Ever feel like this game just hates you?

[Reaper69lol]

I sure do, isn't that right Team Fortress 2? So, ive been playing for over 170 hours or so, and still no hat drops, nope not a single one( yeah i know hats are not important blah blah) but, what really makes me mad is that, my friend, who has been playing tf2 for only 12 hours, grand total, gets 3 hats, in one week. Also, today, as I was complaining how I get barely any drops what so ever, my friend gets his second hat today.....I gues I just have shitty luck, but I sure as hell feel like the game goes out of its way to annoy me. Do you ever feel like this is happening to you?

Every fighting game hates the player.

Call of Duty: World at War on veteran.

Every fighting game hates the player.

Agreed.

Also Fire Emblem and Megaman ZERO both seem to have a unquenchable Hatred for the Player.

Civ 4.

They have: 1 unit of archers.

You will lose 4 swordsmen, 5 axemen, 2 catapults and 3 units of archers trying to turf them out of their bloody city.

Being a fellow participator in the hat collecting simulation we call TF2, I feel your pain.
I'm deeply sorry.

Anyway!
It's probably just because I never notice when they're not going for me, but any kind of killstreak vehicle in either Modern Warfare seems to get awfully chummy with me.
One of the reasons I only ever use the riot shield. I can tell the wankers are just waiting to be called in to gun me down once again, so now I stay prepared!

Starcraft's multiplayer portion acts like I wrecked it's car.

In Team Fortress 2, dying right before you can use an Ubercharge/Frontier Justice critstreak/Buff Banner.

I have a friend that, back when Halo Wars was still fun, was ALWAYS the #1 target of the AI. There was one map that was three concentric circles, and I would be in the center one with another friend in the second one and the friend in question on the outermost ring. The enemies would just truck by us both and take potshots at my Elites and my irrelevant friend's Marines and attack the outermost friend of which this post regards.

If you could understand that, then I salute you.

I did, and i have a friend who also attracts the AI, except the game is Red Alert 3. Funny as hell to hear him rant.

OT: Any game i insert into my 360. I swear when i play a game on a friends console, its moderate to easy, then when i insert the same game disk, on the same difficulty, it gets harder.

But specific games i would have to say:
Scott Pilgrim vs: the world: The game (the final boss being particularly so, for it always picks on me!)
Assassins Creed 2 (always a guard just out of sight XP)
Left 4 Dead 2 (in every way)
Halo 1,2,3,odst (and reach when it comes out) on legendary. (fuck snipers)
Dead Rising (difficulty curve)
and in general co op games, or games with co op in it. If you play with me, you should be safe XP

Napoleon: Total War. So many infantry bugs...

DK Country 2 hates the player with a passion. I was playing it yesterday. After finishing a cheap-as-hell boss battle I moved on to the next area, for those that don't know you have to finish the first 1 or 2 sections before you can save the game. I was left with only 2 lives after the boss battle and managed to get to the checkpoint of section 1 and then found myself in an almost neverending series of AI traps until I got slapped around the mouth with a 'Game Over' screen and pushed back to the last level of the country and found myself fighting the same boss all over again! I ragequit like a mothafucka! I'm gonna try it again tonight while listening to Disturbed and see if that fires me up!

Left 4 Dead 2 on Expert Realism, three tanks spawns on Dead Center in the streets. I didn't know it was possible to survive the first two, so I felt invincible... then we get to the safe house and another tank just pops out and ends my world. I hate it when the AI director decides to break itself and end you.

 

[jowo96]

Every game that has any randomly occuring events hates the player.

 

[MasterOfHisOwnDomain]

Dead Rising hates everyone. For starters, it has only one save file. Pursuing the story mode means that you will need to forego saving for several hours at a time as you run from location to location. I did this while on about two health, and my nerves were utterly shredded. The title music still scares me for that reason...

 

[Booze Zombie]

Sure, it feels like Mafia 2 hates me whenever I'm on low health and the cops are chasing me. They never miss with those damn Thompsons when I've got a slither of health left.

Train some damned spearmen! I swear to god, it works.

Starcraft 2, the last mission on brutal pretty clearly hates the player. Of course, any mission on "casual" also pretty clearly hates the player. Probably more than brutal. Just its a passive aggressive condescending hatred.

 

[Tomster595]

Not me, but when I was playing L4D2 with my friend, at one point all the specials sarted ignoring me and totally mauling my friend. He was Smokered, Charged, Spat on, Ridden by a jockey and pounced on all in about 15 seconds. And no we weren't playing any kind of mutation.
