Something you hate about a game you love...

Quake - the Shalrath & those bouncing blobs - These enemies always, ALWAYS ruined the game. The blobby things were impossible to hit at a distance, and they ate 60 percent of your health if they exploded near you - and since they were faster than sonic the hedgehog after 80 gallons of caffeine, killing them meant killing yourself unless you got a grenade in before they woke up. Then the damned Shalrath would unleash a ball that would chase you around and you couldn't shoot it. You had to make it hit a wall, but that was harder than it sounds since it could even go around corners - and I sometimes found myself running through half a level trying to shake one when I had 15 health.
Fable 3 is one of my favorite games..
I hate the leveling system....
Serisously.. I get the path to the throne thing, but leave it at that.. donøt bring lvls into it... I want a friggin menu.. that's the only menu I liked from the older games.. the lvling menu...

Final Fantasy IX. The Trances automatically activate whenever the bar's full, so if you're trying to build it up for a boos fight, one stray attack in a battle can undo half an hour's work.
Also, Mass Effect's inventory system. But that's kind of a given.

Beyond Good and Evil.
I can't get the last achievement in the HD remake, without starting over (AGAIN), because of the game locking out bits of the levels I need to get to.
I just want to take pictures of the animals! Why won't you let me?!?!

Er... this one related more to a series of games, but I hate how in the sequel for Tales of Symphonia, among other things, they replaced most of the first game's stellar vocal cast. Now, there are some good voices in the sequel, but I'm eternally miffed that I could have had Scott Menville and Johnny Yong Bosch, two of my all-time favorite voice actors, in the sequel to one of my all-time favorite RPGS!

That was so bad, I kind of blocked it out while writing my post. That's another thing I hated!Casual Shinji said:
Though I most often play with the Gangster outfit, so I don't even notice half the time.
World of Warcraft getting old for me. I really loved it for the (5? However long ago vanilla DM patch was) years I played it, but it's just so boring anymore I had to unsub and delete the 30gb folder.
Counter-Strike (1.6): you can pretty much only play through ESEA anymore

Bioshock: The final boss
Bulletstorm: Crappy bossfights
God of War: HADES
Mass Effect: The Mako driving sections
Mass Effect 2: PLANET SCANNING
Vanquish: Too short
Metro 2033: I really wanted to see different kinds of mutants (Also, No Demonic Kremlin like in the book!)
InFamous (2): The moral choice system
Transformers (2005): The useless Data-cons (Also the painfully easy final boss with Unicron)
Transformers War for Cybertron: Protecting Ratchet while he heals Omega Supreme
Dead Rising 2: The time limit
Just Cause 2: The voice acting (with the slight exception of Rico, but barely)
Half-Life 2: The friendly rebels near the end
Portal 2: Uhhh....The inbetween test chambers sections can drag on for a bit (nitpicking)
I could probably go on for every game I have so I'll just save you the trouble and cut off here

With RE4's HD re-release sitting on my HDD not being played at the moment, I can only lament as I've discovered just how bad the PS2/3 control setup is compared to RE5's. In fact, having played RE5 a hell of a lot, RE4 just feels so lacking in the gameplay and controls department.
The aiming and shooting feels tighter and it doesn't have the horrible tank controls that RE4 (and it's big brothers) had. That and the menu system is far superior in terms of both gameplay and atmosphere, with the realtime inventory making it much more intense to play, even if Africa wasn't the most atmospheric of places.
Re-playing RE4, as much as I love it, the tension disappears when I can pause to switch to my shotgun in seconds just in time to blast away the Ganado who's about to pitchfork me. I'd like to have seen the realtime menu in RE4, with the Merchant running a 'bank' for storing weapons.
Though I did really like RE5 and I can see many RE4 fans wanting to gut me for those suggestions.
2. Use GameCube control
3. Has laser
4. ????
5. Profit!

The cinemas in Dead Rising 2. They just feel cheesy.
Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2. The ball levels.
Gears of War 3 Sawed off.
Anything that isn't online on Mario Kart Wii.
That no one plays Lost Planet 2.
Tripping randomly in Super Smash Bros Brawl.
Dead Island scaling at points and that guns are shit compared to melee weapons. Also it isn't as polished as it could be.
Dynasty Warriors 7 not having a free play mode and Characters just not showing up in the story.

That one part in PoP: Sands of Time where you and Farah are on that elevator and the sand creatures keep spawning and trying to kill you both and she is so weak and won't move from her one spot and keeps taking aggro even though she has zero health and does such small amounts of damage that she's effectively useless. To my shame, I have never gotten past that stage. She just always dies on me, every time, and I hate her, and screw her, she sucks, she's useless, and if it didn't keep me from progressing I would dance on her corpse as it grew cold because Farah is such a burden. You know who was a good companion in a Prince of Persia game? Elika. At least she could do magic and lift me back up when I was about to fall to my death. I hate you so much, Farah. I hate you. You and your stupid elevator.
