so Everyone who's ever a gamer has those, whenever it be varying glitches or just something a NPC did or said.

Here's mine:

1. Oblivion: I was walking along minding my business when this npc catches my attention by saying: "psst! over here... follow me. I need to ask you something where nobody else can hear us."
So I follow her, thinking that maybe she has a quest for me to do. once we're alone, she then asks me something I did not expect at all.
bluntly put, she basically asked me if I knew wherever necrophilia was legal or not in the country of chiroqil as opposed to morrowind, and if she had to pay fines or worse if she got caught.
my initial response to that was "WTF?! EWWWWWW!!" I just wanted to get away from her fast, but I had to click my way though bothersome dialogue. so I told her that it was illegal, and if caught she had the choice of going to jail or pay a 500 gold fine. She was like "oh okay. I just needed to know. thanks."
and then I ran the fuck away from her.

And then when I was chatting up other npcs in town, a couple of them brought up the fact that a certain woman seemed to have summoned her dead husband with necromancy because she missed him so much. needless to say I felt like barfing when I pictured her little reunion with her husband... presumably it was the same one who asked me that disgusting question.

2. I posted this already in the rants and raves thread...
I'm laughing SOOO hardcore right now because I had the biggest WTF moment in an video game.

why? Because I was playing oblivion and I had those cultists pop out and attack me in the middle of town. This guard came by and helped me...

but two other guards thought that this guard was committing an crime... so they took out their bow and arrow... AND STARTED SHOOTING HIM IN THE CROTCH. seriously, when the guard finally died his whole crotch area looked like a pincushion, while the rest of him was arrow-free.

at this moment, I'm thinking maybe they just used the excuse of mistaking him for an criminal just to cause a really painful death to somebody they hated. seriously, that poor guard had two dozen arrows mangling his gentila. he seriously had to be the most hated guard in the town. :P

otherwise, it's just bizarre.

edit: also, when I saw what they were doing to him I actually tried to help him out by casting a protective spell on him, healing him and using a calm spell on the two attacking guards.

but alas, nothing worked.... they just kept at it until he was dead. Afterward I cast an resurrection spell on him but after I took all the arrows out of his crotch.

can't say I didn't try to help him out. :P

3.This one is from red red redemption. ran into the infamous cougar man as seen in somebody's video:

That cougar turned npc man looked like a possessed guy..... and scared the crap out of me... never thought I would actually run into him.

so any of you have unusual moments in gaming?

Moved to the video games forum. :]

A ridiculously stupid Oblivion moment that I experienced was when I was investigating grave robbery in the capital. Apparently someone was robbing graves and selling the clothes and various stuff he found on the corpses to one of the shopkeep for a low low price. When I reached the culmination of my mission, I had to walk into a crypt and catch the grave robber in the act. However he knew that I was chasing him so he set up a trap down there, where he and a friend of his were waiting for me. The crypt locked behind me, barring my escape and he was nice enough to inform me that he intended to dump my body in one of the coffins. His friend was a heavily equipped, competent fighter, while he himself was equipped with a powerful sword that drained my strength and willpower (and subsequently my stamina) something fierce.

This was a ridiculously difficult battle and I had no idea how on earth I was supposed to be able to win it. The two guys kept ganging up on me and relentlessly beat the living shit out of me, as I quickly became too tired to do anything about it. Desperate to find a way to gain an edge in this fight, I loaded and tried getting the drop on them first.

So I manage to sneak down the crypt and strike at the grave robber who reacts utterly insulted by my impudence and started to attack me, while his friend was content at staring at us. While the fact that his ally wasn't coming to aid him was surprising enough, what startled me more was when a random guard showed up from nowhere and charged me for attacking a defenseless civilian. This teleports me to the outside after spending a night in the prison and the crypt remains locked and thus finishing the mission becomes impossible. I had to reload yet again and fight on their terms, since the guards are nice enough to leave them alone, when they brutally lay down a world of hurt on me.

I eventually managed to find a way to beat them when I was pointed out that another enchanted sword was hidden behind one of the coffins which I quickly equipped before the fight.

Well has many too many to remember them all. but i remember one thing clearly.
In Fallout 3. I did have Fawkes with me and we were going to outcast brotherhood and showed up to their fort.. and suddenly Fawkes ran away from me and kept to running. he didn't show up again. I wonder if my poor character did have a bad breath or something? xD

These are all pretty crazy - seems like most other people experiences moments like these a lot more often than I do. But I do have one.

I'm a huge fan of the game, Team Fortress 2. It's great for some good, solid FPS action. One of my favorite things to do is to play the matches Rambo-style by picking either the Soldier class or the Pyro. In the case I'm about to describe, I was playing the Soldier whose primary weapon is a rocket launcher that does splash damage on impact.

Anyway, we were pushing the last map of Dustbowl (obviously I was on Blu), and we just needed the extra boost to get us to the last control point. The medic on me had his charge ready (which would render both he and I invulnerable for a few seconds), so I ran forward into the fray.

The first thing I attempted was to rocket jump into the pack of Red defenders - an act of shooting a rocket at your character's feet propelling him into the air while causing minor damage, an act better known as "Rocket Jumping" - but I failed. Three times. The medic's charge was running out by this point, so frustratedly I spammed rockets at the enemy team, but only knocked out one guy. I was surprised to unlock a few achievements during this, and even more surprised that they involved killing more than one enemy.

Looking back in the console, I discovered that while I was attempting my rocket jump earlier, I managed to knock off two cloaked spies moving in to backstab me and the medic healing me. The best part is, the medic behind me probably mistook it for some lucky bit of deduction going on!

I don't often get memorable 'bugs' like this in games (I'm sure I get them, I just don't remember). But I got one tonight!

I was playing Dragon Age Origins (Awakenings) and there is a portion where the sub-boss fights you, and after you defeat him there is a dialogue event where the main boss berates him and escapes. So, I am fighting the sub-boss, but my 'killing' blow is a beheading move- so then he dialogue event starts and the sub-boss has no head while he's arguing with the main boss and she's chewing him out for being incompetent. I had to laugh because it really seemed as though she had a point.

Ha! My favourite Dragon Age glitch was when - on a second playthrough - I persuaded Alistair to sleep with Morrigan so that I could slay the final dragon myself and live to tell the tale. This meant that Alistair also survived the final battle but, during the end-of-game festivities, Alistair was standing next to Anora while she lamented his death and praised his great sacrifice!

Fallout 3 also has many hilarious game software happenings. I think that and Oblivion's are because of the AI engine they use, the more you let them run around thinking for themselves, the more trouble they get into. FO3's physics engine also causes a lot of unintentionally funny moments, like deathclaws flying straight up into the sky.

In Mass Effect 2 you can get enemies 'caught' in the environment now and then, and the entire time they think they are 'taking damage' so they cycle through their wounded yells/screams/shouts/noises until you get around to killing them. It's quite funny and there's youtube videos for some of them.

Metal Gear Solid 2. Just Metal Gear Solid 2. Especially near the end.

Let me tell you of a story. A story of fear, strength and extreme glitches. This is the tale of THE FLOATING MEDIC.

Me and my friends were playing this really weird map in Team Fortress 2. Basically, you had the skin of one character, the main weapon of another, the secondary of another, and the melee weapon of another. The whole game had me with two of my friends and three other guys on it. Because there were so few people, we unanimously decided to do melee battle only.

This is where it gets freaky, because there was one guy who was pretty darn good with the demoman's Eyelander. For those who don't play, the Eyelander is a melee sword that beheads people. And the more decapitations, the faster the player gets and the more hitpoints they get. But because he had the skin of a medic whose melee isn't the Eyelander (and therefore, didn't have the animation for it), he just...floated there all menacing like. All of us were trapped in our spawn point because we were too scared to go outside. It was honestly terrifying because he'd follow you if you managed to get out and float after you with his invisible sword. It was like he would explode your head with his mind.

Freequrt, I would be freaked out by that too.

Majin and the forsaked kingdom. (spoiler!!)
The Final boss did confused me because in second part in the the battle. It did climb out from the portal. I couldn't stop to look at it's chest because of one bizar reason: It did have serveral breasts!! I just wondered what the creators were thinking of when they made this final boss. just plain creepy.

Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness. So my farmer is happily married to The Witch Princess and with child. All of the other bachelorettes hearts are maxed out with him but since he's married they shouldn't be flirting with him... O_O

Oh... and this...
Harvest Moon Animal Parade Glitches
Not really glitches... Just some funny moments and faulty localization... :)
