In games, of course.
What's the one thing that always puts a downer on that new game you just got. The one thing you thought they might have left out?
Mine is being rushed. I like to take my time and explore the place properly, not have to rush through against the clock - missing a lot of stuff out and making me feel as though I've not done everything.
And I hate not doing everything.
Bit of a perfectionist when it comes to games.
My problem stems from those under-water levels in Sonic on the Master System. There's so many different places to go and secret things to collect but you get about 10 seconds to do so. It reallt psssed me off then, and it still does now on the roms I have (and always delete after 24 hours: ))
More recently, playing Timesplitters2, there's a few levels (Atom Smasher, Space Station) where you're against a clock and have to just leg it everywhere on Hard mode - not stopping to clear the pace out completely.
Why?
It may add a extra level of urgency into the game but I really couldn't care less. But then again, I suppose some people actually like being up against the clock.
Maybe.
Weirdos.
And, after having a go at Ratchet & Clank the under-water breath thing is already really, really starting to annoy me. Although there is a oxygen-mask apparently, so this may be solved.
Sure, it adds realism but it's just not very fun in my opinion.
Yours?
Go ahead, what really bugs the hell out of you?
Ithankyouverymuch,

Ahem.
I like Jedi Knight 2, it's good, if you're thinking it's a bit dull, wit until you unlock the other jedi moves.
AJ, stop going on about Mario Party 4, yes it's good, and yes I have it, and yes i am playing it right now, well by brother is anyway, just thought i'd rub it in.
:D
THAT, was p*ssing off. :-D
