Because for PS3 owners, it's the only really good MP exclusive they have.Rewold said:
Killzone 2 was pretty good, but the controls killed it for a lot of people.

This is a very late reply, but being in England means the time zone screws me over. So, sorry for being 4 pages or so late, I'll read through all the posts saying "Halo" and "Final Fantasy" later.
On these forums, most people defend Halo to death because it gets insulted so much, we feel a moral obligation, almost, to protect it from the unjust criticism it receives for being popular.
Perhaps some people are like this, but I think there's more to it than that. Primarily because some people have opinions different to your own - I've seen people erect metaphorical alters to Half-Life 2 and never got what all the fuss was about.THEJORRRG said:

i agree. i think its a fantastic game and few games can stand the test of time, like it can. however, with all the crappy spinoffs and and the fanboys acting like the game descended from the heavens, im just tired of hearing about itMajinDevil65 said:
Anything made by Valve, I find Gordon Freeman to be an extremely lame looking main character, Team Fortress to have a goofy art style, and Left 4 Dead to have stole the thunder when it was Resident Evil: Outbreak that brought the rain.
Anything made by Team Ico, since their two best games are pretty much just a giant escort mission (Ico), and a boss rush mode(Shadow of the Colossus).

Im just comparing the amount of enjoyment I got out of them each. Personally playing Halo single player feels like im kinda wasting my time, bland and dull. I only do it for "content sightseeing". Playing it multiplayer is like that time I nearly lost my big toe by getting it caught in a bike chain when I was a kid... unenjoyable.Captain Pirate said:
GTA. Every single freaking review site gave it a 10. It's an 8.5 to a 9 for me. Its a great game, don't get me wrong, but there are a lot of things that drive me nuts.
"Niko its your cousin, how about we get a drink." SHUT THE HELL UP ROMAN I DON'T WANT TO GO BOWLING!
I couldn't even understand what the hell Little Jacob is saying with subtitles.
"Yo rude boy, me rasta gaba man yo gimme i and I." Alright.
I decide that I should save Dwayne instead of Playboy X and now he calls every five minutes and if you don't hang out he wants to kill himself. Jeez.
Also too many driving ***** missions, like Mafia 2. And no checkpoint system.

I like how every second post in this thread is made by people who seem to think that this is another "Yay, my turn to go on about how I HATE a certain game that everybody else likes". This thread is suppose to be about games you think are great, but are just tired of hearing about.
And I can't think of a single title, because I apparently have this amazing ability where I can recognize, usually within the first few words, what a post is going to be about, and then make the decision to not fucking read it. If you don't want to hear about how great "x" is, then just don't read reviews or posts relating to that game. Seriously, this whole thread is just a continuous series of people whining needlessly.

Pretty much any popular game.
But mostly TEAM fucking FORTRESS 2!
My friend will not stop going on about it. He's played over 600 hours of it. Personally, I dislike it muchly. It's dull and kind of empty gameplay wise. It's a cartoony Counter-Strike.
But most of all, I'm sick of people telling me how much they think Halo and CoD are overated. WE GET IT ALREADY! I WAS DISAPPOINTED TOO! EVERYONE WAS DISAPPOINTED! And yet you're all still buying the next fucking sequel so quit your bitching because it's your own goddamn faults that you have to endure it!
For the record, I'll be buying it too. Because I like it and doubt Black Ops will be the disappointment MW2 was.

Bioshock. I own the game but I just don't like it. In fact, it seems quite crappy to me. Great artwork? Wow that's great, I guess I can just look through some screenshots in that case.
People say good things about the Kane and Lynch games? I was under the impression they were mostly hated games with a cult following.aussiechoco said:
