OWNAGE Gaming moments -- 2006.

Halo 2 Ninjanaut on Beaver Creek. Essentially, Ninjanaught is Juggernaught, but in addition to overshield, the ninja is invisible. For this match, the radar was off, and the ninja had speed. I started out with the plasma pistol, but was not the ninja. So, I run out into the middle, where I spot the ninja jumping across the water. I run up to him, hit him with the charge shot, and then punch him in the face. 15 seconds into the match and I was already ninja. I won the match with a flawless victory, getting almost entirely beatdown and assassination kills.

Last night playing WoW. A Night Elf Rogue and a Gnome Warlock, both 35 where in Bloodhoof villiage griefing n00bs and killing their quest giving NPC's. Very brave. Along comes Pounder on his charging Kodo and lays waste to them. the Rogue tried to cloak so i hamstrung him and Rended him, I then ignored him while he bled to death, I then unequiped my weapon and punched the gnome to death, his Imp didn't even hit me hard enough to mess my hair. I then laughed as a recently arrived Undead lock feasted on their still warm boddies.

Just started playing EVE Online and hunting NPC pirates - I'm in a piddly little destroyer (a frigate killer in the game) when I run across a trio of pirate cruisers guarding a mining operation. I move to engage, and thanks to my medium shields (yes, yes, horribly overpowered for a DD) I can simply sit there and take the damage all awhile whittling away at the enemy

My 4x75mm railgun, 2x125mm railgun and missile launcher might not be that powerful, but it did the job after horrible ammunition expenditure.

Meanwhile, some CDF guys notice me and offer help (one guy flying cover in a battlecruiser for a couple of miners) but I have it handled

The single greatest ownage moment I've experienced was a recent game of Source at a LAN. We were playing Playground (I believe), and I was just walking along with Le Clarion when I ran into one of the best players I know. I headshotted him. Not exceptionally impressive, but the next game I did it again. And the game after that. I ended up with a streak of ten headshots in a row.

Same LAN, different map. A variant of Assault. Anyway, I'm low on cash, so I didn't bother buying anything that round. I went up onto the roof, down onto the containers nearby, then took a flying leap onto the wall below that, skittered along towards the entrance to the warehouse and took another flying leap on to a CT and emptied the clip into him, grabbed his Maverick and killed his team mate in front of him before running off towards the CT spawn and managing to catch another of their players unawares.

Damn I'm jammy!

BF2: Wake Island

I'm on Chinese side sitting in the stinger at the airstrip waiting for my jet to respawn and some US guy comes at me in his jet, shoots me dead and then crashes in to the stinger site. I put a little "Nice flying" into all chat, respawn, get in my jet and promptly smoke him and the other US pilot.

About 5 minutes later i'm still flying and i realise the other chinese jet has been following me for a while. I'd taken a bit of damage so i assumed a US jet with no missles was trying to tag me with guns. I look back and it's just the J-10 there. The guy had switched sides, and spent the last 5 minutes trying to TK me, failing miserably. I pull a half loop, right myself then pull a full loop and dive back down while the other guy keeps on going up, stalls and then drifts out of bounds.

Battlefield2:

Some level involving a fight between Glorious People's Army and the Imperialist Swine. A Story that mystifies me no matter how I look at it.

My medic was trudging his way across the map to a nearby flag to pick up a vehicle, where I notice an Imperialist Swine APC that had been wedged rather hard into a tree. Also, Glorious People's Flag was slowly going down. Intrigued, I jumped into the NPC and spotted a pair of legs sticking out of the sandbags by Glorious People's Flag. Needless to say, they, and the person they were attached to, became Imperialist red mist in fairly short order.
Mysteriously, Glorious People's Flag was still going down. Noting the sandbag wall behind the ridge I was crouching behind, I expended one of Glorious People's grenades to rid myself of the problem.
Still, Glorious People's flag went down. Most vexed, I popped up over the ridge to discover two assault Imperialists lying down by Glorious people's flag and looking in completely the wrong way.
Taking (Glorious People's) communist principles to my heart, I allowed them both equal amounts of lead. After the first one died, the second one started to realise something was up. He nearly, almost stood up.

Mysteriously, one of them started a kick vote for me afterwards, convinced I was cheating as 'he couldn't see where I could have come from'.
Advice to all imperialists: When Billy is reduced to red mist by your own vehicle, take a look around, eh?
For Glorious People's Republic!

First game I played after unlocking the M95 was on Wake Island as Chinese. I had heard that the M95 could go through the glass on choppers and planes, so I took a potshot at a Blackhawk's cockpit just for the hell of it. Needless to say, I killed the pilot and it went into a tree, out of control. Turns out it was a full one, too.

As for one where I was owned, on Dalian Plant. Shot down a J-10, and immediately ran into his fuselage and exploded.

IL-2 Forgotten Battles with all the add-ons

Flying on Warclouds public server, on the Blue (Allied) side guarding a few sites against raiding Reds (Germans). I was flying solo in a Tempest MkV, one of the new planes added in a recent patch. Went to a "quiet" area to do some flight testing before throwing myself into the fray.

I was just puttering around doing some climb and dive tests, when I saw a lone Ju88 heading my way. I flew his way, accelerated to max speed, vertical looped as soon as I passed his 3/9 line, came back down like a ton of bricks and gave him a 1/2 second burst, more a "slow you down" than anything else. I was hoping to maybe take an engine out or something to slow him down so I could get to work on him.

I turned my head and saw that the Ju88 had actually broken in half from that burst. The poor Ju88 pilot was going "did you hit me with a bomb or something?!" as a bomber can usually take a lot more punishment than a mere 1/2 second burst, when they go down it's usually because of flaming engines or pilot kills, not disintegration of aircraft.

Fear the 4x 20mm Hispano-Suizas.

"Danger Zone" rules of engagement require that all extreme air-to-air kills must be followed up by an afterburned barrel roll through the explosion/wreckage. Alas, sometimes the game doesn't always agree...

Master of Ossus wrote:World of Warcraft: a human Paladin at lvl 60 is riding towards me (~lvl 35 shaman, at the time), clearly about to take me down. I click on him to get his name, and spot an incredible number of buffs on this guy. He must've spent an hour collecting buffs for his character, only to gank a comparative lowbie (what a lamer). So I quickly get out of travel form and while he's riding towards me I spam Purges on him. I got five or six of them off before he killed me, then let my guildies know where he was. I would've loved to see the look on his face when he figured out what I had done.

Assholes like that deserve what they get. I fucking hate gankers with a passion, and I see them in Redridge all the time. "oh look, another lv60 shaman is paying the 20s a visit!" The worst is when they use their mounts to get onto buildings where nobody can reach them and start sniping people.

I think my best moment of ownage in WoW was the day my 25 warrior killed a 40+ troll mage. I was using dual-wield with a sword and dagger and was hitting him so fast he couldn't get his spells off.

Bastard stopped ganking right quick.

Plenty of killing in some vain attempt to reaching Grand Marshall, but my fave this year was none of those.

My fave was we got the UBRS buff to farm Rag because we wanted to have a bear tank, and what the hell...we already have the warriors 300+ FR unbuffed. So we're travelling back down as a guild, when one of our NE priests (who has never PvPed in her life) ressurects a dead rogue. Well he was PvPing in here(moron, given there was a elite Horde guild gathering for MC), gets her flagged so she's on TS asking what that means. Out come two hunters(some unguilded), chasing poor Anni around. So after the warriors mop the floor with the two 52 level punks, the rest of the guild calmly walked down to MC flagged.

Funnier still that same Horde guild were killing the stupid rogue Anni revived.

The highlight being, one of the orc hunters took throwing himself off into the lava, rather then face any of the warriors off.

Indeed. My friend hates watching me fly because it gives him motion sickness. I can't help wanting to fly under bridges upside down, it's just in my blood.

Just got Final Fantasy Tactics (non Greatest Hits version) for $3.98.

Now that's ownage!

I have this... 'problem', in CoD2, in that I only use the Garand. You may not think this is a problem, but playing maps like Brecourt where every man, his dog, and each one of his dog's testicles are carrying sniper rifles, it becomes somewhat worrisome. Somehow I always manage to win in the games against my friends, though, so I must be doing something right.

Anyway, back to Brecourt. I guess, from the bullets whizzing past my head, that each one of those snipers I was talking about earlier are secreted in the ruins running parallel to the mine field. Hoping to at least spook them, I toss my three frags in behind the ruins. To my utter, utter amazement, two get killed by the first gren, then the other three get flushed out. I put them down, then go about rolling on the floor, laughing my ass off. They had to be less than a couple metres from each other. It was absolutely incredible.

Its not like I play FPS, but I've seen some stuff with HALO from other people:

Sidewinder Map. CTF. A single Red team member manages to infiltrate Blue Base, and runs up behind a man "guarding" the flag. He says "Hey, watch this!", flips up the 2x pistol scope and targets the neck seal of the armor. WAM!

Blood Gulch, CTF. A sniper has gone up the cliff. One man spawns, runs up his base to the battlements, picks up a sniper rifle, and steps two feet to the left. POW, Bullet through the head. Respawns, runs back up, picks up the sniper rifle again, and steps two feet to the RIGHT. Flips the scope on 10x and picks off the sniper.

Again, Blood Gulch CTF. Sniper up on the cliff. The snipers having fun choosing his targets. Meanwhile, I watch as two enemy guys hop in a Warthog and procede to drive it up the cliff to get at the sniper.

The sniper, having just run out of ammo, shoulders his rifle and turns around to see a Warthog coming at him at full speed. He gets run over. The camera zooms out, and we watch as the warthog, now on it's right 2 wheels, slowly tips off the edge of the cliff.

Also, there's nothing using like a Vulcan on the enemy in Total Annihilation. That thing just screams "PWNAGE!!!"

Aco rounds in Dusk, Americas Army.

I'm with an M249, spawning on Ambush, rushing down south stairs, see enemy rushing, quick burst puts him down. Go up the VIP stairs, find a pair of enemies, shoot them down, I'm red, go across the bridge, theres three enemies, including VIP. Firing madly, VIP drops, the other two get cut down then I recieved a small bullet that killed me.

Total Annihilation, last Arm mission. I decide to have some fun, so I max out on Brawlers, and control all of them (over 100) on a mass annihilition run. That was fun
