Gears of War: That stupid vehicle segment with the Kryll. It seems like there's always some vehicle or turrent that you have to use in every first or third person shooter, and 70 percent of the time it's never any fun. It's just frustrating.

Darkwatch: That turrent sequence on the train. It wasn't anything like the awesome shooting parts where you ride the horse. Those were awesome. The turrent was just frustrating.

OoT: The Water Temple. Almost everyone hates the Water Temple.

Anyone else?

I really wish I could play ranked games with my friends list on Gears.  Yeah, boosters could exploit it, but it would be so much better than jumping into some game with a homeschooled 12 year old that plays this game all day and starts trash-talking when he gets kills.

I love the games.

I hate the princess.

That's one reason why Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda game -- she's only in it for one minute, and she actually does something helpful for once. :?

Tomb Raider (PS1 games):
   - I hated the grid system. Where it worked well most the time, sometimes it made jumps impossible when coupled with the camera.

Resident Evil Series:
   - Resident Evil Survivor and Dead Aim... why did they have to make them???

Battlefield 2 (PS2, Xbox)
   - The glitches in the online levels :?
   - The fact you're invincible for a second when you go prone. (Everyone that does it looks like an idiot.... [standing, prone, stand prone, stand prone etc etc etc] )

Well GeOW, I am completely sick of waiting in GeOW when you die, its so anoying... it takes SOOOOOOO long sometimes, really frustrating... because of this I think CSS is better then GeOW in MP, CSS has just more to do, you might wait, but it wont take that long most of the time.

Final Fantasy 7 - once leave midgar the part where you are doing a flashback with sephoroth is BORING

I hate the Alucard Shield/Shield Rod combo in Castlevania:SOTN. It is the cheapest thing ever, although you don't have to use it.

I agree, I HATE all "save the princess" crutches that are used in games. I mean, if she said "save me and I'll give you head" that would make sense, but no, it's just "save me cause I'm the princess".....why should I care.??....totally weak

It was too easy for an alien to simply murder one of your best operatives without you being able to do anything at all, if luck had it's way. You could just land, and if the roll came out badly, an alien with high initiative would have a grenade in your ship's bay before you could get your upgraded soldiers out the door.

That sucked especially because having a soldier survive a lot of encounters (while being active) was quite a feat in that game.

If you must know, I'm talking about X-Com, UFO defense.

In that 8-page CliffyB interview on IGN, he hints that there's new content and updates on the way for MP. Heavy hinting is given to new MP game types. Count me in on a variation of Warzone where you respawn and play for a set period of time. It would make the MP much more addictive.

Although the 2-D Mario games are amazing I hate the fact that the story always involves you saving the princess.

:) that brings back memories. I would always name the weak soldiers after my teachers and ex-girlfriends...... Definetly one of the best games of all time. It REALLY needs to be rereleased.

Indeed they do. A full-fledged PC game of today... with the storage space of today... no more generic cities/farms!

Imagine having to stop a threat in egypt and fighting in a cairo-like city, or a battle in a historical mexican town... that would define ownage.

I'm just bitter because last time I played that game, I had a soldier who was in the first sortie survive (despite being sent in all missions his squad was sent to (Except those when he was injuried, of course)... and then die in the first turn after entering the battle zone in mars...

Yeah, it kinda brought me to tears of anger and sadness combined.

The problem is, unless they just do a direct compatibility "port" they'll mess it up---trying to "make it 3D" or some other crap that will destroy the balance and essance of the game (IMO X-COM 1 + 2 were the only great ones)

In Halo CE: the second level, its just too long and drawn out and there isn't enough action. Whenever I try to play it I get bored half way through and start throwing myself off cliffs and beat down my teammates. :P
