Topic: What silly or embarrassing things do you do in video games?

There was this one person who explained that, in GTA IV, he likes to get into the backseat of a taxi and select a destination that's pretty far away. Once the driver starts moving, he enables the cheat for 6 stars and sees how long the driver can last while running from the police. He claimed that it's way more intense than it sounds, and the driver usually gets him to the destination safe.

Here's an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueyRpHVlM9s

In GTA San Adreas I active Flying cars, then jump onto a NPC's roof and stomp on it- causing them to speed up and start flying.

It's the best thing ever.

In Bayonetta... I press the taunt button over and over just to see Bayonetta grind her sexy body...

I try imitating music using the horn on MK8 to make it a bit more interesting. (Doesn't really help though sadly).

I used to name characters in RPGs after myself and people I know.

...and then I played Mother 3.

The strangest thing I do is I always bow in respect to princess zelda the first time she is revealed in a zelda game im playing and everytime in the opening montage of SSBM. It is a very odd habit but i cant break it.

Back when I was playing Ocarina of Time 3D, I enjoyed going into first person view and spinning around in my spiny office chair and watching the land of Hyrule spin around and around.

When I was playing Skyward Sword, I would fly around on the loftwing and then jump off, Iron Man dive bomb towards the clouds and then call the bird again to come and catch me... and then do it all over again.

In Mass Effect I sometimes shoot at my squad mates in combat to see what they say
"This is ME Shepard."

If I was going to the surface, I would jump off my loftwing prematurely and then guide myself towards the hole. I made it a little game to see how far away I could be before jumping off and still make it to the hole in the clouds.

If the game allows me to customize a character (Fire Emblem: Awakening, Guild Wars 2, etc.) I give the character a couple of my traits (hair/eye/skin color mostly) and my name, at least the first time around.

I got a Shrek mod of Left 4 Dead 2 that makes the Tank zombie look and sound like Shrek.It's led to endless hours of laughs.

On Just Cause 2, I like to find really tall buildings and then call in a motorcycle which I then drive off the building.

Also, I like to call in an air propulsion gun which I use while standing on top of cars to make them go insanely fast.

Oh, and we can't forget how on Red Faction Guerrilla I like to rapidly switch back and forth between equipment items to make it look like Alec Mason is dancing. Set it to a bit of dub step and you've got yourself one heck of a laugh going.

This gif perfectly reflects my reaction to reading that. I am still cringing.

I got pretty good at the ocarina in Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask. I even used to practice scales and arpeggios.

I loved knocking down bee hives in Skyward Sword and making the bees mad.

Ha, that reminds me of a hilarious incident on that game. One time my brother grabbed a hive with the beetle and brought it back to Link before dropping it right on Link's head. XD

• I used to name my Pokémon after DBZ characters & the like.
• In the Smackdown VS Raw games, I hardly ever used the actual wrestlers. Instead, I'd make 30 or so CAS (I think that was the max number), and just have CPU VS CPU matches with them, all night long (I'd make really random characters too, like Mario & Luigi, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Sora, Vegeta, Ryu, Peter Griffon, etc.)

I still hit the chicken in Zelda games. Even though I'm fully aware of the consequences.

Everytime I create a character based off of myself I try my hardest to hide how he (or sometimes she because rule 63) looks for as long as possible. I usually stop when someone finally sees the character or when I believe that I've done enough work on them (for now.)

When I was 14, during pretty much the first time you can play as Sheena in Tales of Symphonia, I intentionally ran towards the camera for a minute just to stare at her cleavage.

None of you are gonna top that. I hope.
