Mr E

Rules
- The "What The F**k Were They Thinking" Award on any machine or console!
- You're playing a game and it has a flaw that just drives you nuts. An unskippable cutscene which you see 20 times because you can't get past the bit after it. A stupid controls decision that makes you want to throw your joypad through the TV screen. Excessive loading times. A stupid achievement/trophy. A really annoying enemy. A great game with a terrible terrible final boss. Something about a good game that stops it from being a great game.

Assassin's Creed II -

the 'let us skip two chapters and make it DLC' debacle

(a low, cynical point of an otherwise great game)

Arkham Asylum -

The Joker final boss

. Really Rocksteady? (same as above!)

Assassin's Creed 2 :

The final battle against the pope. Massive WTF!

Lands Leaving

Call of Duty MW2 - The whole single player mode. Too short, crap and insane story. The rubbish no russian level which was just terrible, controversy aside, it was awful in terms of plot and pacing.

Demon's Souls. Europe. Hello?!

Pushing loads of Q4 2009 titles to Q1 2010. We had **** all games in November/December and are left with every game under the sun coming out between January and March 2010.

Sony. PSPgo. €250/$250. L. O. L. Sure I love mine but I doubt many people could justify that purchase.

New Super Mario Bros Wii: Everyone else pausing for a second if one person dies, it can completely mess up the timing of your jumps

Scribblenauts: Tapping the screen to walk, move items and activate items is a disaster at times, surely there was a better way?
