What were you expecting, money?

Brandon The gameplay of Final Fantasy 8 in general. What a horrific experience.

Maybe you have to beat it on a harder difficulty.

I'm just talking out of my ass here, I haven't played it. I just know a couple of games where tis is the case.

Darko Half-Life: Going through the Xen Portal without saving before it and never grabbing the jetpack. I was so pissed I just gave up.

Back the the Future (NES): I wasted 5 bucks renting that piece of crap. It was literally impossible to beat the first level, according to Nintendo Power.

Beating KOTOR light side. What a weak ending. Same for Jedi Academy. At least when the series was about Kyle, the storyline was good.

Hmmmm.

Halo, playing the last level on legendary, running for the Pelican with my shields down from the turrets on the sides and all the elites that run out, with 1 bar of health left. I've got about 50 meters to go when an elite runs out and smashes me on the head.

Supafly345 The shop has whatever your latest shield was you know. So immediately after you held that shield it appears in the shop.

Comrade Rocket Any of the Zelda games, when you spent a long time getting to the middle of a dungeon, and just as you got as far as you ever have... you get grabbed by one of those hands. I FUCKING HATE THE GOD DAMN HANDS.

And while we are on the subject of Zelda i was playing Link to the Past. I got to this one dungeon and worked like a mofo to get the Mirror shield. I finally had all the good stuff when I go in this one dungeon and a Like Like eats me. I didnt know that it would eat my shield, so I ran away after i got loose from its grasp... only to realize about a half an hour later that i had lose the unreplacible shield.

slain In link's awakening the eagle level (i forgot) that fucking penguin that would uppercut you to the beginning of the dungeon, i got so pissed off i threw my GBC at the wall

Retro Man saving over my only final fantasy tactics game directly before going into a battle i was horribly outmatched in. it took me a week to figure out how to beat the guy (Elmdor) without starting all over.

Those are called Bandersnatch's, or as I call them, Mucus Monsters.

My worst moment in a video game is probably all those failed speed runs in Resident Evil and Metroid. Playing for nearly two hours without saving, only to die on the final boss. WTF.

Fighting game moment from HELL

My worst gaming moment can be summed up in one word:

GILL

Gill, the final boss in Street Fighter III, is the cheesiest bitch ever compiled. After parrying this, blocking that, and countering everything else, (when he's within an inch of his life) he decides he's done playing with me and throws his rainbow power super combo that obliterates whatever life I had. Or, upon delivering the final blow, his two-faced ass resurrects and completely fills his life bar. On level 8 difficulty, I winged my Dreamcast controller so hard, the cord severed allowing the controller to sail across the room into the (unlit) fireplace. It hasn't worked since.

ninja gaiden, kill three hard bosses in a row, if you fail, back to the last level. also the birds, theeee birrrrrrddsssssss

broken sword 2, the pyramid, if you dont use your one opertunity to throw the ammo belt onto the incence burner (which doesnt do anything) you are stuck

ProfessorCool One that i actually hit the console, when i was younger.

Wizards and Warriors, I was at the first part of the castle stage and it took a long while just to get up there. I was on one of the towers when Jumped and mistaken a shaded area of the castle for a platform, fell all the way down. Got pissed and kicked the NES which reseted the game. I yelled so loud my whole family came to my room.

AChimp Reaching the end of Half-Life and discovering that you've run out of ammo, then realizing there's no more on any of the remaining maps and the crowbar and bee gun can't save you.

Schimid Streets Of Rage.

"You've got potential! Would you like to join me in my crusade?"

___YES
___NO

If you pick yes, he sends you back to Level 6, and you still get the bad ending. Goddamnit.

Nemesis I never beat it with Hunk. I got to the save room full of zombies either a room or two before you make it outside. I was already limping before going in there, so I was lunch.
Dec 30th, 2003 01:33 AM
Supafly345 Just remembered another one:
TOFU: THE SURVIVOR
The seconed secret character of RE2 in which I had to play a full 12 hours of that game (after I finally got good at it) just to earn. I kept far away from this game untill after I beat the already insanely hard "Hunk: The 4th survivor" mission. Which was one hell of a task already even with the heavy artillary (and 2 herbs) he comes with. Room after room filled elbow-to-elbow with deadly enemies, and many times only a split seconed to act in time to avoid being lunch. And that was a major frustration in itself with it's crappy "End of one story, prelude to the another" ending (yes, it said "to the another).

Then here we come to that migrane of a secret TOFU. Which you have to go through Hunks hard as fuck mission as an hilarious block of tofu... with a knife. Why capcom decided to torture RE addicts like me with a reward this cruel is a mystery. But torture it did. I probably played more as that damn block of tofu than I did the main characters of the game, half of it I didn't even get halfway through it. But finally I managed to get through it, and I was rewarded well... with a peptic ulcer. It was the same damn ending as Hunk, and it looked even worse with a hunk of tofu with no arms or legs other than two floating hands. But, still I subjected myself to that tofu-ie goodness at least 2 more times to make sure it was skill and not luck that brought me there. Needless to say, no phrase can ever make my inner furnace of hate and anger burn hotter than "End of one story, prelude to the another."

Mr. Vagiclean Games don't USUALLY get me upset to the point of no return, but i distinctively remember the moment when i realized i was getting backstabbed by some no goodie-backstabbin fucks in a game of Starcraft: Brood war. Wow, that was a angst-ridden 5 minutes
Dec 29th, 2003 10:24 PM
soundtest Battletoads, Ghosts 'n Goblins are good ones... but mine's with Street Fighter III in the arcade. Not really an issue with the game itself, but painful nonetheless. Went to an arcade when I lived in Toronto with my friend's sister. All day I was bragging about how good I was in Street Fighter and how I'd put anybody to shame. So I step up to this dude at the machine, and the bastard parried EVERYTHING I had... he totally just played with me for half the first round, then after tiring of that ruined me quickly (almost perfect) both rounds. I was so shocked and impressed I'm like "daaamn! nice man" - but he just looks at me awkwardly for a second wondering why I said that as if he was daydreaming during the whole fight. COCKY COCKSUCKING FUCK BASTARD - I had a GIRL with me! At least let me win a round to save some face! She laughed her ass off at me for the rest of the day and kept calling me "Ryu, my hero!"

And I never played video games again.

DamnthatDavid Screw you Adam, you're the one to speak. With that wookie of a father that you have. You going to look like that one day.

Comrade Rocket all I had to do was press up and down. thats it? I FUCKING HATED SONIC 3 BECAUSE OF THAT ONE PART. I FUCKING HATED TAILS BECAUSE HE ALWAYS MADE IT HARD.

But my worst was when i was playing Robotech: battlecry I couldn't beat this one mission were you had to blow up these transports that had some kind of culture in them. It was almost impossible because the ships moved to fast and had to much power to be able to destroy one and move on to the next one. I had to get some codes. They made it so that your gun had one hit kills. It was fun for the next few missions until i got to this one mission were you have to try and disable your friend, but not kill him. I couldn't find the paper that had the code on it and everytime i used my gun, it would kill him. And it was a reletivly new game so there were no codes online. I swear i put that gun to my head, of course had it hit me anywere else i would kill me in one hit. I finally was able to beat him, but i had to use missles and it took for-fucking-ever.

You are supposed to use the Hookshot on the chest to cross the gap, but I found that out later. I instead somehow threw the metal ball across the gap, and it landed between a hole and the chest. Now, since the ball was blocking the chest, the Hookshot couldn't grab onto it and pull me over. On top of that, the ball never moves from its position back to where it originally came from, so the only thing I could do was completely restart my game.

I've never been more pissed off at a game before.
OMG, I know what you are talking about!! That happened to me, too, and I swear I threw my Gameboy (old ghetto gray) halfway across the room. I was so pissed!!!

David is a giant with uncontrollable rage to which he will damage nearby property with little or no care about its value. He also has intercourse with other creatures his size, such as the Yeti.
