What game makes you rage?

[Kouen]

Now were not talking any fanboy rage more general rage!

For me it has to be Super Meat Boy xD

The Insane Difficulty but addictive nature has me wearing and cursing xD

What about you folks what game makes you rage yet you cant stop playing it?

 

[NoseDigger]

For me it'd be Bad Company 2. It just gets to me.

 

[pyrosaw]

I Wanna Be The Guy, but that's a given. Also, the OP's avatar is very....nice.

 

[GodofCider]

Dawn of Mana for the ps2.

 

[TriggerHappyAngel]

Any online shooter, because people find it neccesary to Camp and Spawn Kill

 

[CowboyfromHell666]

Any COD game has caused me to rage like a madman
Hell, any game I play online does that

 

[Shockolate]

Starcraft 2.

No matter how much practicing, advice and casts I do/receive/watch, I can't seem to get any better than my bronze league failure.

And yet I play the damn thing every fricken day. Quite infuriating.

Assassin's Creed when i am right there and can get a clean kill and escape but some other guy just happens to be in just the right place and I'm just turned a tiny bit too far away from my target so I kill some other guy. Fucking drives me mad. Same problem in parkour chases.

VVVVVV. Overall, the difficulty is challenging but manageable; the difficulty curve seems to be a horizontal line about halfway up, with intermittent leaps to the stratosphere. At several points (Do as I say, not as I do, The Final Challenge, etc.) I wanted to throw my keyboard through my monitor.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Just Cause 2 on any difficulty above Normal.

I chose "Experienced" on my first run, and it pissed me off when tackling the military bases going for the 75% achievement. Ended up restarting on Normal after I finished the story on Experienced.

My recent rage game is Donkey Kong Country Return, I swear that the SNES game wasn't that hard and it doesn't help I was using a dodgy rechargeable wii battery when playing it (I didn't have any spare battery on me).
Another time was when I played GW in the PVP match. To no end I get anger easily when opponent insult me after my defeat.

 

[Spikkle]

IWBTG was deliciously infuriating, and while it took an unhealthy amount of time to finish the damn thing, looking back on it you really do get a profound sense of achievement from it.

On the other end of the scale, any RPG that uses the typical mechanics can be very frustrating, simply your character/party will tend to cruise along easily for the first half of the game, and then when the difficulty curve spikes, or you decide to switch party members (and they don't just all scale equally), there are only two options: GRIND or DIE. REPEATEDLY.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Warcraft 3 vs bots.

How the hell do they have army that fast? In less than five minutes they alrady have 3 lv 5 heroes and and army of fully upgraded units, not to mention capturing half the entire map. Damn bots always make me rage.

 

[TheLiham]

Halo: Reach

because I suck D':

 

[Sean0925]

The A.I on any fighting game ever.

 

[Nexoram]

This is inevitable, MW2 = Rage Machine. Put in 1 hour of gameplay and take back 2 hours of RAGE. Also like Nosedigger said, BFBC2 sometimes gets me the angrys.

 

[BRMXJzjsoawk321]

Almost all games have the potential to make me rage.

But at the top of the list is probably Left 4 Dead.

 

[oreopizza47]

Any game with blindly lucky AI that is normally incapable of coherent actions. Most prominent example in my mind is the WWE Smackdown vs. Raw games. I play a lot of multiplayer matches with my friend, and we were doing a Money in the Bank match in WWE: SvR 2007. All gigantic dudes; Big Daddy V, Undertaker, Kane, those sorts of guys, six man match. Less than 5 minutes into the match, Big Daddy V goes running up a ladder, hangs from the case, and wins with no opposition. What the hell? This is from a game that normally has AI incapable of hitting you more than twice in a row!

 

[KalosCast]

Counter-Strike, Team Fortress 2, Left4Dead, and DotA.

Sorry, I don't have time to pick apart the source code and gain a deep understanding of borderline exploits and every single pointless nuance and game engine quirk. I also haven't been playing the game for eight hours a day since it came out. I'm sorry that this leads you to believe that I'm a Farmville-loving casual, please stop raging at me.
