Adventuring along, dodging spike traps, about to unlock the next shortcut. Manage an insane jump onto a snake and land right between two spike tiles. Easy. Then, lo and behold, RANDOMARROWTRAPTODAFAESH. God Dammit.

G-g-go- curse you Ridge Racer!

I was 1st, and my opponent was just right behind me. As I turned, he shunted me, and got propelled off-the-courseways. After that, I just kept being behind the idiot for a 1 second distance. And I failed the race yet again. D:

After making and losing 4 characters I managed to clear out a Megamart and was excited to have it's vast resources at my disposal......only to be ruined when some jackass starts shooting a shotgun just outside of the store and somehow attracts every creep in the game to come eat us.

Jumped between platforms while on fire. Forgot that somehow getting damaged (i.e. by fire) mid-jump makes you fall.

Special Weapons Blitzwave. Managed to take the whole thing out with an arty strike, although the real damage dealer was one of the Flammenwerfers going up, setting most of the entire wave on fire. Unfortunately, two Panzerfausts got off, one hit a trench on the flank, wounding the gunner there, and another hit dead center of my main mortar pit, gibbing my signaller, taking out the cam net, and hurting the hell out of everyone else. Next wave, more special weapons, and another direct Panzerfaust hit, wrecking everyone, while the survivors get ripped apart by German artillery.

V1 Blitzwave. Seriously.

Just riding my horse and taking in the view, rifle drawn to shoot any wolf that attempts to get close when I notice a fox scurrying across the road. I shoot it and as I go over to skin it, I hear the roar of a cougar.  My horse collapses beneath me and I quickly scramble to get up. Taking a few pot shots as it circled me. It began to flee but I finished it off before it got to far. I walk over to skin it, and as I finish I hear another cougar roar. I quickly do a 180, gun drawn and ready as I fire at it, only for it to side step then knock me off a cliff. Red Dead Redemption. -Edit- Was riding around the trail when once again my horse got cougard. The blasted thing ended up taking off after another guy that was riding down the path before I could get revenge for my horse. Deciding to use a lil bait on the road to get that sucker back, I waited in the bushes with my rifle drawn as I spotted it checking out the bait. I was preparing to take the shot when I heard a roar behind me as I got mauled to death.

Hate to be that guy But could you use formatting and whatnot? I had to search for the game name in that wall of text.

Now for my entry.
Playing as the Tycoons, just happily working my way up the food chain, starting to get my society to the top teirs of civilization. Unfortunatly I had forgotten that resources are finite, and my main island ran out of coal. While desparatly shipping coal from a secondary island in the hopes of getting it going long enough to get a hastily build Nuclear Power chain going, my eco balance dropped from 0 to a staggering -700. This triggered a tornado to come, and by chance it ripped right through the populated sectors of my island, completely trashing everything and leaving me in a spiral of bankruptcy.

Foolishly decided to attack bonus dungeon bosses. 3 fake players came out, and exploded me.

XCOM: Apocalypse.


Was doing a routine raid on the Cult of Sirius to get some loot to sell. Now, let me break this down for you. You know how the CoS starts using rocket launchers after the first couple of raids you do on them? You know how they can easily kill your dudes in one hit? You know dropped grenades can be detonated by nearby explosions?

Going through the mission, had most of my dudes bunched up in a firing line, when suddenly INCOMING ROCKET FFFUUUUUU--. First rocket kills one of my dudes, and of course i always outfit my dudes with AT LEAST 4 AP grenades and 4 stun grenades each, because screw with using Stun Grapples for anything other than a rear guard. A second rocket comes in and detonates all those dropped grenades, killing another couple of my dudes with the explosions and knocking the rest unconscious due to the stun grenades detonating. My remaining couple of dudes were surrounded on all sides, and suffice it to say things went fuck-shaped pretty quick.

Gotta love XCOM.

Dwarf adventurer, latest version of DF. Attacking a bandit camp, going up a hill. On top of the hill is a swordsman, who spots me and charges. I dodge, and fall off the hill, stunning myself.
I was immediately surrounded by half a dozen bandits, who proceeded to attack me viciously. I crippled one and heavily wounded a couple others before I died. Made me feel kinda cool.
