Killing GlaDos in portal.
After over a minute of listening to her taunts and quirts, I couldn't help felling bad about what I was doing. Let me give some examples of what she says:
* "Well, you found me. Congratulations. Was it worth it? Because despite your violent behavior, the only thing you have managed to break so far is my heart. Maybe you could settle for that and we'll just call it a day? I guess we both know that isn't going to happen... You chose this path, and now I have a surprise for you."
* "Deploying surprise in five... four... [morality core becomes detached from GLaDOS and falls to the floor] Time out for a second. That wasn't supposed to happen. Do you see that thing that fell out of me? What is that? It's not the surprise... I've never seen it before. Never mind, it's a mystery I'll solve later, by myself, because you'll be dead."*
* "That thing is probably some kind of raw sewage container. Go ahead and wipe your face all over it."
* "Maybe you should marry that thing because you love it so much. Do you want to marry it? WELL I WON'T LET YOU! How does that feel?"
* "I am being serious now. That crazy thing is not part of any test protocol."
* "Have I lied to you? [pause] I mean, in this room? Trust me, leave that thing alone."
* [After burning the morality core] "[Garbled Sounds] You're kidding me. Did you just stuff that Aperture Science Thing We Don't Know What It Does into an Aperture Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerator? That has got to be the dumbest thing that whoah, whoah, whoah. [Laughs] [In a much lower voice] Good news, I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a morality core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin, so get comfortable while I warm up the neurotoxin emitters."
* "Huh. That core must have had some ancillary responsibilities. I can't shut off the turret defences. Oh well. If you want my advice, you should just go lie down in front of a rocket. Trust me, it will be a lot less painful than the neurotoxin."
* "Keep doing whatever it is you think you're doing. Killing you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive. The rocket really is the way to go."
* "Two plus two is f-f-f-f... ten. [distorted sounds] ...in base four; I'm fine!"
* "That thing you burned up isn't important to me. It's the fluid catalytic cracking unit. It made shoes for orphans. Nice job breaking it, hero."
* "I'd just like to point out that you were given every opportunity to succeed. There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I invited your best friend the Companion Cube. Of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come either because you don't have any other friends. Because of how unlikeable you are. It says so here in your personnel file: Unlikeable. Liked by no one. A bitter, unlikeable loner whose passing shall not be mourned. 'Shall not be mourned.' That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you were adopted. So that's funny, too."
* "Speaking of curiosity, you're curious about what happens after you die, right? Guess what? I know! You're going to find out first-hand before I can finish telling you, though, so I won't bother. I'll give you a hint: you're going to want to pack as much living as you possibly can into the next couple of minutes."
* "I have your brain scanned and permanently backed up in case something terrible happens to you... which it's just about to. Don't believe me? Here. I'll put you on. [in a high pitched voice] Hello! [normal voice] That's you! That's how dumb you sound! You've been wrong about every single thing you've ever done, including this thing. You're not smart. You're not a scientist. You're not a doctor. You're not even a full-time employee. Where did your life go so wrong?"
* "Your entire life has been a mathematical error. A mathematical error I'm about to correct."
* "This isn't brave. It's murder. What did I ever do to you?"
I don't hate you...

Never felt bad about killing because;
A) It's a game and a game to make me vent my frustrations by mindlessly slaughtering villages
B) Most videogame characters have 0 personality or are not realistic so it's like I'm killing nameless enemy #101015015783

Portal, if that counts.
Also, occasionally in MOrtal Kombat. Sometimes, I just stop and say "This would be kinda sad if it weren't so funny!", after ripping someones arms off and watching as they bleed to death, or lighting someone on fire, only to have their screams of agony cut off by an explosion and some guy saying "TOASTY!!!"

No you're good, I think he was talking about the rainbow farting unicorn....well shit.Father Tunde said:MW2's No Russian level. I've killed civlians in games before, but I just can't stand the screaming. One of the reasons why I don't like disaster movies.
Roperius said:Actually, I was quite evil in that part of Undead Nightmare; I set the last Sasquatch on fire with the Torch. But don't worry, theres a glitch which put more in the ga- oh... I spoiled it, didn't I?Spawny0908 said:
I played all of Halo 3: ODST the first time through without killing any Engineers. Then when I went back to grind out achievements I had to kill the Engineers to get the 'Naughty Naughty' achievement. For the first time ever I felt bad for killing an enemy...poor poor Squishies
Soldier of Fortune. Shoot a guy in the leg and he grabs his leg and starts screaming. One time, my sadistic friend was repeatedly shooting a guy in the limbs and I was going, "Enough! Please! Put him out of his misery already!" Disarm a guy and he'll beg for his life. I usually don't have the heart to shoot him then.
Bad for? Yes. Bad about killing? Not really. It is truly tragic what happened to Saren, but he is still a crazed loon bent on bringing the engine of galaxy wide genocide back from exile. So I feel no regret after putting a bullet in his face.
(I do not count the Russian civilians in "No Russian" as enemies. They were more like the civilians later in the game only without the game over when you shot them though I did feel bad when I killed them. The Russian police in that level pushed it but once someone shoots back I feel much less bad about pulling the R1 button.)

I kinda felt bad once while playing Red Dead, i was trying to avoid killing people so i would often be shooting them in the legs and arms till they tried to crawl away... then i realized most of them are going to die of infections instead... i started shooting them in the head right after to make it end sooner
