Shit in multiplayer(especially two player) games that will always cause fights among the players
- Thread starter Slayven
- Start date
I played Zelda - 4 Swords with my nieces and managed to make one of them cry by bombing the shit out of her to kill her and steal all her Force Gems. You know, the things that are completely pointless in the grand scheme of things.
Sometimes i lie awake at night and remember that fact and realise i am a horrible human being.

Having the most stars at the end of a game of Mario Party and still losing because all the bonus stars went to someone else.
Repeated throws or spamming a single move will get people heated in fighting games. If it works so well, why wouldn't you use it though, right?
AA-12 and flamethrower attachment in Devil's Third. Shit was hella broken in the most fun way possible.
Ring outs in general, while of course adding a cool flavour to fighters at a competitive level, also caused absolute havok in local play.
For my house it was using Eddie Gordo in any Tekken game. As kids we just could not figure out how on Earth to counter his flailing legs so it became 'cheap' to use him.
A more recent one was being betrayed by my best friend three feet from the flag in Halo MCC after an epic run on CTF, which he then scored. Irrevocable damage was done to the trust in our relationship.

Throwing in fighting games. The fact this came back to being a thing with SF4 baffled me, felt like goddamned 1992 all over again.
I actually still have this somewhere in a box. I used it a lot because it was comfortable (and I took care of it).

I had a joystick that could go to the Genesis or SNES, best controller i ever owned
I think that might have been the Capcom Fighting Stick? It had angled buttons a(it was all Seimitsu, apparently!) and you could swap the cable. That may have just been SNES or NES, but there was likely a version with the Genesis, too.

My brother and I used to whoop the shit out of each other when the other stole a star in Mario Party. I can't even tell you how many times I used to give him a kick to the gonads and run away to hide before he could get me and retaliate.
I lost a good friend and a Wii remote over this shit. It's the kind of betrayal that can never be forgiven.
Rainbow Six 3 on XBOX. The 50 cal was so overpowered that it was an unwritten rule among the community not to use it online. Anyone who did was treated as if they were cheating.
Ah yes, here, lemme show you what Item you will be getting instead of that one.
Streets Of Rage - Accidently grabbing and throwing your buddy. Or eating the food.
Perfect Dark N64 - When you bottleneck a room against Dark Sims and your friend decides to reload as the bots are rushing in
Timesplitters Future Perfect - Virus mode. When you are trying to avoid being infected and your friend is hiding in a spot just waiting for you to appear.

In a fighting game if you ever throw, use a projectile, block, meaty, perform a combo more than 3 hits, or use the same move twice in a row someone will call you cheap, and that isn't even getting into game or character specific mechanics. God forbid someone plays jack-o in guilty gear. None of my actual friends are this scrubby, but there been plenty of salty messages from randoms online
The interact Pro! I remember one of my friends had that. It felt kind of mushy at the time.It was this
Any fighting game where it gets to the point the players start spamming the same move over and over. Throws were especially anger-inducing.
Mario Kart when your skills are respectable but luck constantly screws you over, even when you're in the back.
Mario Party and Chance Time.
Fun times!

I remember there was a bitchy thing you could do to each other in Four Swords but I can't quite recall the specifics. I just remember rage between friends lol
Mario Party...end of story.
Also, throwing people in pits in any of The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords games.

Any loot game that forces players to share/split loot. Loot is bad, but things like ammo and health pickups are even worse. Make that shit instanced, and suddenly make your game 10X more fun.
Camping in COD...why buy the game if you're going to sit in a corner for 80% of the match, go 0.75 kdr, not get better and ruin other peoples fun?
I remember playing this old PC game F29 Retaliator via modem. If you blew the other player up, they were grounded and had to take off again to fight you... only problem is that if you knew where their base was, you could just continue killing them on the ground before they ever got airborne again. Infuriating, to say the least, and as a teenager at the time, it was hard to resist pissing others off with that... unless the tables were turned, and then it wasn't funny anymore. LOL
When you're playing a beat em up with a friend and are about to go into a boss fight only to realize you have low health. But luckily you see a health pack in the corner. Before you reach it your friend who is at nearly full health takes it, turns around and says "Sorry, it was an accident".
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
