This is a thread for short and funny/amusing bits from games. Yes the "great moments" can be interpreted sarcastically if you like.  Great Moments in Game AI: (Fallout) Great Moments in Scripted Weapons: (Oblivion) |

Great Moments in Rocket Parkour (Quake 3)
Okay this video is a little long, but I think it's worth a watch at least in part. Basically what is happening is people are using the weapon kickback physics of the venerable old Quake 3 engine in combination with a simple mod that turns off all damage. Basically allowing them to use rockets and other weapons with kickback effects (they 'push' you when they detonate nearby) to launch themselves and perform tricks. It's Interesting with 1 person, impressive with two, and downright amazing with a whole bunch.
You'll see what I mean if you watch, the results are impressive in terms of coordination, timing and ingenuity. Remember than no cheats are being used (other than players take no damage from anything, otherwise they'd explode pretty quickly) and everything is being aimed manually. I'm certain there is a certain amount of 'demo reel' madness going on (if you miss a trick 400 times and make it once, you show the 1 time you got it and not the failures) but still, I think it's impressive.

Well that was a little disappointing. I was totally hoping the prone guy was going to wipe out the entire platoon.

Oh man, Dark Souls is sooo much fun. I rented it but when I get more oney I'm buying it. I've got Demon's Souls as well. I have lots of funny deaths in both games.

I played the hell out of Dark Souls for several weeks.. would liked to have given demon's souls a try too but I am PS3-less. Nowadays I am pretty much lacking time. But some day! *shakes fist* I'll go back to blissfully getting killed by everything that moves.
