I'm mixed, I really loved P3:FES and P4, but I did enjoy the darkness of the earlier titles.Ahlycks said:
I liked the extra stuff, like the High School/Dating Sim, it added to the story and depth of the game. But was rather annoying at times.
I have to agree with the music...uck...not a big fan of J-Rap.
I enjoy Clannad, but The Dying Man was so damn obvious it might as well have been a slutty girl in a slasher flick who just got out of the shower.
:/
Mass Effect 2:
1) Mining is annoying
2) not enough skills
3) limited enemies
Crackdown
1) almost no story
2) no real reason to collect everything other than achievements
3) some control problems
Medieval 2 Total war
1) AI sucks
2) characters get traits randomly and without warning
3) some countries are absolutely pointless and just fucking annoying
Fallout 3
1.ending was lame, until Broken Steel then it was great
2.people repeat lines when talking to each other a lot
Half Life 2
1) episode 3 isn't out yet

Then I go and place buckets, Teddie bear masks, and traffic cones on the heads of a crowd of zombies, take a picture of it, then slam shower heads into their craniums, lob off their legs with a scythe, eviscerate them with a battle axe, drunk a potion to give my saliva super strength and spat at them to death, then finished off the remaining hordes by throwing benches and TVs at them all while dressed as Mega Man and remember why I fucking love this game to begin with.

I got this.
Uncharted 2
1. The main character is an unfunny douchenozzle.
2. The characterization of some of the characters is just horrible, like how Elena (a humble journalist) has no problem gunning down tens of mercenaries. She doesn't even break a sweat.
3. The villain is a big, bald, mound of cliche.
4. The overall plot is still kind of ripping of National Treasure
5. Everyone's eyeballs are weird-looking.
6. The gunplay can get samey sometimes.
7. The climbing puzzles get old.
8. SPOILER ALERT STOP READING: The Tree of Life is a little disappointing. There's nothing really special about it.
9. I don't know if this is just me, but getting online takes like ten minutes. What's up with that?
I guess I have high standards. That's fair.

Ocarina of Time:
...Can't...Do..It...
...I've failed you.
New Vegas:
1.Bugs. Bugs bugs bugs. I think it has more bugs than it does correct programming.
2. The iron sights on the Assault Carbine and Service Riffle are utter shit.
3. Invisible barriers have been placed at the top of just about every high point, so you can't go over mountains or large hills to get to a destination quicker, like in Fallout 3.
4. The 10mm pistol still looks ridiculous.
5. The laser rife and pistol have no iron sights (this is a major problem in my book).
6. Those damn giant blue wasps with orange wings are impossible to hit without vats or a companion, or until they've gotten close enough to drain you of half your stimpacks.
7.There are 2 pronunciations of 'Caesar'.
8. Crouching and scoping causes the gun to raise to the top of the screen sometimes and it's really irritating.
I'm sure there is more, but I've just woken up and can't think.

Chrono Trigger:
(Prepares Yatzee accent)
1. Whohoo! We see another game trying to jump on the bandwagon with the Final Fantasy franchise and its ever-popular ATB system.
2. "But wait!" the game says, "We no longer have random encounters. Now enemies jump out of certain encounter spaces." "Oh! That's great!" I say, "Now instead of grinding by walking in circles, I can grind by walking in and out of a dungeon entrance." (Insert rant about grinding).
3. That's not all. In addition to grinding for experience points, you now have to grind for spells with are now called techniques for some reason. Yes, I know some do physical damage, but really we use them the same way we use spells. The only real difference is that we can now combine them. Whoop de doo! Of course I really don't see why we need to do that when we can just cast them separately. Yes, I know it looks cooler, but you'll have to do more than that to impress me, hot shot.
4. You play as a kid with spiky red hair who says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! And seriously, what's with that hair? You'd think he was trying to rip off some crazy japanese anime that hasn't yet left Japan because this is still the 90s.
5. So according to the story, the heroes are all trying to stop some evil creature, who has to be the blandest villain in RPG history. I mean, he/she/it doesn't say anything and only deigns to make appearances two or three times in the game before you actually face it in the end.
Sorry. I can't nitpick any further.

[ul][li]As with every slacker Bethesda title, it does not ship complete. Instead, it ships with tools to let you complete the game.[/li]
[li]The attack animations are....singularly uninspired.[/li]
[li]Again with the all-but-silent protagonist. Oooh, battlecries.[/li]
[li]Balmora. Just.....Balmora.[/li]
[li]FUCKING. GODDAMN. CLIFF. RACERS.[/li][/ul]

[ul][li]Again, not finished. Look, Bethesda, I get it, you're busy and you have a great modding community. But could you at least try?[/li]
[li]Seriously, the attack animations. What the hell.[/li]
[li]"STOP, CRIMINAL SCUM!" Dude, it's an onion. What am I going to do, make stew sinisterly?[/li]
[li]Streamlining the skill tree was a good idea. Probably would have helped if you had actually streamlined it rather than just making the list shorter.[/li]
[li]Kvatch. Sooooooooo....I drive out the legions of hell for you guys and then.....you sit on your hands all day? "Nah, guv, I don't really feel like rebuilding my house. Me and my family are happier out here in the monster-infested wilderness."[/li]
[li]There's a definite lack of immersion. I don't really know what the major difference is between Morrowind and Oblivion, but Oblivion's characters just......don't interest me. I have no emotional investment in my player. I amuse myself by seeing how far I can fall before it kills me.[/li]
[li]What the hell happened to your writing team? Did the half of them with good ideas go comatose from their inundation in stupidity?[/li]
[li]That creepy zoom-in on your conversational partner's slack-jawed, semi-sentient gaze. Bethesda, they're called emotions. Try 'em out sometime.[/li][/ul]

EDIT:
Now that is a great insult.Frozen Donkey Wheel2 said:
Okay Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time... You're really not a great game are you? The storyline is so cliche, the temples all have the same repetitive nature, and there's practically nothing to do outside of enter temple-kill boss-receive gem.
Oh, and Zelda? You're a terrible example of the female main character. You're this badass mofo throughout the majority of the game going by the most unoriginal name 'Shiek' (it would be like a human calling himself Hu) and then once you're captured by Ganondorf, you are the most helpless person ever. AND WHY DIDN'T YOU GIVE LINK THE LIGHT ARROWS AS SOON AS YOU MET HIM? The most useful item in the game, and you save it until last.
Oh, and the difficulty curve? Dungeon 1 + 2 piece of cake. Dungeon 3: WTFBOSSMONSTERKILLEDMEFORTHE18THTIME. Forest temple, fine. Fire temple, tough. Water Temple: AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH. Last two are a walk in the park.
Did the people playtest this game before releasing it? It's glitchy as crap, and full of problems. The duplicate bottle glitch, the no sword at the end of the game glitch, and nobody EVER gets the 4th bottle because it's just TOO FUCKING HARD to kill all the ghosts in the world map.
FUCK THIS GAME.
(No seriously... That's still an awesome game.)

Ratchet & Clank.
No lock-strafe mode as there is in the sequels.
The R.Y.N.O is really expensive.
Aaaaand that's about it.

My .308 hunting rifle, on account of the size of the bullets, and the fact that it is bolt action and you legally aren't allowed a cartridge size of more than... something.The Admiral said:

Team Fortress 2... uhm
1. The damn respawn times on Red on defending maps. Twenty seconds is too long, especially when you die every ten seconds.
2. The Horseless Headless Horseman's massive range. Could be cut down a little.
3. The Horseless Headless Horseman's unusual axe thing, exactly the same as the eyelander. They should at least take away ONE of the negatives (No crits or health reduction).]

1. stupid ai that wont pick up pipe bomb, molotovs

War for Cybertron:
1. No host migration.
2. WHY IS THERE NO HOST MIGRATION
3. Scouts are overpowered
4. Campaign was short
5. Not enough customization
6. Multiplayer match types are unoriginal
7. NO FUCKING HOST MIGRATION
Other than that, this game is EPIC. Like, so amazing. It's awesome.

KOTOR
1. Occaisional bugs
2. Way too many enemies spawn in the final level
3. Auto-level up sucks and will give you the worst abilities
4. It's really easy to level up your character wrong and get stuck on a later part (ex. my first playthrough I was a force user who usually relied on force powers to attack enemies while my party members distracted them. Come final boss time and I'm alone with no decent force powers and a lightsaber I couldn't use very well. Sure I beat him, but it took way too many tries.)
5. The swoop races are fun but cheat.
6. Armor isn't particularly useful if you're a force user.
7. Manaan is a really easy planet to mess up on. I ended up in court like three times.
A lot of those are small complaints, but they annoyed me none the less. Still an amazing game though.

ARMA: Armed Assault:
1. It's really bad without mods and addons.
2. AI hyperawareness. Shit's not cool, yo!
3. You die way too easily, and from the silliest of things. (Such as when I got too close to a tank when it was firing and the noise of the cannon killed me [or possibly the area of low pressure it creates...].)
4. Planes & Helicopters. Pretty much win-cannons for those that have them.
5. The driving mechanics. If you've played it, you'll understand.
6. The squad menu. If it only came with a map... Took me months to memorize the correct pathways to issue orders.
I think that's it.

.Hack//G.U.//vol. 3 Redemption
1. Gameplay is easier than sin
2. The avatar battles are extremely simple after you learn the attack pattern of the enemy
3. Has the most unfun grindfest i've ever experienced
4. Most of the characters are extremly unoriginal
5. Dialog that took about as much thought to write as Twilight

Why is Ulman making jokes seconds after Pavel (or was it Stepan?) just died?
Your voice actors may be TOO GOOD when I feel bad for killing a Nazi.
Also, WHY ARE THERE FUCKING NAZIS IN POST-APOCALYPTIC MOSCOW?!? Maybe I need to read the book but really?
Couldn't you have found more enemies to fight in D6 other than green sacks of spunk?
Why do all the children in the game make me angry... like, just enraged for no reason?
Why is every person within 1000 meters of me alerted when my silent weapons don't hit their mark?
All in all: still my favorite game ever.
