"This is gonna suck" gaming moments

[DaMan1500]

Going through the last dungeon in Paper Mario:TTYD twice because the first time you didn't have enough fucking items to beat the last boss. Remember those fucking Ultra Shrooms, man!

Either that, or getting past a freakishly hard section of Halo in legendary mode while playing co-op, only to have your "friend" bash your skull in with an assult rifle from the back and then stick his nuts in your face.

Bioshock, near the beginning.

Talking to the guy through the door. Shutter locks. Doors lock. Rose petals fall from veiling.

"Jesus loves me, this I know..."

Back into corner clutching shotgun while pissing self.

Dear God... Jehovahs!

In Ocarina of Time when you discovered the Water Temple.

EDIT: Or any game's water level, for that matter. lol.

Whenever I paused the game to change my fucking boots, part of my soul died. And don't get me started on Shadow Link.

I first fought the zombie police runners in Mirror's Edge I just knew they were going to being an complete pain in my ass.

"Zombie Police Runners"?

And they are the most fun to work with, because if you actually fight them,

YOU

ARE

DOING

IT

AAAALLLLLLL

WRONG!

You're meant to RUN AWAY from them.

All the infected producing machineguns in Resident Evil 5. "Well this is going to suck" applying to both gameplay and design. Not only was Resident Evil turned into Gears of War, but it asked me to squelch a rebellion. Lord, I'm ashamed.

The final Finale event of Left 4 Dead 2 on expert. Nuff said.

 

[coldshadow]

When your last one alive in Left 4 Dead and a tank comes...

If you've played Demon's Souls, these moments make up about 90% of the experience.

Specifically, though? Burned to death in Boletaria on the bridge by Mr. Fire-breathing dragon from Hell.

Chrono Trigger, which I started playing only recently.

Lucca: "Hey Chrono! Try my new teleporter!"

Me: "OH GOD! No! NO! Not a teleporter! Oh great, I'm gonna step on this thing, it's gonna send me straight to ZEN, there'll be headcrabs all over the damn place and I'm gonna spend the WHOLE DAMN GAME trying to clean them up!"

Chrono: *steps in* *teleports successfully*

Me: "Hot damn! No headcrabs!"

Marle: *steps in* "Weeeeeeeee--heywait--" *ZAP!*

Me: "... what was that?"

Marle: "Ohcrap! Now I'm thinking with portaaaaaaaaals--*bing*"

Me: "... Headcrabs."

*goes in after her, finds self in the past*

Me: "Well, this place doesn't look so ba--AGH! *gets surrounded by blue goblins* GARLIC JUNIOR! No! Now I've got to put up with a whole SAGA of filler before I can deal with the FRIGGING HEAD-CRABS!"

... And so on.

Yeah, this game just keeps TRAUMATIZING me every time I pick up the DS. By the time I encounter the GIANT SPACE-FLEA known as Lavos I'm sure I'm going to have night-terrors for weeks.

You, sir, need to see a psychiatrist! Chrono Trigger came out before Half-Life or Portal. It was around the same time as DBZ, though. In fact, Akira Toriyama, the creator of DBZ, did the character design for the game. That's beside the point, though. The point is, judging by your post, it's your own fault for being traumatized by Chrono Trigger. Who else would think of headcrabs while playing a Square RPG? This is the first time I've ever heard of someone being traumatized by Chrono Trigger. I'm not trying to insult you or anything. It's just weird to me that someone would freak out at playing one of the most beloved RPGs of all time.

By the way, I think Chrono Trigger is awesome. Your post reminded me of Unskippable, which is also awesome

Halo: ODST. Firefight mode.

"Tough Luck and Catch: ON!"

 

[sgwee]

um, hello?? Bioshock, only 1 other persons mentioned that game, try when you first see the shotgun, all beautiful and spotlit, no one around, you just know somethings going to happen... and then... Lights go out! You hear shuffling of feet and voices all around you as you circle around not knowing where anyone is! just 1 of the main this is going to suck moments of bioshock

In general, any zombie game were the zombies start shooting back. That and realizing I'm the last one alive in TF2 arena and I'm badly outnumbered.

 

[Zeromaeus]

When I turned on I Wanna Be the Guy...
That really sucks...

Also the first time you play FFXII and you attack teh dinosaur...
'Cuz everyone attacks it the first time...
Fear is instilled...

Jabberwock in American McGee's Alice.

I walked in and saw him pacing in the burning house and just thought...

"Well fuck. Looks like I'm boned." That fight consisted of me running around being shot by lasers.

 

[ffxfriek]

Yunalesca's final form in FFX

This, but that entire battle and any battle with Seymour.
Damn Seymour and his refusal to be sent.

The wedding battle sucked too (the big dragon thing)

ALSO getting Bahaumet sucked majorly too. MAJOR PAIN in butt...

When gaming through either design or your own stupidity have you come to a situation within the game which you just knew was going to suck.

One of mine is while searching for my dad in Fallout 3 I wondered into the middle of a quarry full of raiders by mistake. Upon realising what I had done I ran behind a wall in the corner of said quarry. Getting out of that situation was a right barrel of laughs.

I did the exact same thing.

Fatman saved me.
