Well it seems that those old games have a set of rules in the programming that that they more or less abide by. Though, fighting M. Bison at the end of Street Fighter 2 still sucked. But yeah, Mlb the show with its RNG and the randomly adjusted sliders in moments and such, makes for a very infuriating experience.
Balrog would give me fits at times.

With every fielder apparently being Willie Mays and Ozzie Smith, cheap AI comebacks, no control pitchers that can't throw strikes in every moment and inconsistent hitting results...it made me reminisce about my history in gaming. Battletoads, Mike Tyson final boss, Sonic Labryinth Zone and TMNT NES water stage come to mind...but this game def. takes top 5 for me now. Congrats SDS
Oh yeah, TMNT underwater takes me back. I finished this game with the Game Genie by the end I was so tired; can’t remember if it was Shredder or Krang that gave me fits in the final battle. The other thing I never understood with that game is why they had two types of enemies that were random when you entered a building. They was also a place where you couldn’t jump over a small hole because you’d bump your head and fall in, until a friend told me you had to walk over it. Spent days yelling at the tv; maybe even crying since I was maybe 8 or 9 then lol?

I'm just starting that one, the base game. They gave it away for free not too long ago

A dude that bunted every pitch for 8 innings before finally quitting. It almost worked for him thanks to RNG AI fielding even when set to bunt defense with SS/2B in.

Haha TMNT water stage is so much easier as an adult. But as a 4-5 year old? Omg I got so angry. That game is still hard though unless you farm this ranged weapon for the hallway before shredder.
Honestly, this year's show is probably the most frustrated I've been playing a game since playing final fantasy 11 and trying to get the RNG to give me a reward from turning on a super rare/expensive fish.

Fighting the boar in assassins creed odyssey was rough. I tried an rpg called kingdome come and the combat was way to difficult and annoying. But yes this game is super frustrating.

I don't know why but Ninja Gaiden2 come to mind

Enemy #1: Manually putting in all the players’ names in Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball for hours only for your Nintendo system to malfunction and erase all your work.
Enemy #2: Playing for an hour on PunchOut to get to Mike Tyson and then getting pummeled in 5 seconds.
Enemy #3: Blowing on the bottom of your Nintendo cartridge that you can’t get to function and strategically trying 30 different variations of inserting your game cartridge basically the same way.

Oh, and in Double Dragon 2 when you had to jump up those stupid conveyor belts, and the jump mechanic sucked. So you’d make it all the way there and get like two lives to try to figure it out, and then you’d have to start from the beginning when you inevitably plummeted to your death.

Lego Star Wars TCS. Did you guys ever try the pod race level or the anakin vs obi wan level on mustafar?

I lost a game in extra innings recently when i struckout guy in the dirt with 2 outs an then catcher decided to throw the ball 20 feet over the first baseman head into rightfield an winning runs scored.
Shortstop throwing ball 3 feet to 2nd base an pulls him off the bag, next batter hr an lose

Any check swing game from 20 was unbearable.

This post incorrectly assumes that I care enough about wins or losses to get aggravated. If your reaction to a loss is anything more serious than shrugging and maybe having a quick laugh at yourself, then you're taking this way too seriously.
I don't waste my time getting all worked up about RNG, comeback logic or whatever silly excuse gets thrown around by people who aren't mature enough to just accept that someone was better than them at a video game. When I lose it's because my opponent outplayed me. Nothing more and nothing less.
You cared enough to post.

That game in the tunnel driving those flying cars or whatever they were was aggravating but that game was a blast. Even the pause music was great lol

Without a doubt, Brink was the worst.
