    personally i thought that the biggest facepalm in half life 2 was when gordon is almost to the lab to destroy everything and then decides to get in a restraining device instead

    why do people so, "well, what about..." there are Thousands of games..."Well..what about..." well, how about you open a can of stfu, gr kicks all ass

    Well, to be fair, the failure of the experiment wasn't Gordon's fault, he just pushed the trolley. And he wouldn't have know that the portal storms would happen.

    Isn't this basically the Top 7 Games Where You Find Out You're An Evil Bastard article? Though I agree with these 100%.

    You forgot Wander from Shadow Of The Colossus, i forgive you for the good content otherwise.

  • ClusterShart - June 26, 2009 7:45 p.m.

    Lol, you gave Dave (Solid Snake) 3 facepalms.

  • ELpork - June 26, 2009 6:45 p.m.

    YAY!!... Love star trek.

  • Ded - June 26, 2009 6:09 p.m.

    I'm surprised you didn't add Shadow of the Colossus..

  • Shipster360 - June 26, 2009 5:40 p.m.

    I think leeroy jenkins should have been included in this one

    LMAO at super mega hyper picard overload, that was hilarious! is that picture copyrighted, because I want it for my PS3! that's brilliant! seriously, is it copyrighted? @nadrewod999: that trend's been here for months, it's when people quote their ReCaptcha. E.g: reCAPTCHA: generics office

    Squibidy: Yeah, it's true that you only explicitly hear about the takeover of Pacific City, but there are very strong hints in the ending that it's about to spread. http://tinyurl.com/lms2ja

    Correction: The Agency in Crackdown only established dictatorship of the capital city. Whether this reach has grown remains to be seen in Crackdown 2. Or is GR dropping hints?...

    Talking about game characters facepalming themselves? Look at Cyberninja, a rather noobish, fanboy-esque FIRST! from him. And he got pipped to the post. F A I L. And, Killdrone? You don't insult the G-Man. You just don't.

  • KillDrone - June 26, 2009 4:44 p.m.

    Correction: G-Man caused the Black Mesa incident

  • NeoKef - June 26, 2009 4:23 p.m.
