There's nothing worse than getting an itchy nose during a crucial part of a game, especially if it cannot be paused because it's online. Sod's law dictates that the second you take your hand off the controller to scratch your nose, that's when a player will blast you in the face in CoD, and if you're playing something like Guitar Hero or Rock Band, you're going to have to make an executive decision: play through the pain, get somebody else to scratch your nose for you, or take the hit and lose a few points. There's a fair chance you've now frantically itching your entire body after reading this, and that's the problem: once you think about it, it only gets worse. Take those precious nano-seconds you might find while playing to quickly take care of the problem and hope that it doesn't return. Did we miss any nagging gaming problems?
