After offering some advice to sqrl about a mission involving stopping a dump truck in Kane & Lynch, it made me think about frustrating moments in gaming.
I have a few that I can think of:
1. The club scene in Kane & Lynch. You have to exit the club with the club's owner and cover Lynch. My heavens - I can't tell you how frustrated I was after doing that level tons of times. I wish Lynch, who enjoys shooting folks, had a pistol and could help me out and shoot folks.
2. Having to eat meals - GTA San Anderas. When I play games, having to eat is the last thing on my mind. I can see if I were playing the Sims, but doggone, I am boosting whips, busting caps at the Po-po and I have to stop the action to eat a stinkin' Happy Meal?
3. The moral choice - to take drugs or bring them to the station - NARC. I thought the game was rather chessy to start off with, but as a cop, being able to take drugs and the like OR put them into evidence. Horrible ...
4. Disk read errors - any system. I loved my PS2 games, but I got so many errors I had to send it back to Sony. And my 360 scratched my Mass Effect disk and ME hasn't worked right since. I long for the day of flash-based games for console games again.
Discuss.
