10 Cruel Tricks Video Games Played On FPS Players

Dealing with AI sidekicks in GoldenEye 007 is just a massive pain in the ass in general, and though we all know how frustrating it can be to keep Natalya Simonova alive during her escort missions, she's also got a deeply vengeful streak which can actually stop you from progressing.

In the late-game mission Control, players will encounter the malevolent hacker Boris Grishenko, who will run away from Bond while shouting, "I am invincible!"

At this point you may be unable to resist the urge to cap Boris, but if you do so before meeting up with Natalya, she'll later tell you that she saw what you did and refuse to help you open the doors needed to continue the mission.

This effectively triggers a Game Over, then, as you're now unable to progress any further through the level without Natalya's aid.
