COD anything. Sure they are pretty and the gameplay seems solid. I just don't like shooting squishy humans in the face.
Same here. CODMW2 just doesn't hold my interest. It seems so repetitive, and not in the good RPG-leveling-up-by-killing-hundreds-of-the-same-monster repetitive, but the yep-that's-the-whole-game-enjoy-reliving-the-same-level-a-hundred-times-over repetitive.

Had quite a few, but the major one for me was Sins of a Solar Empire. Fell asleep mid game and woke up to find next to nothing changed. The game is just so slow and boring I could barely finish one game before having to go back to Empire at War.

Really though Final Fantasy holds the titles as the worst games I've ever played. They suck.

I've never enjoyed a Bioware game.
BioWare games won't let me get into them. And the gameplay is generally lousy. In every last bloody one of them. The writing's good though. Wake me up when we get to the storyline.

InFAMOUS

At the beginning I was enjoying it, but the more it went on the more bored I became. When you're so bored you fall asleep during a boss fight, something is wrong. I just can't see what people love about the game.
I couldn't agree more it gets so repetative and boring it is jus a bad game. It is the only ps3 game I ever took back for a refund...

Modern Warfare 2. I occasionally play it, but usually get annoyed pretty quickly by the amazingly horrible multiplayer spawnsystem. Yesterday, I got spawnkilled 15 times in a row in the second game I joined. By the same guy. Also, it has some serious connection issues (searches for new host, fucks up, lags around, searches for new host, works). And camping is way too easy. And the sky is always filled with killstreak awards of camping spawnkillers.

World of Warcraft. It's a timesink, sure, but it's not pretty, has lousy gimmicks and generally people suck on it.

BioShock.

The twist was ruined for me by many people on the internet, and to be honest, I'm kind of glad. If I hadn't known of the twist I might have been blinded to the game's standard-fare FPS quality. The setting was nice, of course, but I'm still shooting at mutants down a corridor, albeit the corridor now has big windows with pretty water outside.

Also, I'm really pissed off with every game leaving audio logs everywhere for the player as an excuse for proper story-telling. Okay, maybe a few here and there, but don't go full Dead Space on me and leave "oh-god-what's-happened-hello?-who-is-thaAAHRHGHG-" style messages around every corner. Who has time to record those anyway?

Honestly, I've got to go with Fallout 3. I don't HATE it, but I feel it's vastly overhyped. The massive number of glitches were particularly annoying, the game froze on me no less than 3 times that I can remember. But for me, the ending is what really pissed me off to no end. That sequence BEFORE the end is really cool, but the ending itself was uninteresting, and the lack of a final boss seals the deal.

Other games I thought of:
Soul Calibur 4 (should have just held onto my copy of SC3, it's basically the same game anyways)
Brutal Legend (love the premise, hate the game)
Final Fantasy 7 and 12 (loved X, but just couldn't get into either of these)

So basically FPS'?

Atleast get into Bioshock's fantastic story before writing it off. Thats like watching 5 minutes of Saving Private Ryan and saying its just another generic action film.
Why not? I dismiss plenty of other stuff without even knowing a thing about it. Ah, I jest.

I may have exaggerated how little I played, but I do know I didn't get very far into BioShock. Story is important in games to me, yes, but without good (in my opinion) gameplay, I won't be able to keep playing and that's what turned me off it. Maybe one day I'll give it another go, who knows?

But I wouldn't say I dislike all First-Person Shooters. Like I said, I liked Quake IV - and the entire Quake franchise, really - one can gather from a few of my past posts that I like the Jedi Knight games, although primarily for the lightsaber combat. There just seems to be specific First-Person Shooters I can't stand, while others I'll play the hell out of.

To add another to my list; World of Warcraft seems to be a tricky one to place. So far in the past I've returned to the game twice now after extended breaks, and eventually I just stop playing again, don't bother buying more game time, it just fails to keep my interest. However, when I do return, I just seem to love that game all over again, at first anyway.

Damn you Blizzard.

Iv never gotten in to Halo, none of them, just don't see what the big fuss is all about. plus FF XIII waited ages for it and feel a little, no a lot let down by it. (v got to the stage where i don't care if I don't complete it i haven't put in in 360 for so long..

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Fallout 3. They just feel very montone.

Bioshock... the controls were clunky, the weapons sucked...
Say whaaaaat? I had some complaints about Bioshock too but it handled like a dream and the weapon set was probably one of the best ever in a game in my opinion.

But to answer the question, I never liked GTA 4. Very bland game.

This to a word.

The plot was spoiled for me, and the gameplay was pretty boring so in the end, it was just way to hard for me to get into.

Also, God of War, Final Fantasy, and Shadow of the Colossus.
