WTF moments in gaming

[Larnx]

Mass Effect - whilst battling the Matriarch, Shepard decides to become Mr. fantastic and start stretching out of shape and then freezes and becomes nigh invicible. It also turns out you can't move and that the Matriarch and her commandos have shit accuracy. It was a serious WTF moment for me as I thought I would have to reset my xbox 360 and I had forgotten when I had last saved.

Also in Fallout 3 I met a guy I personally call Mr. flying-brain-with-eyes-and-bright-white-teeth-who-is-lootable-but-has-no-loot.

Oh and a terminator from terminator salvation having the ability to punch kill me from 300 ft away.

And how there is no stealth gameplay in farcry 2 .

Edit: I just saw someone mention SW:TFU and I had to say another WTF moment was when the game failed on me and decided to stop tracking force points.

WAIT!!
There are more people who had this shit with Shepard stretching out and all?!

Hahah me too! I got knocked over on a stairwell as my shepard liquified himself down the stairs. My brother and I laughed for a good 10min watchin it happen

Whoa, never thought I'd see the day...My Shepard almost managed to reach the other side of the room!

I didn't think this happened to other people also! He got hit by the Matriarch's psy blast and started stretching then didn't he? or did something different happen to your shepard to start it off?

*SPOLIER ALERT!*

Prince of Persia - the ending. WTF?!

Left 4 Dead 2 - wondering where Bill is in the DLC. Finding out Bill... is dead. WTF?!

Bioshock - Altas is Fontain? WTF?!

Resident Evil 4 - Ada's alive? WTF?!

Resident Evil 5 - Zombies with guns? And a cover system? Is this Gears of War? WTF?!

Wait...did comander shepard just..HEAD BUTT A KROGAN???

Yes... because he is just that badass.

And then he seduced their women while putting down a rebellion, which took place during the geth invasion he stopped.

When asked for a comment on the matter, he responded, "That was one of my slower mornings."

Said Shepard was in fact mostly Paragon.

Renegade Shepard on the other hand destroyed a city, seduced the men as well, used the corpses of the geth to beat to death the rebellion, and then started a barroom brawl because they were out of towels in the bathroom and he figured punching people would disguise him wiping his hands on them. He commented "Yeah, that morning was my slowest ever."

I think for me, my biggest WTF moment came at the plot twist in Jak 3.

 

[The Harkinator]

The single most hilarious moment of my Fallout 3 experience - After seeing a Deathclaw fly and let it decide a lifetime of flight was much better than clawing my eyes out wasn't worthwhile anymore (works for me) I was hunting Yao Guai with mines and a snipe rifle, picked off one of the buggers with a couple of lucky sniper shots then panicked as the other one decided to show me exactly what it thought of my sniping and fired the other three shots at the mines (just as it was leaping over it at me). The Yao Guai was fired into the air (I checked on VATS and it was still alive) then came down 30 seconds later, all its limbs came off on impact.

That was both WTF and funny, then my game crashed.

When I unknowing did my first harmonic combo in Jade Empire. Also the 2 twists in JE and KotOR.

So today I was replaying Borderlands after letting it sit for a few months and noticed something pretty ridiculous. When you kill any enemy they tend to groan as they fall to the ground. Totally legit. However, if you headshot them and their head explodes they still tend to groan. How the hell does something without a head groan?

What things in games have you noticed that makes absolutely no sense?

Carolina Hurricanes fan! HSST! I joke...

I'm gonna admit I'm actually kinda dense when it cocmes to noticing there things.

 

[Quaxar]

Saints Row 2's police AI. It doesn't matter to them what you drive, they always assume cars can go there too... so if I take a helicopter and hover just a bit out away from the coast they'll still charge you with all they have, plunge into the water and sink their car.
But it's funny so I forgive it.

I have another one. FEAR. The whole game is a WTF moment.

 

[Anti Nudist Cupcake]

Today I was playing gta 4 and got to a part where I had to protect mob boss #9846 during a deal with another group of gangsters (the boss says I can only shoot if someone else attacks them). During the deal a guy crept up behind him and shot him, he died.
I re-did the mission up to that point again and waited for him to pop out again, when he eventually popped out again with his gun aiming at the mob boss's head I instantly shot him in the face. I then got a mission failed dialog because I apparently ruined the deal by shooting for "no good reason".
So, having a guy trying to kill the other guy i'm supposed to be body guarding isn't a good enough reason to kill him, apparently.

Guard: who's footprints are these?
Me: OH CMON There is no way a Playstation ONE NPC IS THIS FUCKING SMART!!!

Colonel: Snake You can call Meryl on her Codec by checking the back of the CD Case....

Me:.....WTF!?!? Did my game just turn off?

Me: .....FUUUUUUUUU!!!

 

[Josh Kurber]

All I can say is...

Drakengard! *Shakes fist*

Bahahha!! You win! xD Drakengard was such a fucked up game, and it got worse near the last two endings.

I keep meaning to play that game. I have it installed and everything, but I keep loading Minecraft instead...

Installed? O_e Drakengard is a PS2 game. An old one. Do you mean, like, on an emulator or something?

Spoiler: Probably this?

I remember this. I was so freaked out by by the colonel that I literally wanted to stop the game. Then the game told me the colonel was actually dead and it was a computer program and I was cool. Then I saw the colonel in MGS4 and it was WTF moment all over again.

Or stand at the shore of a cliff by the ocean and they drive straight into the ocean allowing you to pick them off as they swim to "Safety".

 

[CleverNickname]

GTA San Andreas, I just finished a mission somewhere in Los Santos and decided to go save at that rapper's mansion in Vinewood (because my PC crashed all the time). I drive up the hill, want to walk up the little side-serpentine and hear that plane that always flies over the area.

I take 2 more steps and the damn thing crashes right into me, upside down, and explodes. WTF!?

Whatever dude, I still remember having a badass cop drive a fucking car into my helicopter.
Didn't kill me but I was just dumbstruck.

Whenever I got hit by her blast and slid down the stairs. But that attack always was buggy as hell.
