[Akura]

Jumped out of the black market transport. I intended to grapple-hook the ground, only I accidentally held the key down, causing me to try and tether the ground to itself. Couldn't get my parachute out.

Just Cause 2. It's the game's fault, for making it conceivable that you can survive a drop from a helicopter by grappling the ground and pulling yourself to it even faster.

My fleets were getting roflstomped by the Shakturi. And while I think that's supposed to happen in the story, what really annoyed me was the fact that my ships simply parked with the Shakturi just outside their weapons range, but still within the Shakturi's range. Or, the fact that my fleet attacking one of the Shakturi's conquered worlds refused to defend themselves as the Shakturi ships shot them out of the sky, losing the space control advantage that really didn't help anyway.

Distant Worlds

I got really bored, so I debugged in multiple V12 engines and an armored car and took a drive through a city at over 1000 miles per hour.

Cataclysm: DDA on a messing-with-debug save to see how viable a knight would be under Cataclysm mechanics.

I think that there's a limit of 250MPH before the game stops letting you go faster. Unless they removed that recently.

Going through the tutorial.

"Use left shift to dodge to cover"
*Uses left shift*
"Why is my guy standing? I just- GOD DAMN IT HELICOPTER"

*Load last checkpoint*
"Left shift, that's what it says."
*Uses left shift*
"STOP STANDING UP YOU ASSHOLE"

*Load last checkpoint*
"It says right there, that's how you dodge over to the next bit of cover, it works on this one, but why not on this one?"
*Tries again*
"...Y U NO STAY IN COVER?"

*Load last checkpoint*

I went through this about 10 times before it would actually friggin' work.
Never had that problem anywhere else in the game, just that spot in the tutorial.

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified.
This game is fun, but god dang the controls get so buggy at times.

[Gulddom]

Hit a wall, over and over and over, for roughly five minutes. Finally managed to survive a whole twelve seconds! I guess I don't have the reflexes for the Hardester level of Super Hexagon

[SeriousConcentrate]

In an attempt to save souls on my third run through, I attacked Licia, thinking 'I'll just kill her quick for her souls and save the 2000 I'd spend on her later, too.' Turns out that she's ridiculously OP... so I'm just gonna delete that file since that screws me out of ever going to the mines and by extension ever fighting Old Iron King, aka my favorite boss to grind...

Dark Souls 2.

[IronTomato]

Lost a ton of points after 3 failed attempts to snatch and grab a Commander from an Ethereal base. I had made several mistakes by the time that this happened, as well as simply not being able to handle the huge number of aliens. Funding Council was not amused, and terminated XCOM. The knowledge gained through my project was lost, and I failed to save the Earth.

OpenXCOM

[PDF urist master]

I got murdered by a boar in magicite. I think it's because I played as the dwelf, a horrific hybrid of dwarf and elf with little hp at the start.

[Mapleguy555]

My command nodes were flooded by an all-consuming fluid. Poor Skars.

Creeper World 3

[flabort]

I was in second place with 1 house each for three properties. My dad was ahead of me, with 6 properties with 4 houses each. There were four of us... I went bankrupt second, a turn after my mom and three turns before my brother. Nobody landed on any of my properties ever after I bought those houses. And I just kept landing on tax after tax, community chest after community chest (never the ones earning you cash), Dad's property after dad's property.

Fastest game of Monopoly ever.

Skars is in orbit above. He wasn't in those command nodes. Only in CW1 and CW2 were the protagonists in the flying cities.

Besides, when the command nodes get badly damaged they just take off and fly away.

That's the full game and not the demo right?

Still, Skars just lost a world. So poor him and his reality-ending incompetence.

Give it up for the person who flips perspective and controls! I... I died 9 times. Something in that range.

Touhou, Double dealing character. Stage 5 practice.

[jaxy15]

I was a traitor assistant who had to kill an atmospheric technician. While I was thinking of a good plan, another traitor planted a power sink to drain the power, so I grabbed a crowbar, pried the atmospherics doors open and used an energy crossbow + C4 to kill the atmos tech. Unfortunately, he managed to call for help and the AI noticed me. Security busted me, but for whatever reason they decided to let me free as the escape shuttle was coming. I try to hide in one of the shuttle's lockers, but at the last minute before the round ends, the clown guts me with an energy sword.

From what I've seen for most of her flip-in-the-middle-of-attack shenanigans you must keep pressing the same button.
