I hate it when really enjoyable games start to suck because of one point where you just can't get any further. Take Darkstar One for example. I love the brainless flying and shooting and repetive exploring of star systems. It's all allright to me no matter what the critics say. But what's up with that second flak gun mission? It's too hard, too annoying and just no fun after a million or so tries. It made me mad, and then sad. Now I try not to think about it anymore, and here I just failed.

Same goes for the final level of Psychonauts. It's an awesome and brilliant game, but damn that last burning fence at the top of the final circus tent. I will try that one again soon, but my nerves are not yet cooled down enough.

Rainbow Six 3 is damn hard, to the point of pissing me off when some dude sneaks up behind me even though I caused a blitzkrieg where he came from. That, and the stupidity of the hostages. If you can handle those small annoyances, it is actually a damn good game.

Dearest Contract J.A.C.K,

You are too short and the people who play you on multiplayer seem to have severe learning disabilities.

Love, Me.

P.S To be fair though, your ending sequence is one of my favourite ever.

Digging this up to vent some rage.

Dear every frigging RPG ever,

I suck at organising stuff in my inventory. Please give me either more space or less crap to pick up. I am a born hoarder, I can't help picking stuff up. I'm trying to play Fallout and this is killing me.

Yours sincerely,

Me.

Dear X-Wing Alliance

I must admit I installed you on my hdd with anticipation. You looked so promising in single player, letting me get a feeling of being someone in the SW universe, destined for glory and fame. Soon, however, this uncomfortable feeling started creeping up on me, that the introductionary missions, training missions if you will, were just there to promise all that would never come. For each mission, it became clearer that the only, and I mean only, thing that would happen, was that you would hand out a poor excuse to have me sitting there taking out more and more enemy fighters, up to the point where it became ridiculous and the entire SW feeling evaporated along with my shields. When I, in a single ship, had to face the entire Empire, I saw through you: You had nothing, no idea, no story to swallow, no nothing. You, my good game, is not a game, but a neverending, terrible joke with no punchline.

Hope not to hear from you again

MM

Medal of honour allied assault. WTF?! I just shoot you 5 times with a thompson MG and you are just sitting stunned on the floor like i smacked you hard in the face or something. they are suppose to be real bullets in that SMG. and the game is supposed to simulate them. instead they act as some rubber bullets. to add an injury to the insult there is not blood. WTF?!?!?!?!!?

Well, eventually there's another X-Wing Allience type game which is less known but in my opinion, much better, and it's called X-Wing versus TIE Fighter. If you want a bit tougher AI, or competing with others across a much more stabil connection, then it's your game.
