One of my least favorite things is all of Carnival Night Zone Act 2 from Sonic the Hedgehog 3. This stage just pisses me off so much. The stage takes way too long to finish (about 7-8 minutes as fast as I can, not even joking), the music blows (typical carnival music, GRAH!), and the boss also takes too long to defeat (about a minute, so you're cutting it REAL close by the end). The whole stage is just loathsome. Fortunately, Knuckles has it a bit easier by avoiding a boss fight entirely, but it still just takes way too long to finish.

Yeah, that is one of my least favorite sonic stages ever, despite near all of the rest of the stages being really good. I think they were trying to make a decent clone of casino nights zone from sonic 2, but failed miserably. Too slow, and too annoying. In reality most of the latter sonic levels in all the games annoyed me, keep the slow platforming challenges for a game like mario that's built for it. Sonic's platforming should consist of running mostly forward, jumping in places to avoid traps, and utilizing springs and enemies to get up to interesting places

Speaking of Mario platforming, there is a spinning platforms level in late galaxy 2 that is pretty difficult. Lost a good 20 lives on it, and I'm good at mario.

The secret final level and boss in Cave Story really messed me up for a long time.

Luckily that level had the best music track in the game.
