Famous and important games that made you throw down the controller.

[Fightbulb]

Pussy. It is amazingly hard but when you get that lost ************ on the plane, the feeling is amazing. Just looking at your achievements and seeing Call of duty 4: Modern Warfare 1000G. Its great, to say the very, very least.

I think you're disregarding the fact that I don't give a fuck? It would have been nice to get 1000 points on the game, I'll admit that, but spending hours trying to get some more imaginationpoints isn't my ideal pastime, and that's coming from a dude with a gamerscore of 8000-something. If an achievement isn't the least bit fun to do, why should I bother?

Alone in the Dark [PC] - took 45 min. to install, 50 min. to piss me off with the worst camera and controls ever implemented in a console -> PC port, another 10 min. [!] to uninstall and hours to calm down and stop thinking about the money I've just wasted -.-

GoW [PC] - I stopped caring after 4-5h into the game...

fallout 3

Spoiler

you expect to fight with the colone in a brutal, long lasting fight to the death, you aim at him in V.A.T.S. and you see... that he goes down with 2 headshots, great bethesda, just a stupid ending to one of the best games evaRR

Spoiler

Or, you tell him to piss off, and he does.

Mario Party 6, as well as Smash Bros Brawl. Much bullshittery goes down in those games, and my controller has hit the floor many a time.

Halo 3, not so much yelling but definitely left me feeling empty inside...

A Link to the Past: God. Dammit. I. Hate. This. Game. Did people from the NES/SNES era have the reflexes and intelligence of super-humans?! It's boring too. I don't see what any of the fuss made over this game is about, it's boring as sin, it's difficult as sin, it's unfair with the puzzles and health. I just.. hate it, I'm sure it must have been the greatest thing ever after the first Zelda but it hasn't vyed well with me at all.

Majora's Mask too, some people say it's better than Ocarina of Time, but fuck it. It's not the 3 day cycle, I happen to love that, it's the fact that the bosses (apart from the one you have to chase) and dungeons and side-quests are fucking annoying, I found the Great Bay Temple more annoying than the Water Temple. And what the fuck is up with Ikana Canyon? But I'm just bitching now, I'm still going to complete it when I can be arsed. It had me throwing down the controller on more than one occasion.

Zelda: Ocarina of Time

After trudinging through the atrociously boring dungeons for 20 some-odd hours and pecking away at the ridiculously repetitive side quests. I threw the game in the trash can and never looked back.

How people, to this day, can have the gall to call this snoozefest "The Greatest Game Ever Made" still confuses and disturbs me.

If you actually enjoyed the Water Temple then you are a masochist of legendary proportions.

I enjoyed the music, and the Dark Link fight, and you fail.

Fallout 3 and Oblivion's ending was mentioned a few times already, and I have to agree, those endings let all the steam out of the game. It was for different reasons, though.

Oblivion's ending sucked because once the story ended the game fell sort of limp - there was nothing else going on. The actors were going through the motions, but there wasn't a compelling feeling of momentum anymore, everybody was pretty much standing there pointlessly. Immersion: broke.

Fallout 3's ending sucked because it was so forced and final. Throughout the rest of the game, there's a relatively good feeling of choice and challenge. Fallout 3, you're pretty much screwed no matter what you do, and the really annoying thing is they give you some good alternate solutions but those solutions refuse to work.

Spoiler

Fawkes and the ghoul Charon were highly resistant towards or immune to radiation. Lets assume it wasn't high enough: okay, we've still got the potential to have brought the robot Sergeant RL-3... it refuses. Have science or mechanical skill through the roof? Too bad, you're too still too stupid to jury-rig a solution. Even if you devised the one option you have to survive - send in Sarah - what's it matter? Game over. Period. Oh, and you're locked in.

That said, I don't really throw down my controller and say "fuck you" anymore. I haven't done that since I was 9 years old and broke my Commodore 64 computer's keyboard. Anger is the mindkiller!

in Metroid Prime fighting Meta Ridley. it took me more attempts to beat him than the Metroid Prime.

Trying to play halo 3 when every 2 seconds a jackal with a carbine kills you from across the map with one shot. Seriously, if you're going to require every level on legendary to be beaten to get all the GS, why make it impossible without 4 people?!

The bosses in gears one and two made me say "WTF". The first game was basically me and my friend hiding behind a barrier blink firing at him until he fell down. WHOOP DEE BLOODY RAY! The second game was about the same, except this time we got to use everyone favorite one hit kill weapon for a few minutes with no possible chance at dieing until you destroy your own city. Way to make a good ending huh?

The fable 2 ending was annoying. Why did my dog bother dieing if I'm a magic man who comes back to life more times then every patient on House combined? And then the boss fight consisted of, OH GOD! holding a small box which everyone has pretty much forgotten about by now and somehow it saves the day. No explanation needed. Then I shoot the man, which I could have done without going through all of the stupid farm missions.

A not-so-bad moment was in L4D when the tank punched me off of the hospital building as I was running to the helicopter. Thanks VALVe.

Trying to play crackdown when you realize that the only way to kill all the gang leaders is to spend 2 hours throwing grenades at their cars and shooting at them with your insanely weak guns.

Oh another Halo 3 WTF moment. When you're collecting skulls and the skull on "Storm" despawns before you even get into the area, or trying to navagate the orange blob that is cortana.

Mario Kart. Sometimes no matter how well you actually do, you can just get attacked by a blue shell just before the end and then all the other characters zoom past you without forgetting to bump into you so you can't get going again. That game really takes the piss sometimes.

The AI cheats in Mario Kart, and I swear that's the only game I will say that about.

Also, when Call of Duty 1 autosaves you right before you die. That happened to me SO many times.

Psychonauts is insanely awesome.
But the final boss is a pathetic wimp.

 

[Jalepeno Shogun]

Final boss guitar hero 3, and The endboss of prince of persia the two thrones

 

[Spooky_101]

Call of Duty 4
Ferris wheel level on veteran
I spent three hours trying to beat it
and just as I was walking into the chopper
my little brother got overexcited, jumped up, and kicked the xbox by accident
it reset and we lost
I threw the controller against the wall and broke the casing
My 14-year old brother actually started crying he felt so bad lol

 

[anNIALLator]

I probably threw the controller down playing something infuriating like Devil May Cry.

 

[Samurai Goomba]

Sands of Time. Horribly frustrating, stupid combat.

Gears 2, the moment I touched the multiplayer I saw the developers mistake.
they had two things to do
1) sort bugs
2) make features which drew people to previous multiplayer bigger and more bad ass
Then someone walked and said, I know lets combine them to make this easier.

Final product:
make bugs in previous multiplayer bigger and more bad ass.
