14 Biggest WTF Gaming Moments Of 2014

11. Beat Far Cry 4 In 15 Minutes By Doing Nothing

The Moment: At the beginning of Ubisoft's sandbox shooter, the player meets warlord antagonist Pagan Min and sits down to eat dinner with him. When he has to disappear suddenly, the player is prompted to leave and start their adventure, but if you decide to sit still for 15 minutes, Min will come return and allow the player to spread his mother's ashes as she requested, bringing the game to a quick close. It turns out even murderous warlords aren't always so bad... Why It's WTF: Say what you want about Ubisoft, but it's hilarious that they went to the effort to include something that would be glossed over by about 98% of the people playing this game. It's an amusing easter egg and a bizarre send-up of the very nature of video games, how their wildly convoluted premises twist otherwise ordinary events into 12-hour action-fests.
