I just have to say a quick word in the noobs favor here, yes they are annoying and yes they are idiots but they dont know what they're doing! its easy for someone whos racked up 500hours of online COD4 to laugh and point at someone who throws a grenade when trying to reload or manages to blind himself with a flashbang just before 3 guys come round the corner, just bear in mind that you were a noob once too!!

I've seen a lot of these. I think one of the ones that are worse are people who ask "Which button is A?" on the Wii remote, when there thumb is right on it, it's clearly marked A, and it's the only single button in the vicinity on the controller.

Ah, such are the pitfalls of noobs. oh and the controls for FF:VII are reversed as well.

I am an xbox man through and through, and to this day I still get the square and circle and triangle shit confused. I guess if it was introduced to me at birth than I would have It by now. I think i'll stick to nintendo and xbox 360

Hahaha! My dad thought the top DS screen was also touch screen and got so pissed. I just watch him, while I felt smart. :O

And playing with the remotes upside down is hard yet confusingly fun!

I think I have done everyone of this mistakes except the PSP and the cutscene ones.

The Shoryuken/Hadouken one is actually really easy to do when using an analog stick.

What about when you save over you best save game with some new one instead of in the freakin EMPTY game slot...

I actually make the button mistake often on my PSP, because I have a Japanese PSP, but largely play Australian sold games. I have to switch between the two which makes it hard when one of the funnest games is actually Japanese
