Some times. When I was playing Jedi Academy as an evil person, I did feel bad about striking Rosh down, even though he was as annoying and useless as Jar-Jar Binks.
Bioshock anyone?
The storyline of the entire game smelled like feces. And not just monkey feces. Gameplay was quite good, but the story... urgh. At least in Jedi Outcast the story had a dash of sense in it.Some times.

Most disappointing alternate ending ever. Darkside ending of JA sucked.

My thoughts exactly, I could never bring myself to harvest, I always saved the little girls.
I've always had a bad tendency to do whatever I can to keep AI teammates alive. Even in Freespace, I catch myself ordering my wingmates to depart when it becomes obvious they're done for if they stay any longer.
Earlier today I was playing an adventure on Adrift where my character was stuck in a cabin of a passenger spaceship, where I had a porthole that my character had broken that showed the turbine that powered the ship. I was stuck so I just decided to have my character start throwing everything out of the porthole, which then went out through a hole in the turbine into space.

I tend to follow the good path, though games make a nasty habit of presenting moral choices that are akin to being either 1) Jesus/Bono 2) The Devil is Loser and he's my *****. I think it would be much more interesting to give the player more Machiavellian options or at least making the consequences less obvious.
I was just wondering if any of you sometimes feel bad when you do something that can be perceived as cruel in a video game, or am I just being silly?

I purposely gib the terrorists and gangsters in Soldier of Fortune, so....
I kill anything that can be killed. And then hack the game so that everything can be killed.
I haven't heard of this game,Adrift (http://www.adrift.org.uk/) is a text-adventure game platform that allows people to create and share their own adventures. For the record, the adventure I was playing at the time is here (http://ifwiki.org/index.php/Jonathan_Grimshaw:_Space_Tourist). :)

I throw small animals at walls hard enough to destroy the walls in Crysis
Fallout 1, Childkiller title........cathartic release of stress buildup caused by crying toddlers on buses.
I did manage to scare the hell out of my friends once by cackling maniacally as I torched innocent civilians in Syndicate. :p
