10 Game Over Screens That Pissed You Off The Most
You died. Didn't you know?

And though some games are well-humoured enough to deliver entertaining fail states that don't leave players tearing their hair out - think Mortal Kombat's fatalities or Grand Theft Auto's "wasted" screen - many sadly go the entirely opposite direction.
These 10 games, whether bonafide masterworks, cult classics or minor titles you've probably never heard of, all had the gall to leave players fuming, either by actively insulting them for failing or serving up a Game Over screen that, in its repetition, became unbearably obnoxious.
