1. a time limit always pisses me off. I like to play a level at my own pace, don't want the computer to rush me!
2. making it too easy to quit. Accidentally (when you're stuck somewhere and get frustrated) anwering "yes" when it asks "Quit, are you sure? yes/no".
3. collecting stuff (100 coins or whatever), and already having 99 coins... and then not being able to find the last one... aaargrh!
4. underwaterlevels where you run out of breath too quickly.
5. camera that won't cooperate.

shit you covered most of them
I would simple add shit AI team members. tactical games where you have to control a team, everytime you play the mission, it is pure chance if your guys are a help or burden to you.

Kickin ass in a game, in a critical part then the game quits. Either for no reason at all, an illegal operation, or it just wants to fuck with you.

1. being stuck at a hard part of the game (rare are the games that doesn't have that plague!).
2. being stuck at a hard part of the game (again, because it annoys me so much).
3. annoying music.. or no music at all (GTA 3 and Vice City combine both! very strong!!)
4. bugs. (for example, wipe'out"64 was a great game but the super combo challenge is bugged, you can't get any of the last medals so you can't finish the fucking game... it is still one of my favorites though... and wipeout fusion, which i can't save because, and only with that games, the file disappears on the memory card. fuck wipeout.)
5. unskippable and unpauseable cinematics (Metal Gear Solid... FFX...)

the new controls in first person shooters. à la time splitters 2 (opposed to old ones à la goldeneye/perfect dark, where it was intuitive), even though it isn't the worst example.
i hate it.

How could I have forgotten the dreaded timelimit or the underwater levels.
Thanks for reminding me surrounded, they belong up there indeed.
As for online-gaming annoyances it would go: 1. Lag/packetloss 2. N00bs 3. Cheaters 4. Getting owned constantly 5. people flaming all the time, degrading what could have been a pleasant experience.

1. Newish games that are meant to be an experience and not a challenge.
2. Go there, get that, and bring it back gameplay. 3. Bad playcontrol 4. Having to use a sword that protrudes directly from your body and is no longer than an inkpen.
5. Long load and save times.

"Every sane person on Earth hates Counterstrike." - how so? i think most people who play cs also like a bit of Q3 arena action as well, or some other kind of manic fragging game.
the only way you can hate cs is if you have 56k and that sniper on the roof has cable.

the best thing to do on counterstrike is lead a hostage out into the open after stabbing them so their health has almost gone. set up your team nearby on a roof with rifles. when the ct comes to rescue the hostage, shoot the hostage just as the ct gets there. the ct will panic and most do hilarious things because they havent got a clue what just happened. normally they run a full circle looking for what the hell happened, then they stop to look at the hostage, trying to figure out how it just died(works best if the sniper aims for the hostage's foot-since ct wont see any blood) and bang, let them have it. try it:)

1. the stupid things characters start to do when you let them stand still (rayman playing basketball with his torso, keen reading a book)
2. difficult jumpy jump parts where you have to start from the beginning if you fall, and usually run a long way back to the start point
3. the fact i suck at most games
4. the ufo disaster in sim city
5. illogical adventure games

heh i love it when characters do things by themselves ;)
1 trying to do a first person game WITH a mouse 2 no save game...passwords may be ok but i hate games where u must start from level 1 every time
3 gameboy games that u played in black and white and are now in colour, and the colours are all different to what u imagined they would be
4 any game that only lets you play or make changes if you type in the 3rd word on page 15 on the maunal, but of cource you dont have it coz you didnt buy the game legit
5 when you do acheat that puts you into an impossible situation that you couldnt have got into if u didnt cheat, eg walking through walls and suddenly wondering where the heck you are
6 all command n conquer type games, too confusing 7 not knowing what to do next and wondering around aimlessly
