10 Video Games With The Tightest Timed Sections

6. Arms Dealing - Borderlands 2

The phrase "Arms Dealing" is enough to make most Borderlands fans shudder, if soothed slightly by the fact that it's only a side mission - albeit one that completionists will force themselves to slog through.

In Borderlands 2, Arms Dealing gives players just two minutes to pick up a series of five arms - yes, actual body parts - and then deposit them all in a P.O. box.

Even if you use a vehicle to speed your progress, the environment is so treacherous that it's still a practically Herculean feat.

Worse still, you also need to get back to Overlook before the timer expires, ensuring this mission is hair-pullingly difficult, even unfair.

Players can do themselves a favour by strategically placing a vehicle in Overlook and using the Catch-A-Ride feature to teleport there, but anyone hoping to do it the "legit" way is sure to be left mopping up their own salty tears.
