10 Video Game Buttons You Shouldn't Have Pressed (But Totally Did)

1. Caught In The Web - Thief II: The Metal Age

Becoming a master thief is always something that appealed to me as a kid; sneaking into the houses of the rich, swiping their gold and spreading it amongst the poor seems like such a fun lifestyle to live, doesn't it?

The Thief games have always been a brilliant way for people to live out their sneak n' stealth life fantasies, and let me just state this right now: These games can be bloody hard. Guards will sometimes pinpoint your location from a mile away, you might find yourself cornered if you didn't memorise the map and so on, and even when the game is trying to teach the player a lesson, it doesn't do it gently.

Take for example, an encounter found within Thief II: The Metal Age, in which you come across a button labelled "Do not push this button".

If you do go against this express and clear command, you will be rewarded with... two massive spiders, who will turn you into lunch.

I'm not saying this isn't entirely our fault because, after all we DID press the button, but GIANT SPIDERS?! That's just gross.
