And another game set added to the list is every GTA except SA and IV...they all suffered from some problematic timed missions.
like the mall takeover in VC
Assassins Creed for being so damn Repetitive
Same with Dead Rising
both fun for like an hour or two

Silent Hill 3. I was playing it was a buddy of mine (switching off when we got bored/died) and finally I just looked at him: Are you having any fun?
No.
Fuck this, then.
Same friend tried to teach me how to play Madden. I tried, I really did, for three ulcer-inducing weeks, to learn how that fucking game worked. Finally, I said; this is pissing me off every time I play it, and I can't join you. Sorry.
Half-Life 2, the final boss stage. You want me to what with the what now? It was a rare moment when I realized; I have a life.
Final Fantasy 7, when trying to defeat Ruby Weapon. I fought it for two hours and lost.
I didn't play that game again for a year.
/beat it, though

I Wanna Be The Guy.
Edit: Oh, yes, forgot to mention Croc: Legend of the Gobboes. It busted my balls, which wasn't suprising because I was only about 8 years old at the time. I got to the first level of the desert world, which I attempted to beat over 9000 times before giving up in frustration. It was not untill years later that I managed to beat the game.

Either Diddy Kong Racing for the N64
Or, freakin' Wolverines Revenge on whatever system I had it for...DEAL LORD THAT WAS Bad!

Call of Duty 4 on the 360.
Its fine when I die due to my lack of skill or their greater skill, but the amount of deaths due to horrible hit detection and lag made me sell it.

Now that's what we need people, passionate gamers. That's not a fanboy at all, that's a person with a passion for history.Graustein said:
Anyway, I still have not gone back to pick up GTA 4 since I died, then died again, then of course, happened to find a new spot to die in one mission; and that sad part is, I don't even remember which mission it was.
Command & Conquer 3, the mission where you have to destroy a nod weapons dump with like...5 guys. And a couple jeeps. No base, no way to rebuild, one mistake and lose an extra engineer, mission over. FUCK that. I suck at strategy games, but I love the story and cutscenes in C&C, but you cant even fire up a cheat code just to get past the obligatory bullshit mission.
I also completely abandoned Knights of the Old Republic 2. Look, you play a star wars game for one reason, to slice shit up with a lightsaber. When you dont get a lightsaber for 8 hours of gameplay, thats called bullshit.
I played the shit out of Oblivion, but I never actually beat the main story quest. It was just too dull.

Oblivion: I was hooked the moment I started playing it. A few hours later, I'm in a demon's castle in some other dimension and the fuckers are bloody invincible. It took me half an hour of save/reload to kill three guys in the room I was in because they damn-near one shot me while I had to hit them 20 times over. I used up all of my potions and everything. Finally successful, I venture into the next room and see more of the same thing. I gave up right then and there.
Counterstrike: All it took was a few headshots from an awpwhore to send my mouse flying. I played that game for a couple of years and every session ended with a /ragequit.
WoW: I would have quit sooner, but I had several friends who played. If it wasn't a quest that said, "Grab 10 of these really rare drops," it was walking for 15 minutes to turn in the quest, only to be given a follow-up that required walking all the way back there. I'd never been so bored in my life.
Surely there are many more. I don't often let games get to the point of pissing me off -- if I'm not entirely enthralled with them, I turn them out immediately. I'm very picky about games.

Spore put me right off on my 3rd playthrough at a vegan hippy race it was all fine and dandy until tribe where the murdering, rapists that were my race the last two playthroughs were my neighbours.
Let me tell you it is not nice seeing your love able furry pink wazzerwibjit being torn apart by satan and a shark-monster over and over again.
Fuck you Will Wright and your inherent hate of plant eaters, Fuck you straight to hell.

Battlefield 2, the most hands down unbalanced game i have ever played. The unlockable weapons ruined it for me, and dont get me started on the load times!
Spore-Space pirates!
Fuck you, whiney homeplanet!
I have a space ship, I can go where ever i want!
I dont wanna stay at home babysitting when all the cool kids hang out in the center of the galaxy!

Actually, you hit the nail on the head. The story of Shadow of Rome has Agrippa returning to Rome from a Germanic campaign to find his mother killed by General Decius (a vewwy bad man) and his father - Vipsanius - blamed for Julius Caesar's assassination. One thing leads to another and Agrippa winds up a gladiator fighting for his father's life while the future emperor Octavianus goes all stealthy, sneaking into the Senate and collecting coins to buy tigers and haircuts... for some reason.Graustein post=9.75169.861919 said:
Yes, the game throttled Julio-Claudian history and replaced it with a much bloodier and conspiracy-filled one. It's still a kickass game, mind the parallel universe in which it occurs.
Super Ghouls and Ghosts. If anyone has ever played it and beaten. Tell me your tale! I've only beaten the first stage.
