Common in that first transition from 2D to 3D in consoles. Some of those early 3D games were not only incredibly ugly and blocky like on the PS1 compared to previous eras with sprites but the camera was quite bad.

I honestly sometimes forget how good we have it with camera controls now. Every once in awhile I will play the rare game that has fixed camera angles and not being able to just control the camera with my left analog stick makes me incredibly annoyed.

Not the entire game, but Dark Souls 1 Centipede Demon might as well just be the Camera Demon.

Perfect Weapon

It is a 3D beat 'em up with fixed camera angles however the camera would always not shift when going off screen. This can happen during combat and the enemy will be punching the player's face in while a giant red arrow points to where the player went off screen.

Goldeneye 007 on the N64 NSO. God awful. I don't remember N64 controls being bad, but anything besides an N64 controller is downright terrible. And I don't want to spend $60 buying one to play N64 games. But we've come along way for shooters too.

As Snake said, SM64. If they remastered that game to have Odyssey's camera the game would be a hell of a lot better than it currently is. Trying to climb in Big Boos Haunt was a nightmare.

Controlling the camera with the shoulder buttons in Armored Core 3 is the first one that comes to mind... for better or worse the PS1/2 era had some unique control schemes

The camera isn't the problem here. It's the size of the room.

Strangely enough, I went back and luckily got it working properly to work with modern controls (sort of),

This. When the games are fun, the camera is the worst part but almost adds to the whole he's-too-fast feel.
When the game just sucks, the camera is infuriating, but it could also be the level design.

I love Sonic adventure.
