Fallout 3 and/or Fallout New Vegas.

I can't stand thoughs games!!! They are annoying, the voice acting is insanely stupid, the combat is never fair if your not using VATs, and the leveling up is annoying as shit.

Also the story. I hate how much it's praised and it's not even worth it :|

GTA IV, COD Series. There are a lot of games that aren't actually good but reviewers all say it's good because they can't say a big game with lots of money behind it could ever be bad.

Half-Life.
I really just hate the "old school" shooters. I spend most of my time running around trying to find ammo and at some points I had to complete restart at a checkpoint so I had more health. The Gravity Gun is also really week.

I did not think halo was fun. when the game came out I did not have an Xbox. and remember hearing a whole lot about the game. I was not able to play a halo game until halo 3 and found it incredibly boring, while also being hard to follow.

For me the main one that comes to mind, aalthough that may be because a load of other people are saying it too, Dragon Age: Origins. Bland story, copies shamelessly from Warcraft, I never cared for any of the characters, it bugs you to buy it's criminally overpriced DLC almost the whole way through (putting NPCs in places you'll most likely be going and having them shove DLC in your face that's pretty much just small bits of game content cut out from day one being charged for half the price of the game is unforgivable)... I could go on.
I was playing it yesterday, so my rage over it is newly-recovered. Friggin'...

FF7: Am I the only person that was glad to see Aeris get stabbed? She was sooooooo boring and useless.

No. No you aren't. I kept her out of the party unless I was forced to put her in. I was totally fine with her stabbing.

As for a game I didn't like, I will go with the Mass Effect series. Yes, it is well written. Yes, I can see it is a good game. However, it does not draw me in. I beat the first game, but have no real will to carry on to the second.

Twilight Princess was awful. It was just so boring and bland. I'm not too sure about others in the series, but Twilight Princess put me of ever trying them.

GTA 4 - My most disliked popular game as it's simply not fun after about 20 minutes.

God of War (series) - Fun to watch, boring and dull to play.

FF7 - I personally feel this is one of the weakest entries in the series as a whole. I played it through to the end so I guess I didn't hate it.

Every AC game, every Rockstar game, uhm...

Wasn't keen on Uncharted and disliked GOW too.

Not understanding the 'I don't like Halo CE because levels are linear/copied corridors' guys. Who played it when it came out? The first level was kinda linear (no shit, spaceship) but after that you crashed down in a huge goddamn valley with bridges and weird formations and huge spaces and you were free to explore a pretty good chunk of it. And most of the levels after that had similarly open spaces and multiple routes to explore.
It was the first game I ever played that didn't just shove you in a corridor; it allowed you to choose how to approach situations. Who gives a shit if some of the textures got recycled a fair bit?

Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

The only reason I played it is becuase I wanted to play as Sonic. I could never beat it because of the whole going through levels twice, and then I had to beat the Great Maze. They told me I had to go to this point on the map, so I did. I looked everywhere for some kind of secret door, but couldn't find it.

Edit: Oh yeah, and Grand Theft Auto IV. Tried very hard to be realistic and simulate life. There were a few things that improved the game over its predecessors (spelling?), such as ragdolls and police chases.

Bioshock. The game bored the hell out of me. The story seemed interesting, but I simply could not get into the game and gave up shortly after starting the game.

Crysis. Boring!
