For me, it's probably playing Monster Hunter, getting in the game with a hacker, and then being unjustly banned from the online servers for a week. And this was about the time that it was really popular amongst my friends.

Some guy was making threats for me to uninstall StarCraft 2 -- this was during the Beta... Eve Online is another... losing your ship really blows.

Even though you can mute, I find it really distracting and irritating the way people (especially kids) rant over speaker. I'm all for a bit of competition, but some people just take it a bit too seriously.

That, and half the time nobody was playing or everyone had a habit of disconnecting if it took more than 10 seconds to load. -_-

Modern Warfare 2. Playing online when that game came out and a large part of the community took things way too seriously.

Far Cry 2. I bought it on release day for like £30 and the multiplayer was absolutely amazing. Seriously one of the best ever, such intense battles. And then about two months later it was infested with lag problems (which made sniping a total joke), griefers and elitist high level jerks who kicked anybody who wasn't max level from the servers. It also became incredibly unbalanced. If you unlocked the auto grenade launcher and knew how to use it, you were virtually indestructible. I traded FC2 back in for about £19 which wasn't too bad now I think about it. It's a dead shame though, I really enjoyed it to begin with.

Every second of every online game I ever played was terrible, because all the people playing were terrible people, on XBL and PSN alike.

FIFA 10's Be a Pro mode was pretty frustrating.

Firstly, you had a 5 minute time limit to join Team One or Team Two, then press X to "Ready up". People would wait for the entire five minutes before picking a side in the last few seconds, or even worse were the ones who picked a side but didn't "Ready up".

Then you had to pick your position. Everybody wants to bea striker, so you have to wait another five minutes because they refuse to pick another position, in the vain hope that the guys playing as striker will get bored of waiting and leave.

Then, when the game finally starts, everybody in defence decides to BE a striker, leaving their goal completely unprotected. I gave up trying to be a midfielder in the end since I usually ended up all on my own trying to stop the goals flying in.

FIFA 11 reduced the five minutes to about twenty seconds, which made things a whole lot better.

Semi-retarded kids screaming complete and utter bull crap. I don't even find it useful anyways. In public matches no one does anything strategically so why bother.
