mad because you thourght there was sotmhing you were suposed to do to NOT die..that you missedSarge034 said:The beginning of ME2. I mean, you die... I actually said, "Well... I'm boned" when Shep got spaced. Then I got mad, really really mad.
And I forgave it.
or mad because you actually thourght they had killed off the main charachter and were going to give you another player charachter
Mass Effect 2....play as intrepid war Correspndant Diana/Daniel Allers!
ME3 Multiplayer: Hack the Objective, more then one banshee is on the field, nobody has missiles. (Most of the matches I play I seem to be the only one using missiles, everyone else is squeamish about using them it seems)
Dead Space 1: Fighting the Leviathan for the first time with virtually no Ammo. I managed to suck so much I'd been barely scraping along killing the regular necromorphs. I was all out of money to buy any more. That fight is haaaaaaard without ammo.

I feel bad for this guy.
Otherwise the worst feeling ever is when you trip and are on the way to the ground.
That feeling of cold dread you get when you realise you didn't line up that jump properly, and you can only watch helplessly as Mario sails through the air and down into the bottomless pit below.
When you just scraped through a boss battle, used up all your healing items and are on your last legs, but you did it! ... And then the fight moves into stage two.

Warship gunner 2, three seperate missions, all while working back east.
1. In a recommended ship, fast and "tough" cruiser. Thirty missiles later, try mission again. Damn.
2. Using a battleship that would embarrass the US Navy in firepower. Forty CLUSTER missiles later, retry three times. Finally change tactics and just sqeak by, maybe. Jesus, this one sucked.
3. The final mission is bad, but if you play through again there's a nasty surprise. The true final boss. Two words, uberweapon Ragnarok. A ship that LOOKS alien, and fires black instant death spheres of energy. My god, I had to change EVERYTHING I though I knew.
Kingdom Hearts 2, Xaldin and Final Xemnas.
Xaldin fight-I thank Christ that Square Enix decided that changing into forms restored health. I think this fight is broken, but I really couldn't figure out the best way to beat him.
Xemnas final battle- actually the final phase of the final battle. Take a guess? Yep, the laser beam hell. I had maybe 20 HP, then that came. I thought the reaction command would help, and it did....for three shots despite me spamming the damned thing.

Walking around in the dark with only matches to light my way and suddenly...
"It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a Grue."
Shit.
Also in X-COM whenever you send a guy to scout forward ahead just a bit. They get shot at but survive. Only, you have them turn to look at who shot and they can't see them so you have them move forward till they can at which point you realise they don't have enough time units to actually shoot. Or get away.
Happens all the goddamn time and it really sucks.

It depends how many times it happens. Usually I seek cover and go down fighting. The best part is when you see what IS an impossible conflict heading towards you and some how at the end of it all you come out on top.
Video games are meant to be challenging, but not impossible, so when something like that happens where it wasn't intended for you to survive based on your current level, weapon, armor, etc it just makes you feel all kinds of good.

Me and my friend got into a D1 kick "Lets install this old game and beat it two players!".
Aside from the lack of 'conveniences' that D2 has the general hardcoreness of D1 (we found out the hard way that D1 had friendly fire - something we both seem to have forgotten).
Strapping for potions, items and magic, in all of the cathedral, before we turn every corner it was a "Oh shit, can we survive this next fight?" but we managed to endure to the catacombs.
Where we descended the stony steps, seeing nothing but darkness ahead and feeling confident we strode forward. Out from the shadows charged at least thirty plus goatmen in their stun-locking glory. Prior, I was being pretty conservative with my lighting spell since I would accidentally hit my melee friend but seeing all them goatmen surround my hapless companion, I said to my self "Ha, your screwed" and lite that dank dungeon up so fast and hard.
I did get a fancy ear though.

World of Warcraft. Just stepped in to fight Onyxia for the first time. Second we all get in. Insta kill 14 of us. Those 14 happen to be 99% of our healers.
It was a massacre.

Left 4 Dead. On the rooftop of No Mercy, waiting for the helicopter, things are going pretty good, using the defensive weapons at a nice, even interval. A tank zombie shows up, I dispatch it with my machine gun. Literally two seconds later another tank shows up, you have got to be kidding me! My team starts to go down, one after the other. I look around and see another tank. I get up onto a high point and can see at least two additional tanks, four tanks, wtf! I start blowing up propane tanks and setting the lower areas of the roof on fire with gas cans, just gotta keep moving, the chopper is almost here.
By now I've lost count of how many tank zombies are on the roof, my whole team is down and I have literally nothing in the way of weapons, health or pickup items, it's just my pistol. As I run to where the chopper will show up, a tank finally runs me off the roof, the camera pulls out to show the rooftop as the chopper arrives, there are about thirty tanks on the roof. Not sure if the AI director is actually allowed to do this or this was some insane glitch.

Option #2 nailed it. I thought they were "discontinuing" my Shep's story. I worked hard to role play that character dag on it!Vault101 said:mad because you thourght there was sotmhing you were suposed to do to NOT die..that you missedSarge034 said:The beginning of ME2.

Are you suggesting that Bioware should have killed the series in the beginning of ME2 instead of in the last 15 minutes of ME3?!?!?!?!?
