Joe C. #177 Posted March 21, 2017 Enemies that punish you for taking to long to complete a level. The pterodactyl in Joust and the baiter from Defender come to mind. PTerry is one of my all time favorite enemies. Nothing more rewarding than flying full stream ahead into him and blowing him up. (Or flashing red until he disappears) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toptenmaterial #178 Posted March 21, 2017 Castlevania: fleamen, especially the ones that pile on you from birds. The Legend of Zelda: those pancakes that eat your master shield, especially in collusion with Wizrobes. Super Mario Bros: hammer bros in 8-3. They are very well placed and difficult to deal with without fire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulon #179 Posted March 21, 2017 The red devils from Ghosts n Goblins/Ghouls n Ghosts. The hunchbacks and Medusa heads from Castlevania. The eagles from Ninja Gaiden. I can't think of many enemies than the devils from G n G (as you mentioned). Maybe it's a bit too new to be a classic, but there's a boss in Bangai-O that makes an "Eeep!" "Eeep!" sound to no end. That and I really don't like the fireballs in Donkey Kong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemintronic #180 Posted March 21, 2017 The last boss monster in Athena cannot be hurt unless a certain unexplained set of conditions are met. You just have to sit there and think you're skills are horrible while he wins. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulon #181 Posted March 21, 2017 The bats and acid drops in Downland on the Tandy Color Computer. Those little plus signs in Space Duel. The sniper in Tac/Scan Lobbers - Gauntlet Missiles - Thexder Acid puddles - Marble Madness Warrior ships - Sinistar Asteroids - Gyruss Big hairy masked guy with the creepy laugh - Double Dragon II Space Harrier - any solid indestructible objects (like those damn posts) Frogger - Otters Cosmic Avenger - Tie fighters Qix.

Atari PAC-MAN Fan #182 Posted March 21, 2017 When it comes to annoying enemies in games, for me, the first things that comes to mind are these jerks from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
