I Wanna be the Guy. It's the kind of game that makes you say: "FUCKING HELL! Ok one more try and then I'm done! What the hell was that? I died so fast! Ok one more try. Damn it! Ok I mean it this time, it's really the last try. FUCK!" Yeah, good times.
I too feel this way with modern warfare 2. online play gets frustrating as hell half the time especially with the lag, but all was forgiven last night when i went 30-2 with a 26-kill killstreak n free for all. damn that felt good and means i might stick around long enough for my first prestige.
I completely agree with this statement/rant. I seem to have horrible luck, because at the worst possible moments, my guy's hit% doesn't seem to matter. I remember one time where I had a sword fighter (Eliwood) taking on the arena.Gigaguy64 said:
Well, he went up against some axe guy who had a 1% chance to hit and, for some reason, like a 2% chance to crit. Eliwood had a 98% chance to hit. Gets to the point where Eliwood just needs to hit the guy one more time before he's dead. HE MISSES!! Then the axe guy amazingly CRITS, and kills him in one hit.
I had spent a good bit of time in the arena (Hours!) trying to lvl him and a few others up too...
Oh well, guess I'll just have to START OVER!!!
Call of Duty: World at War is most annoy game I've ever played. The Japaneses threw way to many grenades and the Russians made me fight the whole war by myself.
ps. I played it on Veteran

I'm addicted to fighting games, but I admit they can be frustrating at times.imahobbit4062 said:
The thing is that with some of them, like "Marvel Vs. Capcom 2" or "Guilty Gear" the attitude seemed to more or less be that if everything is broken, nothing is. Though I suppose that *IS* part of the charm of having a deep fighting game with that many characters.
Generally speaking I think the biggest problem with the genere typically comes down to "combo systems". I've found that especially when it comes to multiplayer games fast characters and/or ones with relatively easy to pull off combos or ranged attacks tend to wind up dominating, and being overplayed by everyone. It also tends to turn a lot of the matches into who can start stringing combos first, and while tides CAN change it happens a lot less often than I think should be possible.
Also while I can understand wanting to make things challenging, I find the idea of cheap final bosses in single player to be retarded. A final boss should be challenging, but in too many cases it seems like you worked on gaining skill with the game's fighting mechanics to confront an enemy that doesn't conform to the rest of the rules of the game, making everything else irrelevent. As a result you have to sort of approach it from the perspective of figuring out what kind of counter-intuitive gimmick your supposed to be using... well either that or luck in some cases.
Ironically I'm a fighting game fan, but at the same time seem to agree with you.
Oddly I'm not too into brawlers though I do play them occasionally.
Anything Megaman. I've gotten much, much better at them, but I used to spend hours learning a bosses ins and outs. It pissed me off so much, but I kept at it until I was a pro.
The FUCKING shark from FUCKING Viewtiful Joe in the FUCKING boss marathon at the end of the FUCKING game.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!

I think we all have, that's part of being a "gamer".Old Hat said:
As odd as it sounds, most of my experiences along those lines have probably come from Roguelikes. In a lot of them if your character dies he disappears and his death location gets saved in a "Bones" file so your NEXT character can potentially recovery his corpse and gear. These games however can be fairly random, so it's possible to build up a really amazing character with some rare gear, get really deep into the dungeon, and then die from something stupid even if you understand the mechanics of the game in question fairly well.
It's also why I don't generally play many games that involve a hardcore "permadeath" mode when they are any more involved than a Roguelike. I mean I'm not going to put 40 hours into a character and then lose it forever due to something that might be beyond my control. As a result I avoid such functions when present in Isometric hack-fest action RPGs.
This conversation however reminds me that for some reason something (other games, lack of time) always prevents me from getting back to Demon's Souls, which I've hardly scratched. Now that's one that has annoyed me in the past.
Oh and of course Shin Megami Tensei games, I love them, play tons of them when released, but have learned to fear the spell "MUDO" (surprise attack, monsters cast death, they score the 1% chance of success and your not currently loaded with death immune! Have fun back at the save point, minus 3 hours of progress... muhwahahahaha).

Look it up, play it and wonder how the random drop system seems to know how to screw you over every time.
You'll keep playing though, you want to set a record your friends can't beat afterall
