[General Discussion] Cheap, cheating games. ARGALJKAGE RUBBERBANDING BULLSHIT

Most recently some random stuff in Halo 3 has irritated me. Such as a a plasma grenade hitting someone in the head and rather then sticking like it's supposed to, it'll bounce off and they'll walk away like nothing happened. I've also had spiker grenades go right through people. I've also gotten splattered by ghosts when I jumped over them and they only clipped my foot.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I know exactly what you're talking about with luck. Monster Rancher is another perfect example. You can have 95% chance to hit yet keep missing repeatedly while the CPU character with only 45% chance to hit will never miss.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Heck I remember getting hit by a blue shell when I was in 2nd place because I was in the path of it hitting the AI that was in first place.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
