1. Asthmatic-like breathing through mics

2. On rail shooting levels (AC-130 lvl in CoD4 is the one exception)

3. Cutscenes you cant skip even after you've watched them*cough*mass effect*cough*

careyletendre

YES!

YES!

3. Respawning enemies, especially behind you (a la Doom 3). When I put a bullet in someone's skull, I expect the sucker to stay dead. When I clear out a corridor with absolutely no flanking routes, I expect it to stay clear (e.g., Quake 4. How many times do they ask you to retrace the exact route you just took 5 minutes ago, just to find it completely repopulated?)

That's a good one.

I'll add

Games without wonderful endings.

Games with only one plot twist.

Good games with little replay value. I hate it when i play a great single player experience and it all seems boring when i go back to it.

1. Games that are great in every way but end too soon

2.Team AI which makes me say "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY FREAK!"

3.Licensed music which does not fit in with the games for example most need for speed soundtracks.I'm sure a lot of us could put together something that sounds a lot better when running from cops or racing.

my biggest complain would be too much repetitiveness in a game(includes stuff like backtracking,amking you fact too many enemies as a cheap way of increasing difficulty).

1. Games that disable/lack certain keys to be bound or settings to be changed easily (refresh rate, mouse sens below the lowest, weapon sway, bobbing etc.) Wish all games had a console and they'd stick to similar commands. Thank you id software.

2. Noobs blocking me every way I'm trying to move while fighting.

3. Kill thieves.

Also another thing I hate are graphics hogs (think every little graphical detail is improtant and if it isnt that way they whine). It is similar to an elitist in a way. For example a person says that on Crysis DX9 is terrible looking an unplayable lol. Another guy also said that you shouldnt both playing Crysis if you cant max it out because people only buy that game for good looking graphics. Lol.

1. 13 year olds who think its cool to spam/curse/annoy nonstop online.

2. Save systems that prevent you from saving the game w/e.

3. Poorly optimized games in general.

I *hate* infinite enemy respawns. It almost ruined CoD4's campaign. It's so archaic and completely unnecessary and unwanted in any modern game not named Serious Sam.

1.) Mic Spammers

2.) TKers, Base Rapers that deal

3.) Noobs, not newbies I don't mind them be glad to teach them about the game and such (as in people who do the things in Number 2 on my list)

1. Games that just won't work and require 1/2 an hour online looking for fixes and patches. I just want to play. 2. Hackers. I still don't really see the point. 3. Bullets not reging on CS:S/Rate hackers. Really annoys me.
