For something in a game, Dead Rising 1, dumb ass AI, when I say run, you RUN!! don't stop and stare at Zombies! Put the game down because I wanted to save them all, but people have told me not to bother on my first play through.

Problem is, there's a book in-game that improves their behaviour a lot. But you can only obtain it at the third day, so it's virtually useless.

It's so annoying, I think this is the only game I ever put down because of frustration. Every other game, I was able to cool off and come back.

I mean, Vanquish for instance. Challenge 6 is probably the hardest thing I've ever done in a video game, but I was never frustrated. I played for like 7 hours straight, and almost threw my controller when I died a couple times when I almost had it. I think one time I died while killing the last opponent, so I technically did it, but it didn't count. Still, I didn't put my controller down longer then a single night, or to make a coffee.

Dead Rising just annoyed the shit out of me.

Dead Rising 2 adressed that problem smoothly. But yeah, I get you.
