That scene from Metal Gear Solid 2. I think I was literally saying WTF(both the acronym and the words at various points) in the... umm... that.
Which one? there were literally about 80 "that scene" moments in that game, unless you count the Epic multi-part overlong wordy boring convoluted nonsensical bullshit cinematic saga they call an ending as a single scene. In which case there are only about 20.
I assume he means
naked Raiden.
That'd be the one. That, and the humorously glitching codec are the only things that threw me in that game.

Burning my town and house down twice in Minecraft :(

LONG LIVE TREE TOWN
Building your house out of wood I can understand... but building it out of wood AGAIN after the first one burnt down? If you wanted to tempt fate, I can't really think of many better ways to do it :L

I built my immediate shelter into a little cave, and erected a small wooden door to prevent the worst of Hell's minions battering their way in (somehow). Shortly thereafter, a Creeper found its way to my little maison de grotte and stood outside of my door, hopping up and down like a toodler on a sugar rush. I made the mistake of moving too close to my door in an attempt to smite the little green bugger, but surely enough his fuse lit, and - more than aware of the Creeper's well-earned reputation for fucking everybody's shit right up - I retreated far into my cave.
BANG.
I returned, expecting the worst, but much to my surprise the Creeper's legendary 4x4x4 explosion... had destroyed my door, a single block beneath where it had stood, and nothing else.
What the hell?

Fallout 3, near deathclaw sanctuary, a deathclaw flies up over 8000 feet in the air, and never came back
Yeah that glitch always simultaneously struck me dumb and disappointed me because I was usually lining up the bastard in my sights when it shot outta there.
i was watching my friend play, and he was slaughtering Big Town, and a rad scorpion flew from behind him, along with a death claw and Super Mutant, all dead, we were like, What the Fuck?

I assume he means
naked Raiden.
And I assume he means
"BTW Raiden, this whole thing is a gigantic hoax to make you into a second Solid Snake and btw we're all AI's coming from within the core of the giant Metal Gear carrier you're inside of just now and your girlfriend is pregnant but she's kinda not real and *skullface* and oh my christ what's happened to your radar BUT WAIT we're actually the collective consiousness of some network that evolved and patriots and I NEED A TUNING FORK FISSION MAILED AAARRGHJIEBYSOFGEWWWW"

We can place bets. I like to think It's my suggestion because it's a series of plot twists that signal the end of reason and logic itself.
Nah... Hideo Kojima making plots convoluted is like water making things wet. I can almost always count on him for a nice break from reality. Although I guess there was a bit of a WTF when the game switched to Raiden in the first place.

OP: Assassin's Creed, the leap of faith...I mean sure from a height of ten feet maybe you don't break your neck, but most of those buildings were a good fifty seventy feet up, you'd totally die jumping into a cart of hay...I still loved that freaking game though.
AC2has bigger buildings. Seriously i nearly get motion sickness just watching him jump.
Haha yeah, totally forgot about AC2. I think I blocked it from memory since I got bored of climbing most of them.

Probably EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF DEAD SPACE!!!!

Seriously, you walk around and BAM some...thing bursts out of an airvent and starts rushing towards you going "BLARRBBIIGGJIBBIJABJAB!!!" so you shoot its legs off, it starts dragging itself towards you, you shoot its head off, it gets more pissed off and comes quicker, so you empty the rest of the Plasma Cutter mag into its face and all the while your just screaming "WTF WTF WTF!"

Now, what if the Necromorphs were replaced by entirely human enemies?
If something has one arm intact and is dragging themself towards you trying to tear you apart with their one remaining bare hand while screaming its head off, but it was human, then that would probably more damn freaky than the slimey space zombie people...

...so yeah Dead Space is downright insane.
Yes yes it is...also gave me nightmares about zombies who'd come after me even even though they had no arms, legs, or heads...

This is PROBABLY no excuse... but Altair's line may have powers because they're descended from a human-[godlikepeople] hybrid. I don't remember where I heard this or if its bunk, but wikipedia CANT be wrong!! So thats where eagle vision(and extraordinary strength?) comes from. Maybe...

Well it better be because of that, if he is just this regular guy with weird eyes then really WTF. Wikipedia CAN NOT FAIL! haha, well I guess it would make sense, since the whole you know ending scene of AC2, but during AC how were we supposed to know? haha

Apparently it's mentioned in the black edition manual, or so says the AC Wiki.

Playing Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, I went to talk to a girl in the village, all of a sudden Naruto was shaking like an ADD person who just drank 60 cans of buzz cola and topped it off with a ton of pixy sticks.

L4D2 Chargers.

Death charges from roof tops, into water, or down elevator shafts. It happened to me yesterday actually. I was playing as a charger, and had the perfect set up. No lag was to be found that day and it was glorious. I charge Francis, I hit him, but he doesn't go over with me. The charger, literally, pushes Francis directly to the right, instead of forward to his death. He rolled right off me even though I was directly in front of him, as if I were slippery. Must be all the infected goo.*raspberry* That was one of my more recent w.t.f moments.

Wait...did comander shepard just..HEAD BUTT A KROGAN???
Yes... because he is just that badass.
even funneir if its a she and she's not wearing a helmet...Shepard must have a skull of steel
Considering he was rebuilt with a few cybernetic implants here and there, it's possible he had to have a steel plate stuck in his bonce.

I loved that bit myself even though, as you say, it would be akin to nutting a brick wall with lumps of frozen Toblerone glued to it...

There's a bit in Far Cry 2 where a guy is actually INSIDE a rock, with his limbs poking out. He can shoot at you still, but you cant always hit him, what with him being 'one' with an unshootable thing.

I also find it funny when the AI gets stuck in a corner and just faces a wall for a bit. You are wandering around, making loads of noise because you think everyone is dead, and you suddenly go "whoa! where did you come from?" as he continues to face the wall. Then you shoot him and laugh. Maniacally.

:D

The most recent moment for me was yesterday. I was replaying Grand theft Auto IV, went out on my firs date with Kiki. I had not dated her in my original play through. As I got out of the taxi I had taken to drop her home, a bloody limo comes along from nowhere, squashes Niko against the side of the taxi and sends him careening to the ground with a smear of blood. I seriously said WTF.

That's why you dont use silencers on sniper rifles.
Silencers in games usually makes me say WTF. Because the guns are actually silent with the silencer, which makes no sense. Just because there's a silencer attached to the end of a barrel doesn't mean that the gun is somehow 100% efficient at converting potential to kinetic energy for the bullet.
Yeah, especially with a weapon that fires supersonic rounds. Both films and games have spread this idea that silencers will magically make a weapon silent, which is a little far from the truth.
