I was playing Halo: Reach on Countdown. The enemy were swarming out of this wide door, which all my teammates threw grenades into, killing a few, taking down the shields on the remaining two and obscuring it with smoke. I got out my pistol and emptied my small clip blindly into the smoke... and got a double kill. This is proof that the spray-and-pray method works damn well, in my view.
My friend also had a moment in the Reach Beta on Invasion, where he had a jetpack (which had got him up high but was now recharging slowly), was falling down to earth, and accidentally pressed B when he was just about to hit the ground and take a lot of damage. It turned out he'd been right next to this cloaked guy, who happened to be facing away from him - so he assassinated him (which enters this third person animation whereby you stab the target) and thus broke his fall.

one time me and my brother were having a sword fight with plastic swords (you are never too old for this btw) and right after we finished, he tried to hit me on my back, and i used my right hand to catch the tip of the sword on the back left side of me, completely without trying. it was glorious.
True, any game that either use luck to determine the effect of a attack or have a easy, no penalty or buildup kill move is badly design.Chapel1185 said:
Skip to 4:20? There's a difference between a game and real life (Hope you know that). Human body can fail. What happen in the match was that Kimbo got hit in the eyes and couldn't recover. They said this IN YOUR YOUTUBE VIDEO. In a video games, there should be equal chance on each side. Making something like a Kill move random doesn't make it awesome, it make it weak, insulting and unfair. Fighting game should always have as a premise that everyone can beat everyone fairly through skill.dathwampeer said:
I Was Playing MW2 With My Friends, I Threw Semtex On One Of Them, Messing Around, Some Guy Runs Into Him And Gets Blown Up For The Game Winning Kill! 
In BC2 there was a blackhawk harassing my team, the defenders. I grabbed an RPG fired from the hip and hit right on its tail.
It was a clan match on call of duty 4 i hadnt played for a while but as i played semi pro on it still were better than my clan that were made up of my real life friends.We were playing in a tournment and we had done okay but had reached the knock out stages to find us going up against a decent clan and my mates were abit worried. We were on ambush in hardcore team death match
So i thought we will be defensive hold our side of the road and let them come to us.After two minutes of a few shots being fired across the street and nothing else really happening.We quickly realised that they were doing the same thing so playing as i normally do stealthing behind enemy lines.I told the guys i will sneak in cause a bit of panic and hopefully it will push them out onto the road so i mates can tear kill them in the open.
So i disappear under the road and the back up there side and over the fence.No one saw me do it so i started going around knifing everybody in the back.The enemy started panicing and tried to figure out where i was but i kept moving around there lines and taking them down.
There spawn moved to the grass part with the digger the bomb site in search and destory.That was on the opposite side of the same side of me but instead of moving out on to the road they carried on trying to pin me down.But i was running around all over the place shooting them even thou i was always out numbered then i brang out my helicopter.
Then i turned to my mates asking have they pushed onto the road yet and they were like no we still havent seen anybody.I asked really as i was pinned into the corner with heavy machine gun still killing people as they tried to finish me.Next thing i hear is my mates saying "shit spygon is 28 to 0 and no one has killed anybody else yet then one of my other mates chimed in i am so gald he is on our side everybody laughed".Then knowing nearly the whole enemy clans focus was on me i told my mates to rush across the road that they did killing quite a few enemies until a grenade went of near me killing me on a 32 to 0 score.
As the map opened up with battles going all over the place the game quickly ended with a huge win percenatge from my clan. Proberly the best i have ever played and spent nearly two minutes fighting off an entire clan.I was like i cant believe i just did that

So you misread or just skim over the very first part of my reply? REALITY =/= VIDOGAMES. So, that point is the only point I agree with you. It can happen in real life but [HEADING=1]Should it happen in video games? NO![/HEADING]dathwampeer said:
No, it introduce a random chance that the winner would just being lucky despite the level of skill of the opponent. It can be implemented, but it should Always come with a price. A good example is the Guilty Gears series. The Insta-kill move are bound by the tension meter and if you didn't land the attack or get knock on your ass, you lose the tension bar. Beside, it's no fun to play a game where the variable of the game are taken from your hand, you never know if you deserved to win or did it by pure luck.
Answer me theses:
How can you make a fair fight when the variable of each hit are random and that any moment, you could pin the opponent by luck?
How can you be sure that it isn't triggered by a player or that the player can get it to work when he want to?
You shoudn't assume that i post this in anger or that anyone that post a reply on one of your post to be doing so in a spite of anger. It doesn't speak highly of you. That aside, I basically said why it's such a bad idea that any game should have that mechanic build into it.
Oh! And by the way, you should chill out too. It's the internet, there's more then 7 billions of us and making a Issy fit because someone doesn't agree with you isn't the way to respond to someone that just want a nice discussion.

Jesus Christ, one guy reports what may well have been a glitch in the game that caused something awesome to occur instead of doing something bad like ruining the game or bricking his console and you two turn it into an argument on realism vs escapism.
The pair of you sit in a corner and think about what you have done.
To the OP:
Very awesome bit of fun you had there.
Counter-Strike. De_Dust2. Playing as CT walking down long (left from CT spawn).
This was back when I just started with FPS in general and was a total newb. 5+ terrorist come and I sling out my trusted Desert Eagle.
Final score? Headshot. Headshot. Headshot. 2 bodyshot. KIA. From fucking nowhere I get a 4 kill streak with a pistol. I have yet to beat that.

Yeah? Because i hope you knew that! I have responded to a post saying: It could happen. We are talking about video games, it may be cool to see that in real life... but the point of a game is to entertain. It's not entertaining if it happen in game. So why counter with "it happen"?dathwampeer said:
And, i still asked you what the point. If you go back, you'll see I wrote 2 distinct questions that need answering.
I beat Lavos with just Crono on my first playthrough...only not actually.
My real moment was when I beat Monster X in Cave Story yesterday. I've been failing at that fight since mid-August and I only had about 4 health. I had pretty much accepted the battle as an impossibility, but when I finally did it...I was soooooo happy.

Saints row 2. I'd layed down a satchel charge whilst doing a samedi hood back (they attacked me), and a samedi car comes screaming over this charge, I set it off, car flies through the air, and takes out like 8 samedi, including the 3 liutenants I was supposed to be taking out
I don't think there's any possible way I could set it up to happen again though.

Going an entire half in ESPN College Hoops 2K5 without allowing a point. I played 15 minute halves...and as the second half went by and I realized my opponent was still stuck on 18 points (it was 54-18 at the half, the game ended something like 111-18), it was kind of like in baseball having a no-hitter going.
When the final buzzer went off, I was like "holy shit. A whole 15 minutes without allowing a point. Nice." East Tennessee State vs. Wofford, incidentally.

Last night, playing hillbilly golf (I don't remember the technical name for it) I missed the horizontal bars and wrapped the string around the middle of a tiki torch pole behind it.
That's your opinion. Many people want game like UFC to be as realistic as possible.Akalistos said:
In BFBC: 2, I plastered a quad bike with C4, then launched it into the enemy territory, killing about 3 people. I honestly didn't think it would work, but it did.
best ever WTF moment i had was on BF:BC2,
we were attack on port valdez and the defenders get an apache, our anti-air tank had been destroyed and we had a T-90. i decided to get into the T-90, the apache pilot was good and i seen him sweep round so he could fly over and bomb me. i had no option but to fire the cannon, i got a perfect hit on the apache took it down and got mega points. everyone on my team was like "OMG, how the fuck did you do that, that was awesome"
