That's nothing, ever lose an Aircraft Carrier to a Galley?

Haha, good point. That made me laugh.

final boss batle on gears of war on insane
kryll, Raam and reavers, its just stupid

I had more trouble against him on Hardcore. Co-op, it's a piece of friggin' cake. Just get one person to take a Torque Bow and hit RAAM, then when the Kryll go away, have the other person hit him between the eyes with a Sniper round. Then, if the Torque Bow player has reloaded and RAAM's Kryll pets aren't back, hit him with another arrow.

I just raged a bit on Gears 2 playing Horde online, wave 34 and i got killed by a flamer that blew up because my teammate hit his flame pack... Sometimes i feel like things that are destined to explode lock onto me on purpose :(

Alright. Colonization. I'm sure a few of you remember this game. I made an army of 5 cannons, 6 soldiers and 3 dragoons, to fight against an indian tribe. They all died, when 6 Indian troops attacked them. 6. 6.

Everything about that FUCKING game was a giant FUCK YOU moment. Controller-breaking frustration.

Man, God's an unfair asshole sometimes...

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.

that battle wasnt even that hard, jus counter and combo kills

All of the Ninja Gaiden 2.

Especially when you find out that last mission's boss is a miniboss in next or any following mission. Or when mission nr. 1's boss is mission nr 6's miniboss and has a partner.

Oh, and normal mobs that are harder than some minibosses. I still have nightmares after THE HORSEMEN OF DOOM WITH GIANT SPIKES ON STICKS AND THEY WILL F***ing own YOU!!

Xan in UT2K4. He respawns with more health and armor each time you kill him. It gets ridiculous after your 4th kill.

The most recent f**k you moment in a game was in dead space. Chapter 11, after fighting through the horde, pulling the marker and finally making it onto the ship and just 6 seconds away from the checkpoint... the power goes out... The day after that I found out that I was that close I almost tore my hair out...

In the 1998 Heart of Darkness you play as this kid . By quoting wikipedia :
"The game is notable for the number of disturbing ways that Andy can be killed, as with all cinematic platformers. Andy can be crushed, eaten, incinerated, drowned, and even have his back broken in numerous ways.."
On the other hand, every enemy in the game has this cartoony , Disney like death in which they dissipate in a puff of smoke.

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.

Ahh the "Ozma special"

It's not a boss when the only tactic is "pray he doesn't rape you", it's a punishment.

On fallout 3 i was going to the capital building raping anyone that came into view. But i came across the really big super mutant with the talons fighting them and i watched at the door waiting for it to kill everyone. I saw my objective, which was my 4th fatman, in the hands of a talon. I thought he would quickly fire and kill the big super mutant and id kill him then. But no, turned 180 degrees around towards me and open fired. Needless to say i was pissed so to get back i came back with my own fatman and shot him and his friends to hell and back. I'm not sure if you've seen those big super mutants fall into 100 pieces before it gets to the ground but i can assure you it's satisfying.

You get surrounded by a lot of those shadows in the 5th screen in the first.

Yep, Civ IV. I do some math and figure 15 decently promoted macemen ought to beat two longbowmen behind walls in a size 4 city the capture of which would pave the way to a good domination of the midgame...

Foolish. "GodDAMNIT. Fuck you!"

EDIT: the ending of Halo 2.

Playing through CoD4 on Veteran wasn't so much a "Fuck You!" series, as just me randomly screaming in agony and tearing out my own hair.

WaW on the other hand, was chock full of "Fuck You!" moments. Example Given - That sniper duel (on Veteran), finally, after about an hour, I pull off the perfect headshot, nanoseconds before he would have shot me, and I'm screaming "Oh praise the lawd! Oh holy of mother of jesus, I DID IT!"

Then I hear, "You only grazed him, hit him again".

There was a rumbling..... small animals in hedgerows run for their lives.... a terrible noise erupts....

"FFFFFFUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

God of War 2, Titan mode.

I got to the Translator and managed to kill off the three Priests. I was in my last sliver of life, while the translator was pretty much unharmed. Then some mutt bit me from off-camera. I said, screw it and played the game nevermore.

Psychonauts. I'm jumping along platforms, and I'm just about to get to the end, and suddenly, Raz phases right through one of the platforms, I die and have to start from the beginning.

The last mission of the American Campaign in Call of Duty 4. Possible spoilers, so look away perhaps:
You think you're going to make it. You save that little squad in the back alley. The helicopter takes off, you begin to haul butt. Then... *BOOM*
It was at that point I realized this game hates everyone.

Any moment in any game it seems you're going to seal the fate of your enemy then they spontaneously decide to break out their Overdrive and just omgwtfpwnzorz you into Game Over instantly.

The Big Daddies on BioShock are walking "F*** You"s, for example I was battling a bollock-load of Splicers and all of a sudden I'm stunned and flying through the air, it appears that while randomly gesticulating trying to escape the junkies, I had gotten too close to a Little Sister and provoked the wrath of a big daddy.

The last time was in Oblivion.
I push A to speak to a guy but instead the game decides that I stole some fucking plate and suddenly the whole royal guard is behinde my ass.
Ohhh, and there were countless "fuck you" moments in the Buffygame for PS2.
It happened a million times that I was killed by the weakest vampire couse the controlls were out for a drink together with the camera.

Valkyria Chronicles. Episode 7.

You know what would have made the mission easier IF THEY HAD TOLD YOU THAT AN EVIL WITCH BITCH WAS GOING TO SHOW UP AND SLAUGHTER EVERYTHING THAT MOVED!

The entire stage is one giant middle finger erect and on FIRE.

Then I went Crazy Prepared and Raped the Doom Fortress and then the cutscene after?

Evil Witch Bitch deflects a FUCKING TANK SHELL! I was screaming at my TV "Retreat! Fall back you dumb asses!"

When i finally did hit him, a resounding "YEEEESSSS" echoed through the walls, shortly followed by a "WHAT THE FUCK!!!"
That to me was absolute bullocks. He can kill you with one little shot to the leg but a headshot against him was only considered a "graze"

What the hell was he wearing?

This week, playing Resident Evil 4 on pro. Second run, but without any overly overpowered weapons -a few Ganados and dr. 'the chainsaw dude' Salvador constitutes a fair fight.
Okay, so here I am, just saved the game, everything peachy, and look at the map to evaluate what's next.

More than a few Ganados and dr. Salvador, followed by two Gigantes -who make a decent boss on their own-, and followed by a horde of flying insects who are only efficiently killed with a shotgun-type weapon. The same shotgun-type weapon that'll be drained out of ammo somewhere during the fight with the Gigantes.
No problem, I'm going to kick ass anyway, right?
A few tries, days and lots of bad words later -not to mention a few unfair enemy spawns- I killed of the last insect, and point myself towards the end of the last room.
To find it blocked by a few instant-death traps. Which, upon close inspection were indeed, instant-death.

YOU ARE DEAD
retry from last save, at the beginning of all those rooms?
- Yes
- No
Fuuuuu...

'Kane & Lynch' level 12 and 13 (I think). In the first one it took several attempts to cross an open area that was circled by a helicopter with VERY strong guns. Wouldn't have been a problem if there weren't several trigger that spawned new enemies.
In the next one, I had to sniper protect a teammate who carried explosives. Man, I really didn't see half of the enemies attacking (as I am not such a good player ^-^)

And, of course, General Raam in 'Gears of War'. This guy always switches me to hysteric mode...

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.

I didn't have a problem with the sniper part of this mission on Vetran, it was just before when there are 20 guys spawning infront of you, 15 behind you and no cover except exploding cars. I think the NPC is there just to fustrate you. You kill 30 guys in 5 seconds and he excited claims that he killed one. Top notch, thanks for the help.

The only part worse then this was in the TV studio, I tried about 30 times to get though that. They keep respawning guys unless you go right. I went left to avoid the snipers and have some cover. I had a pile of bodies big enough to stand behind but they still kept coming. Go right, throw all your grenades kill the snipers and they don't respawn. WTF.

A section on mirrors edge when you have to run across a wall to grab a pipe. For some reason it kept on glitching so I couldnt grab it and I died. What was worse was that the game always respawned me so I was facing the edge of the roof so that if I ran forward at all when I respawned I would just fall and die.
