Then Rift released Storm Legion and went Korean style grindage.
But worst ever would be trying to get passed level 65 in Candy Crush Saga. 2 months! Eff you 'clear the jelly' level from hell! EFF YOU!

Probably playing Dark Souls only using a dagger, no off hand weapons and no armor. It was the most brutal gaming experience I had but I felt like a king when I completed the game this way.
My worst games
Singleplayer games
1.Command & Conquer Tiberian Twilight(I buy strategy game and uninstal some asian action shtako)
2.Dragon Age (i expected from Bioware something like Neverwinter Nights with toolset and multiplayer)
3.Gothic 3(bugs,bugs,bugs everywhere)
4.Neverwinter Nights 2(I expected NWN1 with better graphic but we get all fixed bugs again in new coat.)
Online games
1.SWTOR(no endgame,open PvP with 4FPS)
2. Star Trek Online(I spent 3 days in game and quit.)
3.Aion(I do not understand asian mentality.)
4.Rift(no endgame,absence of basic MMO systems like guild bank,horrible UI for healers)
5.Guild Wars(Absence of Tank/Healer/DPS mechanism.)
6.Defiance(Online game with 4day content? really? after 5 years of development?)

Have you even played Rift?
Rift has a great chat system, a guild bank as well as a personal bank as well as housing.
UI for healers is just fine, I healed raids with no problems.
Rift has at least 10 10-20 Man Raids, 14 Dungeons, 4 Chronicles(1-2 man story dungeons).
This isn't including all the Hunt Rift, Raid Rifts, Expert Rifts, Fishing, Survival...etc...
What are you smoking?
Post has zero credibility.
Some of these sounds like "your most difficult gaming experience" instead of worst, so I'll go ahead and mention some of both. Hard to remember them all because they are countless for both, but these come to mind.
Difficult experiences -
Megaman X (although might have been X2 or X3, can't recall), Final Boss. Tried and tried again, never beat him. This was before online strategy guides and the sorts so I never got it done, just caused rage.
Twisted Metal 2, Darktooth, using any car that isn't Minion. Just a ***** of a fight, but eventually got it done.
Wizardry V: Heart of the Maelstrom, the entire game. Tough *** RPG dungeon crawler, anyone else who has played knows what I'm talking about.
X-Com UFO Defense on any difficulty above easy. Also one of my favorite games ever, but damn it was tough and even a little mistake (or none at all) could cost you to lose an entire squad.
Tekken 5, final boss. Until you figured out how to avoid his attacks he seemed nearly impossible, even after you learned how to fight him some random bull crap would take you out.
Shadowgate, the entire game. As old as this game is I've still never beat it (and pretty much gave up). It was a point and click adventure, so with a strategy guide it would be a breeze and offer no challenge, but with out that it's a tough *** game with a sadistic streak. I refuse to ever give in and us a strategy guide for it, rather just admit this game kicked my *** legit.
Most multiplayer FPS games, especially CoD series. Not a fan of the series per-say, but I've played them from time to time. Having 10 year olds who hide behind boxes for 90% of the match camp you over and over and build up those over powered streak rewards is just frustrating. FPS games without OP streak rewards I do better at since they don't encourage cheap tactics(Like MAG, god I loved MAG).
Worst Experiences aka Bad -
Starhawk. This game looked so cool and seemed so interesting with lots of potential. Unfortunately it was total trash. Single player was nothing but a half-assed tutorial for the multiplayer, which also sucked. Most matches consisted of coming into a game joining a team of 6 vs 12 as your base was bombed from all sides over and over causing you to die in less than a second after spawning over and over and not all the skill in the world would save you. When you were on the winning side it was because you were on a unbalanced team bombing the enemy base over and over again making it boring regardless of how things turned out.
Peter Pan and the Pirates. Poor game choice as a kid that to this day makes me strongly distrust licensed games. The entire game could be beat in 3 minutes, and I was able to do that the first time I played it. Total waste.
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. I joined the current gaming generation a few years late because I didn't have the money to support my hobby for a while. Coming back into the gaming one of the most popular IP was the Assassin's Creed series. Brotherhood had just came out so I gave it a spin. Terrible game, just terrible. Controls were crap, when the came didn't automate the action for you, it would screw you over by doing what it thought you wanted to do instead of what you meant to do. The storyline was the most asinine crap I ever heard that would even make the most absurd Final Fantasy game shake it's head. I don't see why this series is popular, but this was my first and last AC game. The most overrated game series of all time.
Halo 3. Not bashing the Halo series, Halo 4 was damn good, Halo 2 was damn good. Halo 3, crap. Weak *** single player and an unimpressive multiplayer. Bungie stumbled on this one IMO, luckily they picked themselves up real nice with Halo 4.
Final Fantasy 8. Long time fan of the series and seen it's ups and downs. This was it's lowest down. Every character was terrible and unlikable. The storyline was unimpressive with a final boss that just literally dropped from the sky with little explanation. The gameplay was horrible and noobish, not even half way through the game without trying all your characters would be next to invincible and immune to every element and status effect. Trash, I don't understand anyone who is a fan boy of this installment. Final Fantasy 13 gets a un-honorable mention here too. Wasn't as bad as 8, but it sure as hell tried and had terrible gameplay. Mystic Quest I'll also mention because it was crappy, but it wasn't part of the main series so let's just try to forget it existed.
Gran Turismo series. Made me dislike racing games in general.
Smackdown vs Raw 09. I haven't played pro-wrestling games since, hopefully 2k games will bring me back now that they have the rights to WWE games instead of THQ.
(Super) Street Fighter IV. Long time fan of the series, but this left a bad taste in my mouth. Not entirely the games fault I guess, but playing against the 10000000x Ryu in a row in multiplayer got old. Clearly the game had/has balance issues that were never dealt with pre-online gaming, but now it's clear the games mechanics favors only a hand full of characters over the rest.
Ok, this is a long post so I'll end it. Could go on for while I guess, there are so many more.
Yakuza for the PS2. The whole game was an exercise in frustration. The battle with Majima was the worse boss battle ever. When I beat him I was overjoyed until I was expected to fight him again five minutes later. I thought I was going to break something.
This is the only game I've ever turned off promising to never touch it again and actually followed through. I never played this game again or any of its sequels.
Did you play Rift from start?
First off is dawn of mana. I loved the game, rented it, played the hell out of it, bought the game a few months later only to find out I had about 2 hours left in the game. Legend was definitely the best in that series, and deserves a reboot. Also had an, albeit minor issue that was majorly irritating in FFX. Got to a point where I needed something to make/get one of the best weapons in the game, and because I didn't check this particular area before I even knew about that stuff, I couldn't get it because some random npc woman was standing in the way, for no apparent reason. ._. Call of duty on x-box is a pretty crappy experience if you went from, essentially, golden eye and perfect dark, to arma 2, to CoD... I just don't get the appeal. Quest 64, love the game but gosh darn it takes forever to walk from one place to another. The final boss fight in god of war was terrible, just terrible. Not hard, just trash.
Malice promised No Doubt's singer and music and that it would be interesting. I beat it in less than 4 hours when I got it from Gamefly and it had none of those promises.
It made me feel like this:
I also bought Duke Nukem Forever at launch date including a season pass.
Then I got to the alien hive level and it went downhil from there.
At least the Doctor who cloned me dlc was fun.
I regularly enjoy blaring BIT.TRIP music while driving backwards around hellbug arkfalls in my roller. And there's nothing you can do about it because that would mean angering Commander Video from beyond the grave.
Two days!!!!! I am not even making this up, I sat and stared and used EVERYTHING in my inventory on the Wraith that blocks the door over the course of two...flipping...days! Imagine my surprise when I accidentally used my torch on the thing...
And don't even get me started on Deja Vu.
As for other difficult moments:
-The dream sequence in Phantasy Star II ( I didn't know you were SUPPOSE to lose so I kept trying lol).
-The Ornstein and Smough fight in Dark Souls had me cursing a lot.
-I can't remember the name of the boss, but in Final Fantasy tactics there was a boss (he was a holder of one of the Zodiacs stones) that spawned along with three demons. You got first move but it didn't matter because two members of your part were going to die and good luck with the rest of that fight.
-God of War, the battle of self on God mode. That's the sequence where there's an endless quantity of you that you must defeat. Took me two hours to complete it the first time (I didn't have a lot of health left from the first battle with Ares) and when I finally did finish I decided to have a quick cigarette before continuing. So I pause the game, smoke my American Spirit, go to unpause the game only to find the damn system had locked up and frozen on me (so I'm counting this one as difficult AND worst). Took everything in me not to snap the disc in two.
I'm honestly drawing a blank no everything else. I will say that the worst overall gaming experience I've had was Night Driver (for the Atari 2600...look it up and you'll see what I mean) and Homefront. Good idea on Homefront (story was really good I thought) but my word did they foul up the execution. I felt like I had paid 60 dollars to beta test a game.
