Let's see...it annoys me when there's extra crap that you have to do in order to set up your game system and establish a wi-fi connection (I even bought a USB port for it and it still won't work!!!!).

As for PC gaming, I hate it when people cheat. I remember I was playing Age of Empire and five - ten minutes into the game, I checked the other players' progress just to see how they're doing...and what do I see? A very big civilization!

- When people say: "Eww WoW sucks! It's such a shitty game! WoW is stupid!" Gee... I wonder why over 10 million people play it, and it's the best selling MMORPG of all time...?

- Chinese gold farmers... GTFO!

- "Xbox 360 ONLY has first person shooter games! I hate the Xbox 360!" First off your making a generalization. Second off, I'll gladly read you a long list of games that aren't FPS k thx bye. (Ex. Mass Effect, Lost Odyssey, Beautiful Katamari, Eternal Sonata <--- Those are exclusives by the way. =D)

- When people say: "Ewww I hate the Wii/GameCube/Nintendo! It's only for little kids." I love it, especially when little kids say that about Nintendo.

- Fan boys/Fan girls.... Shut up

- The graphics this the graphics that! Sure, graphics are nice but no matter how awesome the graphics are the game still could be shit... Game play wise. Heck, the Wii has the worst graphics compared to the Xbox 360 and the PS3 and guess what!? It's the best selling console right now!

- Sony pulled that fucking bullshit with the 80gig only being backwards compatibility. Good fucking job Sony. *spits on them*

I'd have to say I agree with Cerridwen. I'm loving Xbox 360 and Wii over Sony right now... That's another thing that ticks me off in gaming... I seriously doubt that Sony CAN'T afford to get backwards compatability and a lower price for the PS3, just basing off of the sales of the PS2 and all the games for it.

To be truthful, companies that make consoles aren't supposed to get massive amounts of money for console. No, they rake it in with the games. But the fact that Sony is even lowering the price of the PS3 suggests that they know their price-gouging isn't selling to the gamers. So they lower the price... But, what then?! They take out backwards compatability so then people will have to buy new PS2's when their current ones die (mine's probably on it's way out) or people who never had a PS2 that want to play PS2 games would have to buy another whole console on the side of the STILL EXPENSIVE PS3!

And people who suggest that 'xbox 360 only has FPSes' annoy me too... You've got Blue Dragon, Mass Effect, Oblivion, Fable 2, Age of Conan, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic: Elements, Deus Ex 3, Enchanted Arms, Eternal Sonata, Fallout 3, Final Fantasy XI, Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom, The Last Remnant, The Lord of the Rings: The White Council, Lost Odyssey, Naruto: Rise of a Ninja, Ninety-Nine Nights, Phantasy Star Universe, Phantasy Star Universe: Ambition of the Illuminus, Precursors, Rise of the Argonauts, Too Human, Two Worlds, Two Worlds: The Temptation. Count them up, and those are only the RPGs for the Xbox 360! And hell, there are rumors about a Blue Dragon II as well! Also, not to mention Mass Effect and Too Human are planned to be trilogies!

As for the Wii, I love that system as well... The only thing I hate about the Wii is the lack of third-party games. I would get a Wii just for playing old nintendo games, though, myself. ^^

I hate what Square-Enix did to the FFX storyline. Who was the retard who said that making a Charlie's Angels themed FF would be a good idea?

I also hate excesive (obligatory) sidequests, ok is FFXII repetitive side quests which drive us mad

Oh and let's not forget that the Final Boss of FFXII was easy, they totally ruined Vayne

-I hate it when people have never played a game before but they keep insisting that it sucks and they hate it. Honestly, you won't know until you've played the game. And if you don't want to play it then please shut the fuck up, thanks.

-I also can't stand fanboys/girls who don't respect other people's opinions but they want to constantly ram their opinion down everyone's throat.

-Fanboys/girls in general kind of annoy me.

-I mentioned this in another thread but I really can't stand guys who dismiss my opinions on games because I'm a girl.

-Also when guys tell me I won't like a game because I'm a girl.

-People who look at me funny when I browse the NES section at the local used bookstore or flea market. Yes, I still play my NES.

-People who think Nintendo systems are only for kids.

At any rate, that's all I can think of for now.

The main thing that ticks me off is waiting for games to come out. Another thing is when games are when games are put off like how Final Fantasy XIII was supposed to be released before Christmas, and yet it isn't out yet.

I get irritated by all this rubbish about how one console is better than the other. They're all great for different reasons.

I also get REALLY annoyed at how many great games are never released over in UK. Sure we might be a small country but we still play ****ing games, right? So throw us a fricking bone here. I HAD to buy Etrian's Odyssey because there's little or no chance it'll ever get a UK release. Also bought Front Mission for DS because that may never be released here either.

I hate people that automatically think a game is rubbish without playing it. I'd read bad reviews for Socom Tactical Strike for example. People were slagging it off because it's nothing like Socom Fireteam. Well, you know what? I've got Tactical Strike AND Fireteam Bravo 2 and I think Tactical Strike is much better. To be honest, I don't like it's run and gun style of play. Maybe because most special forces don't run on the battlezone......because they'd die in 5 seconds.

I also find that paying online fees are a tad too much. Not only do you pay for a game, but you're then forced to pay a fee to actually play that game. Why can't it be free? I'd love to try WOW as I'm a big fan of Warcraft/Starcraft but the fact that I'd have to pay more money just so I can play it is putting me off.

Finally, I'm right royally pissed off with Sony and there decision to discontinue their 60gb PS3. I was hoping to get one as a late Christmas present but because they're no longer available, I'll have to settle for a 40gb. Sony sure want to shoot themselves in the foot. I know they're a business but I'm sure people wont want to buy a PS3 AND a PS2. I mean they done a good job with the BC for PS2 so why should the PS3 be that much harder? They already done it with the original PS3 but for some reason they think we Europeans don't own any PS2 games at all. Although I like the Playstations, I have forseen Sony's fall from grace ever since they released the UMD films so this doesn't come as a shock. It just pisses me off that I loose out on something that SHOULD have been standard in the PS3. Sony are just greedy *******s who don't really care about their gamers.

Amen

Besides, it is not the graphics that matter completely, is the whole quality of the games released on those consoles that matters at all. I would prefer to play some good old 2D graphic game instead of an amazing 3D game with realistic graphics and a shit of a storyline
