Games you wish had never been made

[KrazyShrink]

Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Fit, any of that casual crap. Such a dent to the industry.

As for CoD, I say it should have stopped after 4.

Edit: Saw someone else mention Spore, that too, just because that game depresses me. They took what might have been the most awesome looking game of all time and just beat it to death with a cheese grinder.

Whatever spawned this.

You seriously think FF7 shouldn't have been made? really?

I second this, a horrible game that spawned an entire generation of horrible games.

I'm not going to flame or complain here. Just going to say...
/ Countered

Just in case the Gaming Gods decide to make a terrible mistake and delete that masterpiece from history. Along with it the inspiration for several of my fictional works and traditions.

Thats all you can say about a topic based on subjective reasoning. Im sure you would think many games i love are terrible but thats the way subjective reasoning works.

Well yes of course, but sadly thats the only form in which opinions exist.
Unless the other person is so seriously deluded that all manner of scientific facts are lost upon them.

Unfortunately no matter how many of my best works are derived from visual elements of that game, it shall never be enough to convince some people it wasn't worthless.

MGS2

Whoa, wait, WHY?

Because I bought it thinking I'd get a nice game about Solid Snake that made sense but instead I get whiny ***** Raiden and some convuluted crap with a vampire in it.

so, you bought it thinking you'd be playing with goatee-Schwarzenegger, but instead you got an actually deep character?

that's what put you off?

Deep my ass. The shallow end of a kiddie pool is deeper AND less whiny than him.

Raiden is still a better character than Snake

Third.

I also second Portal, $20 for a 45 minute game when it came out and annoying memes? I don't think so.

Oh and I almost forgot, Bulletstorm. Terrible, boring game. No challenge at all and the marketing was awful, mostly because everything that was mocked and made fun of was still included in the game.

Please tell me you're joking.

I know, I know, opinions and all, but in my time in these forums, I don't think I've ever read anything as... um... "unique" as this. Are you sure you're familiar with the series and the characters?

yes I did (though I never finished Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2, Ghost Babel and Guns of the Patriots)

I find Raiden a character who I can relate the most, which is why I consider him to be superior to Snake

I'm not saying that Snake is bad at all (Naked Snake is better than Raiden, if that sort of means something to you), but while I do find Solid Snake a good character, I just think Raiden is more like me (except for the whole child soldier thing he's got going on)

Be careful about these threads, you'll get spammed with replies of CoD or Halo, or any extremely mainstream game.
OT: Star Wars: Republic Commando.
SUCH A GOOD GAME WITH A CLIFFHANGER AND NO GODDAMN SEQUEL!

CoD 1. Not because I have much against that particular game, I just think the series should be retro-actively erased from history Terminator style. For the kind of douchebag it's created.

Final Fantasy X

Way to ruin the reputation of the series for a solid decade+.

really? that was the first FF game I played and I love it to pieces(exept for some truly horrible voice acting in a couple of scenes). The combat system was strategig and the story emotional and touching (almost cried at a couple of points) not much more you can ask for from a FF game

one game however that I'm trying to loathe out of existance is FF 13 (it wasn't a game just tape down the X button and the forward button and after a couple of hours of cutscenes(which should be recorded as some of the most beautiful CGI in viedogame history) you've)

P.S. a couple of people are mentioning FF7: dirge of cerberus. Am I the only person in the world that liked that game?(sure it wasn't great but it wasn't THAT bad, just average)

P.S.S. also mentioned somewhere is Kingdom Hearts. I love the series it mixes the light hearted Disney with the emotional story of Square Enix. although I will admit that not all of the games in the series are good (but none of them is truly bad) and the series has been inspiration to some of the most disdurping Fan-Fic I have read in my life
