16 Worst Video Game Levels Of The Decade (So Far)

9. Sniper - The Last Of Us

Yes, yes, The Last of Us is perfect, I know. And it is... except for certain shooter sections when it really wants to introduce more challenging elements. Then, it starts getting a little more annoying, and especially with the sniper section where one bullet will kill you on higher difficulties, it's just infuriating.

With no real way of discerning where you're safe from fire or exposed at range, controlling Joel was always geared towards tackling threats in a stealthy manner, one that let you approach enemies one by one, siphon them off or work through an environment carefully.

Here, amongst the dilapidated houses and broken debris, you're forced to move between cover faster to stay alive, opening you up to instant death or other enemies waiting in the wings. It wasn't impossible to get through, but stands out as a particularly weird-feeling moment in a game so thoughtfully structured otherwise.
