When playing Oblivion I didnt realise you could instantly travel to locations on your map. I completed that entire game riding around on a goddamn horse. It took hours.
This doesn't only apply to me, but everyone who has played Mass Effect. I did not realize there was a zoom function on the Mako until the last time you step foot in the vehicle.
Most players never even knew that there is a plasma canon on the Mako, Kevin Van Idiot Ord also didn't know this when he wrote his review.
Losing to my nan on FIFA 96 on the Sega Megadrive. I was pretty young, but that was the first time she had ever touched a game console and I hung my head in shame for months.... still haven't forgot it. Still have no idea how she won, I just couldn't score a damn goal and someone she scored against me!
I once lost to the computer in backyard football. I always play those games on the hardest difficulty, and it was my only ever loss. The great pablo sanchez fumbled on the one yard line, and I lost by one. I'm still haunted by that.
Quick saving on Max Payne 2 literally a second before Vlad hit and killed me with a molotov cocktail. Had to start all over again. It's lucky that game is so good because otherwise i'd have smashed it to pieces in a fit of blind rage.
"Apparently 90% of the population played Oblivion without knowledge of a drag button."
lol, I found out, but at first I didn't until I saw vids of people playing the PC version. I also didn't have much use for it either."
I didn't know about it until long after I stopped playing. They have such an extensive tutorial and leave out only one function, at least it's the one that is never needed.
I was playing Brawl with my friend a while back. We were playing stock 5 lives and I was winning with 4 lives while he only had one. Then he said something along the lines of "It would be really funny if I somehow won this."

....then he did...."
OMG Do tell. Who were you each playing as? What map? That's hilarious.
"The first time I played GoW online, I was screaming at my teammate that there was someone behind him, about to shoot, while I was dead.
I was laughed at for the next hour and a half.
"
I do stupid stuff like that alot, when I'm the last person alive on my team I keep talking excessively, then realize a minute or so later that nobody else is alive on my team. Quite hilarious.

Same here. Sometimes, I'll narrate myself to my teammates absentmindedly. People don't like me much on Gears...

I think I was playing as Snake and he was playing as Kirby. He is much better then me and wins against me most of the time, so I was happy that I was finally going to beat him... And we were playing on Battlefield.

I'll played an entire match in UT3 (horrible game, btw) blabbing on and on to my team about this and that, all the while thinking that when they were speaking they were addressing me. Later, I found out that you actually had to press up on the D-pad to talk.

Woah dude... at a football game as well.
Although I'm mostly impressed you managed to get your nan playing computer games. My dad wont even touch our Wii - he thinks this new fangled technology is a waste of time, and the world was a better place when kids were out building tree-houses and collecting frogs or whatever it was kids did before fun was invented.
Not knowing how to grab onto ledges in Shadow Of The Colossus......for about two hours, I was trying to get out of this temple-place I fell into (thinking the first Colossus was there), until I finally just gave up and started over.

<----I'm with stupid."
Basically pretty much any experience i've had with Halo 3 multiplayer. God damn, I wish they'd just let you talk.
Usually in MMORPGs, I would end up completely fucking over my character's stats or selling things worth several hundreds of thousands of dollars for a very low price.
