Actually, I tried to chuck it into the trash from a distance. It bounced off the rim and didn't fall in. Then the nice police officer came at me with his baton and hit me a couple times. So uncalled for, man.

First playthrough: Shove it right up his nasty face, of course! :D
I mean, where could you legitimately throw a can at a security guard at that time, without being smacked?

I think when I first played (on the 360 in '07, '08 maybe) I fumbled it. -_-'

Straight to the temple. I then spent the next ten minutes out of his reach throwing everything I could pick up at him. I would probably have continued for a lot longer, but I was playing at a friend's house, and he threatened to revoke my gaming-privileges if I didn't move on... (You'll note that I did as I was told in the real world.)

I'm surprised to see so many people went for the "do what the nasty man says" option! It's almost a fifty-fifty split, after all.

Can anybody think of other games that allow for a choice of minor civil disobedience? I remember the crew on Voyager were never too happy when I procured a phaser and started doodling graffiti into the wall with it.

I put it in the trash but I feel I got him back when I was murdering all of his potential friends and family...

I bounced it off his face, then ran away. Then when he stopped chasing, I ran back with a bottle, and broke it on his face too. :p
I love being a dick in games... :')

My first time, I put it in the trash can. But that's because I was unaware that I could throw it at him.

Afterwards, in later playthroughs, I lobbed it at him again and again. Hell, I think I got some other stuff, like a phone, and threw at him some more.

Second time playing, picked it up, threw it at his face and, I shit you not, it somersaulted right into the trashcan.

Still got zapped, though.

I picked up the can, threw it directly at his head, then laughed at his unCANny defeat.

I threw it at him the first time. The second play-through I threw it away (because if memory serves it was two different achievements). Every play-through since I throw it at him.

I put it in the trash.

While it may sound lame, it was the lowest-effort method of getting around the guy. Besides, throwing it at him would be risk with no possible reward that could not be obtained through less risky means.

I'm really surprised no one's said this yet:


...which is probably exactly what I actually did, because I kept being a dumbass and mixing up the drop/throw keys for the first part of the game. Heh.

I was slightly scared of that evil, modulated voice. It really embodied the combine regime (the whole train station sequence was amazingly effective at painting a picture) and I wasn't about to take any chances.

I bounced it off his head into the trashcan. He seemed pissed about me throwing it in his face, but then okay that it went into the can. I don't know what category that falls into.
It was rather magical.
My friend told me of what happened when I threw it, so I knew I could be silly.

I picked it up, walked over to the bin, then pressed the throw key instead of the drop key by accident.

I couldn't understand what he said the first time ("Prck urp drt crrn!") so I just sat there staring like an idiot until he decided to beat the shit out of me.

Im pretty sure I threw it at him the first time. And was petrified when he beat me with that baton =(
Then all I could think was "Really? I caused all this did I? Fuck"

I wasn't paying attention to him at first, so I just tried to get past him. He hit me then walked away.
