    By “helicopter level” I assume you mean the RC helicopter in GTA: Vice City.

      I just learned that the intent for that level is to pause the game and switch which turtle you’re playing because they get a full health bar when you do.

      Man, fuck those levels. I literally could not progress in the game because I was stuck on one of those. That experience lowered my opinion of the entire game, and I’ve never gone back because of it.

    I was playing Mafia, and it’s a pretty cool game, then suddenly they drop in an F1 racing level where you need to grab first place against a bunch of AIs that never make a mistake.

    The worst bit is, in the previous mission you did a lot of work to sabotage the rival’s car ahead of the race. So you shouldn’t even need to drive all that well to win against him, but it just forgets that.

    I just never beat the race, so the game came to a halt for me.

      His car breaks down right at the start, which ironically makes the mission harder as you have to dodge the car as everyone passes it.

      That said, the hard part was not tipping over, you could get quite a few places by just not giving a shit and flying over the chicane after the first turn.

    There’s a level in one of the Battlefield: Bad Company games where you’re ambushed by two attack helicopters in the desert and the only cover is a small building. Did I mention Bad Company has fully destructible environments and you’ve already fought in said building so it’s full of holes before the helicopters start blowing it apart? Or that a third helicopter shows up mid-battle?

    It’s not too bad if you know what’s coming and preserve some cover, but if the building is in bad shape when they show up then you’re not going to have a fun time.

      I mean it’s manageable, the HECU fights are always fun for me, especially with explosives. And you can just ditch the train and bhop all the way.

      Now Xen+Interloper on the other hand…

    I know what everybody is thinking: 50 Cent Blood on the Sand, but that’s a misconception, you actually mean 50 Cent Bulletproof–the one other, and less perfect, of the 2 games that exist

      I wanted a hybrid easy mode for that game so bad. One hit Stormtrooper kills but smarter enemies than vanilla easy mode.

    My helicopter level was in Ninja Gaiden. Used all my healing stuff before it and couldn’t beat it. Never picked it back up.
