Somthing that angered you beyond reason(gaming related)

[Leon Wesker]

Anytime something like this happens:

You play a great RPG (Neverwinter Nights, Morrowind, etc) for, like, FOUR hours, FINALLY beating some horrendously irritating quest (Like the Stones quest in Bloodmoon. You know, where you have to find the stone, activate it, do some chore, find it AGAIN and activate it AGAIN? SIX TIMES?!) that you've been stuck on for DAYS, only to have your computer go "Oop! Nope. Success not for you. Crash." And your eyes get huge and all you can think is "Oh dear allmighty loving holy Christ, please tell me I saved"

Only guess what?

You didn't.

FSODs (frozen screen of death) in Phantasy Star Online. Especially since they seem to love me.

AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

Whoa, dude, chill out. So he didn't like KoToR 2. Pull back on the rabies, would you?

Trying to get the Ravenholm-with-nothing-but-gravity-gun achievment on HL2.
Every single boss fight in Lost Planet. Really, any game with stupidly difficult bosses. Any game with stupidly easy normal enemies and stupidly hard bosses.
There is this idiot chick in a robot armor suit thing. She has a rocket launcher. Rockets knock you over, and the amount of time it takes you to get up is only slightly shorter than the amount of time it takes for her to reload her rocket launcher and shoot another one.
So it goes like this:
Rocket, knocked over, get up, take about a step and a half, another rocket, get knocked over, get up, two steps repeat until death.
I hated that game.

CoD4, 10 kill streak (which is huge for me) and how do I die? Some idiot was teamkilling everyone.

Morrowind with the tribunal expansion I killed that Little spawn-of-satan wood elf(the one who hates you regardless if you gave him money or not) Got through most of the main quest and up to the forging of Trueflame. I gathered all of the pieces and talked to the dark elf smith who directs me to the orc who usually stood next to him. Unfortunately, I had killed that Orc much much earlier for his armor and he's not flagged as essential.

So basically I wased 20+hours on a doomed file. It took about an hour of running around looking for alternatives to the orc smith before i realized I was screwed. I was playing the xbox GotY edition so I couldn't use the console either.

Friend thinks it's funny to drop my PS2. Broken memory card = no more 40+ hrs of Disgaea 1 AND 2, no FFX-XII data, no Star Ocean, no SoulCalibur3, no Tales of Abyss, no more 50+ hrs of Kingdom Hearts 1 AND 2.

He is no longer my friend.

Honestly, all of that is kind of pathetic and not much of a reason to lose a friend

Anarchy Online too, I got up to level 150, I go away to NJ for thanksgiving come back and my guild disbanded. I was coleader type deal. I come back I didn't even have a single message in my inbox about it, people just quit.

I can't think of a boss fight in that game that wasn't like that. The freaking armadillo bug in the beginning did that to me until I died.

Civilization: Revolution's logic. A unit with several stat points lower will always attack you and always win despite your superior stats. World Leaders will go to war with you simply because you won't give them your shit. Someone will always, ALWAYS get a space travel victory before you can do anything else. ALWAYS. Rival kingdoms always attack you at the exact same time. Javelins and spears can destroy fighter planes. Enemies always spawn infinite units. Always. One enemy spy can and will destroy an entire spy ring. Rival world leaders will kidnap your settlers and think it's all cool and shit. Fuck Civilization...

Call of Duty 4 lag and dying because of it. Being shot in the foot and being killed by it. Martyrdom and random grenade deaths (because every asshole uses it). And worst of all, the Juggernaut/Martrydom or Juggernaut/Last Stand combo. For the man who knows he'll be shot, and killed, but won't work on actual dodging or strategy... God...

All those things send me into fits of rage. And often.

I'll never know the irritation of CoD4, since I don't have it nor plan to get it.

Civ:Rev. Hmm. Well, I saw the demo for it, and it doesn't seem like Civilizations because of the toony-ness it brings around and its user interface has the functionality of sewage. The advisors running around all the time drove me nuts, and I couldn't read anything because they were half-across the text. And, with all Civilization games, javelins do in fact beat tanks. I'll go back to Civ3 for a moment.

Fast-forward making your own world/conquering one in the game to war in the Modern Era (because there's no sense in doing it any other time).
So, you're unstoppable army of Modern Armour and Mech Infantry are spreading across your nemesis' nation like the plague on steroids-not having shot yet the fortifying bastards-and you FINALLY invade a city. To your surprise, he ACUTALLY BUILT TOW Infantry. Your tank quickly obliterates the puny resistance, coming out with naught a scratch. You assault the typical two-man defense, and to your surprise a Spearman stands guard. No problem, right?
Guess what? Spearman drops to one red bar and your tank dies.

Apparently five-centimeter Titanium-B armour plating can be punched through and the crew mauled and engine blown to smithereens by a lone soldier wielding a Stone-age bronze spear.

Go figure.

I feel your pain, especially the Juggernaut/Last stand combo, they are surely the perks of the devil. I don't mind Martyrdom so much because it is easily avoidable, but last stand sucks because even if you put them into last stand you don't 'get' the kill, and the 10 points are always stolen by a teamate.

mines oblivion related(i mention a secret item here so meh)

anyway i was getting the very very hard to find bow called hellscream hidden in the oblivion wastes (those who have it will know the time and patience needed to find the lair its in) i get to it and take it out of the container its in and save. BUT half way through the save my computer bluescreens. This currutpts my lvl 23 save file and i lose my helscream bow. I am prone to frustrations involving games i admit.. but i ALMOST destroyed my computer almost. Did i emntion i had knights of nine AND the Gates of madness expansion completed? That was a hell of a lot of gameplay. Dont play oblivion anymore. Also have a vendetta on my computer.


one word - juggamartyrnoob negative player review EVERYTIME. Im watching you juganoobs.

 

[minispike47]

Ive only got 5 agility orbs in crackdown left and I can't effing find them!

 

[PureChaos]

I was a big player of Phantasy Star Online Episode 1 & 2. i hade 4 characters that were all a high level (highest was 133, lowest was 90) and they all had really good stuff. one of my friends came down to stay for a while and he plays it as well so we played it on multiplayer. once we'd finished a level we saved and quit but as it was saving my mate turned off the console. the file became corrupted and had to be deleted. revenge will be sweet...

 

[Audemas]

Where to start.....

Let's start with something simple. You get an acheivement for turning on Soul Calibur 4. The second I saw that I wanted to kill. I mean I wanted to KILL. I wanted to see blood and veins in my teeth. And I started jumping up and down yelling, "Kill, kill, KILL!!!!!!"...... Ten points to whomever calls out that reference first.
Another: The entirety of Starfox Command. I seriously want to kick whomever decided Fox McCloud and gang were squirrels oin the junk.

All for now.

Would that reference be toward the Black Mages from Final Fantasy IX? But something that angered me is just people who team kill when someone is going for a kill streak.

 

[Kehan Wann]

yes team killing is very angering
