Most of Demon Souls, people who throw random moves in Street Fighter, Ryu players, starving in New Vegas, noobtubes in MW2, pop shots in Gears of War, Uncharted 2 Crushing Mode, etc.
Honestly, i can't remember which game stressed me out the most... but I did experience some anxiety playing CodWaW (SP) on vet and NGS. Oh and I can get stressed-out by pretty much any shooter's MP.
This sucks. As I sit here I honestly can't remember a particular game that stressed me out. I do, however have memories of being stressed out especially in a crucial part of a game. Maybe it's every game that I at some point stress at least a little bit on.
You gotta start putting YC: in your thread titles again :P Other than that S-Storm that is MW2 probably Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock.. You have to play through all the crappy songs to unlock the good songs, i basically just shut the volume off for about half the game.. all this easy alt strumming crap gets on my nerves.. That and BlazBlu CS, trying to beat some of the unlimited chars was freaking hell! i think i broke my D-pad..
Any online shooting game, except for MAG. I don't know why, but when I die in that game it isn't so irritating. Maybe because I have a lesser influence on the game and K/D isn't such a big deal.
Pretty much any game that features cheap deaths. Also I've been playing Mirror's Edge recently, and there have been several extremely frustrating sections. If we are talking outside of ps3 Mario Kart Wii also sends me into rage in single player when I get blue shelled every 5 seconds( which is very often)
Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer. It's a stress test that's out of control. All the CoD games have pissed me off with the many ways to stupidly die but nothing comes close to the BS in MW2. All I need to think of is One Man Army Danger Close noob tubes to remind never to put that trash in my PS3 ever again.
lol...or clock tower...the suspense of not knowing when scissorman is gonna get you...

Ah yes, mp40 noobs are just retards if you ask me, it's like "Im so good i don't even try"... "Use a real gun then you no000ob!!!" Im sorry about that. I'm just too good lol :P
MW2 Multi pisses me off on a daily basis, but if you mean real stress, it was Wetwork on veteran in SpecOps. I died around 25 times trying to complete that for my platinum. The end part i was really scared i was gonna get owned.
You stress out over things like bills, traffic tickets, education, work - usually things not related to fun. Stressing out over a recreational activity is just... incorrect.

The most recent game which stressed me out would have to be Dragon Age. That end boss in the game was a complete pain and really had me stuck. I even searched the internet for help, and sadly found out that the squad i picked to go in with me was pretty bad to say the least. But with determination i finally beat him :D Oh how rewarding it was when i slayed that dragon (brilliant game btw).
The third race in F1 2010, at Kuala Lumpur. That place is like the calculus midterm of F1 tracks - nothing but hairpins and decreasing radius turns. The car is constantly spinning out or sliding off into the gravel, and then you can crawl back to the track at 3 mph. And then it dumps a monsoon on you, so your traction disappears entirely and you can't even see where the hell you're going :evil: I quit the game in disgust on more than a few occasions.
Oh well, I lived through it and eventually got pretty good at it. Now I'm on the track in Shanghai, which is a whole lot more fun and doesn't take hours upon hours to learn.

There had to be one video game that kept stressing you out... lol

God of War 2. Seemed like I would hit a brick wall every 5 minutes in that game. I hated the events where you had to time an event to the exact second or the gate would shut.
I'm just a tiny bit stressed at F1 2010 right at the moment. I was about to begin qualifying for the fourth race, but no - corrupted game save. It's a known problem and the developers promise that a patch is on the way.
Sweet. That's only a week's worth of progress wiped out.
If anyone else is playing this, do not complete an R&D objective, finish the practice session, and then exit to the paddock via the engineer's menu. Instead, continue playing until you finish the qualifying session.

I know what that feels like...except on a way worse scale...when I had GT4...I actually was around the 40% mark completed...had the awesome black japanese race cars (You know what I'm talking about...the ones that show up in the used car room around day 667 or something like that)...had 300 awesome vehicles collected and raced with in my garage...include the Ford GT40 race car and GT race car...Corvette, Camaro, Bugatti, everything awesome...and my file got corrupted because it tried to save and I got a power outage during the save...That week was the most depressing gaming week of my life.
Only actual stress in a game I've experienced was WoW. Mainly dealing with other players and the "politics" the PvP and Raid guilds pull on everyone else. Not dealing with that ever again. :P
definitely killzone 2(the ending part where you try to survive the waves and waves and waves and waves of helghasts who wants to eat you alive!, i mean that was torture!:x, i keep trying and trying and trying again and again non-stop for hours! it's actually harder than the very final boss itself)
I play games to relieve stress, not add to it.J-Man725
But all games have some stressful elements, and it's not like you can tell which games will have those elements or not unless you play it. I'm sorry but I just can't believe that you've never been at least a tiny big stressed from playing a game.
