Games that make you wanna pull your hair out and run around screaming obscenities

    [​IMG] I'd have to agree with the Shadow Godess. The Wheel of time is a BIG let down. It spent a total of 1 day on my PC then I finally uninstalled it. I normally love shoot'em ups but the Wheel of Time? :toofar:

    A game that I'm playing right now along with ToB that makes me "wanna pull my hair outand run around screaming obscenities" is a strategy game called SHOGUN: TOTAL WAR. Its a GREAT game but its so damn challenging and realistic that I haven't been able to discern the AI's pattern, both in the real time warfare and the strategy aspect. One clan focuses on cavalry while another picks off your better commanders with their ninjas. Damn! :D

    [​IMG] The only games that give me that sense of failure, frustration and frenzy are the games women play with my mind. :toofar: :aww:

    Don't get me wrong ... the pay off's are worth it :love: but still .... they sometimes make me want to drill a hole in my big toe and fill it with Red Devil Turpentine :flame:-- just to minimize the pain.

    [​IMG] Star Wars: Force Commander. Never did a game look sooo cool on the box! But it was the clunkiest, most difficult games I have ever played! Couldn't figure out how to re-supply, so my armies got crushed. When supplies did come, they never landed them where I asked them too! I know war is hell, but sheesh!

    Tomb Raider! Damn! They should have stopped around, oh, say...number 1. The sequels sucked and the gameplay was the worst I'd ever experienced.

    Podracer is annoying as hell. Great game, don't get me wrong, but you'd just about have the board won and - whoosh.

    :wail:

    [​IMG] NLF games? You mean NFL games right? What's up with you people? I love sports and flight sims and I love racing games. Geez. Plus there are good console games out there. I speak for the N-64 at least. But I do agree down with Diablo.

    I have to confess that i really hate almost ANY racing game, and despise sports sims with a passion, especially football (soccer to all you americans out there;)). There is ofcourse the exceptions of Speedball 2 and Sensible soccer ofcourse, those games were just pure class:D.
    The worst game i ever played in general for making me very frustated was tomb raider 3 just because of all those damn bugs.

    [​IMG] Ok for all the people who hate racing games (IMHO the best kinda game to play real quick and blow some steam with, perfect if you have a quick five minutes on your hands). You hate them but yet supply no reasons. What you always loose or something?
    ;) :grin: :p

    Metal Gear Solid! Awful! Horrible! Over-hyped game!

    They said its non-linear - its not! they said its huge and takes tons of time to finish! it doesn't!

    75% of the game is f$%&ing movies and conversation that go like this:

    professor - "Snake! They're going to start a Nuclear War!"

    Snake - "Nuclear war?"

    professor - "Yes a nuclear that's wear governments use nuclear weapons to, etc. etc. etc." (they show pictures of atomic blasts and so on at this point)

    Snake - "Nuclear weapons?"

    Professor - "Snake, are you retarded?" (ok, I admit it, I said that, the guy can only speak in moronic questions...)

    Oh another great dialog moment (among hundreds I assure you) was: "Snake do you blieve in love on the battlefield?"

    WHAT?!

    The whole game takes place in 4 different areas, that you have to repeatedly return to... to get in maybe one extra room. The voice acting... the control... its giving me a migrane just thinking about.
     
  11. Ok, this probably has been mentioned before but I'm too lazy to read all the stupid games you peeps hate so this is what I hate...

    DIABLO AND DIABLO 2!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well it seems to me that diablo though over hyped and definetly not as good as everyone says, is not as bad as so many people here make it out to be, at least in my humble opinion.
     
  13. My brother played Diablo and now playing Diablo 2 expansion set!!!!! So *I* at least know what it's about!!!!:flaming:

    [​IMG] Even though I'm primarily a strategy gamer/roleplayer, I still enjoyed Diablo2, esp with expansion. Of course, half of my fun was just designing the character and deciding where to spend skill points, but still--it's more interesting than shootemups to me.
