Closet gamer - Video games you would rather die than admit to have enjoyed playing

[CarpathianMuffin]

Final Fantasy XIII. This isn't because several people hated it and I'm scared of being ostracized from the pack, but because the story has so much melodrama that I absolutely loathe in JRPGs (And Snow's hilariously glossy lips in cutscenes). Despite this, I found it an enjoyable game that didn't heap on the cheap deaths like several other FF games did.

I'd have to go with Star Wars The Force Unleashed.... 2... YES!!! Yes, I bought it, played it, liked it, and just as it was getting fun it ended after only a couple of hours of gameplay... Then I was dissapoint
I thought back and got even more decided when I figured out it was just the same fight over and over again. Besides, nobody likes enemies than can ignore one of your main attacks. I really hated the Acolyte enemy, now why the heck cant I use my force powers on them, I mean seriously. I just tore down and crashed a friggin space cruiser with my force powers, now why the hell cant I throw this guy over the edge. I thought Starkiller was the strongest Jedi/Sith dude in the universe.
I also got extremely dissapointed with the story. I mean, it all sounded pretty good, but ended up dissapointing BIG style

Maplestory. I used to love that game for a while, it was a fun game before the community turned to absolute cow dung.

Who's so insecure that they'd rather die than admit to enjoying a game?

Damn if I played a Hello Kitty game and enjoyed it I wouldn't keep it quiet at all, I'd be telling everyone how underrated it is.

Nothing really, I'm proud to admit. Violated Heroine may have made the list but I never bothered with downloading it (to say nothing of making the finicky piece of shit work on a Western PC).

Nothing really springs to mind but when people (especially at work) ask me what games I play, expecting me to say something like Call of Duty or Halo, it catches them off-guard a bit when I say Pokemon or Kirby. Nothing can tarnish my affection for Kirby Super Star Ultra, not even the threat of being looked at weirdly.

1) any game from the Smackdown vs Raw series, or indeed any wrestling game in general
2) cause...fuck it, i love wrestling and the games are routinely awesome
3) cause wrestling in and of itself is kind of a secret shame. people finding out i like PLAYING it too...too much shame to handle

...HOTEL MARIO...

[googleback]

Shellshock 2 (I really enjoyed this game)
Soldier of Fortune Payback ( I enjoyed it first time but have since seen the error of my ways...)

 

[pulse2]

Pokemon games :/

 

[Random Encounter]

RuneScape.

Not so much that I use to play it but how much time I spent on it overall.

Maplestory. I used to love that game for a while, it was a fun game before the community turned to absolute cow dung.

Forgot about that one... Haven't played that game in years.

Dammit, now I feel like playing it again! >_<

 

[LandoCristo]

Well, I hate to say it, but I did enjoy (for a while, the end got really lame IMO) SW: The Force Unleashed. I wouldn't die if everybody knew I enjoyed it for a while, but after the luster of Star Wars wore off, I realized that it was a pretty crappy game.

 

[Vault101]

I used to play runescape..alot

anyway I dont like to play games especially violent shooters in front of my mum/family, I don't know It feel like it makes me look bad

[Soulle55]

Hyperdimension Neptunia, just came out, shouldnt have bought it, totally did, it's not the worst game i've ever played, but it's the last i'd admit to playing.

 

[Rooster893]

HEY, DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!!!!

 

[friboy2791]

There's no game that I would be ashamed to tell people I enjoy. If I enjoyed a game, then it's a good damn game no matter what anyone says.

Besides, I have way better taste than everyone else in this thread, and therefore have never played a bad game.

Ok, I played Toy Story 2 the game on the N64, but damn it, I was just a kid, I was allowed to make mistakes at that age.

Whats wrong with toy story as i remember while it is definitely not a great game it wasn't bad either
OT my guilty pleasure games are beautiful katamari and all of the lego games
I guess the kid in me wants to game too

"NOOO!!! No game can be bad enough to take your lif - - what's this?"

*picks up discarded game from the floor *

"I see..."

*Walks away*

1. Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility
2. I like strategy management sim type games and there aren't that many new ones coming out these days.
3. Well just look at the box.

Diddy Kong Racing.

Don't hurt me! I don't play it anymore!

And what's so terrible about Guild Wars?

I second that. I'd go so far as to say it was better than Mario Kart 64 in some aspects. But good god so much furry cuteness.
