Forums - Gaming - Have you been caught during an embarrassing moment in a game?

I ask this because some time ago I was playing Yakuza 4, and I was in the hostess maker minigame (basically you have to dress and put make-up to a hostess based on what the customers want). I hate this minigame, it's so boring. But you have to spend more than an hour doing this to platinum it.

Anyway, that's not the point. The point is that while I was putting her the make-up, my fiancée woke up (was playing in our room, I have my PS3 and TV there). I was like 'omfg, not now...'. I tried to distract her from the screen by walking to her and talking to her, but that just made it worse. My fiancée was like 'what are you doing?', looked at the screen and saw the close-up of the girl with make-up, pink, cute buttons and options for lipsticks, dresses, etc. She was like 'uh, hon... what are you doing?' while she was smiling and containing her laughter.

So yeah, I just told her I needed to beat that part of the game to be able to start breaking bones again, but it didn't help my cause much. My fiancée said something along the lines of 'it's ok, I still love you', while laughing and went back to sleep.

That was my most embarrasing moment in gaming, made even worse by me trying to hide it. Thank god we just take these things with humor and I can quickly forget the trauma and share it with VGC, lol.

What was yours?



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

I came back home in a hurry to fire up final fantasy X-2. The intro was so cinematic, almost life like. Camera was directed at Rikku , close-up pointing at her legs and went up all the way to her face. My religious father almost had a heart attack and I had to sit down and listen to his religious advice. He didn't believe that it was an intro to a real game so he took it away lol.

 

 

 

It's show time girls! lmao. I should've told him that I had no interest in girls... that would've killed him for real XD



Mine also came during Yakuza 4. I was playing on EX-Hard and having a hard time catching Sugiuchi in the boat chase scene. He just kept getting away because I would run out of gas, and so I was swearing up a storm. Then my mom happened to drop by and ran in to see what I was yelling about. When she saw what it was, she laughed at me, took the controller, and chased Sugiuchi down with ease. It was pretty humiliating, but I got the last laugh by smashing a bicycle over her head and jumping on her face with both feet. Bitch.

And that's the reason why I haven't bought the game yet...

Seriously, if somebody walked in while that was on the TV, I would die of embaressment.

Anyway, for me, it would have to be when I was playing FFX in my front room on a small TV a few months ago, then the kiss scene came on. All of my family went from being fixated on the big TV, to me and this small TV in the corner. I casually turned the sound down because the song wasn't helping things but it was still pretty bad.



There is a reason why I only decided to do the Kingdom Heart 2 'Under the Sea' part when I was alone.

the part when Aeris died in ff7 I had tears running down my eyes. My mom asked if everything is all right and I was like, yes everything is ok..



Who hasn't? lol

My latest "indecent" happened with a God of War 2 mini game, anyone who played the game knows what I'm talking about :p

I had the worst luck with No More Heroes, the game felt safe enough to play in the living room, then all of a sudden the main character start jacking off his "beam sword"



Yeah in Mass Effect 2 my mother walks in when my Shepard is having sex with Miranda.

I got caught taking risque pictures of Pokemon in Pokemon Snap!

No not really.

I guess it was when My uncle came over as a kid, and instead of going out to the common area to visit with him, I contintued to play Zelda and ignore him. I have not seen hims since. So it was kind of embarrasing to me.

It was a good call you kept playing Zelda. Uncles are creepy.



The most embarrasing thing I could think of, was when I was playing big brain academy with my younger cousins (on the DS) And i could not understand any of the exercises and they were kicking my ass. My youngest cousin (he was 9, now he's 11) was winning every round. My brain in the game was the smallest and puny.

I was so embarrassed; a grown man, not only losing to kids but couldn't even beat the games that required logic, memory, basic math etc. Plus it doesn't help that I have a learning disability..
