Contra Hard Corps: Just starting level 1, I take two steps and get killed by a charging kill-a-bot. >.<

Perfect Dark: On my last few bars of health. I try to sneak past this group of guards, only to walk right into a guard, who then proceeds to aim, fire, and kill me. >.<

Scarface: The World is Yours: I'm caught in an epic gun battle when a helicopter shows up. I was holding a rocket launcher at the time, so I thought I'd play the hero and fire at it and kill it. I fired, missed, then got my head blown off. >.< (And to add insult to injury, I hadn't saved the game for a whole two hours of doing stuff to get where I was.)

Killzone: I was at the last parts of a certain level, I forgot I was playing campaign mode instead of free play mode. So, Being the idiot I was at the time, I decide to be an hero and hold a grenade in my hand until it detonated, Killing me and the two enemy troops that where there. >.<

GTAIV: I was chasing some guy down with a bike and got to a part where I had to turn. I didn't turn sharp enough and smacked into the wall and killed myself. >.<

Mortal Kombat Chronicles: Sub-Zero: The first level, I simply ran through the first part, thinking it was safe, and then right into a trap that squashed me flat. >.<

Doom 64: The Cyberdemon, 'Nuff said. >.<

And finally (Because I think I'm making this post too long)...

M.U.G.E.N: Going trough Mario World 1-1 as Apocalypse. >.< 'Nuff said.

Let me remember something...

Oh yes, and I still can't do it even to this day.

-Trying to deactivate the Mantid's computer barrier in order to place bombs on it in Turok 2.  Not sure if it's a failure or a glitch.

I was playing Tales of Destiny yesterday, going through the tower of Druaga (even messing up on the 59th floor and losing about 20 floors), and when I finally got to Druaga... well, I have a burnt copy of this game. There are occasional glitches, which is odd considering all the other burnt games I played really just have loading problems. One was that sometimes, when I enter into the battle, when the screen goes black with the battle music, seconds later, the stage music comes back, and I don't fight. I get no experience or anything. Good bye Faerie Ring.

So I go up to the final floor, and I cannot put down any of the 3 rods I needed to finish the tower. So I basically had to use some Winged Boots and exit.


Sigh...

ugh, God I hate that guy. It's because of him and other characters that I grind all the way to 80-something. XD

-Mega Man X6: I plowed through the second part of Gate's stage using Shadow Armor X...then I got to the dreaded giant pit which is near impossible to cross without the proper armor/powerups which I sadly wasn't using.

-Pokemon R/B/Y: When I first played this game, I used only one Pokemon throughout the entire game, and that was my starter. It didn't pay off when I reached the Elite 4, and ended up dying to Bruno(or Gary, I don't remember too well).

-Breath of Fire 2: This one I may not remember exactly, but the first time I fought the final boss, not all of my characters were fused...and the final boss ended up killing me when I almost beat the bastard. That, and the final dungeon preceding him is ridiculously long.

-Arc the Lad 1/2: Going through all 50 floors of the Forbidden Ruins and getting all the awesome treasure, Choko(in the first game), etc...only to fall on your last leg by the time you're going back up, and dying at least in the middle of going back up, or even near the entrance. And this is a huge dungeon.

-Persona 3: Not paying attention to some characters(ex: Yukari), and not leveling them up. When they were required as party members at certain parts of the story, they were pretty much screwed due to being unused and dramatically underleveled, thus the bosses killed them in an instant, and in turn, the rest of my party was dead.

In general, I tended to be underleveled for some bosses the first time around, and I was sometimes lacking in good Persona. It took me a while of grinding to fix that, and considering the sick/tired status thing, I was lucky that I kept most of my save files approximately 3 or so days before the full moon.

As far as the wiegraf/velius battle goes, I just use Yell and Accumulate a lot.

So it's actually possible to clear the gap with the shadow armor?

There's one reason I hated X6: horrible level design.

I remember doing that and felt like a smartass, but when Wiegraf knocked me down the counter ran out in two turns. Ramza body transformed into trasure = Game Over.

Just happened. Ugh.

Got to the final boss of MM2, and ran out of Bubble Lead, the ONLY weapon that hurts him, and there's NO way to refill. :bigcry:

I think it was, but it's been a damn long time since I played the game. You would probably need something like the Speedster/Jumper parts.

being killed by the robots on deus ex just at the beginning of the level, I would walk into the first zone, started trading fire, accidentally hit the robot on my side, got wasted.
