Bullshit!

[Blatherscythe]

Bullshit, a word we use when something unfair happens in a game, like one hit kills, glitches that destroy a shit load of progress etc. What is the biggest load of bullshit you've ever encountered in a videogame? A recent one for me would be in GTA 4 where you chase Peggorino in a helicopter, he shoots 10+ rockets at me one is about to miss and curves down to hit me. I believe this is the one that only damges the helicopter so you need to quickly land to continue to chase Peggorino. As it turns out that rocket came to early and I crash into the sea, leading me to raise my voice and say bullshit! So one glitch where the rocket came early and I have a long mission to redo, let's face it, I pretty much finished that mission. Peggorino is a pathedic boss, he has a bullet proof vest and a desert eagle.

Now whoever comes up with the worst way a game has pulled a load of bullshit on you get's this sticker to put on their game box.

I destroyed a banshee in a Halo match, and it killed 3 of my teammates, causing us to lose the game.
It was in a competitive tourney too. >_>

Very tempted to say painkiller from MW2. I can't count the times I've either been commando lunged or grenade launcher'd by someone with painkiller on.

I was playing Red Dead Redemption and I killed a bear. I get off of my horse to skin it and Another bear appears so I kill it too (Dead Eye FTW). This happens over and over until I;ve killed about 12 bears (Not a made up number. I actually killed around 12) so I look around and see no bears in sight then I start skinning bears. The instant I finished skinning ONE bear another hits me from behind and I die. Fucking. Bullshit.

The secret super boss in Bayonetta. "No, I've beatin' the final boss. I can do fairly well with that. It can't be that bad." The bastard has the move set of the second final boss, but is faster, stronger, more health, does more damage, and can waste away your entire health bar with only 2-4 combos of attacks. You have to run around, dodge attacks, and dish out minimal damage to the bastard through 5 whole bars of health.

Then you get him down to 75% of his final health bar. That's when he pulls out his super move; one that he's used before. "No, I've taken that before. I can dodge it. I can win this time!"

Instead of only connecting if you're close to him, this attack hits you no matter where you are instantly connecting. The first incarnation of this attack is a 2-hit kill - if you're hit, it takes you into one-hit territory, and if you're hit by anything again you die. This incarnation? Instant kill, no matter how much health you have left.

Fucking bullshit!

Ya, this happened to me many times. I get the feeling that the bears in 1913 have hive mind.

The fallout 3 ending. I just wanted fresh non-radioactive water dammit! It's the only thing that works when you can't fast travel and you're out of food.

 

[Zeromaeus]

I can't think of anything to say other than being unable to kill Ocelot in MGS3. I tried many times. Every chance I got.

BTW, I love that show...

Probably used to use said word a lot in relation to MW2, but I've since ceased to play it.

Now it rears its ugly head mainly in FIFA 10 clubs. for those who don't know, in FIFA you can create your own team, get your friends to join (maximum of 10 in one match) and you all choose individual positions to play: striker, midfielder, etc, everywhere but the keeper. Anywho...

It suffers from a serious case of bullshit-itis. You can be comfortably winning a game up to about, say, 70 minutes. all of a sudden, the other team gets an equaliser. Usually with us it's some fluky goal, bouncing off every player until it falls to the other team, or the fact that our goalkeeper is shorter than 5 foot. Once they get the one goal, all of a sudden they turn into a machine, blocking every pass we try to make, always intercepting the ball, and scoring another 4 or 5 goals in the 2 remaining minutes.

The computer actually seems to assist the team, some sort of built in momentum. Once you score, it's so much easier to score again, but if you don't the same applies to the other team.

There is an infinite spawning glitch in that game. Not sure what triggers it but if you move away from the area and then come right back the glitch should clear and you can skin the animals.

Borderlands ending

Okay seriously I once was in a mission in Saints row two where you have to wait for FUCKING EVER for Shaundi to get some traffic info from the police station. I go to escape in the helicopter and I just entered the helicopter and I get blown up by the attack chopper.

 

[Rakkana]

When liberty prime was destroyed in Fallout 3 Brotherhood of steel expansion.

I honestly thought it was a cruel joke made by the developers.

 

[Tagball]

My data in Final Fantasy VII was corrupted. Damn you Sephiroth and your bullshitty shittybutt file-deleting powers of destruction!

Also, damn you for killing a young, doe-eyed woman and

My hopes and dreams.

 

[V TheSystem V]

Red Dead Redemption.

Attempting to get the Barely Legal achievement, I went to Tall Trees, semi-auto shotgun in hand. Found two bears. Killed them, skinned them. After those two bears, more started coming. At one point I had four bears attacking me at one time. I was literally screaming in terror down the mic after ten bears had died. The eleventh struck me from behind, and mauled me to death.

That is what is known as the Bear Cavalry. They will not stop spawning until you are as dead as their brethren.

In Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 (and at least a couple more from the series) you can create objects in level creators that automatically give you the maximum amount of points in one trick (go too high and your game freezes). My friend and I have lovingly labeled these objects "Bullshits".

 

[Nigh Invulnerable]

I think the "mosh" section of "Raining Blood" in Guitar Hero 3 on Expert made me think this. Screw Slayer.

 

[Aiden_the-Joker1]

I was playing mass effect again recently. I played with auto save on and continued playing everything was fine until I died fighting matriarch Benezia, I wasn't really bothered by it until I realised that the game never auto saved in the past four hours I had to load it back to the last auto save that worked and do it all again.

 

[crudus]

Evil Genius. At some point in the game you can save the game at the wrong time (no warning when this is) and the game will corrupt your passed 5-7 saves(multiple saves don't help here. They get corrupted too) pushing you back about 7-8 hours of gameplay. This happened twice in one run through. Fucking. Bullshit.

 

[Rylot]

My cousin was recently playing Stuntman and on the secret agent movie parts there is some serious bullshit. Floaty as hell driving physics coupled with random hit boxes had him screaming bullshit repeatedly.

 

[Carnagath]

My latest "bullshit" moment was in the Starcraft 2 beta in a 3vs3 insane AI. All 3 of us were good players and we got RAPED, it wasn't even close.
