  • This has happened to me and my friends quite a few times, but I doubt anyone would find it funny unless they've played Tales of Symphonia.

    In the extra dungeon, Niflheim, there's these torches you can light for extra items. But every time you enter, there's one torch that gives you the option of exiting the dungeon. And once you leave, you have to start all over.

    Anyway, me being the idiot that I am, would light the torches too fast to be able to see what it was offering me. And more often than not, we'd end up leaving the dungeon right before we'd complete it. ._.

  • In persona 4 I was fighting shadow Mitsuo, and I was almost done. I switched my MC's persona to one that can heal, then the boss used an attack that was strong against the persona I chose. After thirty minutes of fighting that bastard I died...

  • Mine are mostly pokémon epic fails.... I sometimes turn it off before it's finished saving >.<
    Also in double battles I somehow end up atacking my companion pokémon instead of the foe... which is an epic fail if you're battling Tate and Liza when they were hard to defeat and you'd spent the last 45 mins trying to take them down ;_;

    I wouldn't call it a EPIC fail but a fail never the less. In Blazblue, NEVER if you are using Ragna NEVER use "Carnage Scissors" on a Tager, or else you will feel the power of a "GAIGANTIC TAGER BUSTER!"

  • On Mario Kart Wii, I was racing at DS Yoshi Falls (or whatever it's called), and I cut a corner too short. I bottomed out on the ledge, and couldn't move until someone hit me with a red shell. I never used a kart afterward. =/

    Age 11. Playing Final Fantasy Legend 2 for Game Boy/Game Boy Pocket with a team of 4 Monsters. I reach a Major Boss, named Venus, and none of my Attacks Connected. Come to find out, she is immune to 99% of all Monster Skills, and the ones that do work on her are too weak to be useful. I had to start a new game and Choose a Robot to win. ;-;

    The worst part is, the Instruction manual said that a team of four Monsters was one of the worst Team combinations in the game, but I thought that I could prove it wrong.

  • I was playing GTA San Andreas and generally blowing up cars. I blew up this one car and was too close but miraculously I survived with very little HP. I started to walk away when suddenly the car door from the blown up car fell on me from the sky and killed me. How this happened I don't know because I didn't think it was possible.

  • Super Smash Bros Brawl: I was facing Tabuu on Intense and was holding a trophy stand, Tabuu would've been 'trophy-fied' if I hit him with it. He decided to cast his OHKO Off Waves, I timed the last one wrong and died. I just stared in disbelief and turned it off. One throw away from obtaining Tabuu's trophy on INTENSE. Epic failure...

  • My most major Pokemon fail was not realising you can go under the bridge on the path to Maulville. I got so mad, I restarted the game as a girl. I got to the same point and was so annoyed that I thought it would be a good idea to hit my GBA SP: I ended up knocking the button that sent me under the bridge. >.<

    On Mario Kart Wii, I have a fail that keeps on happening, I use the mushrooms and speed off the edges of cliffs. |:

  • I have a couple of these:


    While playing Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (the boss mode thing when you have to face all the bosses) It was the biolizard fight, the second to last hit and I had all the rings collected, then when I was about to it him, I accidentally hit backward on my controller and fall into the water and die........


    On Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess, I was in the temple place with the monkeys. I couldn't figure out how to move that giant rock for 3 days, then I threw a bomb guy at it and it exploded. If only I've done that sooner.

    Ugh, I had the same problem. I wandered that temple for hours trying to figure it out. >_>

    My most epic fail is probably one of my many moments where my brain is working further than my body and I just walk right into a dangerous spike or enemy and die horribly. Rage ensues.
