Ahaha!  That list brings back lots of (bad) memories.

15. Infinite enemies without infinite ammo/resources = intense hatred

14. Dealing with this now in DA: Origins.  I completely missed the 10-slot expansions early on, and those first 2 towns are not accessible anymore.  I also drove away a merchant without intending to.  Looks like I'm stuck with 110 slots, which is not too bad.  I still hate being on a long dungeon trudge without any way to reach a vendor.

13.  Hehe!  I had one of those, with a shoehorned 20 MB hard drive.

12.  *Groan*  The stupid double tap on the analog stick used to make you roll in Dead Rising very nearly killed that game for me.  Problem is that I modulate my analog stick inputs instinctively to get extra precision out of the little short-throw things.  Unbelievable frustration.

11.  See 12.

9.  Yep.  Time to start over.  Sometimes just a few hours from the beginning are enough to rattle the gray cells, and get you back up to speed on your forgotten progress.

7.  I want escort missions to be part of the rating box of all games.  "M - Mature, escort missions required", for example.

6.  See 7.

4.  Been a while, but yeah.  That's the worst.

3.  Fuck everyone at Bethesda who knew about, and never fixed, a bug in Shivering Isles that kills the entire main quest line there (the felldew bug).

2.  I want a warning about this garbage as part of the game rating too.

1.  Hahaha!
