Biggest, "I Call Shenanigans!" moment in a game?

[Dr. UBAR]

If anyone has played the last level of black, it is bull. There are shitloads of the most annoying enemies and the shotty dudes who take about 3 point blank shells to the face until they fall over, all with no cover. Also the level in that game where you have to run through a trench in the city whilst being sniped and having rockets crammed up your ass.

If anyone has played the last level of black

Damn you beat me to it. I know that room is the last area, I was on it in hard or medium a while ago and there was one person left who luckily rocketed me. Seeing that in 99/100 of repeated situations I would have killed him I consider myself to have completed the game.

I call shenanigans on that bloody level in C&C 3 Tiberian Sun as NOD where you're given a couple of units and a few engineers. There is one huge Scrin base with two Construction Yards, one small GDI base with CY and one heavily defended GDI base with a CY. You're expected to capture all 4 CY's without either team failing.

I'm all for difficulty, hell I despise it nowadays that games are getting easier but this level was ridiculous. Each attempt at the level played out differently, out of curiosity I left it several times to see which of the two sides were more powerful (killing the othert) to see which one to attack first but it was seemingly random which side won. I even looked up walkthroughs on the internet to see what their opinions about it were and they pointed out the random outcomes of each fight and even recommended that I save on a new slot for each save (every 5-10 minutes). This was due to the fact that I could potentially get to a point where it was physically impossible to carry on because one or the other side would fail meaning that to save myself an hour or so playing I could jump back 20 minutes and try again.

Flatout 2, all of it.

Its an amazing game, great graphics, awesome physics. But if u dont get a good start, you cant win. Most of the time, when you are winning. Somehow the computer will make you cock up at the last bend and you'll end up in the last positions.

Infuriating!

The point in games where you fight the ultimate badass guy halfway way though and your easyily creaming him till your told "Flee he is to powerful for you!" You then fight him again at the end of the game and cream him again. Knihgts of the old republic does this thoughout the entire series. repeatedly. Calo Nord, darth Malak, bastards.
Why cant i kill him now?

i know i was kicking malaks ass in the first one then bastila comes and ruines it the *****

Crysis multiplayer when dealing with Falcon Punchers and Sonic C4's. To translate:

Falcon Puncher: People who do nothing but rush at you in strength mode and spam the fist until you die and bunny hope in the process. it's so cheap because a lot of the time they cloak and stuff and spamming the punch button while up in your face is just plain annoying.

Sonic C4: People who pull out the C4, go into speed mode and whiz right past you while dropping the C4 at your feet. One of the biggest oh shi... moments and is really annoying...and funny...and annoying...and...well ok I still laugh my ass off when it happens to me but still annoying!!

I dunno - how about every single game where you defeat the ultimate "bad guy" in single combat mid way through the game only to have a cut scene showing your character showing your character somehow knocked down so there can be a dramatic story twist. Often, this results in the death/capture of a major character.

Shenanigans? I calls them on Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders. From the midst of an epic battle(mix of RTS and Hack 'n' Slash), some gigantic monster appears and begins sucking EVERYTHING - orcs, trolls, humans, catapults, what have you - into it, spawning miniature versions of itself.

oh yeah the encablossa scene from kuf was awesome

Fallout 3 Ending
Any FPS - you seem to obliterate a whole army by yourself but the leader is so Uberl33t that he take 200 times more damage to kill than anyone else

Well I call shenanigan on myself.

During a game of Soulcalibur 3 I was playing with my friend, I had little to no life left. After doing a guard shove I managed to hit him up into the air. But when he came back down his character, Seong Mi-Na, landed right on her head and seemed to be stuck there. I then proceed to preform an unblockable move for maximum damage and also ringed him out with the same attack.

i had a similar experiance on an old ps1 game called rock an sock em robots.
i was tin openner or something its the blue one with a pointy head(I havent been on it since i was 7) my step dad was the yellow bulldozer one i had barely any life left he was about too kill me and BAM! my robot rips him in half.
My step dad was just sat their mouth open and i was just literaly (excuse my text talk) LOLing (that is the correct term right?)

Getting mobbed by 3 of those damn bears in Fallout 3 at the same time.

 

[Sh4dowSpec]

Definitely the ending in Fallout 3. Complete and total crap.

 

[ChaosTheory3133]

I swear to God I'm going to pistol whip the next guy who says shenanigans!

Metal Gear Solid 2
Liquid Living through Ocelot's Arm.
...
shenanigans!

This was explained in MGS4. Liquid wasn't living in Ocelot's arm, he only thinks he does, mwahaha. Actually, now that I think of it, I call shenanigans on the entire MGS series.

Metal Gear Solid. Solid shenanigans since 1998.

I must've missed that, sad since I played through the game twice....

 

[pieeater911]

Far Cry 2 and it's randomly spawning gun-truck patrols every THREE damned minutes.

I get it, the country is at war and there are a bunch of angry people with guns who want to kill me because I've betrayed every faction in the game at least twice. Fair enough. But seriously, how many fucking trucks do these rag-tag militias have? I must have blown up at least a thousand of the damned things.

And Call of Duty 2's veteran mode. It's so damned hard.

German soldier- "Oh, I'm sorry, did you shoot me in the head? I should be dead you say? Damn, it sucks to be you then. Well, my friends and I are going to throw about twenty grenades at you at the same time since, in all fairness, you did shoot me in the fucking head."

Me- "I die!"

 

[sirchrissypoo]

For me, it's Assassin's Creed.

Spoiler

I call shenanigans on the game itself. It wasn't finished. I mean, it must have been sent out on accident. What studio would put out a game where they forgot to write an ending?

 

[peduncle]

This is a multi player shenanigans:

Halo 3
Sandtrap
one shot kills
magnum pistols only
no duel wield
just me and my friend

He was all the way as far as you can possibly be from me. he shot one blind bullet, and it killed me for the win. i punched him relentlessly for that over the next few days

 

[TOO S0BER]

In left 4 Dead: Openning a random closet door and there's a TANK! What makes it shenanigans is there's no music, no roaring, no foot thumps. Scared the shit out of me lol. That happened to my friend too XD

 

[TOO S0BER]

LOL. You think that is bad? Play COD 4 and get pistol sniped across backlot XD

Whoops. Meant to quote a guy, my bad

No, turns out he

Brainwashed himself into adopting Liquids personality because he was in love with Big Boss and would try and bring him back to life, or protect him or something (I can't remember).
