Far Cry 2 is my pick, two equally stupid alternate endings that you have to play twice to get. What's the point in alternate endings if they're esentially the same damn thing?

While it doesn't insult you directly, Earthworm Jim 2 insults almost every thread of your logic, even to the end, when the story-related characters (Jim, Psycrow, and Princess What's-her-name) turn into cows.

As for direct insults, almost every kill message in Unreal Championship 2 is insulting.
"Player just stepped on his own ripmine."

COD

"You were killed by a grenade. Avoid grenades" - Fucking right, like I wasn't trying that anyway when you dust my path with 6 grenades.

Also, monster hunter freedom unite. I was trying my hand at the jut-ku (THE FREAKIN KUT-KU I ASK!?) when it repeatedly takes me down, not giving me enough to time draw my weapon, heal, or even stop swearing. Then when it finally lets me up, I'm stunned. It's like it's trying to say "Look, we can stun you, even though most people would draw the line at not letting you up! Aren't we hilariously bastard-like?"

Oh i hate that so much, especially when it's during search and destroy and someone randomly lobs the grenade at you from across the map when the game starts
I think that COD4 is a good example of an insulting game, because it was probably the first FPS i'd ever played, and i couldn't find the MP5 at the training thing and all i heard for the next three minutes was
Soap! Equip your MP5!
Soap! Equip your MP5!
Soap! Equip your MP5!

The entire tutorial campaign of Fire Emblem 7. It's so insultingly easy even on hard mode and just tells you everything you already know (i.e. "Wil is an archer, so he uses bows" or some shit like that)

The melee the dog one is even worse. You only get like 0.1 seconds to press the damn button.

PRESS MOUSE ONE IN 5...4... CONGRATULATIONS WATCH THE GAME PLAY FOR YOU NOW.

Also, Batman: Arkham Asylum directly insults you when you die. Joker's face comes up and he makes witty, funny yet extremely infuriating remarks.

I think one of the ninja gaiden game called the easy difficulty "ninja dog" which is a little degrading to new players
You know that ninja dog is a dog trained like a police dog? It's not a nice way of saying "noob".

Besides, it's still hard as hell, despite the name.

The orignal Jak and Daxter did that to. In which Daxter would climb on you and basically make witty comments on your death.

Any game that threatens to bust you down to a lower difficulty for repeatly dying. If I wanted it on that difficulty I would have set it from the get go!

Mass Effect. The fact that there is a mechanic to climb up a small ledge/wall which is only utilized about 3 times in the whole game seems not only an insult to the player but the developers who had to put time and effort into such a pointless task.

Oh dear lord yes. CoD:World at War is especially annoying on Veteran. There are 4-5 grenades between you and anything else, and they expect you to get out of it somehow. I beat the 4 on Veteran with a lot less heartache than CoD:World at War. I eventually just gave up, because I didn't see the point in it anymore.

The worst for me was Onimusha 2. I was playing it on Normal difficulty. After about 2 hours of playing, I died. Then this onscreen back and forth happened:

Onimusha 2: Would you like to try the game on Easy?

Me: No.

Onimusha 2: Are you SURE you don't want to try the game on Easy?

I kid you not. Apparently the game has no respect for someone who lasts only a few hours without dying.
