Haha, the only game of those I've played is OoT, and I HATED the water temple!

The Water Temple of OoT was miserable. I also totally agree that the camera system of Super Mario 64 left something to be desired. I don't remember a whole lot else about it.

No rings after a checkpoint before a boss fight? That's just cruel.

I'd like to submit Clanker's Cavern from Banjo-Kazooie, it was a pain in the ass to release Clanker so you could get the special move, I never was able to do it without a cheat.
