Worst Game Experience?

[E-Man]

I can wholesomely agree with you. Besides the more generic first person shooter games (such as Cod of Duty), the EA sports games are another notable form of cancer in the world of video games. If you want to play these sports so badly, why not try them outside or something? Otherwise, if you don't want to risk getting dirty, then the least EA could do is release only a handful of sports games and leave it at that.

I suppose that would be any of the more recent mario titles in which multiple people can play at once, 3D World for the WiiU being the worst
The camera is pert near broken, and cooperation actually seems discouraged, what with all of the strange item, obstacle and enemy placements

The game ruins fun, no lie
I got into a fist fight over it

Co-op in a game shouldn't be so frustrating that you actually compromise to going back to the "your turn, my turn" structure

just a dick move on the devs part imo

I find this odd, my friend and I play this together sometimes and we rock that shit.

in due time, you'll find yourself picking your friend up and tossing him into a pit (i do this to cinemarella sometimes)

the co-op of the recent Mario games assume you really trust the people you're playing with
like, "i'd share my ice cream cone with them" level of trust
otherwise you'll be tossing each other into pits every other minute

i'd say DKC Returns' co-op platforming is a 200% better experience)

my worst? well

I think that would basically apply to any game that has its credits listed right in the main/options menu (because they've already ascertained that you'll never finish the game at that point - and after an hour or two with said game, it's true)

Okay, I love Fallout, I adore the games, they are great, but when your game literally saves you up in mid air in a glitch, and all you can do is fall and die, and have no other saves previous to this, you know something is wrong.

Unlocked everything in Tony Hawk Underground 2. Everything! I cleared every gap!

Save file corrupt. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

So yeah, that sucks. That and similar situations.

The worst gaming related experience I've ever had was when my little sister accidentally deleted my save file on Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. I put so much time into that game. It's something I secretly hold against her to this day even though we get along pretty well lol.

Sonic Adventure 7 and Sonic 3D Blast 5. Enough said.

Save file corrupt. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

I know what you mean. One time, a power outage caused my file in Spyro: A Hero's Tale to become corrupt. Also, if you complete a game with all the unlockables and then start a new one, you lose them all and have to unlock them again.

Playing the GC version of Majora's Mask with my friend would be so good... If it wasn't for the game freezing all the time. I hadn't experienced it much before that (except for Ocarina of Time freezing as I was about to finish the water temple with the last save being before I started the temple). We started the game and had played through the first three-day-cycle when it froze. Great, now we had to play through the whole intro, the most boring part of the game, all over again. So we restarted and it didn't freeze. Then we got to the swamp and it froze again, but it wasn't that bad, as the last save was just from a little bit before (we still had to go through the Deku Palace again, though). Then we finished the temple and got to the first save point in the mountains. A week later we continued our save. We did all the business before the temple and played until we were about 3/4ths through. Then the game crashed again. It would be so boring to do all the goron stuff and the temple all over again, so we gave up and have not played it since.

[E-Man]

I never played that version of the game, but I feel sorry you had to endure that. I'm not sure where i read this, but I heard that they did a bit of a sloppy job porting Majora's Mask onto the Gamecube. Thankfully, though, I do not think the Wii Version did not suffer any of the crashes.

[Paladin]

Yeah, the gamecube version is just a promo disc. The Wii version is great, but for some reason it stopped working. Link started constantly running to the left, even when I didn't push anything, and the c-buttons stopped working. Perhaps my Wii is just broken

Well, I have the N64 version anyway, so it's all good.

[E-Man]

Link started constantly running to the left, even when I didn't push anything, and the c-buttons stopped working.

A similar thing sometimes happens when I start my games in the n64 days and Gamecube days. I don't know how this happens, but sometimes, the character moves by itself, even though I didn't touch the control stick. Sometimes, I had to remove and reinsert the controller to get it back in working order, but other times, I need to turn the game off completely and try again.

[AuraLancer]

When you turn on a Gamecube, all control sticks on the connected controllers have their current position set to neutral. This means the controllers will act weird if you were leaning over one and unknowingly tilting a stick, or if you had the controller face down or something.

Also, after the controller has seen a lot of use with age, the control sticks might become a little wobbly in their neutral position. It could get bad enough that releasing the stick from a tilt might not send it back close enough to the calibrated neutral position for the Gamecube's liking.

Actually, my brother's Wii has similar abnormalities when using a GCN controller that works beautifully on my console.

Paladin, are you using the black Wii?

Like I have said before, being born in the Hispanic community and not knowing English, so, when I got one of the Ace Attorney games, you know that didn't go well.

[Iocus]

Well, I once put my Nintendo DS inside my backpack. At the end of the day, when I took it out, the upper screen had been crushed--I died a little.

Generally, I've had my save files erased after lending games and corrupt data errors way more often than I'd like...it's just as unpleasant everytime.
