MINOR SPOILER (Fallout 3)

Well i just tried to blow up Liberty Prime (outside Project Purity) with an Experimental MIRV and Gatling Laser and guess what? I did not succeed. Then i got a little closer in order to proceed with the quest and i got blown into pieces by a single high-beam laser/plasma ray from the giant "tin can"...

I thought to myself: "This has to be dumbest things i have done lately..."

I know a few people have done this but I was pretty pissed when I shot my horse in the head in RDR. I was a good 12 hours into the game and still had the Kentucky Saddler (i think its called). I was following a rabbit along the plain and then bam, down goes my faithful companion.

I was playing firefight in ODST and I had the gravity hammer, it was between rounds and I was randomly whacking the ground with it and my teammate walks by and I totally whack in the face with it and he dies... funniest thing ever.

I don't think I have done something so idiotic in a game that it has stuck with me, or hilariously awesome for that matter.

I have done that before, but it was just kind of a "I wonder what would happen if I did this" type of thing

Sometimes not being able to take down and kill opponents in Gears of War 2 from behind (when they have no clue I'm right behind them). I swear, I kept shooting at them but to no avail.. It's like they have body armor or somethin'......

I stuck a teamate in CODMW2, and he ran into a cave and died, but also killed an enemy. To my surprise, I found out this was an achievment that I earned.

What ever the hell you call it. Something popped up on screen and said that I did it, probably got an emblem or something for it within the game I guess. I really don't pay any attention to the online acheivments, or trophies or whatever they are called.

I think he meant achievement as in an online challenge. Don't be so critical, he just misspoke.

I think he meant he got a Semtex grenade and stuck it onto his teammate and lucky the grenade killed an enemy THUS awarding him the TITLE:

Friends with Benefits: Challenge: "The Resourceful"- Kill an enemy by sticking semtex to an ally.

You're right, I overreacted. It's no excuse to be a jerk, but a lot of dumb kids at my school compulsively lie about their supposed endeavors. It gets annoying hearing kids say "Dude I shut down Yahoo's computer", or "Dude I put a Mac processor in my PS2 last night!". Sorry Rapid Turtle

In COD WAW Zombies I threw a monkey bomb into the furnace cause a team mate said to do it, and all it does is scream... It was one of the dumbest things I've done.

In Dead Rising 1 - I got the zombie genocider achievement, I was so excited to use it, I started a new campaign to use it... Yet I did not finish the last 72 hours, so I did not unlock it... AFTER SPENDING 5 hours in a row doing so :'(. But that is just one of the many...
