Metal gear solid, can't remember which one, but after struggling with the controls for 5 mins, I gave up and went on something different.

Bearing in mind I was about 12, I now really want to play one, just to see what all the fuss is about, but since I'm on a 360...

Alone in the Dark, dear god Alone in the Dark! I only got it with my Xbox 360 because they were sold out of CoD4. I had hoped not having high hopes for it would help, but 10 minutes into the game and I was sick of it. Although it seems petty having to press a button every thirty seconds to clear my vision got old and tedious fast. I want to be able to take in my enviroment and see what I need to go, not be forced to deal with some shoehorned in game mechanic which really didn't need to be there.
That monstrosity truly was a blister on the ass of gaming.

Everything about it seemed designed to prevent you having anything resembling fun.

Hahaha, you clearly didn't give the game a chance, as that "annoying blinking" actually becomes the only way to kill the cracks when you get much further in the game. It's not shoehorned in, it fits quite well. My only regret about that game was I bought it on PC, and it was a nightmare to finish. Still not a horrible game though. My suggestion is you actually get through more than 3 hours of the game before you make a statement like this.
I am not trying to be a douche, but AITD is indeed a fucking terrible game man. The inventory system (LOL U NEED FIRE TO DO ANYTHING), the stupid fucking black inky sludge stuff (LOL DO U HAVE GLOWSTICKS? NO? ALRIGHT MAN BETTER JUST PLAY ANOTHER GAME OR RELOAD YOUR SAVE), the physics (LOL U THREW A FLAMING AXE AND HIT A METAL DOOR TIME TO RELOAD YOUR GAME BECAUSE NOW THAT DOOR WON'T OPEN EVER) and the combat (DO U HAVE ANYTHING TO LIGHT US ON FIRE? NO? ALRIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO RAPE YOU NOW) make that the worst game I have ever played.

Ever.
Do yourself a favour then and never play System Shock II, because you'd be terrible at it.
The whole point of AITD is micro-managing. If you waste all your incendiary ammo and grenades, not my fault. I had alot of fun with all the different combinations in the game, and the puzzles were so much fun, you really had to think laterally.

Mass Effect.

I actually played it through to completion to find the brilliant game that everyone was talking about, but the only good bit is at the very end when you're fighting in zero-gravity. Even then, it could just have been a level in Halo that happened to have robots...

10 minutes of Ghost Recon. Played the first encounter in the first mission twice and noticed you died way too easily. Stopped then and there.

Back then I did not have the patience to try these stealthy FPSs instead of their Rambo-esque counterparts.

Some movie based game, it looked stupid, but my foolish young(er) mind kept telling me to get it. I think it was the Fantastic 4 game.

My Brother bought Prey for me, was ok to start with kinda dark and creepy then after 5 minutes you get abducted by aliens and it turns to shit, also gta4 was a big letdown.

Edit:

Prey.

As soon as the protagonist opened his mouth I began to hate it, then it was cemented when I fired my first shot of the shitty guns.
Your Ninja powers are legendary, didnt think anyone played prey.

I started the tutorial mission in CoD4, took three and a half steps forward and fired my gun once. It was at that moment that I realized that under no circumstances could I derive any pleasure from this game.

Rayman for PS1. That game pissed me off to no end. Still finished it though. I seem to have a penchant for abusing myself when it comes to bad video games.

You just compared Alone in the Dark to System Shock 2. This is real. You just said that. This is an actual quote from you.

I would also have to say Far Cry 2. I was like..."So this is it? I just drive around and kill various people with no real purpose, plot, or structure? Hmm...no thanks."
