Sonic Adventure 2-frustrating, disappointing and stupid. The trifecta from hell.
Technically, Sonic Adventure 2 came out for the Sega Dreamcast in the late '90's, so it's not from the "last" decade. The Gamecube game was just a classic Nintendo-style rehash.
Funnily enough, Adventure 2 is the one Sonic game I enjoyed. The fishing levels in Adventure 1 really shot the already stabbed, sick, and dying game in the nads.
I remember spending hours and hours throwing socks at the TV because Adventure 2 WAS infuriatingly merciless, but I kept coming back (I was twelve, okay? Everyone's an idiot at twelve). That game consumed my life (so to speak) for about a year and a half, at which point I got so good, there were several levels I could run through with my eyes shut. I actually found the Chao to be rather entertaining, as well, at least until I hit adolescence, which was when I realized I didn't want to play daddy/nursemaid to a bunch of moldy marshmallow-looking things.
