What's your list of things that piss you off?

I hate games that are sequels of games from the previous generation
but don't really add very much new to the mix such that it seems
you're simply playing a slightly graphically enhanced rehash of the
previous games.

Care to guess which title I'm referring to?

:-)

I also hate the endlessly (well, kind of) spawning enemies in Call of
Duty games. In certain situations, enemies will continue to appear in
place of ones that you kill until you move up to a specific point on
the map at which point your buddies will suddenly charge forward and
immediately take out all the enemies who will stop respawning.

I'm also not thrilled with games that include quests that require you
to back track over and over again to the same locations or to travel
to many different locations in succession where you only do one small
little task in each location.

I for one hate invisible walls,

example you see an excellent sniper spot on a ledge do you best to
climb up there with carefully timed jumps and hops and you finally
make it to what looks like an awesome snipe spot complete with foilage
for great cover only to realize there's a damn invisible wall
preventing you from going any further.

Or how about games where your a super soldier ,able to dish out
extreme damage to enemies the size of small buildings and withstand
direct bullets to the chest, only to come to a 2 foot high wall and
you can't even jump over it? WTF?
