"Fuck this" moments

[Jamiemitsu]

Elder. Fucking. Wyrm.

Also, every FF boss in XIII with over a million health. It takes the piss, seriously...

I know what you mean, and even some of the regular enimes take too long to kill.

I had a wild moment the other day, and decided to start a save on my little brothers MW. (not MW2, mind you, god no.) The training thing advised I should try "hardened" difficulty. Great fun until I started controlling a marine storming a TV station and constantly dying due to FUCKING snipers and grenade spammers. Got past that, but found the exact same problem on the next part. "Fuck this", my words exactly.

The Police Chopper in The Darkness

when i was playing ET and a couple other atari games at a friend's house

i had heard E.T was a bad game but i had no clue of it's shittyness until i played it

 

[GaM Pancho]

Pretty much all of Resistance 2, no idea how I managed to crawl through

Oh, and trying to kill the Warden on the last part of Jacks' recruitment mission on Insanity, Miranda and Grunt both get peppered sharpish

 

[EBHughsThe1st]

The Africa level in Sonic Unleashed. Good god.

 

[Rewdalf]

Hm.
Modern Warfare Two, of course.
If I'm doing bad, I leave. Usually I play better later on.
But when the damn game starts glitching, when it makes up these crazy double standards, when shit doesn't go down the way it's supposed to...
Forget the stupid ass playerbase or having a bad day.
The worst thing ever is to press down on the right analog with a smile on your face, knowing you've finally gotton revenge on that damn sniper, watching your knife slash through the air and land right on the guys head, watch the sweet sweet blood spill all over the ground, take it out slowly, and then discover that the guy is completly unhurt as he turns around and gently gives you a paper cut as a giant middle finger flashes onto your screen...
I swear, the failure rate on the knife in Call of Duty is about 50%. And I'm not talking about getting shot while knifing, or doing it too early... No, I'm talking about mid-dash slashing, and visualising the "+100" popup and playing the noise through your head at the exact time, but never getting to it...
Seriously.
After this happens, (Not once. Oh no, not once...) at least ten times, I say "fuck it" and leave the game, only to join a new one which works out from time to time...

Last but one fight in Batman: arkham asylum.

When I press Y to count I mean counter the damm attacker, not stand there like a fool batman while you get your ass kicked.

EDIT: Oh yeah and the favela on vet difficulty.
Seriously, spawn rape by RPG gets boring the 300th time it happens.

 

[MadMechanic]

I don't understand the Favela hate. Sure, its annoying, but I found it easy. Hell, its easier on Vet than it is on normal!
ModWar 2 - the DSM file transfer period in Loose Ends.
The Escape on Loose Ends. (Especially when you reach the end of the level, and the plot just does a huge "eff-you" moment anyway.)

DAO. Broodmother.

Recently though - on BC2. People camping at spawn points to knick or destroy vehicles.

Today, conquest, big open desert - 2 gits on the Russian side thought it'd be just hilarious to hide next to the base in the M28 Havok, and spawn destroy our AH-64. And when that got boring, our tanks... Its of no suprise that with no vehicles, and no spawn points other than the US deployment, we lost.

 

[Jfswift]

Oh yea, there was one moment and i'm sure my neighbors heard me that night. I waited to play Metal Gear Solid 4 until I knew I would have two solid days with no distractions from anyone. I fully intended to beat it in one sitting (and I succeeded) but damn that fight against Vamp where you had to stick the needle in his neck. I couldn't get the timing right, I was seriously getting pissed off having to redo that same stupid battle over and over.

 

[Video Gone]

Absolutely adoring MGS4:TEA:GOTP:ACRONYM, finishing it numerous times, then deciding "Hey, let's play Metal Gear Online! I'm fairly confident it'll contain at least some people who'll play in the spirit of MGS!"
Metal Gear Online my ass. People think they're playing Gears of Halo: Modern Company or some other throwing together of shooters that aren't about sneaking action.

 

[aww yea]

that colossus in soulcalibur on the hardest setting

first of sophita and cassandra are fucking HARD to fight

and then this big ass statue steps on you once you finally grab that shimmer glimmer of hopeful victory!

however after the fuck-this i said fuck that and decided not to give up and now who's laughing (its me by the way)

I knew I forgot to add something...
If you can see yourself killing your killer on the killcam, then there is a spawn problem...
I like how you said "completely broken" because it's completely true...
One more kill for Harriers, guess what? That guy you just killed respawned and took one step around a corner to shoot you in the back...
"Fuck this"...

I was playing Pokemon Red a while back, and the fucking save wouldn't work. I would save it at a point in the game and BAM. Lost everything. Even when I had a Lvl 78 Charizard at the fucking Water Temple.

Given, this was awhile back.

Cartridge-based save-systems have a battery that allows them to save. Once that battery goes you are unable to save, and your previous save games get wiped. You can get Nintendo to install a new battery though. For a fee.

 

[GreatVladmir]

Have you tried staying back and have your teammates finish up the problem?

Yeah, they just seem to get mowed down like wheat vs. a sycthe

Thats easy do no fighting in the war room on veteran...

you have 10 minutes GO!

Don't remind me of that bloody level, I know I've got to do it....eventually

Well...I kinda got rid of it during a secret Santa contest. But it's good to know that i have that option.
