What was your worst video game experience?
Some gym battle just way too tough (And only uses paralyze)
An unbelievable grind just for some simple item?
A level that is just unfair and unforgiving?
Glitches galore? completely unplayable?
What is yours? (Wait I could just also make this topic but for pokemon if it hasn't been done yet.)
Mine is probably welcome to the machine from Echo. If I am saying the name right. In it, you are a dolphin, and this level is filled with instant kill spots and some really annoying foes. What makes it better in the U.S version, they for some reason, decided to remove the checkpoint in the level. This is the final level so it makes sense right? Once you get to the boss, if you die at all, which it can be very easy to thanks to the bosses attacks and instant kill attacks, you have to go replay Welcome to the machine once again.

Oh good grief. I have a couple of them.
1- Playing Ghosts n' Ghoblins, one of the hardest games ever.
2- Various levels and bosses from Dynamite Headdy, another annoying game. For example, this one boss fight where you had to climb a bunch of stairs just to hit the boss. Sounds easy, right? Nope. You have to time it just right because otherwise he'll attack you and remove some stairs and you'll have to wait again. That is only one of them and the rest of them get worse as you go on.
3- The 6th boss of Ristar. You can't hit it like the rest of the bosses, but you have to throw hot stuff just as it opens its mouth. Oh, you didn't get perfect timing on it? Too bad, now you lose 1 out of your 4 hit points. Very, very annoying.
4- The final boss of Megaman 7. Oh gosh I'm getting PTSD of thinking about it. He has a super annoying and very hard-to-dodge attack pattern. (Take note there are 2 phases to the fight, and I'm talking about the 2nd one)
5- Desert Bus. 10 hours of staying awake and driving through the never-changing desert! Be careful if you hit a rock, because if you do, you have to get towed all the way back! (Let's say you drove for 5 hours, you have to get towed for 5 hours!)
3- Running out of time during a cutscene/boss fight in Sonic. Explains itself, yep...

I was actually thinking of trying out ghost and goblins sometime.
Also here is a video I found of welcome to the Machine. From Ecco the dolphin. Yes I misspelled it's name in the title.
Ah yes. An almost six minute auto scroll level.
Fun fact if you want to play this level, don't. But if you still do, when you start the game, and you enter only the letter N in the password screen. You are forced to go to this level.

Mine actually happened just the other day.
I had just gotten Mario Party Superstars and was excited to play it but my girlfriend didn't want to play at the time so I played online with randos. The map was Yoshi's Tropical Island which according to the game is the easiest map. Throughout the game I was in fourth place. It was already getting on my nerves, not to mention everyone else already had at least one star while I had none. There were a few times that I would get only a few spaces away from the star and someone or myself would land on an event space which takes the star from one of the map and moves it to the complete other side. But eventually on like the second to last turn I got a lucky roll and was able to pass the star. I was celebrating my newly collected star until my dice roll continued on past the star and onto a Bowser space. The game spun for what consequence I would have and wouldn't you know it Bowser took one of my stars. The entire game I had no stars except for when I got and lost a star in the same turn. I was just about ready to refund the game lol.

After playing on unofficial CS servers, GO has problems with the game very often. When you log on to an unofficial server, it downloads various add-ons. Because of incorrect additions, various kinds of errors and a decrease in computer performance can occur. Often your main config gets lost, your radar disappears, or the mouse's sensitivity changes, etc. You need to reinstall the game in such cases, but first, completely delete it. I'm already tired of reinstalling the game and doing trade rust skins. This is some nightmare...

Pokemon Vega, although having a lot of cool designs, is quite grindy, plus the one I was playing had a glitch where a wall was supposed to disappear after defeating a gym, and it didn't so I had to use a walk through walls cheat, and even then I couldn't do somethings because the game would softlock and crash. I don't want to start over because of the grinding, but I don't think I can continue because of the crashing and the gym has this super overpowered Pokemon and the wild Pokemon I have to grind off of barely give any XP. Yikes.
