Good Games you will never play.

[A_Play_On_Words]

Anything Persona; I like JRPGs and they look interesting, but they're a time sink, and I don't have the kind of free time I used to have.

 

[lacktheknack]

I guess I'll have to state the obvious: Red Dead Redemption. Because Rockstar won't let me play it even though I want to.

This. Thanks, Rockstar.

 

[217not237]

Pretty much every non-turn-based PC game with high requirements ever. I don't care enough to buy a mouse.

Most adventure games. They aren't going to be re-released any time soon, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to work an emulator.

Earthbound. See above.

 

[Nexxis]

Any FPS. It's just not my thing. I've been thinking about trying TF2 because I have a few friends that play it, but I don't think I'd enjoy it for long since I figure that I'd suck t it and I'd probably get killed a lot which playing against my friends. I don't have a huge problem sucking around friends, but if I'm losing all the time, the situation stops being fun and just becomes frustrating.

Amnesia. Because I'll never have a PC worth a shit

Actually I have a crappy laptop and Amnesia ran pretty good for me, actually. I never played a LOT of it, but I invested an hour or two, and didn't seem to notice anything really intensive.

My laptop was a gift just so I had SOME computer. Undoubtedly bought on a sale at Walmart or Best buy, and its about a year or two old. Hey, it may just be luck, or maybe it gets more resource intensive further in the game, but I'd say to give it a try if you find it on sale. If it doesn't work well you can always set on it for a while until you do end up getting a new computer.

I have an Intergrated graphics card. A particular one that amnesia really doesn't like, and apparently, there is no way to get it to run.

And me getting a new computer? I'm a student. An unemployed student. In modern britain. That ain't happening for an age.

As for the port, the devs have expressed incredible amounts of reluctance towards going to consoles. They didn't really state much technical problems with it (although they did say it would require a fair bit of work) they just seem to think consoles aren't suited for it.

Whereas their fans on the forums seem to have promised to mount the dev's heads on sticks if it gets into the hands of the console heathens. Pc elitism at it's finest.

Was the two last lines necessary?
I searched the forums and havent found that kind of posts.


The reason why the developers wont develop the game for the consoles is they dont have enough budget and they dont know how to code for the consoles

...By god, you poor, unfortunate soul. You didn't play Red Dead Redemption or Batman Arkham Asylum?


FYI: You're not missing much with the recent battlefields, or Borderlands.

 

[prophecy2514]

portal (and I guess its sequel). I can understand the love it gets, but it doesn't interest me at all.
and I would say any cod/battlefield/insert generic fps clone but its debatable whether or not you can classify these sorts of games "good" by any margin.

After GTA4 I kind of just stopped buying anything Rockstar tried to throw at me, I felt it was that disappointing
As for Batman, I honestly don't know, I just never got around to getting it :l

 

[Zaer]

Also Persona 3, I doubt I will ever replay that game again unless I pick up the PSP version which i'm informed answers near all my gripes with the game.

Dat party AI. It's like your teammates actually hate your guts and are passive-aggressively trying to get you killed sometimes.

"Main Character on low health? Oh no! Mitsuru! You took a scratch from that one guy let me just heal you first!"

[sub]Fuck you Yukari...[/sub]

I know that feel, bro. Yukari can be a moron when it comes to healing. Part of the reason why I prefer P3P and P4 is because you can actually directly control your party, thus making idiocy entirely on the player.

Onto good games I'll probably never play (too much) - The Witcher. I find the first incredibly tedious in its mechanics, even if it's got a good world and story. Witcher 2 isn't as bad though.

 

[Qtoy]

Deus Ex: I tried. I really did, but I couldn't get into it. It's awful because it seems right up my alley but something doesn't click and it kills me that I can't.
Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics: Yeah, same goes for these. I really want to know more about Fallout, especially its lore, but I'm just too unaccustomed for those games.
Red Dead Redemption: Xboxes are expensive.

Red Dead Redemption has one of the best stories of recent memory, because it was one of few games to illicit emotion from me. Besides that? I /hate/ westerns, and I loved that game. But batman arkham asylum? Its an amazing stealth game if you like that sortof thing. Its the best modern stealth game, so even if your not a batman fan.. You should buy it. Arkham City is awesome as well, but you just have to ask yourself if you want more of an open world or not.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

The Uncharted series and the Tomb Raider series which I just don't care about. I don't really like the genre and while I did play a demo of early PSX Tomb Raider games I never cared enough to ask for one (since I couldn't afford to buy my own).

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Oh, "good" games. Your title confused me. To answer your question, there are quite a few:
- Halo (series): Despite the fact that the story sounded intriguing the way my cousin described it, I just can't bring myself to play these games.
- And CoD or Battlefield game: The appeal of these games is simply lost on me. Esp. the early ones recreating WWII. I mean the soldiers that survived that war spent every waking moment since trying to forget it and we make games simulating it? Someone please explain that one to me 'cuz I don't get it.
- Any EA Sports title: That should be self-explanatory, also boycotting EA
- Half-Life (series): Just can't find the interest.
- Silent Hill (series, but esp. 2): Never been big on survival horror
- World of Warcraft: Thought about playing it a number of times, but so many things turn me off
- SW: The Old Republic: See WoW, also boycotting EA.
- Gears of War (series): The appeal of muscle bound sacks of testosterone running around shooting things with massive guns to compensate for inadequacies "downstairs" fails to appeal to me. Yeah don't bother trying to explain the intricacies to me, all I will ever see when it comes to this series is ugly muscle bound shit-heads running around with impractical firearms for no good reason.

...and that's all I got for now.

Anything on PC and PS3 on account of me being lazy and poor.

The frictional forums, not these ones. Although we do have a few problem elitists here...

At least I think it was the frictional games forums. I just uncovered a ton of bile and hatred when googling to try and find out whether there was any chance of a port. These guys seem to be offended by the very idea of frictional EVER doing anything for consoles.

 

[edgecult]

Deus Ex. I got it in one of the older Steam sales and I can't be arsed with it. It's meant to be some sort of messiah of video games though. Huh. How 'bout that?

Also Persona 3, I doubt I will ever replay that game again unless I pick up the PSP version which i'm informed answers near all my gripes with the game.

As I much as I hate to admit it ME3 will likely never be touched again. I still don't agree with the people who say the ending ruined absolutely everything ever because the fact of the matter is that, apart from the last 5 minutes, the game was amazing. I'm not going to let myself forget that just because Bioware dropped the ball on the ending.

But I can't get motivated to boot it up again nonetheless.

The psp version of P3 added a lot of things from the 4th game to make it easier to handle. (IE lets you assume direct control of the other party members to make sure you get that heal when you need it >.> A godsend for bossfights more than anything.)

 

[IllumInaTIma]

Deus Ex: Human Revolution and most of GTA games.

 

[karcentric]

Gear's of War, I just don't give a damn about that series, I'd say Halo as well but I liked Reach so that goes out the door.

 

[RedDeadFred]

Pretty much everything made by Valve except the Portal games and a long time ago I played Counter Strike. I'm not really into online FPS games so that rules out TF2. I've never really seen the appeal of the HL games or the L4D games.

Also, I probably won't play Bioshock 2 or Deus Ex. I also won't play Gears 3.
