This is a thread where you tell us times the game you are playing has just been a complete dick to you and then said "Fuuuuuck yooooouuuuu!".

The "F**k You" Moment in a game is when the game itself does something purely for the purpose to f**k you over. Here is an example: You are playing COD4 on hardcore mode and you are just about to finish the level, to flush some enemies out a position you toss a grenade, then your grenade bounces off an invisible wall or bounces backward and goes directly back to you, killing you...

This is when the game glitches or just crashes in a way that completely f**ks you over. Here is another example, I was playing Need For Speed: Undercover, rounding a corner I tap another car as I am about to win a race, for no reason the physics engine crashes and I fly off into a wall...For no reasons...and lose...

For no reason something completely out of the ordinary happens and the game does it for the sole reason to cause you to lose/die/crash. So whats your "F**ck you!" Moment in gaming?

Edit: I am now running a contest to see who got the worst "Fuck you" Moment. PM me with your entry.

Winner will be announced soon.
Edit:1
Winner is... Willwillwritehiswill

Willwillwritehiswill:
Just yesterday playing dead rising, trying to survive a flurry of chainsaw blades, i jump into the track for the space ride. Thwack! minus one health block. I get up. Thwack! Lather, rinse and repeat untill dead.

Yeah, Fuck you too Dead Rising.

Being in that situational several times, I now curse Dead Rising a bit...

Playing through an entire level in COD 4 on Veteran, and then I die at the end only for it to not give me any checkpoints for some odd reason and i start again from the beginning. This happened to me on War Pig on a few occasions

I was trying to play through MGS 4 without being seen and without killing anyone, and right before I'm about to finish a chapter a guy (who I swear was facing the other way) spots me.

In assassins creed in the middle district of acre at the port I went to the viewpoint that is on an island and took the leap of faith down. Only to repeatedly die because the fucker altair doesnt know how to swim and the AI kept fucking throwing me into the goddamn water. At first I was going to stop playing, but then it got to be a personal vendetta. Me vs. the game.

RPG's with bosses that are guardedly difficult. Times where you will be fighting them, doing a good job then all of a sudden that boss decides to pull out "The bitch maker". Yes that one move where the boss just says "hah go fuck yourself you little punk!! *BAM!* your now MY bitch!". It is also called "fuck you we are Square Enix". Many times have I fallen to this resorting me to go level grind and item hunt till I have a build good enough but even then resulting in near death wins. Yup RPG's have to take my vote for having the most Fuck you!! moments.

Prince of Persia's ending.

Didn't hate it or anything, but you can't deny the knee of plot-intended irony they gave to the groin of "I should've f*cking guessed eight hours ago".

In Condemned 2: Bloodshot during the first investigation in the old decrepid building there is a lone mannequin at the end of a long hallwa and you don't know iif it is a real person or not so you throw some things at it and it doesn't move so you deem it as ok. You walk down this unnecessarily long hallway and take a long hateful glare at the mannequin. A gun in the corner catches your eye and you leave the dummy to go and pick it up. With the pistol in hand and the light of the room flickering irritatingly, you turn around to find yourself surrounded by 4 more dummys that are all staring at you. while attempting to navigate through the sea of dummys you notice that one of them is block ing the door. *facepalm*.

The worst one I can remember offhand is the PC version of COD4 on "One Shot, One Kill" on Veteran.

I was hiding under the Ferris Wheel, and just when the enemies come within range, I get 4 grenade warnings and get slapped with a flashbang to the face.

Reload.

I hide in the knoll by the NPC, I get shot and go into the hurt-view, so I back down the hill. I then get hit in the face with 3 frags and die because of the impact (not the blast).

Reload.

I go behind the bumpercars, lay all of my claymores (including the extras from the other guy) in the entrance to the area, and lie in wait for all this to end while sniping anyone in range. Suddenly, 3 enemies show up in that area, without triggering ANY claymores, and turn my ass to swiss cheese.

Reload.

I hide in the hallway where half the baddies spawn and plan to shoot anyone who comes near. Someone does, he dies. Another, dead. I then begin to reload, and BAM, at that very moment 5 guys come in and turn my face to powder.

Reload.

I do the same thing as above, but I only reload when necessary, and throw in some C4 to help out, along with some claymores down the path. Finally, the heli arrives, and I try to make a break for the Captain. Even though all the guys are facing him, ALL of them turn around when I make a dash toward closer cover, and I get at least 500 rounds to the front.

Exit Game.

Me and my friends play infection alot on Halo 3.
We have one map on sandtrap that the humans always use mongooses and warthogs. Well, I got sick of just using the sword and getting mowed down and pulled out the gravity hammer; which, when dealing with vehicles, I like to call "the fuck you button" because it seriously messes them up.
Yes, a shameless yahtzee quote.

Left 4 Dead when a retarde teammate shoots a Witch on Expert mode. Or CoD4 on any difficulty when I'm sniping and someone decides to run infront of me as I shoot, resulting in a "Friendly fire will not be tolerated" and having to start over.

There was this one quest in Fallout 3 where I was supposed to meet a caravan of people at a certain location, so I fast-traveled to said location. However, the caravan did not arrive, so I went looking for them, and when I finally found them, one of the NPCs had died before I even got there, and it said "Quest Failed." That was a huge "fuck you" moment.

Left 4 Dead. Pretty much most of it is a series of "Fuck You!" moments.

But the Hospital roof... Especially when the game bugs and you somehow shoot through zombies without harming them (I mean what the hell!)

My secret was damaging one a little bit, running around in a circle for 5 minutes for my health to go to full, and repeat. Took like an hour.

Insta-kill moves in Persona 3. In a game where apparently no other character but your own has the presence of mind to use revival items/spells, enemies being able to wipe you out with a single curse is just messed up.

Or SSBB, for the same reason. Malicious stages in Adventure Mode or whatever it's called is bad enough(the Wind Waker and DK ones) as you have just the one life, but at least you can continue. The final boss in the boss battle challenge having an instant-kill from 0% damage even if you block and virtually impossible to dodge move at hard difficulty or higher is absolute BS. >: (

Who won?

I did. After about ten deaths. I was finally able to kill five with a sword and kill the other five by throwing them in the water (thank god they cant swim either). Needless to say I shut the game off and was stil terribly pissed for about 30 minutes even though I had won.

AC does a good job of making you feel super badass, especially once you get counter.

Yes. AC almost beat the Dark Messiah throne of being a badass...

But you still can't drop kick a chair into an orks face.

And then have him fall into a fire.

Then kick him into some spikes...which fall off a cliff.

And then have the spikes explode into fountains of blood.

Another fuck you moment that pissed me off: In Original War, you get really attached to everyone in the American campaing...but then when you play the Russian campaign, you KILL ALL MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS!

And this is why I never beat the Russian campaign.

Yes, Left 4 Dead is really buggy. I walked around a corner, and there was a tank so I backed up and guess who spawned behind me? A boomer. Yay. So I get puked on and then the tank comes after me.

Oh, yeah, and whenever I get pinned down and Bill is the only one that can save me, he doesn't. He just sit's there picking his has right next to me. He has never once save me. I hate Bill with a passion.

The first one that comes to mind is the one that just happened to me on Left 4 Dead tonight. After all my teammates had been turned into Survivor Sandviches by the zombies, It was just me and whole load of undead that wanted to throw my cranium between two slices of bread and munch on it. After killing a whole load of them, a tank suddenly shows up. Fortunately, I manage to kill him singlehandedly and I get the Man Vs. Tank achievement. However, by not sacrificing 10 virgin n00bs to the AI director, he becomes pissed and spawns a hunter that jumps on me and begins ripping my nipples out. Since everyone else is dead, there's no one to pick me up and save me so the hunter succeeds in ripping me to shreds and uses my torn flesh as wrapping paper for his zombie children's christmas presents.

Like Namewithheld said....

No, never. Never in a million years. Never will the damage be undone. Bill is pants on head retarded and couldn't save you from a mouse. Not from a mouse already stuck in a moustrap.

And dead.

Francis and Louis AIs are good to me, Zoey is ok.

But, I. Hate. Bill
