I love Fallout 3, but those fire ant things are just kicking my butt. They keep setting my suit on fire . . .

Stupid Jak and Daxter 2! I'm at the point where I have to press the buttons the wizard shoots up from the basket to "prove my worthiness!". What the heck? I can kick butt in the rest of the game, but I can't get past this little, probably meaningless, spot! You ... make ... me ... want ... to ... toss ... my ... controller ... to ... the ... dog ... and ... throw ... the ... PS2 ... out ... the ... window!

And there's no darn cheat for it, either!

On another note: This one time, at band camp ...

Ninja Gaiden for the NES.

You know it, don't you? The last boss? The one, that if you lose in it, you're thrown back three damned levels.

Once upon a time I played GTA Vice City ...and paid no money to do so. But later I saw a 10,- EUR re-release at the club my mother was in, and where she had to buy something each quarter. She had no interest in the books offered there anymore, but didn't opt out for a long time, though. So this was one of the common what-do-we-buy?!-what-do-we-buy?! visits at the shop at the end of a quarter, to not get sent some random expensive new publication for not buying something within time. So I killed three birds with one stone, and purchased the game. Now the right moment had come to play Vice City again, with walkthrough to do all there is to. Play, play play. Play, play, play. Well, but when I began the mission where the Dodo is spawn the very first time in the game, and approached the spawn point, and the Dodo should appear and fall onto the water from low height ...the common dreaded GTA exception failure! Spawning the Dodo results in an exception failure! That's what you get when you are an honest p(l)ayer!

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.

There are no Dodos in Vice City, there's only the Skimmer after you complete the mission "Dildo Dodo".

Well, I finally robbed Caligula's Casino, now to get 100% with all the girlfriends and have some coffee.....

The Skimmer is the Dildo Dodo!

Yes, I know. But, I didn't say the Skimmer wasn't the Dildo Dodo.
