Dynasty Warriors.

Because people over-analyze it. It's supposed to be mindless button-mashing, that's why I find it fun. It's like old-school beat'em up games which I also love. Sometimes, I don't want to have to think that hard... I just want to ravage ancient China with a ridiculous looking spear the size of a small car.

I also have an interest in actual Chinese history so it helps to know what they embellished for the sake of artistic vision and entertainment and that makes it all the more exciting.

Final Fantasy 13 and Resident evil 5 (although a little too short)

for reasons i don't really understand, i actually enjoyed enter the matrix. although maybe that's because i was like 9 and i played with all the cheats on.
Same here, And Like others said I also enjoyed the darkness. Another game I should add to my list is Dark Sector, Sure the story wasn't that good, but the gameplay was.

I think you mean Mercenaries 2: World in Flames. And, seconded.

Even if the game had more bugs than a retail release should have(hell, maybe even a Beta), it was still a damn fine game.

Anaconda anyone?

Kane and Lynch, both. They are very wildly hated by gamers and reviewers alike, and I can understand why, but nevertheless, it´s still fun playing it with my brother in Co-op.
I once tried to play it on my own, and the flaws just kept on piling up.

I liked Shadow the Hedgehog on the GCN. I also liked Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg. I also like Dead or Alive Xtreme 2, but not for the gameplay. Definitely not for the gameplay. Lastly, I love Mirror's Edge. Oh man do I love Mirror's Edge. And Onechanbara Bikini Samurai Squad. The story and translations kind of suck, but the gameplay is quite entertaining.

Last but not least, Goldeneye: Rogue Agent. I don't know why it got so much negative feedback. Maybe because it had the name "Goldeneye" in it and Nintendo 64 nostalgics didn't enjoy it as much as they remembered enjoying the original? That's quite possible. But I've played both games and I found Rogue Agent much more entertaining. And nobody can match up to my skill in this game.

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. I've heard too many people complain about the game. It's not actually that bad. I really enjoyed it actually.

I like Bioshock 2 better than the original.

other than that not really. Brutal legend was seen as average in my eyes. Also, both Kane and Lynch games are no where near as bad as people say. Especially 2. Worst game of the year? Not by a long shot.

Color me insane, but when I was a kid I actually kinda enjoyed Superman 64. Just the ability to fly wherever I wanted was entertainment enough for me.

Final Fantasy 13 is the obvious one, here. I simply liked it, I don't care what the haters think, overall.

Oh, and Bioshock 2. I preferred playing a Big Daddy over a standard human protagonist and taking down all those splicers with focused freeze/drill arm tactics.

It's anything but. Easily some of the most well thought out mechanics I've ever seen, which all fit together and compliment each other so nicely. I've had a thousand times more fun in stage battles than any other RTS, PC or otherwise, and it just irks me when people say that they don't work or that the game should have stayed hack-n-slash, because it's only bad tutorials that stopped a lot of people back from realizing how insanely addictively fun the battles are once you get the hang of them.
Guilty Gear 2 was very similar in mechanics, and also reviled. It seems to most people mixing RTS with brawling is distasteful. You might enjoy that one as well, I haven't played either but I thought I'd give you a heads upo.

As for this thread, I liked me some Too Human. People said it was too repetitive and that the graphics were ugly. They also expected a lot more from a game that was in development for 10 years. These were honest criticisms. But to then act like there wasn't something worth playing under there was going too far, and was too easy to do. The story was pretty good and a lot of the art direction like stage design was fantastic. Also some good voice actors like Crispin Freeman were involved, the music was fantastic and the game was pretty cinematic. Also Freya was a babe. Perhaps there wasn't enough game there for 60 dollars, but for the ten dollars I payed I was quite happy with it.

Edit: I found me an IGN review that I'm happy to say was pretty even handed.

I Love me some Call of duty. Love number 4 and black ops. But as soon as you mention it on here you get flamed for liking "overated FPS's"
