In college, I got hooked on Final Fantasy V using an SNES Emulator on my computer. I remember having double ear infections and a sinus infection and feeling like absolute shit so I called in sick to work (one of the very few times I did during my entire 4 years there) and I still sat at the computer and just played for hours. Then I got stuck on the final boss and still haven't finished the damn game.

Definitely when we decided to speed run the L4D campaigns. So hectic and hilarious. Ignoring the incap'd, running past the tank, just melee'ing your way to the safe house. I've not played L4D2 enough yet to be comfortable with the maps and not get lost, but we definitely need to start doing this.

I was the only one (probably to this day) in pso to know how to stop Dark Falz from casting Grants every round. It was annoying I was always like 'you! stop casting!' and the stupid healer would never listen. I also taught everybody how to walk through walls and 'attack' their buddys. And they all thought getting caught for duping was cool lol. Duping wasn't my thing, I'm just in it for the thrill :) Nothing beats an awesome bug exploit :)

Bugs are all well and fine but nothing compares with making a stunning rockumentary on marriage using a well known metallica song and REC (even if I am the only one who understands it) or being the ONLY one to make a chobits video all about the little bunny characters (no matter how badly edited :| it's an artistic thing) or setting an inside joke on a popular amv contest that takes place in september to 'wake me up when september ends' or makeing a... pedeo video (again, the only one to understand it lol)... at least I thought it'd be fun before I joined the org... now I just do it to annoy.

@ Yue... Alcoholics Anonymous.... ;_; sooo goooooood

Early in WoW there was this bug with one of the bosses, where he would cast a DOT on people, and it was terribly beefy. It would spread from player to player if you were close enough. If you were a hunter, and had your pet out, and the DOT got on your pet, you could unsummon your pet with the DOT still on it. Then just go to the nearest big city with tons of people standing outside the bank/auction house/etc. and summon your pet. Watch the DOT kill everybody in the area. Anybody under like lvl 45 was dead in a few seconds. :3

Planescape: Torment
The whole game was incredible with its weird world, lots of dialog and how everything was connected, but the best moment was when
Spoiler :
it turned out 95% into the game that Morte and Dak'kon knew from the very beginning where you should be actually heading and how to get there. A portal to the final location was even at the exact same spot where the game started...

Fallout 1 & 2
Basically all of it.

System Shock 2
Spoiler :

I was there for the tail end (like 2 hours) of the Inner City battle of epic'ness. It was definitely pretty amazing when we finally won. I was sniping when we finally took it and I just remember somehow NOT being able to miss. I had a clear view of their spawn point (which was very close by the final capture point, so it was crucial that we took them out before they could get too far) and I seriously had magic aim or something cause it was just kill after kill after kill. Something I was never able to re-create since I'm not terribly good at the game :P But still, it was definitely an awesome time.

Another memorable gaming moment? Only a few people will be able to appreciate this, but.

*stand there*
*get hit*
*get dazed*
"RROOOOAAAAAARRR"
*try desperately to get away, slowly*
"geeeeyyyyeeeeeaaaaahhhh!!!"
*stomp*
*achievement earned*

:P

Indeed, it was a snipers paradise in Innner City. It's always a good thing when you can unload all of your ammo without being killed...and needing to get more from a dispenser...10 times in a row... :O
