Best stories/examples of Ownage

Halo 1, ME and my friend are on that ice level with the huge U turn, and from opposite sides of the map me and my friend fire 2 rockets at the SAMe time at a moving warthog in the middle...not only did they both nail it...but the body that flew out also hit my second rocket i fired a ways away from it...

I once killed a person with a flashbang in CSS...i know...fuckin amazing! No mods!...I hit him dead in the face...and he ran right off the cliff blind as a bat. >_< uber win.

I once threw a frag grenade in the passenger side of a warthog in halo 1. Or so it appeared (cuz u normally cant)
 
This is by far the most brutal story of ownage ever told.

It's from Eve online and it's about the Guiding Hand Social Club infiltrating and completely wrecking the Ubiqua Seraph Corporation.

...from a short review of this article:

This was published in September's issue of PC Gamer UK, a popular video game article magazine. It is a detailed account of what has to be one of most beautifully executed in-game scams in a MMORPG ever pulled. It breaks all previous world records for 'virtual crime'.

The game in question is Eve Online, an open ended sci-fi mmorpg with a heavy emphasis on roleplaying, where developers try to give their players as much freedom as possible, and where corporate espionage and political intrigue have become an integral part of the game.

The perpetrator of the heist was the Guiding Hand Social Club (GHSC) corporation (a corporation being similar to a clan in Eve); a freelance mercenary outfit that offers their services (which usually involves corp infiltration, theft and assassination) to the highest bidder. Over a year in planning, the GHSC infilitrated their target's corp with their own members and gained their trust, as well as access to the corp hangers, with time. It all concluded in a perfectly timed climax, with a massive theft in multiple corp hangars synchronized with the in-game killing of the corporation's CEO, the primary target of the contract.

What's most interesting and impressive about this operation is that it was entirely 'legal' and within the game's own rules, and the mastermind and his agents pulled it off together flawlessly, all the while staying in character. The estimated real-life value of the items stolen is, according to PC Gamer, $16,500 US. The in-game value of course is much, much higher as the things stolen would take years and years to aquire.
 
I guess I'm too dumb to embed videos, but:


Also probably only funny if you played Subspace, but hey.
 
I played against some guy who just did nothing but spam vertical attacks with Mitsurugi. I decided to test just how well he knew the game and played Yun-Seoung. I literally did not do anything but Crane Stance the entire match, all the rounds, and he never picked up on it. He eventually learned, because it didn't work in a later match, but I found it so appropriate that he was just playing a barbarian character at the time.

Oh yeah, and every time I can spam Astaroth's Canyon Creation on a downed opponent who doesn't know how to roll to the side. Someone actually filed a complaint for cheating when I did it, even though a smart player can punish me tremendously for trying it.
