Call of Duty 3. Playing it on the Wii is the worst. I got to the first Quick-Time-Event and realized that in order to get the motherfucking Nazi off me i had to flail like a drowning cat. I then took it straight back to Blockbuster. That was only 15 seconds into it.

I bet that no one even remembers that steaming pile of octopus feces. Activision tried hard to bury it, but I remember. I'll forgive them because COD4 was great.

Far Cry 2. Simply that game sells with his graphics. But the mechanics are really horrible.
Mass Effect. I do not hate it, it just starts off too slowly, and i played 3 hours of it.
Off-topic: Hello all! I am proud that i finally joined The Escapist, finally a community which seems to have that what all the others do not. BRAIN!

Modern Warfare 2. I didn't like the single player, Spec Ops is hard playing solo, and everyone online pisses me off... maybe I just suck at FPSs

Nah, you do not! I liked the single player, playing Special Ops with my buddy was fun, but Online? James, give me the Kill-IW-Network-For-Being-A-Piece-Of-Shit-Button-And-People-Pissing-Me-Off.

LOST: Via Domus.

I should've listened to the reviews. Even as a LOST fan, I thought it was agonizing.

Half Life 2. The combat irritated me so much, I had no idea what was going on, and I kept getting lost...I had to force myself to play past getting a pistol.
Wha? It's a linear game.... you can't get lost!
The whole "I have no idea what is going on" is an element of the game which makes it awesome. You have to learn what is happening by observing and/or talking to the civilians.

On another note, you people who complain about the vehicle sections confuse me... the driving is fun as hell! I have full control over the vehicle and the times I got it stuck was me trying to drive over things I totally shouldn't have :D
The only gripe I have with the vehicles is that the buggy is a ***** sometimes when coming out of turbo and it might just spin out for no particular reason.
Actually, it was on one of the driving sections that I got lost. All the roads looked the same to me, although then again, I get lost in more linear games than Half Life 2 -.-
I have poor pathfinding mechanics.

On a different note, that section was pretty funny because it autosaved as I was falling off a cliff. So it kept reloading the last save, and I fell off immediatly as I was driving forward to fast to stop within a 5 metre distance...

Mercenaries 2. The controls, the graphics, the voice acting.. it was a perfect storm of suck. Glad I got it for 2 dollars on sale.
Oh god yes, I played it for like literally 5 minutes, and the controls were a bit iffy, but the grahics, oh man... When you've blown up a vechicle and then see smoke rising up going through buildings, and i mean like straight through, as in smoke passing through sold concrete like it isnt there, you know somebody screwed up in the quality testing department...

Just Cause 2. All it took was for the characters to open their mouthes for me to know that I was not going to like it. It actually turned out to be a pretty fun game, as long as I ignored the missions.
