friend who's hopeless at video games but very intense about everything he does. He'd been giving out to us about how we were doing it wrong. Anyway, he gets up high and it's obvious he's going to overshoot. He banks the chopper hard to the right, flings himself out, Niko gets caught in the spinning blades and instead of overshooting wildly is blasted vertically straight down, dead... into the lake.
Other highlights included watching Niko pinball between two parallel skyscrapers and the odd time he came out of it with nothing worse than a sprained ankle.
My own personal favourite moment was playing Red Dead Redemption. I was going for the level 10 treasure hunter. I managed to fight my way through a tremendous storm all the way up that narrow trail to the top of the mountain, but as I dismounted to search for the treasure my trusty steed lost its footing and took a tumble off the side. I staggered back down to the base of the trail amidst the rain and thunder and started the long walk back to civilisation, only to catch a glimpse of the black stallion I'd been looking for for days. I chased it down and lasso'd it on foot before breaking it in the middle of the plains while lightning flashed around us. Great moment.

Best Random glitch ever. (If it's a glitch I guess it's unscripted.)
Red Faction Guerilla. I was doing a Collateral Damage mission in EOS when suddenly I see a brown streak speed across the sky and explode on a mountain. I go "wtf" and Jenkins keeps driving on. A couple of minutes later two brown streaks speed and collide in midair (by this time I knew they were gunships) and the area around me was strewn with wreckage and pilots "wtf'ing". Finally I get to the base, the mission ends and I know that I won't see the wreckage (it disappears after mission). As I jump off the cliff with my jetpack a gunship speeds across the sky towards my cliff and explodes right below me. It was going so fast when it exploded it glitched and left the afterburner flames right below me.
I love that game

That reminds me of another one. I was flying along in heavy metal and me and my mate go into raid the Russian base for choppers. I drop the blackhawk out from a rediculous height (so it blows up) get into the Hind. He goes for the Havoc but before he can get in it an enemy guy gets in. Just before he takes off I'm like NOOOOOOoooo and fly towards it, jump out and it smashes the Havoc into the ground, blowing both of them up.
One of the random events in Fallout 3 where the Wastelanders are arguing about water they found in a fridge outside certain buildings.
In one such case, I laid a bottlecap mine in front of a pair. Then, I walked to the leader, and put a live grenade in his pants. When he exploded, I quickly went to VATS, murdered two people thanks to Ol' Painless, then the pair (who were the only ones left) took a step forward and both of them killed themselves on the bottlecap mine I had laid for them.
Killed an entire group of Wastelanders in three seconds. Man, that was fun.

Had quite a few awesome unscripted moments while gaming, a few of my favourites have been;
While playing Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, I was doing a mission to wipe out some North Koreans in a town. So for I call in for about 8 artillery bombardments and sat back as everything in the immediate area gets levelled by the incoming shells, while at the same time trying not to get hit myself. Amid all the chaos two NK troops spot me and begin running towards me, when I heard the whistling of a shell overhead which directly hits the first of the on rushing NK troops. Undeterred by the explosive demise of his comrade the second NK troop continues to advance towards me, so I pull out my rifle and line up the shoot. However before I could pull the trigger, a flaming wreckage of a vehicle fell out of the sky crushing the NK trooper and sliding along the street before finally stopping just a couple of feet away from myself.
While playing multiplayer on Timesplitters: FP, elimination, no radar, snipers only on the Siberia level. I was lining up a head shot on one of my friends who was on the dam, when he decided to do the most heinous of crimes of screen watching, so he grabs a nearby speed pickup and dashes across the dam mocking me "try and get me now". At which point I was able to adjust my aim and get the headshot just before he could get back under the damn. Best kill I ever done in a multiplayer game.

im not sure if it was just my ps2 or what, but when i used to play need for speed carbon, i had a car that would move so fast that when a road block was set up my car would suddenly stop being made of matter long enough for me to fly through the road block without affecting anyother cars, thus began the adventures of gohst driver.
