Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Raxus Prime, Act 2, Star Destroyer level.

I tried this oh-so-many times. Over and over and over again, trying every possible strategy. I went on the internet for tips. I watched videos. I read threads. And yet I still couldn't do it. Whether it was the NEVER-ENDING stream of TIEs that NEVER ENDS or the fact that turning the Star Destroyer into the exact right position, much less pulling it down, takes forever and you don't have enough time. And then the TIEs come. And by the time they're gone the Star Destroyer has swung in the opposite direction and I need to begin all over again. If getting the Star destroyer into the exact right position wasn't so goddamned hard, this wouldn't be too difficult. But as it stands it's a horrifically broken sub-level that ruined the game experience towards me.

Oh, and I almost forgot; oftentimes when one gets hit by the TIEs you get knocked back and it's like you're standing on the bar that is keeping you from falling into the abyss, only you can't move and you can't get off and if a TIE hits you again you'll fall through the floor and die and there's nothing you can do to stop it.

FRUSTRATION ENSUED. Never have I ever been so infuriated at a game that I wanted to smash it into little pieces.

Getting to the end of 'Icewind Dale' and finding out I needed to add a freaking goddamned useless bard to my party to beat the final boss. Was I livid.

CoD4, I'm running Mile High Club on Veteran and I get to the guy, and RIGHT as I take the shot the hostage head moves in front of my gun and dies.

Also, I was playing Final Fantasy X, fighting the third Seymour fight, I knock him down to about 300 health and then try finishing him off with a atack from Wakka, the attack JUST comes up short and Seymour uses the "Your my bitch" (Ultimate Destruction for you fellow FFX fans) attack and I die.

Most recently, the 3rd mission of C.O.D. 5 on Veteran. Trying to take out that zskrjhajcnkaucncaj-ing German sniper is a pain in the 'nads.

In the new Prince of Persia when I had to go back to old levels to get just enough light seeds to get Erika's new power...

That game was one massive disapointment.

I was playing NWN2 and I went to the darkside and I had to silince this guy. But his house was guardtopia, and I wasn't allowed to kill any of them cause I was told not to. So I take myself (Ranger) and Neeska (Rogue) and I sneak inside the house and the first floor was fine. However once I get to the second floor there seems to be a guard captain that can see trough invisiblily and tells me that I'm not one of his man, and attacks me. After raping him (FireBall Arrow FTW)I sneak into the room with the guy and kill him. However behind me there are two rooms and a hallway with 8 guards in each. I save and try to sneak out, however for some reason just as I'm about to leave a random guard will either attack me or Neeska and kills cause he can see trough invisiblilty. I WAS SOOOO FUCKING PISSED! Cause I couldn't get out of that fucking room! AURGH!!!!!

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".

amen there

+ the final part of the game, when you're entering the temple, there is a 5-min long jumping sequence without safe platforms and A LOT of green and yellow powerplates (I hate those), and when I got at the very end, I was like, finaly, what can happen now? and then My controller went out (it sometimes restarts when it's low on batteries, but it takes just about quarter of a second, you usually don't feel the difference and it kicks immediatelly back on) and I failed to grab the very last ring at the end of the whole sequence. Fall. Start over.

the monopoly guy:
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.

That is not a bug. In L4D the Infected can spawn anywhere the survivors aren't. So if you're all round one corner, they can spawn behind. This kind of thing is how Versus is played.

There's an RPG called Adventure Quest and if go to this training area you can chose to battle some invaders, they're level 60-something and the people most likely to go there are level 0 noobs.

any body remember ninety nine nights? Even though the game was supposed to simply let YOU kill THEM, it always seemed to get that backward in my copy.

Yet another left 4 dead one.

Right at the start of the end of campaign cut scene sorta bit, right when the plane was starting to head down the runway, i got yanked out the back by a smoker (through the wall somehow), pulled back into the path of a tank who punched me halfway across the tarmac, where i was immediately pounced on by a hunter. Right then: In memory of Jaythulhu at the top of the end of mission credits. Happened so quick my mates didn't get a chance to react.

*SPOILER ALERT*

F.E.A.R Extraction Point.

So, I go through the game, dodging clone soldiers, fighting my way through bosses, all clinging to the desperate hope that at /least/ if I make it to the extraction point, I'll win and can finally put the whole ordeal behind me.

My NPC allies are all brutally murdered one by one. Finally, /finally/ I make it to the roof of the damn hospital, fight through a horde of clones by the skin of my teeth, and the chopper is coming in for me.... and BOOM, it goes up in a ball of flames, crippling me, leaving me bleeding, crawling through the smoking wreckage of my ride home while Paxton goddamn Fettel mocks me as I draw my last breath.

Then roll credits. FFFFFFUUUUUUUU-

Seriously, though... no game has made me feel more punished and cheated for my efforts.

Fallout 3
- I wandered into a city which seemed peaceful at first, until I started getting sniped by SMGs and since combat in this game sucks and my sniper was trash I ran around to the side. I stepped on a damn landmine out of nowhere, and ran into two raiders right after word. Upon killing them I ran into two centaurs, and a god damn mirelurk. After all of that I ended up walking in the middle of a fight between three troopers and a deathclaw. fuck.

- I tried killing a random human but none of the guns did enough damage to kill him, that was pretty much a fuck you moment to me.

- The horrible chance based combat that made me quit playing the game.

Sonic Unleashed
- On a werehog level I finally worked up to this rather large fight with a bunch of enemies, my health at that point was almost gone so I did a bunch of strong attacks and killed everything. The game decided to respond to that by spawning the same two fucking enemies until I died.

- Finally figuring out that all of those negative reviews were right, because past the first few levels the game started to suck major ass.

DOOM
- Ultra violence or higher, mixed with the amount of times I walk out of something barely alive just to run into a clusterfuck of enemies.

Gears of war 2
- Anything with the chainsaw or shotgun has been one fuck you moment after another.

Although I should have expected it the latest fuck you moment that I experienced was in Dr. Wileys Castle in Megaman 9. The part where you are in the anti gravity rooms and you just got through all types of spikes and sucessfully got through the narrow spike corridor only to be grabbed by that little asshole helicopter dude and thrown into the spike wall you just sucessfully passed. This is just one example Megaman is filled with these things. I have vietnam style flashbacks to parts of Megaman 2 to this very day. Many a NES advantage and max controller lost their lives in those horrible weeks.

Oh an the end of Shenmue 1 on dreamcast was a huge Fuck You punctuated by the unbelievable shittiness of the sequel and not even having enough respect for their player to actually finish the damn plotline.

The developers of Shenmue are the ones who hate their customers.

In Mass Effect when you shoot thirty hot plasmas bolts through a rampaging robots face and torso, yet it continues to charge blindly towards you with a dismal amount of health loss and then shots you once in the foot and you die!
Then the game disc screeches and your XBOX 360 begins to moan like Linda Blair in the Exorcist only to die flashing three red lights!
If you rent a game that ultimately kills your three hundred dollar console, that's a serious wallet raping fuck you moment!

Fallout 3's final moment.
Nothing says 'Fxxx You' like denying you the benefit of an ally who negates the problem.

Playing Devil May Cry on Dante Must Die difficulty (well, maybe the game has the right to fuck me over at this point): when it came to the tenth third Nelo Angelo fight, I decided to show off my stock of holy water.

For me, pretty much half of Half-Life 2 as a whole was one big "F### YOU" moment.

Also, in Super Mario Galaxy: one of the purple coin levels where the platforms move you through the level... one coin's ALWAYS just out of reach.

Not sure if this one counts, but the words 'F&%^ YOU!' were definitely utilized.

The infamous Vampire quest in Oblivion on PS3. I killed myself for hours trying to cure myself only to have the witch refuse to take the ingredients for the potion. I kept thunking, maybe I have the wrong stuff or not enough. After tearing my hair out I finally consulted the Internet, only to discover that the PS3 version has a bug in it to prevent you from finishing the quest. So, I had to erase my Shivering Isles game files, reload the game with the original game disk, give her the ingredients (which now worked), then reload Shivering Isles. Forunately, I hadn't entered the Shiver Isles by that time or I would have lost all my equipment (or so I'm told).

I haven't checked to see if anyone posted this already, that's a lot of pages to read. But here's mine.

In World of Warcraft combat rogues get an ability called Killing Spree, it's a pretty sweet move that lets you teleport about randomly stabbing enemies for a few seconds. The problem is it's somewhat buggy about where it places you relative to your position.

I have been fighting enemies in various situations only to use the ability and find myself teleported through the ground and into the yawning grey abyss below, only to have to wait until I die and spirit rez.

I would have to say that every time that happens is a F**K you moment for me. Especially when it happens during a boss-fight or any other difficult fight.

In "No More Heroes," the second ranked assassin has an intakill attack that is triggered by getting too close to her. Can't tell you how many times I brought her to 10% only to have my brains splattered by a little girl in some kind of tutu.

It's a long-ass battle, too.

I get a PS3. All I play for 2 weeks is Motorstorm: Pacific Rift. 4 races off completion (out of 50 or so) with two trophies for 15/16 eliminator and speed events in my sights. Excited by the prospect of game completion. The ps3 resets on an HDD load. Shit (major understatement; at this point I didn't know shutting down during HDD was bad enough for epic data failure)
Load up Motorstorm again. Confusion as it loads starting stuff. The pieces start joining up. Heart rate increases. Quits game to find a corrupted file in game data utility labelled Motorstorm.

I remember enough through the red haze that descended to know that 'Fuck You!' was simply not enough.
