I would disagree with that one. Personally, I found Mercs 2 to be a rather bland game. Sure, I can blow up everything but all the controls just seem clunky, you fight waves of stupid enemies that all look the same and some of the voice acting is so appalling to be distracting. It's really just trying to capitalize on the whole "Lets blow stuff up" train and really fails. The buildings just fall down, they don't get destroyed. They sink into the ground faster than a fat guys teeth into an iced cupcake. It doesn't even have that sense of stupid fun that a game like, say, Earth De fence Force 2017 has, so it cant even be forgiven on that front. I really just didn't like it, or the first one for that matter.
okay honestly...I really liked the Star Wars prequels
I guess I'm a fan of all the films, and I don't really think the nostalgia/popular-view of the classics should automatically make the prequels bad
as with his other Wii anime games (not saying all Wii anime games, just the ones that my friend owned lol), I was told to "not look too deeply into the story [and gameplay for that matter] considering the budget"

oh yeah...my friend's roommate bought and as we played through we were like "...wth?"Korten12 said:

Any of the Madden/NFL games. They just dust off the graphics and change the name. No real innovation.
On the same note, most of the Final Fantasy games. Some of them are really good and it's obvious that real time went into them, a game shouldn't be released unless the developers actually try.
Not any of the current Halo games, but Halo needs to be done. Leave your poor franchise with whatever dignity it has left.
Sonic games ... ohh god Sonic games. No, bad Sonic, you are DONE.

You sir are a heretic and a liar. Red Faction 2 is shit tons of fun, and geo-mod will always be awesome.Mr. Squee said:
My pick for games that shouldn't have sequels are the following:
- Final Fantasy 7 and onward
- Metal Gear games after the original Solid
- Anything after the original generation of Pokemon
I would've tossed in the Crash Bandicoot games if the first one hadn't sucked as well as all the sequels.
Deus Ex 2. It's not a horrible game, but I dont like how the story proceeded in it, I prefer the finality of the three endings of the original game, especially the Helios ending
Any games of the Sonic series after Sonic CD.
Sonic 3-D Blast and any other 3-D sonic games. Sonic Heroes? Sonic Riders? D= Come on now.. and even worse is the sequels of the sequels. Ugh.
I remember back in the day when you playing Sonic meant getting rings, defeating Robotnik and saving the little critters from those machines.. Those were the good ol' days. D=

Got to agree. Although I didn't actually like Raiden as a person, he was a great character, especially if you consider him as a sort of inverse to Snake.Daedalus1942 said:
Sort of agreed. I love the first FEAR, and agree that the story could have done with some closure, but I thought it ended on an acceptable note; this is a psychological horror game, after all, so having an ending that makes you feel anything other than uncertain is not doing it right. FEAR 2 was an awful game though, so I agree.Superior Mind said:
I have a very odd relationship with PDZ, similar to my relationship with Resident Evil 5. I played it, I know it's crap, but I just can't stop.megapenguinx said:
Agreed, except that I liked Two Thrones, as I felt that it was a proper maturation of the series (give or take what they did to Farah), as opposed to the angst-ridden, expletive laden abortion that is WW, although I do subscribe to the theory that the series as a whole was meant to be one life (SoT the childhood, WW the adolescence, and TT the adulthood. Especially true when you consider that the big moral lesson of TT was to accept your mistakes).thrubeingcool13 said:
Ah, I remember seeing the trailer for Highlander 2 in theatres.RobotNinja said:
Trailer: "There can be only one!"
Audience Member: "There should've only been one!"
Is there an option on those to be a really bad babysitter?golvellius said:
OT: the only ones I can really think of that I didn't enjoy have been the Pokemon games after Gold and Silver. I just can't get into the third and fourth gen games and I think they've taken the amount of Pokemon way too far now.
