Combine Zombies. I fucking hate them. WHY DON'T YOU SHOVE THOSE GRENADES UP YOUR BUTTS, YOU ABOMINATIONS!? Seriously, fuck those things...
True, but at least you don't have to fight those things in order to progress with the story.LorisBoi said:
Bats. Goddamn Bats. [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GoddamnedBats] Including Zubats as people brought up. And those damn swarms from Prince of Persia!
More specifically, the Mind Flayer lookalikes in Demon's Souls. Ugh. Impossible, AND terrifying.
In fact, EVERYTHING in Demon's Souls!

Alas, an excellent point! They are the optional unfairness that must be added into all JRPGs by law! But not fighting all the enemies and levelling up as far as I can always feels like I'm leaving out some of the game that I paid good money to play. It's like ordering steak in a restaurant. Sure the steak is what it's all about, but leaving the peppercorn sauce seems like I'm missing out on the whole experience. I always take the optional bosses and monsters as a personal challenge to my manhood that if I don't ride in head on to meet them Hironobu Sakaguchi and Yoshinori Kitase are going to turn up at my house and chop my cock and balls off. I can't be doing with that, to be honest.scorptatious said:
Those flying, exploding bastards in Duke Nukem 3D, they take lots of damage to die and take big chucks of health away, the only way I could kill them is by sneaking up on them or hitting them from a distance. Just a few weeks ago I noticed it only took a few shotgun shells to kill them.
Speaking of things that took a while, there's that barrel from the Carnival zone in Sonic 3 took about 5 years until I could figure out what to do.

Props to you good sir/madam, pokemon rivals suck. (especially Gary). I liked Lucas (rival from Pokemon Diamond/Pearl) because he actually helped you toward the end of the game. However, you cannot ignore Gary Oak's girth. Unless you are Trainer Red. Trainer Red is the Chuck Norris equivalent of the pokemon universe.pretentiousname01 said:
I also hate those enemies that pop up when you try to jump across a ledge in a Megaman game. I hate them. Those jerks.
Stalkers in dead space 2 are over 9000 levels of ***** to fight. It's not even fun to kill them; I just get into a corner and hit them with the line gun when they charge.
Mages in Dragon Age Origins. They always use liek Crushing Prison, or Fireball, or Curse of Mortality. And it always kills me.
ANYTHING in Amnesia since you can't actually fight back, not even with a kick to the shin. Does this even count?
Garradors in RE4. I would want to get the hell away from them quickly but of course running alerts them to your location and then they start wagging their blades at you. That room after the clock tower where there were two of them flanked by zealots sends me into a cold sweat even thinking about it.
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say the stalkers in Dead Space 2.
Clever girls!
especially in the beginning when you have neither the mine gun nor decent stasis reserves.
The gunships in red faction are more annoying than anything; a single shot from the nano rifle is all it takes to dissolve a wing and cause them to hit the ground andland EXPLODE, but on a bad day (or if you're being shot to pieces) you can run through an entire clip of the stuff before you finally hit the wing.
Finally, I despise the scientist guy that replaces dogs in the pentagon zombies level of Black Ops.
Enjoying that pack-a-punched ray gun/thunder gun/spas-12? YOINK!
EDIT:
Guess it just depends on your outlook.

EDIT:
I actually don't mind fighting the horde, if only because the provide often much needed health pack, ammo and cash infusions for a fraction of the ammo and pain it would cost obtaining a similar amount from, oh, I don't know, slashers, or pukers, or pregnants, or maybe even stalkers...WanderFreak said:

THe Legion hit squad in New Vegas, they killed me so many times but got killed by a swarm of Cazadors.
Every enemy in Afro Samuri
The Hobbe summoners, Hollowman Summoners, and the Bandit captians in Fable 3. You can't fight them without being knocked out at least once.

My nightmares are haunted by my encounters with those guys. I can't block the spear... WHY can't I block the spear?!
My personal worst enemies would have to be any that stun lock and juggle you. Prototype comes to mind. That games goes from "ROFL this is too easy!" to "Omg, I'm getting molested by 12 hulking bad guys with 20 hit unblockable, uninteruptable combos! How the hell do I fight them?" Way to do introduce new enemies slowly. That's like teaching someone to fight by throwing them into a cage full of tigers.
Stupid game. inFamous was way better.
