    Things I hate about games

    I'm just playing through a few and there seem to so many gripes that seem to re-occur in lots of games, simple things that TBH we should be able to sort now.

    • AI that cheats with game mechanics
    • Getting stuck on gameworld objects
    • Waist height walls you cant climb over
    • Slugish controls (mainly console TBH)
    • Invisible walls

    Re: Things I hate about games

    Agree with you there completely.

    Dark Void managed to achieve 4 out of those 5, might have achieved the 5th if I'd been able to get any further

    Cheating AI has always driven me mental, it's just a lazy excuse for poor coding in my opinion. If you can make the enemy intelligent enough to win, give it an inherent advantage. So many games are guilty of that though, it's unreal.

    Re: Things I hate about games

    Speaking of Unreal (well the series in general), a friend of mine and I used to joke about the Godlike AI being able to shoot you in the eye through a BSP cut with a single pistol shot from clear across the map, and kill you with full armour and health.

    It really is ridiculous sometimes.
