It doesn't matter if they were bosses, just post them along with the game they're from.

The headless Kamikazes in the Serious Sam games.
The Berserkers in Quake 2. Soooo annoying when they'd knock you into a lava pit.
All the enemies in Max Payne (or any shooter, for that matter) that could shrug off multiple shotgun blasts to the head at point-blank range but kill you with one or two pistol shots.
Just about every enemy in Doom 3. None of them were fun to fight.

Cliff ricers in Morrowind are definetely the most annoying enemies I ever encountered in a game.

-Every enemy in Doom3 (Although the Revenants are cool to have on your side)
-The buzzer/fly/mosquito thingys in Halo 2
-The 'light tank' (the guys with the flamethrowers) in Quake4
-Metroids :tinyted: Cool, but annoying as hell
-Chton(sp?)-Quake1 Ep1 boss
-Most of the enemies in HL/2 (Not headcrabs)
-Scarfy (The thing in kirby games that turns evil and flies on a kamakize(sp?) mission after you if you try to suck it up)
-Sergent Kelly, Doom3
-Duke Nukem
-The bigass Rippers in Shadow Warrior
-Bee swarms in Jazz Jackrabbit 2
-Anything in Hexen (or custom Doom monsters) that had a shield that could fend off a BFG/Wraithverge shot.

Primal Trigens from Far Cry...
Once you met them, it was nothing but "spot, and kill" before they get too near you...
The armed ones were even also irritating and boring as the primate Trigens... But at least they were not that ultra powerfull with thier close range attacks like the primates were...

The bee's in Jazz Jackrabbit 2.
The bee's in Shadow Warrior too. (Fist action! :D *shot*)
The fast zombies from Half Life 2, including the Poison Crabs, and including the ever so annoying Poison Crab carriers. :mad:
Spider crawlers from Strife.
Might be others more. :o
Bleh I hate certain characters in a lot of games, it'd be too much to list them all.
I'm particulary talking about enemies.
Small, fast enemies à la Cherubs in Doom 3 suck.
Huuuuge enemies which can take a lot of damage which you encounter on a regular basis à la fat guy in FEAR sucks.
Normal enemies with annoying attacks/sounds that you meet A LOT à la Kleers in Serious Sam suck. Oh boy, I hated those damn kleers. Not as much in Serious Sam 2 or The Second Encounter because it had pretty open environments, however The First Encounter's levels were pretty small initially and meeting Kleers in those really did suck.

Fat Commanders in Duke 3D.
Oh yes, can't forget those. I ALWAYS hide in the ATM's in Bank Roll when I hear the Fat Commander. :D
Fat Commanders aren't really hard, they just eat a ton of damage before they fall. I would like to use my shotgun shells or RPG missles on something more powerful or harder than Fat Commanders.

Tingle in Majora's Mask. Whoever came up with that guy needs help.
Oh yeah, and Tidus from FFX. He simply does not fit with the game's story and when called upon for some real emotional sequences he falls flat on his face. The whole game's story suffers just from him and his whining.

Oh hell yes! Only at the beginning of the game, though (Route Kanal). When you met them again but with the Gravity Gun in your arsenal they were slightly less annoying (because you could just grab them and shoot em in a wall. Easier than timing a crowbar hit right ;)

Medics in Starcraft 'cause they're annoying...

Doom II - Arch-Viles. It's not even the respawning that I hate about them - it's their damn attack.
Dynasty Warriors - Guan Ping. He's an annoying little pipsqueak.
Duke Nukem I - The leaping Techbots and helicopters always pissed me off.
Half-Life 2 - I stopped liking Alyx once Episode 1 got about half-way done. But before that I do kind of think she's neat.
Deus Ex - That damned Bob Page. Ion Storm did a good job making me hate that guy.

Sorry for bumping this topic, but after playing a bit of Blood I decided on another one.
The Phantasms.
These things have got to be worse than the Hell Hands. They come out from the dark when you don't expect it with their f*cking shrieks and screams, and you have to let them swing at you with their sycthe before you can attack them. Plus, if they hit you, you're done for. Before you're done recovering, they've already chopped you to pieces.

3D Realms made the art, cons etc. for the game. Monolith made the levels, some additional art, sounds, and fixed cons, as far as I know.
The obne who said HL hound eyes, I disagree. They are cute. ;)
Ok to topic. Let's see a few:
- All kinds of über-soldaten (think of Retun to Castle Wolfenstein.).
- Facehuggers!!! Those scare the shit out of me.
- Hell hands/bone leaches from Blood 1&2. Scary slimy and hard if even possible to get off.
- Clif racers from Morrowind.
- Those mercenary mech guys in Unreal 1 with their temprarly force field that makes them immune to all harm.
- All flying enemies in Q2.
- Most shooty enemies and bosses in Painkiller, however I like the game very much ;).
- Assassins in Half-Life 1.
- Arch-Viles, Arachontrons, Revenatns from Doom II.

I remember you could get them off in the 2nd game, but I never figured out how in the 1st. I even tried BURNING one off by sitting in a fireplace! :rolleyes: I had god mode on, but then turned it off. :p
I don't know how many levels I skipped because of those things in Blood 1, or I'd save the game every few 'inches'.
