    Default Well THAT was disappointing.

    So, 2 houses ago, I put all the NES, SNES, and N64 games in a box when we were moving. But when we got to the house, the box was missing. I was sad. I recently FOUND the box, after moving from the house that I lost it in. And in the box was all the NES, SNES, and N64 games I had put in it before. Also, there was the Superpad 64 controller, which I forgot I put in there. I thought we had simply lost that controller. It was our only controller that worked. So, I put in Super Mario 64. I'm having a wonderful time, until I try to press the Z button. The Z button was broken. Blarg.

    What's one of the most disappointing things to happen to you recently? And of course, it must be related to Video Games.

    The most recent would be a couple fo years ago when I rented Gladius,the copy I rented was messed up so you could only save it 3 times (once in each save slot) then you couldnt save it again for the rest of the game, so your options were either dont save and risk dieing, or do save and risk not being able to save again.

    Another time before that was when I borrowed FFVIII from my friend, it froze about an hour into the first disc >_<.

    Recently saving a file of Legend of Mana over a different file that I've worked on all day and reseting while it was saving. Stupid, stupid!

    I bought Project: Snowblind and Drakengard.

    Now that was disappointing.

    I got 'Deus Ex:Invisible War 2' days ago,looked at the requirements, looked fine, installed it, then tryed to play it. Only for there to nothing but a black screen. Afterwards I found out that the game needs a pixel shader, and that my graphics card was unable to download it.

    To my understanding, Deus Ex 2 is pretty bad in general about... well, running. At all.

    I picked up some incarnation of Worms for the GBA, expecting a generally pleasing experience, but ended up finding out that it's an atrocious port. The graphics were truly awful, the music sounded NES-era, and it crashed on occasion (it happened to me more than once), leaving a green screen and beeping noise in the background. I don't think I paid much for it, fortunately.

    My most dissapointing thing has to be........ Getting angry and smashing my room up with my baseball bat. I can usually handle pressure, but when you have been ill stuck in doors for the last two months, then someone very important in your life decides to go play hide and seek for 2 days with no contact what so ever and then my dad going off on one. I tell ya, it was either my dads face or my room. I chose the room.

    I had played FFVI Anthology for like 3 hours, saving only on Memo and I hit the reset button. In this 3 hours I'd gone from the end of the Sealed Cave to the World of Ruin. Sadly Celes got stoned trying to rescue that kid from the collapsing house.

    Luckily the next time around I stole a ribbon off of Atma Weapon and given it to Celes at the beginning of WoR.

    Than I made the same mistake an hour in. Luckily I had saved after Cid died so I skipped that boring scene. Yay.

    I found Disc 4 of my second copy of FFVIII froze before the last FMV had finished meaning that I haven't fully completed the game for the seventh time
    I also deleted by accident about 50 hours-ish of FFVIII gameplay
    ...Geddit?
