Platformers are the only games that really piss me off. I enjoy them, but I’m (really) bad at them, and failing repeatedly on something that seems so simple ends up really killing my mood.
Dying repeatedly and dying without having saved in a long time in any game tends to really irritate me, too (as I’m sure Hiro well knows ;_;). I’ve quit games for years in frustration over dying before I could save.

You know, not everyone can drop everything to join a game of professional soccer at a whim. In fact, it's pretty hard getting a decent game of amateur soccer going in a timely manner, much less right when you get home from work and are tired and want to relax. If you're a kid or even a college student, sure, it might be fairly easy to get a game together at a moment's notice, but in The Real World(tm), it isn't so easy. I've already said my piece on how not all FPSes are trash elsewhere. It's tunnel vision to assume they are.

FPS. SO very annoying, I've played them, and they bore me very easily...Obviously, games that make me get scared.

Devil May Cry (at least the first game) irritates me.
It's supposed to be a hardcore, intense game, but really it's just extremely tedious. Dante does very little damage and his ranged weapons are virtually meaningless, enemies do quite a bit of damage but they're not particularly threatening. You mostly just stand around slashing a bunch of uninterested mooks that have too much life for their own good until they give up and die. It's neither difficult nor easy, and it's never very fun.

Fighting games. The learning curve is just too great for me, and they demand quick reflexes, which I don't have. Not my cup of tea, though I do enjoy non-traditional fighters like SSB. Dying repeatedly and dying without having saved in a long time in any game tends to really irritate me, too I'm pretty much on the same page here, which is why I prefer strategy games. At least in this genre, if you lose it's mostly because your strategy was crap. (Though in some cases, it's because of overwhelming odds or just getting unlucky, but that's not the norm.)

To be honest, fighting games and FPS games don't piss me off because I actually sort take amusement at how bad I am at them. If that makes sense.

I do, but there's a certain point at which I lose so often and so easily that it doesn't bother me. It bothers me when I try hard, have a decent chance of winning, and lose anyway.

^ It's that moment when you know you are going to lose so you go Leroy Jenkins, right? That's what I do anyway (but I try to make it so I look like I'm still trying for my friends).

I usually put a game down before I get totally irritated. If I feel like I'm getting a little annoyed and not having fun, I stop playing and just move on to doing something else or to another game.
Tricky platform and precision-heavy type games tend to do this a lot more for me. That's why I don't play those games much.

Come at me in Mario Kart. Part of the reason why I began driving into the cars on purpose on Toad Turnpike after a while playing against you. There was no hope! I don't even know how you do it. "I'm playing really badly today compared to normal!" said you as you handily left us in the dust ;_;

In pokemon when the enemy gets multiple crits in a row, even though neither the moves or the abilities of the pokemon give higher crit rates. That always annoys me.
Other then that, most of the time I only get annoyed when I mess up at a crucial point because I either get to careless or so focused that I screw up.
