"I hate when games do this... But ill let it slide :)"

[Z(ombie)fan]

When have you said that, or something similiar, to yourself in a game?

for me it was just now. I beat the end boss of ZSX2. it was AWESOME. however, it was BULLSHIT.
the fight itself is thirty+ enemies plus the DEVIL. in a CIRCLE OF FIRE. with... the generic normal boss theme ive heard 20 times so far in the game :/

the I kill him and the game pulls the bullshit up to fifty: he GROWS WING AND COMES RIGHT THE FUCK BACK.

but i didnt care because one: he grew goddamn WINGS and two: holy HELL is the new music playing awesome! and the when I one the end credits played "Zombie Nation". win. and I did this with a hurt neckkink in my neck too, boosting my ego +8.



now if that sounding like retarded fanboy gushing, like me explain: I hate it when I go "yea! I wo- GODDAMNIT" but this time i didn't care because of the high AWESOME value.

when have any of you saw something you hate when games do it but this time didnt care?

I give Bionic Commando a pass for being superbly hard only because in the end Hitler's head explodes and until Inglorious Basterds happened I'd never seen something like that on Hitler.

ZSX2. look it up.

or, because that will result in horribly inaccurate search past page 1 or so,

"Zombie Smashers X2"

the "x" confuses me...

its a cross between an RPG and a brawler ala river city ransom. the plot could be summed up as

"kill zombies" however there is much MUCH more than that... AKA I would put this master piece in my top five games of all time.

I hate playing games with whiny, emotionally-inept half-wits as heroes. I'll let it slide if the supporting characters are awesome. This is usually an issue with J-RPGs.

When you're playing zelda and you have a few rupees short of a full wallet. Then you open a chest and find a gold rupee worth 200 credits. However you only keep a few and the rest gets thrown away I guess?

Any sort of driving mission in a FPS.

Whats this? you leave the entire Republic Commando game in the dirt after its epic ending?

i let it slide because at least i got to play Republic Commando, still i will hunt you down Lucas Arts.

I hate when game studios go bankrupt or decide to leave right in the middle or at the end of two of the greatest game series of all time.

Oddworld and Legacy of Kain get let off because not only are they utterly amazing, but I could play them over and over and still enjoy myself.

The saboteur had a cliff hanger ending even though Pandemic knew it was getting shut down, I had some fun getting there though, so I let it slide

The whole "the first game was amazing in and of itself, so lets make another one to squeeze out some more money."

I didn't like the way Quake's final boss was just a floating skull which you could defeat in 3 hits. I didn't realise this at first and spent about half an hour trying to defeat the waves of enemies to see if that did anything useful. The rest of the game is pretty good, though.

Fetch quest near the ending to lengthen game time.
I know, I know, I've said this before.

It annoys me, but doesn't stop me from loving the crap out of Metroid Prime.
