When I was young and stupid, I obtained a copy of Pokemon, Red Version. After a bit of time playing the game, I caught a Diglett. I checked my Pokemon Encyclopedia, bought at a school Scholastic book fair, and found that it had an evolved form, consisting of what looked like three Digletts. So, I promptly went out and caught two more Digletts, and kept all three in my party, constantly leveling them all up, waiting for the day when they would all merge. Eventually, one evolved into a Dugtrio by itself, and I felt like a chump.

So, how about you? What's the silliest/stupidest thing that you've ever done in a game?

A few things. Boredom is the fertilizer of silliness.

I'll likely add to this list as we go along, for now:

+In Arkham Asylum I literally blindfolded myself (pulled a hat over my eyes, technically) and tried a fight by randomly mashing X and Y on mute.

+ In KOTOR II I totally fucked my alignment trying to pick the options in conversation to make everyone like me so I could learn their stories. Then, on my second playthrough, being my typical self, I discovered they tell you their stories even if they all hate your guts. (HK-47 wanted to have my babies, though).

+ Organized my inventory in RE4's mercenaries EVERY time I picked up a new item. More than once. I'm not crazy. Srsly.

deleted my lvl 60 shepard in ME1 for save room then found out I could import a ME1 character to ME2.

Is it silly/stupid that I cried for hours when Aerith died in FF7 and I couldn't continue the game because "It wasn't the same anymore"? (I was a kid)

EDIT: Something I did in a game: In WoW, my friend on his warlock, and I were watching trade chat for people needing summons to dalaran. We would invite them to our group and warlock summon them to dalaran, BUT we'd have the portal right on the edge of the sewer pipe so if they took a step in the wrong direction as they appeared they would plummet to their death. Many people didn't fall for it, but it was hilarious laughing at those who fell

I tried going as high as I possibly could in Just Cause 2 in a helicopter, then jumping out and trying to skydive in-between the tiny crack that separates one side of a bridge from another.
It actually almost worked...

I'll admit, this one made me laugh pretty hard. Maybe just because of that last line.

For me, I think it was when I was playing Halo 3 at a friends the other day, I threw a sticky grenade and then went into one of those Gravity Lift things. So I kinda...stuck myself. Laughs were had, but boy did I feel stupid.

Back when Halo 1 first came out on the PC me and my mates would spend HOURS just messing around in Blood Gulch, making jumps, putting things in strange places etc. etc. It was completely random and stupid, but we had so much fun.

Fast forward to last night, we're all 20-21 and one of us has just bought Halo Reach on the 360. Slayer+Mates+Beer = Awesome! So we're having fun, I'm losing because I'm not a console gamer but what the hell! Then we discover forge mode...and that everyone can be playing or developing at once. It was like a dream come true, Bungie had put what we spent the most time doing in Halo 1 into their final Halo game. The last thing I remember before driving home exhausted in the early hours of the morning was a huge wall with a single small hole in it, that we had to try and jump through with a warthog over a ramp and gravity boosters.

Seriously, go get Halo Reach if only so you can get drunk and kill each other with giant spinning pieces of scenery.

Walking off ledges in Half Life 2, Mirror's Edge and Left 4 Dead.
That and the times I accidentally blew myself up with the Equalizer taunt in Team Fortress 2.

What ended up happening was he fell over drunkenly as the train was about to hit him and it glitched me into the top of the train. So as revenge, i stumbled inside the passanger car and proceeded to beat the snot out of every living thing within 3 miles. ((which included me getting off the train and punching a pack of wolves until i was eventually overwhelmed.))

Good times. good times.
Oh, or trying to catch my throwing knifes in MW2. That was fun for a while.
Managed to do it once. Dont think my guy can ever repeat it though.

Fallout 3

When I decided it would be an excellent idea to strip naked, equip a Fisto!, set the difficulty to Very Hard...and single handedly wipe the Brotherhood of Steel off the face of the Earth.

Cost me like 28 Stimpaks, it did.

the silliest thing i've done in a game, and yes, this does count as a game, was this: I was a Halfling Scout in D&D 3.5, in a dwarven town. I decided, I wanted to read a book. So, I went and talked to the librarian, who said i needed a pass, blah blah blah. Needless to say, i go on this wild goose chase through the town, get the pass... and accidentally insult the king's advisors ale.

So, I get chuckled in jail. With another dwarf. Who proceedes to bend me over and make me his ***** >_< (The asshole gave me a disease too!)

Well, the day after, i get escorted out infront of the king, his advisor... and twenty dwarves, ten on each side of the red carpet, holding a tankard of ale. My punishment? I have to drink them all.

Passed out after 5 ale's, and got healed/cured by the head cleric... Who's also the guy who raped me in jail.

And all this to get a book from the library, that as it turns out... I can't read. I look back and laugh at how freakin stupid that whole encounter was :p

mafia II demo: i went into a gun store, bought every gun and every ammo i could, then shot the salesman and then hurried into a clothing store to change my looks to get the 200 cops off me.

another time, i went into the park outside my house, there was a shoe shiner. so i got a shoe shiner, paid the good lad, then punched him in the face and we got into a cool fight. then two cop cars drove through the grass and bushes as though they were hunting charles manson. so then i got in trouble, so i paid off the cop that was questioning me, he told me to scram before he changed his mind. so then after i paid him 300$, i shot him and jacked his car, then i got the hell out of there. i came back to kill the shoe shiner.

i don't have a plan.

Set my kitchens to keep producing fine meals and my dwarves cooked all the booze in the fortress so I just spent the last 15 minutes waiting for my farm plots to sprout some plants to distill.

I completely forgot that I could've just had some of my farmers go out and gather plants to distill.

I did that move in Prototype where you grab a guy in mid-air and slam him to the ground, which you can keep doing until the body flies out of your reach.
I did this for 5 minutes.

I'm also on a quest in Fallout 3 to find as many landmines as I can, set them all in a wide open area and then fire the MIRV at them. My PC will never forgive me for this.
