I ve been getting HD-DVDs for only 10 bucks ea.
I'll give you examples of what I mean by stupidity.Programmed_For_Damage said:
After hearing a scream from the hallway, seeing Pyramid Head on the other side of the hallway with a bloody sword, then going into a room with a fresh corps, James ask "who did this to you?"
Hiding from Pyramid Head in a closet with blinds(don't know what you call those types of closet doors) with the light still on. If he ran, he would of had a better chance.
Reintroducing himself to Angela since the last time he met her.
"He stabbed you, there was blood everywhere!"
No really? It would be a little weird if there wasn't
I can't remember all of them and I haven't finished the game. I can only do something boring for so long. So sorry, but I was discouraged from finishing it.
Mundane sports games. Instead of getting Madden '0X buy a football and get together with your friends.
Now if you throw mutants, ninja and zombies into the mix, THEN you have my attention.

Half-Life 2 : As brilliant as it may seem, it's just too tedious for me to play. I've tried a couple of times and I simply get tired of all the shooting and physics puzzles for the sake of shooting and having puzzles.
Oblivion : One of the ugliest games I've ever played from an art direction standpoint. The faces on most of the characters are so grotesque that they act as a good deterrent from the game on their own. Don't even get me started on the automatic environment leveling and how the game encourages players to make retarded game play choices to ensure their characters level up properly.
As I age and grow more bitter, I'm finding myself liking more narrative focused games. Mass Effect seems like a game paced for me. It's not perfect, but I'm enjoying it nonetheless. At the moment, I'm having difficulty mustering any desire to continue with Metroid Prime: Corruption and Zelda: Twilight Princess... the two reasons why I initially bought a Wii. Thank God for the Virtual Console and a few other gaming gems.
I actually like Halo, but I've never played the second or third one... so that's probably why I still hold the series in high regard.

Any FPS on a console. I guess a lot of people have never played them before they came to consoles, but any time I try one I just get frustrated on how limited and terrible the control system is compared to a keyboard/mouse setup.
No, he said it was gold, but he also says that it was a divided game. If you didn't like it, you didn't like it. However, as a result I have an urge to stab you. No offense.TheIceface said:
Halo - Doesn't need saying. I used to be a fanboy myself, but then I played Half Life. The multiplayer's still fun, though.
WoW - it has hype and it deserves it. However, I just wish Blizzard wouldn't charge for it like rhinos...
Crash Bandicoot 3 onwards - Stop it! It's a dead franchise! I still love the charm of the original, though. Same with Spyro 1 and 2. But they sequeled it to death.
Metal Gear Solid 2.... sort of....
Quite liked the story line. Didn't really mind playing as Raiden. But the mechanics were horrible for shooting. Absolutely horrible. Brought the game down for me, and I only finished it because I paid for it.
World of Warcraft: because it's basically a job.

You do have some good points with some of those, especially the line 'He stabbed you, there was blood everywhere!' but that can be attributed to bad dubbing more than anything else. But the reason James introduces himself to Angela the second time they meet is that he never told her his name the first time, so... yeah.defcon 1 said:
I agree with you on all those games taht you dislike. The problem with FF7 is that it's severely overhyped, just like Halo. At my school Halo's following was sickening, people just never shut up about it.
Psychonauts was good, the reason it got so much praise was because of its style, different from all the otehr games out on the same systems. (A game for X-box not involving you killing something? Groundbreaking!)
The game that I hated that everyone else seemed to love so much would have to be Street Fighter 2. Oh sure, it's fun, it's got a lot of unique fighters and ya-bla-bla, but it just seems so overhyped. You can't block, you can't do this, you can't do that, your oppnent in AI always wins using some B.S. special move, etc. I liked it a little, but it gets so much overhype from the fighting game fans. PErsonally, I'll stick with Mortal Kombat, at least there I'll soon be able to beat the crap out of Superman.

I like WOW but it can get kind of tedious, at which point I stop playing for a day for twoSteinFaust said:
I'll have to go with the flow here and say Halo. The only thing that excited me about it at all is the music, the rest is a cavalcade of mediocrity.
Otherwise, I'll have to go with Half-Life 2, but not because of the story or gameplay. For some reason the HL2 engine makes me so motion sick I can't play it for more than a few minutes without having to either turn off the screen or clean recycled dinner off my keyboard. Of course, this means I can't play Counterstrike, which doesn't bother me as I dislike FPSs where the antagonists are human beings, or Portal, which does bother me as what little I've managed to play of it I love.

I don't like Lego Star Wars. It's random, I can't tell who's who (and I play on a pretty big screen) and a lot of it feels like grinding rather than playing.
I like Legos. I like Star Wars. I'm irritated that the combination of the two didn't fly with me.

New here, just wanted to give you my opinion.
Games that everyone else but me loves? Ico. I hate Ico.
I played a demo and frankly, that was all I could stomach. It was boring, and it was too hard. Sure, the graphics were nice, but if I paid money to stare at something, I'd go to an Art museum.
I'm not sure if everyone likes this one, but Megaman Zero on GBA was also really bad. It was really hard. So hard in fact, that I couldn't pass the second boss, and even if I was lucky enough to beat him, I flopped the two levels after that. Then the monkey got me.
