    -Gold farming in MMO's.

    -Free to Play but Pay to Progress competitively - strategy.

    -'Some'times, in 'some' games, 'some' areas which you can't access, look more attractive - gameplay wise- then the ones you actually play in, like, what the hell?

    -Anybody know Kwon-Ho from ijji? They shut it down due to some reason, and there is NO other game like it. That.

    -Chat Boxes in MMOFPSs and other non-rpg-rts's.

    -Different Alt-F4 functions in different games, WHEN I HIT ALT-F4, I WANT THE DAMN THING CLOSED IMMEDIATELY, muhf'cker! :P

    I have a few

    - Unbalanced characters/factions/weapons - mainly in mp games

    - When its hard to block or counter a move or an ability.

    - Dull boring characters that don't display emotion or too emo.

    - Mature games with small amount of swearing, gore, and nudity.

    - Repetitive single player game play in TPS/FPS games.

    - Turning around corners/curves in racing games is tough.

    - Can't always skip a cinematic after dying or restarting.

    - Temporary invincibility or immunity on enemies.

    - non skippable cinematics!!!
    - stairs collision that affects the camera and makes it go bumpy-bumpy-bumpy-bumpy-bumpy-bumpy for every single step.
    - chat boxes! give me chat bubbles in MMOs dammit!
    - blatantly obvious good-choice / evil-choice dialogue in RPGs (Hello Bioware!)
    - then failing to make the evil character experience anyway as rewarding in XP/story progression as the good one
    - lackluster console-to-PC ports where dev seem to forget that the average keyboard has many more buttons than a console controller
    - DRM that makes you ponder pirating the game after you bought it so it's less hassle to play it

    I found a quote that really fits companies using DRM
    "You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don't owe them any courtesy (like having to be online to play their games). They owe you."
