When Has A Game Made You Angry??

I gotta say, I'm pretty curious as to what the hell you're talking about bro

Well essentially I made a forum topic describing how I felt when the game Mass Effect 2 revealed Canada had been annexed by the States. Now while authors and such describe similar events happening to other nations and such all the time, even to Canada. This has never bugged me before, I have played a lot of Fallout and nothing ever good happened to Canada there. For reasons I cannot fathom it "really" hurt when it came from Mass Effect. I expressed this and I was torn down, ridiculed, and outright insulted en-masses. Now while like anything fictitious I got over it quite easily, it was peoples reactions that still befuddle and hurt me to this day.

What say you?

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.

Good game and all, but ooooone tiny problem. It's ALWAYS in slow motion! Like all the time. Is it because I'm playing on PC or is that just how the game is? The cut-scenes aren't in slow motion. It's just a huuuge pain to me.

But seriously if you want to know just politely ask and I will politely tell under the condition you can let someone have an opposing opinion.

This has piqued my interest

Well if you insist, mind you this is a copy and paste from a previous comment that I feel is written well enough:

God of War 1... The fucking Kratos clones battle on God.

Fucking hell...

my gaming arch-nemesis!!!!!! three words. Gym. Leader. Whitney!!!!!!!!!!!! RAWR!!!!!!

Was not that dificult, but I did rage a bit a few times with her...

 

[SomebodyNowhere]

I played the Black Ops free weekend and the constant cheap deaths were pretty damn infuriating. Everybody and their damn random grenades can go right to hell.

 

[EternalFacepalm]

Pretty much when I try to go somewhere, and there's an invisible wall there.
Immersion? What's that? GO SHOOT A RUSSIAN NOW.

It seems a trivial thing to get so upset over, but I get upset over stuff in anime, so I can't really say its trivial
I found it amusing that in an old game of Risk that my parents own, there are three main provinces: Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec. I found this profoundly amusing, because Alberta and Ontario kinda make sense: Alberta playing with the idea of joining with Saskatchewan, BC and a few of the states just over the border, and Ontario already having most of the population of Canada. But Quebec?! LOL QUEBEC.

I know most non-Canadians are jelly of Canada, even when they say they aren't, and I'm happy if a game even mentions Canada, but I won't get butthert about it. Well... it depends on the game. I'd love to see Canada get mentioned in MW3, but I'm sure it'd just be the USMC going into a part of BC to capture some terrorist douchebag, and our mounties are tripping over their 50 year old rifles that were bought from the states, and the whole time the USMC is "That terrorist WOULD be in BC"...

But oh well.
TL;DR. Your point makes sense. I am baffled that you got so much rage on it though.

The Meat Circus level in Psychonauts.

I never knew I was capable of such obscenities before I played that level.

Ugh, that level. I thought my right eye was going to explode from all the twitching.

Most recent: L.A Noire. It's a perfectionists nightmare. I had to get EVERY clue and EVERY question answered correctly or I couldn't stop thinking about it. I have no idea how many times I had to start that line of questioning or the whole damn case file over again. Once I heard that melody that meant I didn't get the question answered correctly, I died a little inside. I started writing everything down.

That's interesting - what about that particular "future history" did you find annoying, vs. say, Fallout? Or is it more a gut reaction type thing?

Possibly it is my fault and I worded my OP wrong or something like that. Anyhoo thanx for the reply and personal insight.

Dead Rising 1. Trying to get the "save 95% of the survivors challenge". Going great, saving everyone nothing big. Notice that one of the timers has finished like 20 seconds before I get to the safe room but it was not a main mission so I don't care and since the game expects me to have and HD tv I cannot read the text at all, not even a little. Save the game, and then find out that the side mission was "get fat guy food or he takes half the others to get food (which I had on me) and they all die" and since Dead Rising has only 1 god damn save slot everything is gone.

I honestly don't see how people could get mad at MW2.

BC2, that's different, that game can either be amazing or coma enduing rage.

 

[The Apothecarry]

Jackal snipers in Halo 2 on Legendary.

Jackal Snipers in anything on Legendary, my good man.

I've raged at any multiplayer in Call of Duty except for Modern Warfare 1.

Brink. One giant ragefest.

Gothic 1.
Non opening doors at the end of the game.

Im Australian....that pretty much sums it up

we are the more ignored group on the globe...the biggest mention we ever get in a game is maybe a random soldiers accent being slightly Aus/NZ.

I can understand your feelings on the subject...

i guess from my own point of view it is quite annoying that Australia simply doesnt exist in the future...

or we might just still be chilling down here with our kangaroo's being like WTF mate??....but we'l be dead soon...f**king kangaroos...

haha...hi-five if you get the reference i used

I guess I am really lying only to myself when I say that I do not know but it seams I cannot formulate a statement explaining why it bugged me so much without invoking severe wrath from anybody I talk to.

Trying to get the good ending in Metro:2033. Screw up once and the god-awful autosave "feature" leaves you having to replay the entire game.

Edit: also Fallout BOS's attempts at humor.

Sorry I do not but I would be pleased if you would be willing to dispel my ignorance. Also look on the bright side, in TF2 you guys are pretty much the super humans of the earth.

SAXTON HALE!

World of Goo.
The controls make the game unbelievably hard. I got stuck on the level where you had to use the skeleton goo balls to make a bridge. Everything was going fine until the idiots decided to swarm my last skull as about to pick it up. My whole bridge collapsed just because I wasn't fast enough.
