Try The Shining Force. It's Fire Emblem, but with harder battles and the ability to resurrect dead people.vrbtny said:

I forgot one.. the endboss of Smashbro's Brawl.
He's a ****. There's no sweet talkin'. Beat 'em up game bosses are just designed to punch the screen.
Captcha: start from scratch.
Yessir!

Homefront. Gameplay is perfectly fine if a bit slapdash, but the more and more I heard the story I just wanted to deafen myself...and emigrate.
ME3 multiplayer, full stop.
I don't know which asshole thought it would be such a great idea to make you get zero points for an incomplete match/disconnect, and then make matches take over half an hour to complete. The wifi signal in my living room isn't the best, so I get random DCs all the time.
Of the first three matches I played (not counting the first, cause we got rolled) I DCed out of every single one, one of them with something like 30 seconds left on the clock. Zero rewards for the time spent playing.
Yeah, you know that's never getting picked up again.

Thanks i was just about to start the dlc, so press the right button before pressing any of the others?Azuaron said:
The Metal Gear Solid games seriously piss me off sometimes. Soldiers spotting you at ridiculous angles, people seemingly appearing out of mid air, being certain you tranq'd a guy in the head (I checked, the needle was there!) and setting off an alert.
I love the series, but damn is it infuriating at times.

Add the Total War series in its entirety. Especially Empire: Total War. An Excel spreadsheet would be more fun, lenient and engaging. I lose matches and I have no fucking idea why, I WIN and I have no fucking idea why.
It's like Creative Assembly's core devs look at quarterly reports and other math-heavy documents where others might look at porn, once the curtains are drawn.
Just, seriously - F this series. I'm aware several people enjoy it, I'm just not one of them.

because civilians are being massacred, in a game, no less. which are supposed to be fun. you are expected to join makarov and his pals in tearing up an airport, and then killing a ton of police. and to what end!? there is no need AT ALL for this to exist!Woodsey said:Indeed, someone drinking WKD is ludicrously offensi- ...Oh. Why did that offend you, exactly?Tom Milner said:modern warfare 2, the whole "no russian" guff offended me very literally, when playing it at a friends, i can put my actions in a simple list:
1. start mission,.
2. makarov starts genocide
3. turn off game
4. walk home
5. drink 2 bottles of WKD and go to bed early....06:40M
IT OFFENDED ME THAT ***ING BADLY.
Quite the opposite. I know it's common to rally against "cheap shock", but that airport massacre is PIVOTAL to the story (literaly, most the rest of the series hinges on the consequences of that action), and I for one didn't mind getting a front seat to an event that triggered WWIII. Gave me a better perspective than a narrator would. The old maxim: show, don't tell.Tom Milner said:because civilians are being massacred, in a game, no less. which are supposed to be fun. you are expected to join makarov and his pals in tearing up an airport, and then killing a ton of police. and to what end!? there is no need AT ALL for this to exist!Woodsey said:Indeed, someone drinking WKD is ludicrously offensi- ...Oh.

Uh... apart from the great explanation of the "end" already offered by Iwata, what in the world makes you think that sequence was supposed to be fun?Tom Milner said:
So when you go to the movies to watch Schindler's List, you come out 15 minutes in because all these Jews getting killed isn't fun enough for you?
My god, do you realize what you've done? You've got me defending a Call of Duty game. How dare you?!
But you can just play vanguard and non-stop Nova > Charge him in the face D:DeathSwitch109 said:

Team Fortress 2. I really like this game, but every now and then I just have one of those days. Days where I can't seem to find a server that doesn't have too much lag or allows me to have a decent framerate, days where I'm getting my ass handed to me left and right, days where I keep finding myself on a team with 5 snipers/spies/pyros/engineers, and days where I can't keep my sentry up because a spy keeps getting the drop on me and ruining everything every single time I try to set up.
On those days, I get pretty angry. Maybe tomorrow will be better...

For the archers, once you're at the top near the one on the right, roll to dodge the arrows (the archer on the left cant hit you). Once you get close enough to him he'll pull out a sword and shield. At that point the best strategy is to parry him, which should either knock him off the ledge or kill him.Dandark said:
Stay hollowed unless if you have to restore your humanity. All of the bosses can be fought on your own if you know what you're doing. (I did this with the Anor Londo bosses, took me forever) If you have a friendly phantom while you're invaded, there's no need to turn off the Xbox, since the odds are in your favor. (if you don't have one, summon one) There are not many invaders that can win a 2v1 or a 3v1, and if they're the gankers you're mentioning the chances they are one of those invaders is basically zero.
The Witcher 2 (and not because of the "difficult" combat system).
Here is my experience playing it. Watch cutscene. Talk to some jack off who I have no idea who they are. Get quest. Try to use the piss poor map system (and fail). Wander aimlessly with nothing to poke my swords into forever. Listen to people drone on and on for eternity. Finally find where I am supposed to be. Quickly finish the fight with a few pokes and a couple dodges. Try and find the way back. Rinse and repeat.
I didn't know Witcher meant shrink. I thought it meant monster hunter.

Hmm... no one has mention Shinobi or Nightshade.
I never played Shinobi, myself, because I heard it was even harder than Nightshade. But the final levels of Nightshade were the hardest levels I've ever played. What really made it hard was that the cutscene that happened when you chained killed. It would freeze your character in place, show some type of pose type cutscene, then drop you back into the game. Which more often than not, would cause you to fall into a bottomless pit. And being that this was a PS2 game there were no saves, only checkpoints. So, whenever you died. You started over. Great fun that was.
OH. Did I forget to mention that the final few levels had no floors. Hardest game I've ever played.... and completed. And then there was a car platforming jump battle and a submarine platforming jump battle that were both major tests of patience. God Hand, Bayonetta's Non-Stop Infinite Climax, and DMC3 US original (normal=hard) are both child's play, compared to that game.

I recall one mission in Mafia II that had me pulling out my hair. I vaguely remember having to follow a car, and the car kept on getting stuck in traffic, which would cause the game to blame me and say I failed. I didn't fail, your stupid AI failed. I do love that coke-a-cola and rum song that's in that game, though.....
