"So you are saying I should not even bother with that game. I am thinking about renting this game to see what all the fuss is about. "
If you are willing to tolerate the fact that you can't move while aiming, It's worth checking out. I swear, some people either expected something as significant as RE4 or a return to "true survival horror".
As for calling BS, The last part of The Wind Waker where you have to find all the charts, pay tingle to decode them, and then sail around looking for the triforce shards was pretty retarded.
Far Cry 2. As soon as I started playing it I called BS. What does this game have to do with the FC series? (The PC version). Nothing. Ubisoft knew if the called it "Jungle Mercs Africa" (thats what it is) it wouldnt sell half as many coppies. I call BS because some commity at Ubisoft got together and realized they owned the Far Cry IP and copy/pasted the name onto the box.
Always having been a pretty well informed gamer, there's really only the one instance of wtf-ness I remember. Ending of Shenmue 1. Trailers FOR Shenmue 1 were pretty much 60% Shenmue 2, unbeknownst to me, so I expected about a bajillion times more content.
Remember when you beat Mizar in Jet Force Gemini and thought you beat the game, only to find out that you had to go back through all the old levels and find hundreds of hidden parts and teddy bear guys? And remember how it was super tedious and borderline impossible? I haven't met a single person who beat that game yet, and if you did, you used a guide.
The true boss in Persona 4. I won't spoil anything, but people who have done that fight knows how it ends, and I was cursing at my tv until I realized it was all a scripted event.
Also, the final boss in Prototype. That game was pretty awful and I just wanted to get it over with, had him down to almost no health and died. Saw that they made me redo the fight from the start even the stupid cutscene or whatever in the middle. Bullshit was the first thing out of my mouth....

Its not like the original Far Cry had a good story either.
Refighting all the bosses again at the end of a Capcom game. Or, more specifically, fighting all of the bosses three times in DMC4. They're good bosses, Capcom, but they're not that good.

I have no idea how, but my brother managed to finished the game without the usage of a guide back when it came out. It took him a while, but I don't think the time was longer than a year.
perfect dark zero fallout 3 original ending halo 3 single player far cry 2, from the beginning to the middle -- yes i stopped playing it. crysis - the middle is basically a tech demo guitar hero 3 difficulty.
Ha! So true. The fucking museum stage may be on of the most frustrating things in video games, having to go through it over and over to get the armor piece...
BTW, I'm not a fan of GB's new post interface... at all.
Zeromus spamming "Big Bang"... or whatever it was called on Final Fantasy IV. I hate that move with a strong passion. Especially on the GBA/DS version.
Freya on SO: Till the End of Time(no cheap items included).

I thought *MINOR PROTOTYPE SPOILERS* Elizabeth Greene */SPOILERS* was more bullshit than the final boss. Running up, using a devestator, running back into the crowd and consuming while dodging hunters and her attacks for half an hour got straight RIDICULOUS.
Assassin's Creed when Leap of Faith doesn't activate and you just jump to your death. Godfather 2 when you have all of your businesses taken away from you in a cutscene. The RPG/Helo bit at the end of COD4. Getting one-shotted with an AK from a guy so far away he isn't even a pixel yet, in any Ghost Recon game.
Ohh yeah. I forgot about that one. I guess I hated it so much I completely blocked it from memory.

RE5, the whole game, so much fuckind disappointment. :(( "

the game failed to deliver everything they promised, the story sucks, it's prettty much RE 4.5, the game is not scary at all, your partner AI sucks, the game is really short (shorter than RE4), and the games doesn't tight up loosen ends.
Jet Force Gemini. I had spent the entire game casually collecting the bears throughout the levels and ignoring the hard to get ones. The moment I get to the part where the leader bear told me the ship was nearly ready, I called bullshit once he told me to go back and collect the bears...all of them. Fuck. That. Shit.
" The Meat Circus level of Psychonauts. Apart from that the game is amazing and even that level is still a good concept, just poorly executed. "
This.
- The electric death wheel in the second to last Little Big Planet level. - (One I'm surprised no one has mentioned) playing Through The Fire And Flames for the first time.
