Still on the subject of video games.
I would have to say some of the Old School Nintendo games were very guilty of having very disappointing endings. And by disappointing I mean barely an ending at all. (Some Examples of this are: Karnov, Wizards and Warriors, Ghostbusters, Friday the 13'th, Shinobi)
I mean sure it was the eight bit era and games weren't the technological marvels they are now. But come on, you busted your butt to get to an end of a game (And I mean really busted you buns because some of those games were hard.) and your reward for all that time and effort was a simple congratulations, you win, the end or game over.
It doesn't chafe me now, but when you're a kid that kind of thing really grinds your gears.
