MGS1 (and 2, but two is arguably worse) has some of the worst controls ever for a 3rd person action game, and often forces nigh-unusable camera angles on the player. Still pretty fun though.
The gunplay in Far Cry 2 is just plain bad - the bullets are all instant-hit (no actual projectiles except for the rocket launcher), enemies can snipe you from 100 yds away with shotguns, breaking line of sight is nearly impossible, and the enemies are bullet sponges on every level above easy. It also suffers from respawning enemies (a pointless addition, as the game is long enough as is). Still one of the best realized open world environments in any game, and when it works, it's close to brilliant.
Resident Evil 5 should control like Gears of War (only without the ability to move and shoot), instead, it still controls like shit. Like RE4 before it, you get used to it, but it's never good.
All of the PS2 GTA games have terrible gunplay and driving compared to GTA4, yet many would argue that they are better games due to content, mission variety, or setting (not me though).
The Mako sections in the first Mass Effect are BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD.
While I do mention FC2 and I appreciate that AC isn't for everyone, this is simply untrue for Rainbow Six Vegas and SC Conviction. They have some of the best cover, camera, movement, and aiming controls of any games this generation.
