Your gaming pet hates

You know the things that just turn you off a game within the first ten minutes or so of playing.

Mine is definitely racing/driving games with floaty handling. I'm a great fan of these games when the handling is done correctly (Toca Touring Cars (PS1), Sega Rally (Saturn), F355 Challenge, Crazy Taxi & MSR (Dreamcast), to name but a few), but there is nothing that annoys me more than a racing game where you can't "feel" the car you are driving. An examples of this is Test Drive Le Mans on the Dreamcast. The game has great graphics, the A.I is great and you get plenty of opponents on track but the handling is too floaty, you don't feel as if you're really driving the car and you just end up spinning off all the time without any way of controlling it. Its just so disappointing to me when this happens and I don't understand how they let this type of thing pass when they are making the games.

Just to add also that uninspiring track selection on racing games is also very annoying, another thing that Test Drive Le Mans is unfortunately a victim of.

I hated it and still hate it when the cpu is unfair. Like when the AI is too dumb to play properly and they have to make it unfair to keep up with the player. Like in C&C the cpu would always be way faster when it comes to building his base and whatnot, then he just rushes and you lose. lol

Besides that I can´t think of much but yeah to stick to racing games. I used to play Indy Car Racing back in the day with a friend , we both had steering wheels and all that and we played for hours. You know 80 laps or so and then of course like 10 minutes before the race was finished the fuckin cpu player just crashes into you and you played for 1 1/2 hour just for nothing.. lol

I also hated it when great games had real nasty bugs that made the overall experience just worse. Especially on a console cause you couldn´t get any updates.

Cheating A.I does get on my nerves as well, especially in sports games when they do things that are impossible for you as the human player to actually do.

God of War is one of my favourite PS2 games, I beat it on all modes. God of War 2 looks to be just as good if not better
