Hmm...I can't really decide on a single favorite, so I'll list a few:
Super Mario Galaxy 2:
I found the final battle to be relatively anti-climatic. It would have been fine if the first Galaxy hadn't ended with:
I also hate the monkey's timed challenges....wow that sentence is weird out of context...even for a Nintendo game
Portal:
...
...
The only complaint I can think of is the wait for the sequel...
Resident Evil 4:
While certainly scarier than its sequel, the horror was pretty underwhelming in most parts (gets bonus points for the oven man though. Best jump scare ever). And the escort portions, of course.
Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords:
Loads of glitches and cut content.
Left 4 Dead 2:
I swear, the AI Director is Skynet, and the only reason it hasn't spawned time-traveling robot assassins is because it's too busy screwing over players.
Halo: Reach:
The spawning in matchmaking. I seem to spawn near/infront of opponents pretty often. Oh, and not being able to phase objects into vehicles...I wanted to make Mech combat levels!
Super Mario Galaxy 2:
I found the final battle to be relatively anti-climatic. It would have been fine if the first Galaxy hadn't ended with:
A duel--faughtinside the sun at the center of Boweser's new universe--that results in a giant black hole that nearly ends all life
Portal:

Persona 3. You can't choose what skills a new persona gets from fusion; they're picked randomly. So if you're trying to fuse a persona with a specific skill set in mind, you're at the mercy of the Random Number God.
Not entirely. If you play a stealth+archery character you can kill most monsters with one or two hits, essentially making you a sniper.Onyx Oblivion said:
My pet hate in Oblivion is the Mages Guild questline, it feels long and boring up until you become an apprentice and get access to the Arcane University, and once your there you can create a low-costing 100 damage drain health spell that, in my personal experiance, 1-shots everything up to Mehrunes Dagon.
It isn't my favorite game, but the worst part of the otherwise fantastic experience of Dragon Age was the damn Fade level. It was too time consuming and seemed just a little tacked on.
the games easy, legend of zelda MM, as for my least favourite part... its a toughie... a real toughie, i love all of this game so much! i guess it'll have to be that the spider houses are a little tricky without a guide
FF8's draw system. I won't elaborate you don't need to know. But I did say "Damn only 3 cure left" about 40 times.
About half-life2 The loss of a mechanic (antlion/resistance buddies,vehicle etc.)
Oh and the parts I always want to repeat are like 30 mins away from a checkpoint.
Otherwise good games both of 'em

Loading times in My Life As A King. Mostly due to the small size of the file. Its fine at the start but when your town is complete its laggy as all hell
The fact that your comrades in TIE Fighter are all complete and total retards. Seriously, how the fuck does an elite Imperial Star Fighter Pilot (a branch of military service that is canonically reserved for only the most elite to begin with, so to be considered an elite amongst them is saying something) in a fucking TIE DEFENDER (the probably the most powerful starfighter ever developed) get killed by an idiot in a Y-WING! What I'm trying to say is that the AI in TIE fighter was severely lacking.
Oh, the first was so much worse, in my opinion. "I Wanted to fill your dark soul with liiight! -cue in emotional cracking voice-" The ending of the first was so horrible too.Death God said:
But I think that's more of a running thing throughout Devil May Cry, the uber corny scenes. Devil May Cry 4 had its fair share as well. Devil May Cry 2 was a bit too broody to be corny lol.
I hope the new one sure isn't corny...
Oblivion: The motherfucking spells. And the psychic guards who instantly know where you are and what you've done no matter your sneak skill or level of invisibility.
Mass Effect: The main story had a tendency to drag along, feeling unnecessary in places (like where you
and where you
. Still a great game and very enjoyable, it just felt like it had some very unnecessary bits.
Mass Effect 2: The ammo system, planet-mining.
Dragon age Origins + awakening: I can not for the life of me put my fibnger on it, but something bothers me about it.
Baldur's gate 1 + 2: The overhead perspective - why couldn't it be more like NWN or DA:O? Everything else was motherfucking perfect.
Neverwinter nights: It felt...tedious - and yet, I desperately wanted to like it.
KOTOR 1 + 2: Unnecessary bits (or at least I felt so).
Assassin's Creed: The goddamn lepers/beggars/other street obstacle, and to some degree, the combat.
Bioshock: It didn't live up to the frankly MASSIVE hype, it's still a pretty decent game, but sweet jesus people.
Saint's Row 2: Much of the same problem as Bioshock, actually, plus GTA-clones are best suited for the pc in my humble opinion.
Halo 3: ....I dunno...? Some unnecessary bits, but otherwise a solid shooter.
Pure: Short, frustrating when you've been leading for 3 rounds straight and bam! one failed stunt and you're at the back of the pack.
Mirror's Edge: Short, not really a great story.
Dungeons and Dragons: Aside from 3.5 it's either way complicated(1st/2nd ed), broken (3.0) or every class is basically a wizard(4E). In 3.5, warriors are screwed around level 10 and up unless they take a prestige class, monks are seriously overpowered, wizards/sorcerers don't have enough AOE spells, ranger feels kinda useless and rogues are pretty frail.
MGS1 PC: Kinda clunky controls.
Overlord: in retrospect, a lot of it felt really fucking arbitrary and loosely connected.
GTA San Andreas: ...I got nothing, I'll even submit that it might be better than Saint's Row 2.
Most Mario Games: Those fucking pits where your only option is running, jumping, landing on an impossibly small bit of ground and then jumping to the other side. Needless to say, there's been a lot of pit-diving when I play mario...so easy to overshoot.
DOA4: The last boss in story mode, some ridiculously hard combos.
Ninja Gaiden(original xbox): ...Again, I got nothing.
Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Could get pretty stagnant after a while.
Smash Bros. Series: Nothing, it's almost perfect. Worst thing about it is tourneyfags - aka: NO ITEMS, FINAL DESTINATION, FOX ONLY!
Final Fantasy VIII: Drawing magic. Sweet Jesus. Junctioning was cool though.
Hydro Thunder: Some boats handled pretty badly.
...Huh, ended up doing pretty much my whole game library there

Fight the thorian

Ending on a cliff hanger and waiting possibly 11 years to continue the story only to release it on a handheld... If true...
Also alot of my favorite games are not long enough...

Kotor 2 ~ peragus
Oblivion ~ play doh faces and terrible voice acting
Fallout 3 ~ the decline in quirky fallout nature (in comparison to 1 and 2)
