Have you ever felt a game just didn't like you or really just wanted just to **** with you? I know i have,

the most recent example was probably STAKLER clear sky, for a start the game didn't want to run at above 20FPS or have some of the features like motion blur or depth od feild/ distance bluring fake AA enabled and had you make enless trips to the gamedata folder, mod sites and console. Or theway missions get constantly done without you making you feel like an unncessesary ****.

The difficulty to is a beach on both stalkers, but this is one feature where the game hating you (in the first game, the second just over did it) is a good thing, the punishing realism was a welcome change.

The First game was like this but didn't suffer as much for it, sure there were moreand better options in the user.tlx but that just made you feel like a smart ass for getting there.

Care to share any more games that blatantly give you the finger.

counter strike source, aiming doesn't work properly and when i shut it down it hangs vista for like 5 minutes. I gave up and just play half life 2 mods instead.

Ninja Gaiden 2 on Mentor, making it to the final set of bosses (five in a row), and beating the first one after a few tries. Getting stuck on the second boss, but not frustrated, and then having her use an attack that causes the game to essentially freeze (makes Ryu get stuck in an infinite loop animation and she disappears). I have to restart from before the first boss, and all the stupid mutated red fish respawned (and take forever to kill, since all you have is a gatling harpoon gun to damage them with, and they take roughly 50 shots each and can take down half of your health bar with one attack). Needless to say I haven't played the game in a few days. :P

I really want to get to Master Ninja though.

Too Human is like that. It's completely unbalanced. I mean that in the mental kind of way. Any game that gives you an achievement for dying 100 times is trying to screw with you.

Putting you in a room with two enormous trolls that have status attacks with barely enough room to move around in is really crappy.

Battlefield: BC today. I threw a grenade into a farmhouse with the crate inside to clear it out, but my team-mates are in too much of a rush to claim the crate for themselves that they rush in and I lose 20 points for team damage.

Then a tank is coming towards me, I set down a mine, it blows up and kills me but not the tank for some reason.

There's one of those in Too Human as well? There's one in NG2, and I got it on my first playthrough. :lol:

Ninja Gaiden II. I love the art style, the brutality/gore, and the fluid/engaging combat but the game is so friggin hard and so friggin cheap that I can't stand it sometimes, especially during boss fights. I don't think I'll ever finish the game because of the difficulty.

Necrovision. I have just played the demo and is difficult plus the performance is bad ( despite the graphics are not something special ) and the controls are a bit awkward

The DoW 2 beta seems to hate me. It keeps randomly crashing when I am about to win a match, and it has a strange tendeny to not count some of the ranked matches I play as wins or losses, as if they didn't happen.

Fire emblem for the wii. I gave up after chapter 4 or so. I know, that isn't exactly far. Thing is i'm pretty good at strategy, little proud of it, and there were continuously things i didn't know or that didn't go as expected. Since i try to beat everything in as little moves as possible it became rather frustrating. Probably if i took the time i'd get it done in one go but really that's not the way i work.
It's currently at the bottom of my pile of wii games as punishment.

Any RTS game. They just take joy in watching me fumble ham-handedly with the controls and basic tutorials, forever struggling with the most basic of concepts, slowly searching for hotkeys and trawling through menus like a lost foreigner in a city filled with signs written in an unfamiliar language, scared of asking for directions lest he be shouted at in an even more strange dialect.

Company of Heroes Intimidating is a word I don't use often. But not only does it apply with CoH, but it can be so intimidating that I'll just stop playing for a while despite it's extraordinary quality. I take a risk setting the AI on normal on a skirmish on anything other than Angoville. When I play online I get slaughtered every 4-5 games I play.

Fallout 3 for PC. One time it crashed 6 times in a row within 30 seconds of starting the game. It was at the place where you have to go and kill all the ants for the lil kid. That game is the devil! :evil:

any game that you have to find your way around generic looking hallways without a map or some kind of indicator of where to go or where you are. I just have a terrible sense of direction in games lol
