10 Cruelest Things We All Did In Famous Video Games

4. Blowing Up Megaton

Fallout 3 prides itself on offering the player the choice to play the game however they want to play it. While on a moralistic level this usually boils down to picking between an angelically good or diabolically evil set of choices, it's still an admirable attempt to give the player the ability to make their own path to the conclusion.

Of all of the terrible things that you can do in Fallout 3 - should you have a mind to - there is perhaps nothing quite as cruel as destroying Megaton due to the whims of a rich guy who thinks it gets in the way of his view.

By rigging the bomb in the centre of the town to explode you not only take out the very first settlement most arrived at after leaving Vault 101, but you also destroy the lives and hard work of everybody who had managed to build the town into a safe haven for travellers.

All because somebody offered you money because they think the town is an eyesore.
