Paperboy Posts: 18 Joined: 7 Mar 2008 | How's this for an old one? Star Trek: 25th Anniversary. Old adventure game about the original series released in 1993. The last mission in the end has you battling two ships, one being a duplicate Enterprise. The battle is considered to be nigh impossible and entirely based on luck... I never did get to finish that mission and the game. Bully, the game. The final mission I beat up everyone, and am fighting Gary on the scaffolding. Gary finds a glitched spot and gets stuck, and I can't finish the mission. To get to this part you have to run around the academy and take out the leaders of the four cliques plus make your way up to Gary. Takes probably 2-3 hours... was not happy... In my opinion, Xenogears once you hit the second disc... I had to groan at how unfair it was for the game to suck so bad after that. And they had it going SO well before that... Playing Jurrasic Park for the SNES and realizing it had NO SAVE FEATURE!! Star Control 3... just... the game itself. Damnit, that one hurt... And my final, most retro 'no fair' moment... Playing Yar's Revenge, and being taken by the Ghost of Yar. Only happened once... still sucked... |

i'm with you on that one. that had to be one of the most horrible things a person could come up with for a game. i played it a bunch of times, never with the intent on beating it. one time i decided to try. never again. anyone ever play super bonk on the snes? same BS. probably a lot of games out there that are unforgivable for that reason years ago, when Marvel VS Capcom 2 just came out in arcades. i had enjoyed the first one (i wasnt too good, but it was fun), and i was excited when i saw it. me and my friend were in a small arcade, and there were two machines near each other. there were maybe like 5 people total in the arcade that day. one guy was playing MVC2, and he was quite good at it. i just wanted to try the game so naturally i went to the other arcade. im about 15 seconds into my match when the other guy comes over to my arcade, pops in a couple quarters, and proceeds to beat the crap out of me. i didn't even know what the new features were in this game yet, and this guy comes over to get his jollies. wtf? i mean, how lame do you have to be? haha |

I'm with you on this one... I never had many "No fair" moments, but I remember playing DMC3 at the chessboard part and I had to destroy the king in order to finish the part very fast. I made my way to him, used all of Dante's powers, managed to kill the king and I was supposed to pass onto the next part- but Dante died at the exact moment the king did... game over -_- |

And the retarded team that's to stupid to mutiney. And of course any FPS that put you on an important mission with totally shitty weapons. about any time when enemies seem to have an infinite ammount of ammo, untill you kill them. Then they only have 4 shotgun shells. In Baldurs Gate, and BG2. Every time one of my chars was perma-killed. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1141 Joined: 7 Mar 2008 | well the one that got my ire up the most is in gta san andreas during the race side quests one race you have to go down a hill and if you fall off the cliff and live but miss the check points you have to go back get the check points and of course lose the race. if you push the npc cars off the cliff they can continue on without having to hit the check points AND even pass and win the race out of everything that one still ticks me off after all these years tho crystal chronicles comes in a close second, i got pretty far into it, like 5 or 6 seasons and then it switched elements to ones i couldn't cross and the only available lvls were ones that were well above my chars skill set. stopped playing the game at that point |

You can sidestep from Tekken 3 on. In Tekken 2 you get pushed to the side after blocking so many hits. But I agree for Tekken 1. I gotta say Mike Tyson in Mike Tyson's Punch Out! I remember my first experience vividly. First time I fight him: "OK...sit back, see what he does to give himself awa-" SMACK! Knockdown 1. "What the fuck?!? He dropped me in ONE PUNCH?!? Ok...he blinks before throwing. OK he just blinked...move to the side...he didn't do anyth-" SMACK! Knockdown 2. *2 minutes into the round* "OK. I think he's done with the blinky magic punches. What else can he-" SMACK! TKO. |

Definitely. EA's games have ridiculous "rubber-banding" AI. They claim that it keeps the game interesting so that you will never have a blow-out victory. The problem is that the advanced AI doesn't turn off once it takes the lead. That's why I wound up trading in EA's NBA/NFL Street titles. |

Funny thing about Lou: I beat him the first time on the song. Then failed the next three times. |

Revenge Of Shinobi - Hardest Difficulty. Whovever Said Mortal Kombat: MK1 - Flawless MK2 - Flawless Mine has to be a shedload of 8 & 16 bit games that cheat to beat you, with psychic enemies, jumps that vary length and, of course, the dummy exploding powerup. |

There's an American in it. I smile because I'm a SpecOps. Use all of my C4 on it. -BOOM!- Kicked from server, and I quote, "For being an ASSHOLE!" Because I was trying to defend my base, I got kicked. What the fuck? |

Paperboy  Posts: 37 Joined: 27 Mar 2008 | Definitely getting nuked in CoD4. Yiazmat in FFXII also comes to mind. 54 million HP is just ridiculous, especially when you throw Magick Barriers and Palings in. The game is long enough without the guy. |

You know when thats the case too becuase you jsut joined and already have 10 kills battlefield vietnam, my m16 sniper ran out of ammo so all I had was a pistol, and someone playing as a vietcong has picked up an M60 and grenade launcher...and he was in a jeep with someone else... the first big boss in God of War...but then I found out Kratos kicks a** |

The first time that happened I was "NO FAIR!" because there was absolutely no warning that Kratos was going to fight back - by this point I'd put down the PS2 controller to have a pull on my vodka. Other than that the first time I played Starcraft online and got Zerg Rushed. |

That's like calling a cut scene unfair. The point was never to beat it but to get across the message that, as Yahtzee said, "Nukes R bad". And hell, even the side message of "You can be awesome and kickass and totally save some pilot's ass, but war will still kick you in the balls if it wants to." |

Muckraker Posts: 320 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | Lol for a while I thought "Nuke in CoD4" meant a new kill spree upgrade in multiplayer. I liked the nuke in CoD4. It said "You are not immortal. Get with it." It caused me to, um, not die after that. Ever. I didn't die once after that event. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1189 Joined: 20 Dec 2007 | Practically any boss in Ninja Gaiden. -and I remember some RTS games like DoW(WA) where in the campaign it was me, some Guardsmen, a Command Squad, and some buildings to hide in, while I had to hold off about 1,000 orks and two Squiggoths for 10 minutes till Re-enforcements (which I thought were gonna be useless 'til I saw that it was a baneblade and really tough units)...longest 10 minutes I've played in a game, I was on the very verge of destruction until the last second hit...if I was on a harder difficulty it would have definitely been a "NO FAIR!" moment. Oh and "Dante Must Die" difficulty modes on DMC are a fucking pain. |

Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 928 Joined: 5 May 2008 | I was playing FFXII and was in the desert at the begining of the game. I couldn't do my quickenings very well, and when I attacked a Sauras I'd killed easily the two times before, I was shocked when it was STILL standing after a 12 chain quickening. All the others had died. This one lived. It was level 36 I was level 15. Needless to say, it got a little pissed and slaughtered me. |

Glitches in Star Wars Battlefront. If oneself can get inside a wall, there is almost no stopping them. Fortunatly, me and my clan have a little syaing that speaks on behalf of many gamers; Glitches are toys, not tools.
Still, it's a *meep* for anyone who has to deal with those people.
