I got 3 fatal headshots with one bullet.

You are Lee Harvey Oswald and I claim my five hundred dollars.

Piemaster:
I killed the Overseer as well. How was I supposed to know Amata was there?

I did that too, but it's because Amata was crying for help. I rushed into the security office trying to sneak up on the guard (wearing Vault 101 Security Armor to look like a guard, but it didn't fool anyone), then beat him to death with a Police Baton. The Overseer then attacked me and I had to bludgeon him as well.

But I think the most messed up thing I've done so far is let a Raider get into point-blank range, switch to my biggest gun, and target his head with VATS. I nearly stuck the barrel of my Chinese Assault Rifle into his mouth, and his head was blown to bits.

I'm thinking about getting the Psychotic Prankster achievement soon - using my Stealth Boy, sneaking up on some guy, picking his pocket and planting a frag grenade on him. I just haven't chosen a victim yet.

*cough* *cough*

I once killed four raiders by putting mines in their pants. Bloody Mess perk + mines = raining blood

Not a Spy:
I did pretty much the exact same thing, Except i killed the mother afterwords.

I figured it'd be way more fucked up to let her live with the image of her son's head exploding all over her. :D

Man I have no idea I play PC-version, but are you sure you are willing to attempt this act of utter insanity freely!?

My friend and I took turns killing the scientist for the "Those!" quest. Quicksave, Load, kill, rinse, repeat. Tried to find the most amusing way to blow him away.

I've concurred that punching his head clean off with one swing of the Power Fist is highly amusing. Especially as he runs.

What? Why, yes, I am a sadist, thank you for asking!

mine was probalby inside the vault 112(?) simulation where you are supposed to make a little boy cry so i thought what would make him cry? It was obvious, kil his parents so i get to their house and the mum is upstairs so i stroll into the kitchen and pick up a rolling pin and sneak into the bedroom where the mother is and i smash the back of her head in as her arms explode(Bloody mess) as im heading down the stairs the dad starts to walk up to me, now i had dropped my rolling pin so i only had one option.... my fists, so i do a charge up attack at his groin and both of his legs detach at the joint as he screams in terror falling down the stairs then the boy comes in sobbing.

I felt bad, real bad.

Finished it and realised I couldn't continue playing. "No biggie" I figured "I'll just reload my last save!". Then I realised my last and only other save was moments before the final scene...

*cries*

A talon mercenary was cowering in fear after I brought down the majority of his HP. He had been attacking me with grenades. So I backed up, activated my good friend VATS, and shot the grenade hanging off his belt. He exploded in a hilarious shower of guts. I didn't think it would work!

After that I couldn't wait until I saw a raider with grenades. Didn't take long. He was in mid throw when it blew up...ahh, to be young again...and headless...with no arms.

At the start of the part of the game where you begin trying to escape, I accidently killed a poor woman while trying to save her from the rad roaches. I was hitting the roaches with the police baton and she got in the way too many times. I felt bad about that, especially when the lady's kid started yelling and crying at me for not saving her. I also wound up getting the Sherrif killed while trying to help him deal with the guy in Megaton who wanted someone to blow up the bomb. I tried to kill the bad guy before he could kill the sherrif but wasn't fast enough. Then I beat the guy to death with my police baton while he just tried to run away and didn't really attack me back too much. I wonder how many other unintended consequences this game has lurking.

Richard Groovy Pants:
I blew up megaton.

I dare anyone to try and beat that!

That is not only messed up but dumb. There are a lot of goodies to get out of Megaton that you missed out on by blowing it up.

I'm a very good character, but I like killing evil people in gruesome ways. I killed Mr. Tenpenny quite clean. I just walked up to the top of his tower (after bribing the guard to let me in), blew his head clean off with one shot and then quitely went downstairs again.

Eh, anyway, I killed a big load of slavers today and put them all on a pile with the drag button. After that I roasted them.

In a slightly off topic movement, this post is going in the opposite direction.

Now firstly I play my character as neutral, I blew up Megaton because I like Tenpenny Towers, but I am also quite nice to people and just do what I feel like at the time.

So naturally i've been horrid to people, i've shot harmless scavangers, killed the Ghouls that annoy Tenpenny towers because they're ugly, but there is one thing I can't do.

No matter how hard I try, even with the promise of being able to load a save from 2 minutes before, I jsut can't kill Dogmeat. He's my friend and out in the wastelands a man gets awful lonely and has some "needs". I jsut love Dogmeat too much.

Please don't tell me what "needs' you have xD
I haven't played Fallout 3 yet but this thread has taught me a lesson...
Fallout 3 kicks ass xD
You can do some messed up shit in that game. I mean, splattering someone's brains all over their loved ones is fun. But then undressing their body and putting their body in a bath tub? That is priceless! xD

Yeah, a ton of story arcs just end when you do that. There are a bunch of people you can do missions for and stuff that you totally lose when you do that. That does take the cake though...

Jamash:
The most messed up thing I wanted to do was on the mission Those! where I had to go & check on that kids father. Once I discovered he was dead I wanted to pick up his body & carry it to the kid to show him, holding him up standing & facing door of the shelter the kid waits in, as I opened the door...Surprise! I found your Dad!

Unfortunately the game wouldn't let me carry his dead dad out of the house, so I had to settle for stuffing a few heads & limbs of some raiders & blew up with a grenade into the shelter with the kid, you know, to keep him company & give him something to play with in the pitch black shelter while I went off to kill the ants. Also the make sure he was super safe I put a mine outside the door, so nobody could sneak up on him...

But I got distracted doing that mission by some Brotherhood of Steel guys & Super Mutants, so I haven't completed it yet or gone back to the shelter, the kid's still in there... in the dark... with his 'toys'.

That is hilarious. I could just imagine you miming with the dad's dead body - "I'm ok son! - haha, nah, just kidding, it's me."

Probably when I got myself irradiated for Moira's research. I just went down to the big ol' nuke in the middle of Megaton and splashed around for a good 10 minutes (I was going for the optional 600 rads). It struck me just how odd I must've looked - frolicking around a giant nuclear warhead until I developed severe cancer in every part of my body.

I always find that dude preaching at the bomb interesting. He always standing in the water, he should be dead!

Well, maybe because he was born in the wasteland, he has a much better resistance to radiation. He can shrug off something that would kill you or I (rad-virgin Vault Dwellers).

This is a little but disturbing now that ive done it but here it goes. You know when your near a super mutant camp and you see the "gorebags", well I noticed there a several varying mutilated body parts in them, so for the rest of the game I made it a habit of collecting all the body parts i could, but rather then store them in a cabinet in my house, I thought it would be interesting to make a pile of body parts on the floor, to break the look of my vault style house. After I realized that you had to drop them one at a time to make a pile, I quickly returned to the missions, stopping every so often to deposit my friendly assortment of body parts. After a few missions my floor was covered in disembodied limbs and heads, and as an added effect i dropped a fair amount of blood packs, and teddy bears on the floor. It was kinda odd when I took the time to study what I had done. Kinda like doctor Frankenstein, except not as poetic, or awesome.

That's exactly how I feel

Now, whoever said that people who play video games aren't creative? No, but that just really shows the awesome amount of freedom, and the encouragement of that freedom, in this game.

I'm starting my second playthrough with a character that can sneak so I can jump on this whole "Exploding Pants" bandwagon. It really sounds like a blast.

P.S. You're all welcome for that joke. (sounds like a blast...) Feel free to tell it to your grandparents, religious leaders, or local small children. I'm sure they'll think it's very funny.

You can continue the main story by going to GNR or Rivet City

you can do blood ties by going to Arefu

you can do the wasteland survival guide by going to Underworld

About the only thing you lose if you blow up megaton is the Strength bobblehead, if you don't get it before you blow it up, which is very possible.

Heck, you can run into megaton, break into the back of the saloon, break into the cabinet, use Moriarti's computer, talk to Burke, agree to blow it up, run to lucas smith's place, get the strength bobble, set the charge, run to tenpenny tower, bam.

no loss at all

Every time I start a game, just before the GOAT, I punch butch unconscious in the exam room. Also, I later killed him with the bb gun.

Being the good fellow that i am in RPG's (bar fable 2) The most i did was make that kid cry in the tranquility simulation. that was before i knew i didnt have to though

After getting a device that will remain unnamed in a place also unnamed I journeyed to a place where I knew a community of cannibals existed and stealthfully enslaved each one of them. In my mind I was doing the right thing, in the slave pens they would no longer be a threat to weary travellers. Also, at 250 caps a head I turned a pretty good profit. I do still feel a little bad for their two orphan children though, I wonder what will become of them...

It would've been faster if you also drank the water while you stood in it. :P Would've saved you 9 minutes.

The most messed up thing I did was at a friends house. He was annoyed for some reason at the people in the church in Megaton. He decided to end their miserable lives with his 10mm Pistol. Me usually being the nice guy in games takes his controller and scolds him. "Bad (insert friend's name here). You should know better than that." I then switch to his missle launcher and VATS a random victim and launch the missle. "That is how you take out a church." This left my friend crying in laugher as we pasued the game still laughing. After that I decided to see what activating the bomb in Megaton would do on my name. I saved before hand and walked the distance. Usually annoyed at how game hype up tramatic moments only for them to be less than great. I was pleased and shocked to see how I doomed the entire town.

Yet, arguably the most annoying resident of megaton still lives!

And at least end the church goers lives with a mini nuke. it's what they would want.

Well, I'm a Slaver in the game now, so I've done a whole litany of messed up stuff. Most of which involve trying to kidnap people. For a while, the people I was abducting kept dying before they reached Paradise Falls, as they were miles away from the bloody place and took the most direct route, which sometimes involved running through a Deathclaw infestation. I didn't pick this up 'till last night.

Worst thing I've done for the Slavers? Abduct a naieve kid from Little Lamplight. Man, that was a terrible thing to do.

WheresMyCow:
Wow you guys are sick in the head, no offense, I'm not exactly the most sane person either. Still that's some messed up stuff.

Indeed! Although some of this posts are rather lame. Fallout is supposed to be extreme gaming experience after all

This brings me back to Fallout 2 when I discovered you could shoot people in the groin, how brutal is that on a scale? As I didn't have the patience for all the talketive types of the wastes at the time I made a character named the "Groininator" whose sole purpose was to get through the game by terminating all life in his path through groinshooting. The Groininator met hundreds of poor souls, some strong others weak some even children, popped one or two shots in their groins and then killed them face to face with a blunt hammer to the eyes on the ground. From New Reno to Vault City he romed leaving no ones testisection untouched. As I got to the oil tanker after a fit of groinshooting I quickly realized that I couldn't get any farther in the story since the people who were supposed to drive the tanker where lying dead on the ground with bullet holes to the groin ... and thusly I concluded that my job was done and the game finished. The only problem seemed to be in finding the groin on insects and robots but I managed alright nevertheless. Unfortunatly there is no groin shooting in Fallout 3, but maybe that is for the best

^^ I did that in Soldier of Fortune

went through the whole game, getting almost 100% Nether Region shots.

I wouldn't say that is very psychotic in itself. It is one thing to push a button from afar, it is quite the other to chase the poor devils down with a flaming sword, throw their dismember heads in the radioactive water, dance around with naked corpses and THEN push the button. This is after all, the MOST messed up thing you can try to do

I set up the dude who offers you to blow up Megaton then refused and grassed him up to the sheriff. Because I liked both of their hats.

So the sheriff yells at the dude then gets shot in the back, I took this oppertunity to look the sheriff, claiming his hat and duster, then turn my new found Chinese Assult Rifle to the well dressed guy's head and blew it off, then picked up his head-gib and placed it on a bar stool, looting his suit, hat and glasses which surprisingly, his disembodied head still wore after I took it off him. What surprised my further is that killing the guy who works for Tenpenny gives you good Karma, too. But still. I leave Megaton with 2 new outfits and a crappy Megaton house that I could never afford to upgrade ever.

There's my experience. Right thar.

I convinced the brat in Rivet city to run away from home.

Because no one loved him.
