10 Annoying Video Game Moments That Made You Turn The Console Off

10. Stealth Suicide Bombers In Rainbow Six: Siege

Providing a genuinely difficult challenge for players either alone or with friends, Siege's Terrorist Hunt has you using the environment to your advantage to clear out a map full of enemies. It sounds simple enough, but the low-health-high-damage gameplay of the multiplayer is still in effect, making even one enemy deadly enough to take you down.

Which would be fine, if ridiculously tough suicide bombers weren't roaming the hallways. Storming at you as soon as you're in their line of sight, it takes sometimes as much as a full clip or a well-timed headshot to take these guys down before they blow you to smithereens. Not only that but they're equipped with regular weapons as well, so they can chip away at your health even if they don't get close enough to strike a crippling blow.

Also, if you crank the difficulty up to Realistic then you might as well just wave your sanity goodbye. Being bombarded by these heavy-breathing horrors is annoying enough on lower difficulties, but when a single one can easily force you to restart all over again you'll end up with a nice new controller-shaped hole in your wall.
