Cheapest attack any video game enemy ever gave you?

[Booze Zombie]

You want HARD?! YOU WANT HARD?! Try taking on SETH in Street Fighter 4, bitches! That guy is the essence of cheap.

You manage enough skill to pummel the guy one time and his entire move set improves, he just kicks you around, does dragon punches and sonic booms.

What a dick. How dare he treat the might Bison like that!

Flying medusa heads on the original Castlevania for the NES.

For those that never played think of: Jumping trough moving platforms. Now add Medusa Heads flying right at you during the jumps.

Would like to repost this youtube video yet again and make every suggestion non-valid.

God yes, it's pretty much the whole reason I stopped playing that game.

Call Of Duty:WaW, an ass full grenades and a controller through the tv

One hit kill if the icon is on screen at all. I feel your pain. I'm happy they attempted to make grenades realistically powerful but it feels as if they were trying to showcase the games ability to render you being shredded into chunky salsa.

Left 4 Dead Witches.

Their knock-out one hit (or knock out dead hit if your a poor bastard playing expert), is so annoying, espsecially if your night plans didn't include getting ripped apart by an ugly girl in a bikini.

 

[RavingLibDem]

right, those all seem pretty hard, but i still say on Brawl on hard, or i imagine above that, Tabu's ring attack, it kills you pretty much one hit, and you can only avoid it if you roll 3 times at exactly the right poitn..

 

[LiL'Tic]

i would have to say the most anoying is that stupid beat down to lock them in place then one hit shotgun multiplayer trick in gears of war 2, it takes no skill but it gets ya every time, has made me turn the game off many a time

Not even that relealistic since people have survived grenade blasts at point-blank range before.

CoD4 helicopters annoyed the hell out of me. On the other hand, Martyrdom didnt. People throwing the grenades who have hours of practice when you only have a few hours of playing ever is way more annoying. But karma paid off and i got a double kill tossing a grenade over a building just to see how far the game let you throw them. I didnt even know enemies were their. And as i threw it my cousin commented how funny it would be if i killed someone.


Left 4 Dead-Tank-Punch off roof.

BG2- High level spellcasters seem to always have a chain contingancy. I encountered a Lich with a contengancy of Stone Skin (immunity to the next X hits), Protections from Evil, and a Spell Absorbtion (like stoneskin for spells).oSO while i was trying to break his invulnerability he stops time then casts the most powerful summon in the game (a berserk demon who ignored him because of his evil protections) and the most powerful AoE DoT in the game. Then im allowed a chance to hurt him.
Made worse in that you can get that type of triggered spell, but you fight so often you will use it in a few minutes and have to stop and sleep and recast it. Enemies dont have that problem in that they fight you once.

Well..... mine was somewhat self-inflicted. Four words: I stuck the ticker!

I hate when the director drops them somewhere completely unavoidable too. I've had them appear at the top of the ladder to the roof at the end of No Mercy: can't go around her and can't shoot her easily. Can't even fire from the ladder... cheeeeesy.

 

[the monopoly guy]

In Halo 3 in the level Cortana, when everything is going to hell in a handbasket. You know what my biggest enemy was? The damn wall (you know it's a great game when you don't need to worry about the invading aliens or zombies, you need to worry about the damn walls.). Anyway, a wall exploded and a pannel about the size of the hallway it was flying down, well, flew at me killing me instantly. I think the game was cheating.

JINPACHI MISHIMA IN TEKKEN HOW I HATE YOU SO MUCH!

Seriously, he's worse than "Alma" in Ninja Gaiden.

Halo 2 Legendary instant kill auto-aim Jackle snipers. That's a mouth full for a name.

Them too. They utterly ruined the experience on Legendary for me: I liked the hectic combat on Legendary/Heroic, not playing a memory game of "where did that one come from?"

 

[Sparcrypt]

In WoW last week against patchwerk. I'm a rogue, I was standing in stealth and hadn't done ANYTHING.

BOTH tanks attacked him, he completely ignored them, ran past them and 2 other melee DPS, over to me and one shot me.

Thanks patchy. Thanks.

Street Fighter 4- Seth and his teleporting bull and grabbing that kills me if grabbed 3 times in a row

I don't know. Seth is cheap but he isn't an SNK level boss. Zangief's piledriver and lariats just about out-prioritize everything Seth does and that makes him cake, pretty much. Even on harder difficulties.

Compare with KOF99 and Krizalid.

Yeah, it doesn't matter if you have continues, Krizalid will depress you even in his mid-boss form. That's the closest I've come to throwing my controller (and I'm a rather calm person. I never throw things.)
