Cutscenes that made games worse for you.

[Zrahni]

Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions. I was face palming myself on all cutscenes they were so cheesed
up that it was close to unbearable. If you played it remember the one before last boss.

Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway. So overdone WW2 movie rip offs. Which to make it all worse are unskipable.

Driver 3. The cutscenes had style, the game didn't.

 

[Fanboy]

House of the Dead 2. The cutscenes made me suffer like G did...

And Painkiller. That game did not need a story.

And Gears of War. All the characters are douchebags.

 

[Graustein]

Star Fox Adventures, man. The cutscenes were SO horrific. Especially the voice acting.

Right, so Krystal and General Scales (the big bad) are talking in some alien language, translated by subtitles. The language sounds pretty corny, but not too much. Then Krystal says "General Scales". In an American accent. Actually more like an American trying to sound English and failing. It is so horrendously jarring that it's comedic.

Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes.

Snake shouldn't backflip over a missile fired from a hind, then while still in mid air, right himself up, aim and shoot his own missile in return. That just looks fucking silly. It's the kind of thing that should be in DMC, not MGS.

The intro cut scene of Oblivion left me in awe. Don't get me wrong, the rest of the scenery is nice, but it's nowhere close to that very first cut scene.

Sonic Adventure

 

[Calamity]

I'd have to say Rogue Galaxy. The game itself is bad enough but every single cutscene was teeth-grindingly abysmal.

This.
The whole soap opera between the dog...thing and the bartender woman made me cringe with every line.

MGS 4 and I have to agree with BIA : HH, not only because the story was terrible anyway, but the graphics were poor too.

 

[Credge]

Hmmm MSG4.

Before the ps3 fanboys start punching me, please, you got to admit that sometimes it got ridiculous, oh wait you won't admit anything because you're fanboys, scratch that.

But yeah the cutscenes were good but severely clustered.

I found MGS4 refreshing, as I usually play games without cutscenes. Of course, I went in to the game knowing that the game had a movies worth of video, so I played it while my pops watched it. We both enjoyed it equally.

Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes.

I don't really see the problem, MGS always goes crazy like that it's MGSs charm.

But I do admit, the mission briefings in MGS4 got pretty boring but I still pulled through watching them if only to get the flashbacks for more Drebin Points.

 

[Emmitt_Nervend]

The cutscenes in all the 3D Zelda games. The unskippable cutscenes with only text dialogue really made those games slow and stodgy.

 

[black lincon]

Most FPS cut scenes, I didn't buy the game to hear a story, I bought the game to blow someones head off.

 

[fluffylandmine]

Wasn't it supposed to be ridiculous?

I would agree with you if people didn't take it seriously...

 

[The Wooster]

Metal Gear Solid 4. Period. While some of it was dramatic, most of it was retarded.

 

[Supernovajake]

Only when a game has great replay value, and unskippable cutscenes. Can't recall any at the moment.
