I'd have to say New Super Mario Bros. Wii. It isn't a bad game, but jeez, I almost dropped the F-Bomb about 20 times because I was so frustrated.

From this gen:

Crackdown- Room full of enemies+crap auto lock=recipe for disaster

Oblivion/Fallout 3-Stupidly going longs periods without saving and then suddenly run into glitch/death.

Demon Souls-...

Soul Calibur IV, great game but the apprentice is the most cheap and weirdly balanced character I've met in a fighting game in a long time.

Ninja Gaiden. It's an awesome game, but there are some parts that made me want to kill all birds that came near me.

Ugh! ...Mirrors Edge is exactly what comes to mind. I don't know what genius thought it was a good idea to let the player die a few hundred times every other chapter from missing a red pole that common sense should automatically tell your character to reach out and grab to save her own damn life. It's a decent game but I totally had to force myself to finish it.

Bayonetta. If there's a sequel then they've got to fix the camera angles so that I'm not always getting hit from random fireballs from off screen that I can't do anything to avoid.

I think Old SNES games are frustrating as hell, but their still awesome games.

I have. With NSMB Wii, some of the level sections felt unplayable. I then noticed that I had to be more careful. You need to try Super Mario Frustration.

I played it on the 360. And far from it? lol! I don't know why people contiue to tell me that. I really doubt anyone who played that game on their first playthrough couldn't have found it frustratingly difficult. Like, it's constantly trial and error over and over. It's so difficult and repetitive.

Super Street Fighter 4 online. People can be really cheap with Ryu and Ken, and it doesn't help the matter when the majority of the people you fight are using one of the two. Otherwise it's an outstanding game front and center.
