Im a half life player, and there are three enemies that drive me nuts. I'll give you a countdown.

3: Zombines: These damn things are annoying, they take so much ammo to kill, and god forbid you let one get close and he whips out a grenade, especially if you dont notice right away. Fighting them in tight spaces is difficult, especially when they sneak up on you, or there are lots of them.

2: Hunters: No matter how good you are, your likely to die to these things regularly when they travel in groups. Their fletchettes are very difficult to avoid, and ducking into a house wont help because these bastards travel through houses better than you do. Can't be too far from them, cant be too close to them, the middle ground is where your safest... relatively.

1: Combine Shock Troops: You know which ones I'm talking about. The occasional combine troop doesnt have a regular weapon, and for some reason is equipped with a shotgun. Not gunna knock his weapons choice cuz it seems to work for him. I fancy myself an excellent Half Life 2 player, but every now and then one of these guys shows up around a corner, even when im expecting it, and unloads two shotgun blasts into my chest, and kills me from full health.


Bioshock: I think the Rosie Big Daddies are the most annoying. At least with a Bouncer Big Daddy, you can avoid most of its attacks, and dance around it, it's melee only, but the Rosies have pinpoint accuracy on moving targets at long range, and at close range they clock you like a champ.

Civ 4: Tactical Nukes. Yeah I know, Civ 4 is a wierd game to bring into this, but I find that an AI with a handful of tactical nukes becomes nearly impossible to beat. Doesnt matter how many troops you build, how far you spread them out, the damn things are so cheap and easy to build, your army will be decimated.

Plants vs Zombies: Digger Zombies. You can build a frontload defense on Plants vs Zombies that kills gargantuan zombies before they even have a chance to crush a nut, but one digger zombie eats away all ur twin sunflowers and destroys you. They force you to tone down your front line in the hope to defend against the bastards

From the newly spawned Dragon Age, any enemy caster units. They always cheap you out with a trifecta of spells that result in the following states:

1) Unable to heal yourself or get healed
2) Unable to land any hit except crits and even those only do NORMAL damage
3) Unable to move/attack for something like ten seconds

That is just frickin' annoying. I mean, you might as well just hand out a free pass to your ass.

I hate the archers in AC2 when you only realize they are behind you once you're already half way up something rivalling the Empire State building.

junk titans
junk guardians

but above all scrap drones

the raxus prime missions on force unleashed piss me off so much, and whoever thought creating an enemy that can just drain your force powers needs their ass kicking

bullet sponge enemies. you know the type: tanks, absorb loads of damage and waste all your bullets...

hate em -.-

either that, or enemies that are almost impossible to hit.
Yeah, like those Ghoul Reavers in Fallout 3 (1 of the DLCs I think) - you pump hundreds of bullets into them and when they finally go down, what do you get? A bobby pin. Thanks.

The full armoured Police zombies in L4D2. Completely immotal if shot from the front, have to shoot them in the back to kill them. Usually not so bad, but in way too many situations I get one stuck in a tight space, and its impossible to spin him around or get behind him to finish him off, so you are stuck endlessly batting him against a wall until he finally gets you down.
"Those zombies have armor. I WANT ARMOR!"

You know what really sucks? When you are downed and a riot infected is beating you to death. You have no way to kill them since you can't spin them around and shoot them in the back.
I know! And they have an annoying tendency to get caught on the slightest bit of terrain, preventing you from spinning them! Doubly annoying as repeatedy hitting them into an object occasionally bugs them so they get a cheap hit in when they should be stunned.

Those damn armoured monsters!

I don't hate zombies themselves, I hate how much health each takes and how easily I've been overwhelmed by them (especially in the Convicts boss fight)
If you're having trouble with the Convicts boss fight, you should definitely get the Zombie Genocider achievement so you can unlock the Real Mega Buster. Makes the whole game that much easier.
They annoy me, but they were a good addition to the game.

Common Infected in L4d 1 + 2, it's not that they're hard to kill, It's just that they have some damn annoying tendencies

Hm, I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the Ghosts from Pacman.



Stupid little bastards. They weren't like most enemies nowadays where you've got more than one shot. One little touch, and it's all over.

I have developed a very powerful and passionate loathing of the Jackal Snipers in Halo 2/3/ODST. There's just something very annoying about their perfect aim and the difficulty of finding them that makes fighting them all the more loathsome. I've died so many times and had to respawn getting shot up every single time and let me tell you after the hundreth time of death you really develop a profound hatred for the Jackals.


Damn you.... damn you to hell!


Also I must mention my hatred of the Guardians from Dead Space, the Headcrabs from Half Life, the armored soldiers from the recent Turok game that can hit you at a hundred miles away instantly spotting you and shooting every shot into you with perfect accuracy with an SMG(!!) and those lambent Wretches from Gears of War. Also that kid with the sand power in the Naruto game, seriously an ideal hell for me would be video game featuring just those enemies.

God why did you have to remind me of them. I remember the urban levels in Halo 2 were flooded with these guys. Trying to beat them on Legendary was an exercise in frustration, since exposing just one inch of your body caused 5 different snipers to immediately shoot you before you could even turn around. It's not an exaggeration to say that those guys had pin point accuracy.

I hate the Brutes in Halo for this exact reason, they shouldn't require two-hundred bullets to kill when I can have a paperclip thrown at me and lose half my shield.

The space worms in the bonus challenges of Worms 2: Armageddon. Those levels were so fucking hard. You beat the entire game, all 30 levels of it, and then they throw those 5 bonus levels at you. You're at such a disadvantage, it's near impossible to beat them. After 6 months, I still haven't beaten all of them. The one I'm currently on contains 8 worms on the opposing side, with all of the weapons and extremely advanced AI at their disposal on top of a hill, and you, by yourself, at 75% health, with a few low-level weapons at the bottom of that hill.....*cry*.
