There's always that one hazard you hate in a video game. The fire ball shooters in Kirby, Nightmare in Dreamland, self-destructing Gravelers, electric chu's in Skyward Sword... whenever you see that enemy that ALWAYS gets you you say, "aww crap... here we go".

So whats a particularly annoying videogame enemy that you always have a hassle with?

Every zubat beyond the first one. It is totally unnecessary, and I have never actually had to train on multiple zubat. There are some annoying bomb throwers in Dark Souls too. Oh, and the semi-large guys with the spears in Drakengard 3. All of them are excessively annoying. 

I just played Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland on my smartphone and one enemy I always have trouble with is the UFO. It's a great thing as an ability but the UFO itself can really hurt you as it moves randomly. I also have trouble with Meta Knight as his moves depend on how you move.

And yeah, the fire ball shooters trouble me too sometimes.

Obama. He's an enemy that has been screwing all Americans over for the past 6 years. Oh you meant an enemy in a VIDEO GAME! Oh. Well then I will have to say Whitney and her Miltank. Hardest gym leader ever.

The chainsaw man in Zombies Ate My Neighbors. That guy is insanely OP. I'd rather face twenty Zombies coming from all sides than have one chainsaw man in a level.

The Hammer Bros. in Super Mario Bros, and Super Mario Bros. 3. Those guys get me more often than not. They scare me, which makes me second guess my every move, which in turn makes me get killed by them, which makes me...scared of them. Hmm...

The final boss of the first two Tak games. No fun.

Finally, any enemy that can kill my character in one or two hits, but takes twenty hits to kill. For example, the second boss in Ninja Spirit on the TG 16.


I could list more, but this is all I can think of on short notice. Nice thread by the way.

You know who always screws me over? UR MOM?Hammer Bros. I'm starting to get better at dodging their hammers, but I still get hit by them quite a bit. I mean, come on! They throw hammers at you that have large hitboxes and pass through any solid object (except Mario and Luigi, either that or they're gas/liquid). They also like to randomly jump down to the next set of blocks right when you're running there. I just hate them.

tgags123 : You hate him just because you're jealous of his perfect teeth.

darkrai......oh my guacamole, darkrai. not only does this thing have dark void. but in addition, its fast. very fast. not as much as others, but if you're not prepared or just flat out unlucky, prepare to mash the a button on your 3ds so hard your finger goes numb and the button flattens. My apologies to anyone who loves darkrai, but this thing is a nightmare.


Pun quota for this week: Met.

tgags123 : Best...Vizzed post...ever.

The enemy I can't stand...proabably the Hammer Brothers. They're in such inconvenient spots!

If it counts, Fire from FTL: Faster than Light. When your ship gets set on fire really badly it's pain to extinguish it. All of your crew members are useless at putting it out so you have to reduce the oxygen levels of your ship by opening doors. The problem is, is that your crew can't breathe if there is no oxygen so you have to store them all into one room. But for some reason fire always seems to start in or near the oxygen tank room so not only is the ship on fire but even if you extinguish it, you're crew will die before you can rebuild the oxygen tank!!!

GRRR

For an action game, it would the famous RED ARREMER (or red gargoyle) from ghost 'n goblin series, I have played the whole castlvania series and there's no enemy that can come close to it. Also, the damn eagle in Ninja Gaiden 1....while it dies in one hit....in 6-2 there is a platform where you jump and an eagle spawns above you to knock you to the hole, so you kill it but then it INSTANTLY respawns to hit you back and knock you to the hole....did I mention that there was another enemy in the platform you're suppose to get to?

As for an RPG game, it's Greater Demon in the Wizardry series....not because it's the strongest enemy (actually, it's far from the strongest), but because this guy seems to appear everywhere in the series (duh!), and when it does I always say to myself: "Well I'm dead, might as well restart the game". But what has recently happened to me was torturing....in Wizardry Gaiden 1, THEY HAVE ADDED GREATER DEMON AS AN SIDE ENEMY IN A BOSS FIGHT....uhhhh....the horrors......*Drops Dead*

The lovely Bezerkers in XCOM: Enemy Unknown. See one they run towards you, shoot it he runs towards you, most likely instant kill you if you probably made your soldier dash to it's location making him an open target for a melee attack.

Medusa heads in all of the original-style Castlevania games. Those buggers are annoying and the cause of oh so many deaths

I always get screwed over by the Big Eyes in Mega Man. They're massive powerhouses who are difficult to avoid. Even with special weapons, they're a huge pain, especially in the later stages.
