What is the worst turret section you've ever played in a game

I tend to hate these more than escort missions. I hate being stuck in place having to shoot shit.

Probably Jak 2 tbh, can't really think of many right now but what about you?

yeah jak 2's is horrendous. especially on hero mode. i literally platinumed all 3 games before beating that mission.

I can't really remember many, weird. Maybe they were all just that bad that I repressed them.
First thing to come to mind is the asteroid cannon bit in Dead Space

I genuinely can't think of many because of how fucking shit they all are.

I guess the Halo 4 one on that mission where you meetup with the UNSC wins by default, because it's the only one I remember, but that didn't bother me too much because the turrets were optional.

the last part of dead money in new vegas where you have to navigate through to the treasure vault. when i play that part on pc nowadays i toggle godmode on and collision off because it is an extremely tedious process and after well over a thousand hours i think ive earned the right to skip it.

The Thug Leader Giant Mech boss fight in Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando. On a first playthrough you have to use the turrets in order to kill him and it takes like 30 minutes to do it.

When you replay through the game in Challenge Mode you can breeze through this fight when you have the RYNO II and mega versions of your weapons.

i guess these dont technically count but the halos were okay because at least you could sit back and watch your friend fuck up over and over again whilst blasting stuff

generally though turret sections are like on rails shooters with a slow turn speed and even less depth

The one in that abandoned station in EYE Divine Cybermancy. The turrets will easily gun you down in less than a second, even with heavy armor on, and you can't even tell where they are unless you've already played the mission a few times.

i think the op means a turret section where youre like at a turret just shooting things on-rails for like 5 minutes

not a turret section where youre supposed to avoid turrets

also theyre pretty much exactly the same as the portal and half life turrets
