Playing Ace Combat 5 on hard.  On the final level, and I haven't died since the 8492nd mission (It took a few tries to kill them all.). All is going well, until suddenly GIANT PANEL OUT NOWHERE.  The great Ghost of Razgriz, defeated by an inanimate object.

It didn't come from nowhere, it came from the big thing you were shooting :P

Better than my first attempts at it,  I died 4 times thinking I had to fly INSIDE the bloody thing to hit it.

Chosen Juggernaught plasma blast to the face. Just as I used a stimpack to bring my health up (which wasn't enough to offset the damage).

You can.  With a steady hand and small enough plane.
My problem was that I thought I was safe being just above it.

Those things can actually kill you? Usually I blow them up before they ever get in range :o

Do Vanguards not have Incendiary ammo? Shoot the fuel tanks with that stuff and those Vorcha will explode within seconds. You can also use a squad member hit them with Incinerate or a related power and they detonate instantly.

Yeah, I was being kinda stupid in that fight.
Plus I suck at aiming. I eventually managed to get through it.
I meeled every krogan to death.

Stupid giant metal goddam badassasaurus rex and his stupid nuke missiles that I can't shoot down 50% of the time due to my Anarchy stacks giving me craptastic accuracy. If those nukes hit, you're going down instantly and can't get back up because it's a freakin' one on one battle with almost nothing to second wind on. Except the previously mentioned nukes.

I've died three times against that giant metal dinobot and lost all my Anarchy stacks each time. It's infuriating because it takes some time to get the stacks up, and it makes me want to take every last missile Piston has thrown at me and shove them all up an orifice of his in as painful a manner as possible.

Got paired up with a scrub ally in a Mobula who died constantly, leaving me in constant 2v1 situations(though I had a decent crew and only died twice during this. Go figure). This was while piloting a goldfish, which only has 3 weapon mounts(and only one can fire on the enemy at a time since it has one bow mount, and one port and starboard mount)), so I was doing diddly squat to them without support :(

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

In other news, after almost fifteen minutes of playing cat and mouse with an outsider, I misplaced my squad's sniper, putting him directly in front of the frikkin' outsider who frikkin' tricked me into frikkin' thinking he was elsewhere on the frikkin' map. Sure enough, the sniper gets one shot by a critical hit (of course) and then the one guy in my now two man squad-the only one who hasn't been injured yet-starts panicking (of course) and shoots (of course) at my only other soldier in the squad(OF COURSE), who is injured (of course).

Spoiler alert, the panicking soldier had perfect aim at the worst time (of course) and killed my other soldier, effectively screwing the mission over so hard the mission broke its spine. This was all because of a single alien (OF COURSE).

Screw you XCOM you horrible, unfair, viciously cruel manifestation of Murphy's Law. Screw you you asshat outsider, your entire universe just got deleted, so ha. Bitch.

Okay. I found that Psi reaver you talked about Jacob. Also, remember how I was hurting for AP rounds? I have 90 some of them. In like the final level with pretty much zero chance of finding bots. FUUUUUUU!

I always soldier, because the adrenaline rush allows me to compensate for my somewhat crappy aim.
I inflirtrate.  It doesn't matter where you hit with the widow.  And it's not hard to miss with the slow down you get.

While I didn't die, with my criminal record no one wants to hire me.  All I can get are crappy jobs that pay nothing.
