Favorite kill, in a game

Yeah, that and other FPSs are where most of mine are at. For BF2, I once snuck into the MEC base in Gulf of Oman and saw a guy running to hop into the jet. The tank sat unoccupied nearby, and he didn't see me so, I just hopped into the tank and waited for the poor sucker to get in the jet. I wish I could've seen the look on his face.

A couple from Halo (1): When I was playing the game for the first time, I gained a fondness for the rocket launcher. I was in Blood Gulch heading for the other bunker, about to reach the top of this hill when a guy in a Warthog suddenly crests the hill bearing down right on me. I scream, and out of desperation fire a rocket right into it. I stood there for a second, just dumbfounded as I watched the Warthog fly over my head and land a little ways behind me.

The other one was a miraculous kill by a rocket that flew for around 15-20 seconds before hitting a moving target.

One more from UT2003: Few things are more satisfying in that game than getting a Mega Kill with one shot. I was playing an assault mod with a bunch of bots and rounded a corner when I saw the whole other team except for one come out and start shooting. I had the bio-rifle, so I gave one of the bots a big glob of goo square in the chest. Three other bots were quite close by, so they all splattered from that too.

Most amazing jew boots

I once got to see this guy play Halo 2 that was near unstoppable when he picked up a shotgun. Even people with the energy sword didn't stand a chance against him. There apparently is a split-second where someone charging you with the energy sword is right in your face right before they take you out, and he had his timing down just right that he'd get a one-hit kill with the shotgun in that little split-second. I was watching him do this on a network game against some trash-talking kids. We both about laughed our heads off when he killed one of them in the manner explained, while the foe's teammate was not far behind, running towards him.....when the kid completely stopped, and just turned around and ran away.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

You know those dumb dogs in Silent Hill that just take passing lunges at you over and over again? I once timed it just right that when one of those lunged at me, it got a faceful of my Emergency Hammer. Awesome.

It's always fun (and to me, hilarious) in Halo (1 or 2, in this case it was 1) to come up behind some unsuspecting sniper and beat him down. Perhaps what really made doing that to someone on a CTF map funny was the guy's reaction. Basically, it was something to the effect of:

"OMG"
"TEAM!"

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
