Left 4 Dead 2.
I DO NOT find it amusing to have to sit out of a game for a full 10 minutes when some asshat manages to bowl me off a roof when I'm nowhere near them due to bullshitty hit detection (Charger's hit detection is some of the worst I've ever seen on both ends of the spectrum). Then have it happen to you in two consecutive versus games. I stopped playing for a good week.

I gave it up in January and went back to it out of curiosity this week to see if it would be fun again.Foggy_Fishburne said:
Nope.
Yet I feel compelled to get to level bloody 70. The AK was beastly for that few minutes I had it (why oh why did I prestige...)
Is Battlefield really that good? Is it fun to jump into lobbies on your own?
A-fucking-men. I think my main character's save time is hovering around the 250's.MiracleOfSound said:
I remember back when I first got Battlefield: Bad Company a few monthes ago.
So I spawn into a gam of Gold Rush (or whatever it's called). I was a defender, and I see that my team was doing very horribly. There's a helicopter pumping explosives in the air, and at least two tanks running around the base. Okay, so I spawn as a Demolition and start shooting at tanks. Then did I realize the flak gun, the stationary turrets, and msot other useful things had been destroyed.
So after dying several times, killing some infantry, and downing an unmanned tank, I see the most frustrating thing: of the ten-or-so of us, seven of us were Recon (snipers, for those who haven't played). I wonder if they realized that a sniper rifle isn't going to down a helicopter.
So I join a new game. Again I'm Demolition so I can use the shotgun and destroy some tanks that may be lurking. I'm running through and spot an enemy infantry running through. I shoot two shotgun blasts at the guy at a rather close range. The guy turns around, shoots a single shotgun blast and insta-kills me.
I joined Team Fortress 2 then, only to find my team was being spawn-killed by three Sentry Guns and several Demomen. Crap.

Sounds like most of my MW2 sessions. But I'm no good at that game so it doesnt bother me anymore. Now halo on the otehr hand. There are some days when I lose every dual. Everytime we both melee I die. Every time we both shoot each other with ARs or BRs, I die. It makes me crazy. I usually go positive in halo, but I accept that I will fail in MW2. I think I'd be better had I actually played MW1 online. I was not on live at the time.MiracleOfSound said:

Even if the randoms suck they're hilarious, especially wih ragdoll physics.
There's no powertrip quite like seeing three teammates get mowed down by four enemies, killing them with an LMG + grende + knife, then reviving all your teammates. You just feel so awesome.
ever played battlefield heroes? i can't get through a game cos i keep gettin kicked for lag. that was a fun day of rage
Beg my pardon for asking but what's his addiction?hazabaza1 said:
My worse day of gaming is when I did a 1 v 1 against this guy I should have beaten and he destroyed me.
When my older brother failed 2 classes my dad blamed video games. So he took our shiny new Playstaton games and promptly snapped all 3 of the games we had for it in half. Despite the fact that, those particular games were not owned by the brother in question.
One of the games in question was the original Resident Evil (mine!) which had only come out like two or three weeks prior and was very difficult to find at the time. I think I was 3/4 of the way thru the game too. And to this day, I never actually finished the game.

Finishing Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2. I played it, expecting more quiet, tense, game-stalking fun with more shiny things to point and click and instead got one of the stupidest story lines in human fucking history - and nothing else! That was IT! Nothing but bad single player story where cobra bites are a minor temporary inconveniences! You shoot down waves upon waves upon waves of FUCKING ELEPHANTS with tranq darts from the back of a Jeep! To top off this shitstorm, a sequel to a game based upon realism ended with a fucking BOSS FIGHT against, abso-fucking-lutely no joke, a fucking YETI. Yes, A FUCKING YETI! It throws rocks at you in a small circular winter wonderland arena while you pump 30-6 shells into it! Then your poorly accented British friend cites, via receiving a cell phone call, a chance at a SEQUEL in which you must help kill an "UNKILLABLE ANACONDA!" That's a fucking quote. Nearly an hero'd that day.
Unsurprisingly it was in Modern Warfare 2.
The following is NOT exaggerated...
Game 1
4 kill streak, yay! After those four kills the knife function literally stopped working. I would hear the knife sound, I would do the animation, but I either "missed" or got shot up by the victim who "happened" to notice me... Five million deaths, four kills...
Game 2
Get shot up by a dude within the first two seconds of a game SOLEY due to lag... No, really... It LAGGED and all of my bullets whizzed past him within two inches...
He gets a predator missile and drops it on my head as I spawn... Then one of his teammates gets a predator missle and drops it on the same place, where I had spawned AGAIN...
What comes next? Harrier strike! I get taken out by the initial bomb dropping as I switch to my stinger missle class, spawn, and the harrier is pre-aimed at me even though I spawned in a different place (for once) and shoots me dead... Spawn again only to have someone else shoot the damn thing down... HERE COMES THE PAVE LOW! It kills me, I shoot it with a stinger missile, it deploys flares, someone else shoots it, it dies, they get the points...
Six deaths, no kills... Quit...
Game 3
GROUND WAR ON SCRAPYARD!!! Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die. Spawn, die... 10 kills, 34 deaths...

Any day in which I (foolishly) decide to play Gears 2 online after 6PM.
The moment Americans start hosting, the lag becomes absolutely unbearable, culminating in what I like to call the 'shotgun putty' effect.
