8. Red Dead Redemption - Wild Horses, Tamed Passions
A crowning achievement from Rockstar Games, Red Dead Redemption just draws you in and has a way of bringing enjoyment to every aspect of the Old West. That is, apart from one mission which mostly consists of breaking in horses. Why Its Annoying: Compared to the typical glorious levels and gameplay, this compulsory mission is the only part of the game that feels at all unwieldy. Considering its the first time youre expected to lasso a wild horse at speed, get off your horse whilst still holding the lasso, get on the wild horse and play a balancing game for about a minute while the horse bucks around, having to do it 3 times AND herd a load of horses a good distance is quite a chore. I know annoying is relative here, but compared to the epic Mexican army missions its certainly not the finest moment. http://youtu.be/OyVCxz8LibE
