Dumbest Things you've done in Video Games -- redone

Sophia Esteed · 05/09/08, 11:29 PM

The old one went missing goshdurnit

Ooookay....

Final Fantasy III (DS)

Tried to cross the bottomless bog with a Chocobo. And I DID NOT have the Levigrass shoes you needed to cross safely. Nevertheless, GAME OVER.

I was mortified ;_;

In the game Aztec I needed a ladder to pass a certain point... I searched for hours and hours and hours and evetually gave up. I'd travelled the whole gameworld to find it but no luck. Half a year later I replayed it....the ladder stood against a house 5 meters from the point I needed it for.

I spent four hours trying to align my jumps on a stupid Tomb Raider level, trying to grab ledges and ropes.

Recently though, it's been jumping off the Empire State Building for lulz in GTA IV.
I also spent almost half an hour in Zack and Wiki trying to figure out a puzzle when the answer was right in front of me. -.-

In Sonic 3

I forgot what they was called but I thought you had too jump on them too get them too go down.

Well it turns out jumping up and down on them isn't how works.. I died like 2 with time running out.. Then when I came back later I got it too work.

I did a lot stupid in MMOs but everyone has, lol.

lol the spinning platforms in Carnival zone, get the bubble shield and with good jump & bounce timing the platforms will be your best friends.

My dumbass moments:
Playing FF12 for 3 hours and then forgetting to save ;_;
Doing desert time trails in Jak 3, not by using the car, rather using infinite Light Jak time slowing. 1 mission takes 20 minutes to finish lol

wiill add more later...

I was leveling up in FFVII, and I gained 10 levels, then started playing again. When mom said I got a package, I opened it up, and it was Bleach the complete first season. I pulled the plug to the ps2, and plugged in my dvd player to watch it immediately, and the next day i realized what i did.

In Mario Kart Double Dash, i just waited for my friends to come so that i can shoot them with items.
In Super Mario Sunshine, me and my friend bet, who jumped on most citizens(the pudding looking things) without touching the ground, using water is allowed.
same thing in galaxy but with toads in the place with the ship.

In World of Warcraft an Epic Bind on Equip helm dropped it was worth ~1000g I accidentally equipped it because in that same run a lesser value blue helm dropped that looked exactly the same. Needless to say I lost ~1000g because the Epic Leather was for Druids. :(

P.S. I'm not a Druid.

Did almost the same things on Mario Kart: Super Circuit, only with NPC players on 150cc.

I think I fired off more than 100 red shells that day.

The World Ends with You
Kept guessing on the Reaper Review about Bach and Air on G String stuff.

Twilight Princess
I was doing the bug collecting stuff and I saw this bug on a ledge higher than mine. I clawshot onto the little bar things and tried to jump onto a ledge I thought had an opening on it, but fell off everytime...and then I found out there was a bar thinigie on the wall the ledge.

Chrono Cross
I acidentally saved a new game over one file my older sis and I had gotten pretty far on.

lol! The barrel in the carnival night zone? I did that too xD

While not technically in a video game, it is relevant.

I always forget to back up save files on my computer before I reformat it. Hours of work in RPGs, gone. It's quite frustrating.

Roxas9001 · 05/11/08, 06:54 PM

On FFVIII

I was playing as Laguna during the second dream thingy & I would down a letter but I was pressing up at the same time & couldnt get down then after alot of useless battle, I finally went down the letter & pressed down.

On RE4

I was fighting the blind guy witthe claws & when he did that charge attack I stood there & got impaled.

On Syphon Filter 1

I saw a grenade on the gorund & said "whats dat?" rolled close to it then BOOM.

Yes that's the one..

Glad I wasn't the only one who got stuck on that part, lol.

Using my Masterball on a Ratatta in Pokemon Yellow was pretty bad.
