FF7

Too futuristic to be considered a final fantasy and you would think the graphics going from 2-d to 3-d would be better... It wasn't. The fact that it also removed the amount of character playable in a battle from 4 to 3 wasn't a smart move either. The story to me didn't seem to amazing compared to past episodes of the series. Not the mention this was one of the first FF that the western countries had played so you have a fan base of 14 year olds saying it is the shit when that is a lie.

now let's see how many of those fucktards respond.

I've had a few.
Once I accidentally tripped over a chord and knocked out the console while my friend was playing. He hadn't saved and had to repeat the level over again. :[

Ending a round of Counterstrike with 49deaths and 1 kill...and the kill was only because someone felt sorry for me and let me shoot them. I was tired! Tired I tell you!

First time playing Counter Strike online. It was so frustrating, I got lag every time i fired a shot, and because I knew no better, I immediately went to some friggin' elite servers where I got my ass handed to me on a tray within seconds of each round.

I mean, I love playing CS (as well as me buying the goddam game for 50€, though it also came with HL2), but I suck at it so tremendously, and I never find the time to play and practise it D:

Castlevania for NES. I was about to fight Dracula, but then there was a power-outtage. I have never beaten that game or even gotten that far ever since. :(

A short while ago I was playing a bunch of games for the Dreamcast. (the most popular and best gaming system at the time) I managed to stumble across a game called Sega Bass Fishing or something to that degree. I played it for about 20 minutes and beat the entire game. Then, since I was apparently a little pleased with the game, bought it. It wasn't until I took it home that I relized that I'd beaten the entire thing at the game store. I think I beat it about 10 times when I finally sold my Dreamcast.

Mine was probably when i was playing Kingdom of Paradise. I was on the last boss(it was a dragon named Bonko!!! WTF?) and it takes like 8 hours to beat him, so i beat him and everythings done. Then when it says do you want to save, i said yes, then it said u should save on a new file. I did that and then it said you should delete your previous file.(i was in a hurry so i wasn't really paying attention to what i was doing) I deleted my save file with the beaten dragon on it by accident!! I had to do it aaaallllllll over again!!! I got ssssoooooo fucking pissed at myself!

That's what export bots are for- when you can play expert bots fairly well (i.e 1:1 kill death ration or higher for you) you can play online. The after you've played online for a while you'll get even better and bots will be a joke even on expert (since humans are much more unpredictable than bots you'll still have a lot to learn online anyways- bots just improve reflexes and aim).

Not really a worst for me, but a worse for another guy i saw. Theres a game called tremulous (dunno if anyone knows) with aliens versus humans, and bases (kinda like avp meets counterstrike). Anyway, the first form of aliens, before evolving, are these little ankle biter alien things. Well, the bad part comes from, there was about 5 of us jumping off walls and chasing this one guy who all he had was a helmet and a rifle. It was hilarious. He had to have been having a bad day. The 5 of us were going at him from all angles. And only had a little bit of health each, but he died easy... it was great.
As for me, playing suikoden 5. Getting up to the end, getting all 108 people (took forever) having one team with good equipment. And the last 3 minibosses before the final boss splits you into 3 parties. And i had only well equipped 6 people out of the 18. I wasnt gonna spend another 5-6 hours to get them upped to decent equipment just to beat it. And countless counterstrike rounds where someone somewhere seems to always know where i am and kill me before i see them......
OOO playing digimon world 2 (make fun all you want). Its a hard, long game. I had about 99 + hours on it (i dont know the timer stopped) And accidentally saved a second file similar to the first. So i went in to delete it and didnt know the old playstations deleted duplicates. I deleted all my work. That was a very sad day.

GunZ's hackers drove me crazy when I didn't realize they were hackers. That game can reduce a man to tears when a noob butterflies you and shoots a ton of rockets at your corpse.

Morrowind: I put on adrenalin rush and almost get killed, then quicksave. Then it runs out and I die whever I load that game, so I had to spend like thirty lives trying to make a healing potion in time. And no, the autosaves wern't working for some reason.

My worst gaming experience didnt come when playing a game, it came when for some reason, my router(wireless net) just shot off. We bought a new one and it started working again fine, but there was one thing. With every router we bought since then, about 4, i have had about 20 through 25 packet loss, no matter how close i put my computer to it. Even plugging it directly from the router to the computer does the same thing, and plugging it from the modem to the computer. No one that has come to look at it can figure it out, and that means that all FPS games online are almost incapable of being played because of that packet loss. Like UT2004, BF2, Halo, GunZ, and more. This also means that I cant play Huxley online! FSCK

Playing Sonic 3 for the Mega Drive (Genesis), when he falls through the floor before the Hydrocity level, for some reason he just kept falling through a load of black and yellow pixels for ages. I got so scared I turned it off. Also on that game in the Ice Cap levels, he sinks really far down under the water and the same thing happened except he just kept sinking for ages without dying, which terrified me. In Sonic 1 he kept drowning in the Labyrinth levels and that gave me nightmares. I was young at the time.

Playing Capture the Kerotan in Grainy Gorki Labs on MGS: Subsistence. I swear, the red team at the stairs allways wins. There's no way to get that kerotan back in time! It's a really unfair flaw with the level...

I remember finally beating "Nam' Penn '86" in GTA: Vice City........ then I got hit with a random bullet and died! That mission was one of the toughest in the entire game!

Then there was one time when I played the game for 12 hours straight. I was so into it, I rarely bothered to save in between missions........ Then, my PS2 froze up on me! I had to restart it, and lost about 3 hours of successfully completed missions!
