Are we talking the new Resident Evil 4 and 5 3rd person shooters (which sucked IMO) or the old school fixed camera ones? Cuz the old ones were awesome, again IMO.Kenny Kondom said:
OT Fable. Both of them. Could barely stand them.
Edit: oh, and also any splinter cell game.
Half Life, way to much emphasis on story, not enough on gameplay
Oh and Killzone 2, good God it's horrible

World of Warcraft, I guess. But I guess that it's because I was a huge fan of the original warcrafts, and the story of the third one was very interesting, and I just hoped that they'd finish the story with a Warcraft IV, not a MMORPG, also, the same with the Old Republic.

I don't like Half life, the sims and another game but I can't remember it now which is probbaly a good thing. 
I couldn't agree with you more and welcome to the Escapist.Kenny Kondom said:
Street Fighter - any of them. I don't have the reactions to string combos together, I can barely even pull off a shoryuken. It doesn't help that all the friends I play it with grew up playing the II arcade machines every day, and unlocked all the characters from IV in about a day. Continually losing is no fun.
Fable II - could have been so, so much more than it was. The potential for a decent RPG was there, but they never followed up on it. No real incentive to do the side-quests either, except to lengthen the game a little so you didn't feel like you'd wasted *quite* so much money.
Obsidian - Boring. Badly made and boring. Then again, I played Fallout 3 first, so I was probably spoiled by that. I kept trying to enter VATS during a swordfight...

Pretty much all RTS's. Either they are way too involved and complicated and you get raped, or way too simple and you pwn. It's either far too difficult or way too easy. Never really seen an inbetween.
So what about Fallout 3. Did you dig that?Slash Dementia said:
It seems like everyone I know that loved Burnout 3 & Revenge were incredibly disappointed with Burnout Revenge. They took a really unique driving franchise and turned it into every other driving franchise.
Halo
Gears of War
Call of Duty
Killzone
Army of Two
Seeing a pattern here? Yes, I am completely uninterested in the current-generation FPS genre.
Also...
Final Fantasy VII (I played it. I beat it. All before the new millennium when this game was relevant. It's rabid fan-tard following has forced me to hate it AND them. 'Overrated' isn't even the word for it.)
Final Fantasy X (because everything about it completely uninterested me from the style and story to the voice acting and disturbingly J-Pop direct sequel.)
Little Big Planet (because it looks downright creepy.)
Naruto games (because I don't like the Anime either... or the 12 year olds that watch and play it.)
Resident Evil (because the broken controls of the first 2 demanded I suck at them so I never bothered with any installments afterward.)
Beatles Rock Band (I don't like the Beatles, not because I'm "too young" to get them, because they are overrated classic rock n'roll shit.)
Madden Football (because American football is a sport for damaged people.)
Tomb Raider (because of shitty controls, schizophrenic difficulty, and because I don't like female characters that are sold solely on their ample bosom. That's for adolescents who have never seen a pair of breasts before.)

It was fun for about a month or so, but it got boring after even with the DLC that I bought for it.GonzoGamer said:
Soul Calibur, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Street Fighter, basically any fighter except SSB, although I dont think its considered a true fighting game. Basically I'm like Yahtzee on the subject of fighting games
