Most Pain in the ass thing in a video game

[TheeGoatPig]

Red Faction was full of those moments. The pit of doom, the bomb-timer puzzle at the end, the half-assed stealth mission, the half-assed escort mission…

I really hated Red Faction…

[Angdraug]

GTFO Red Faction was awesome! Or it would’ve been if I just had remembered to properly save. Once I used a quick save just as a rail gun slug penetrated few walls and me. I think it cost me a better part of an hour to replay it.

Diablo 2 - Barbarian. Whirlwind. Oblivion Mages. Iron Maiden curse. FFFFFFUUUUUUU– Also, the undead exploding flayers in Act III.

I cant down on Diablo 2… I actually liked the game. D3 is going to be obsurd.

Assassin’s Creed - The part near the very end of the game when you literally had to fight over twenty templars to kill that bald fuck. I ended up spending 60% of that fight running in circles, waiting for my sync bar to go over three blocks. But then the ending comes allright, and then you decide to replay it, and then OH GOD THESE CUTSCENES ARE UNSKIPPABLE WHAT IS THIS I DON’T EVEN

Better yet… you’re a big bad ass assassin. There isnt anything you cant kill or do.
Well… except swim… oh and get away from drunk retarded guys that seems to ONLY FUCK WITH YOU. Which, obviously if you push back that means your a bad guy. Disregard the fact that the fucker hit you first. NO! I dont care that hes drunk or retarded. KEEP HIM ON A LEASH AND AWAY FROM ME OR I SWEAR TO GO-

Dead Space - The Hunter on Impossible difficulty. I’m currently stuck on the part when you’re in a small room you can’t escape from, with him, and about 4 Female (acid spitting) Slashers. And a couple of Lurkers (babies) too. One hit from the Hunter brings you to one health bar, two acid spits in your face and you’re a goner, shit’s a clusterfuck and you don’t even have time to turn back and shoot from running for your life, let alone figure out how the hell you’re supposed to get out. GOOD TIMES!

Dead Space is stuck as one of my favorite games. Cant get enough of it.

Devil May Cry 4 - “Jumping puzzles - fine. Timed jumping puzzles - fair enough. Timed jumping puzzles with fixed cameras - now we’ve dropped into the ocean of shittiness. But then they hit us with timed jumping puzzle with a fixed camera where enemies spawn in every time you fail, and now the ocean of shittiness has closed in over our heads with no rescue boat insides.” - Yahtzee

We dont speak about this game, or those before it. Save for DMC1. Fuck. This. Game.

While Im at it, we dont talk about the Force Unleashed horseshit of a game either.

How about the fact, that the guns are mirrored and everything is on the wrong side of the gun? Unless of course you play it as a lefty. (Is this even possible any more? It has been a really long time since I played it.) Curse you lazy modellers! >

edit: PS. Or are you calling that a minor issue?

It is not because the modelers were lazy, the weapons are mirrored the way they are because in the original CS beta the modeler, (whatever his name was, the co-founder) was left handed, and thus made the weapons fit the left handed.
And then they decided to keep it for some reason.

Any Mario game, driving all over the place in Far Cry 2, and grinding in WoW.

[intooblivion]

Actually if you were cool in far cry 2 you took a bus.

[Someonerandm]

Even with a bus, you still had to drive a lot.

I know they were on the left hand side first. That’s when I first played it. I just didn’t know why. I always assumed it was because that way you could see the bolt moving and it would look cooler.

But I still blame the lazy modelers. They should’ve made new ones for right handed configuration. :meh:

Why? They’re all good games: DMC1 is third best only.
