10 Most Annoying Video Game Characters Ever

8. Crystal and Amber Bailey (Dead Rising 2)

There€™s only one thing worse than a ridiculously hard boss level, and that is one with two bosses. A lot of the psychopaths in Dead Rising 2, whilst difficult for protagonist Chuck to take down, are not particularly annoying. A man in a gimp suit with a giant pink chainsaw is not too much of a problem. A young mascot with a giant plastic head, on roller skates, dual-wielding flamethrowers is actually relatively easy to take down. Two glamorous sisters with large swords? Nigh on impossible to defeat. The problem doesn€™t come from the shuffling zombies who accidentally stumble into this epic battle: they€™re just a side-show. The issue is that, as you try and deal with one of the murderous sisters, the other will slice your back like sashimi. They might not have been quite so annoying if they hadn€™t mocked Chuck for his disappointing performances, both in his zombie-killing game show and, implicitly, with other women. They€™re faster than him, probably better armed than him, and they hate his guts. But the real kicker comes once you do somehow manage to bring one of them down, because the other sister commits suicide. You don€™t even get the satisfaction of killing them both.
