what are your "unpopular" opinions on gaming?

[Unia]

1)Look, you either have a reliable, standard piece of hardware made for one purpose it fills perfectly (console)
or a mishmash of hand-picked components you can rig to do whatever you want (PC).

Trying to mix the 2 only ends in tears and headaches.

2) I will like tactical real-time battles when the friendly AI develops past 'goldfish'. Until then I'll stay with turn-based. Saying "oh but you can pause to give commands" is a lame excuse.

3) Kingdom Hearts is a shallow, atrocious POS taking the low road in every part of gameplay. See also point 2.

4) I honestly can't make out some of these captchas. "Is it an e or a c? Only one way to find out!"

Lair is a good/fun game.

 

[Eveonline100]

1. Half Life and Portal aren't that great
2.customization in FPSs is useless
3.Bad Company 2 isn't that great
4.EA is ok
5.I enjoy The Sims
6.Rome Total War was the worst RTS I played
7.TF2 Free to Play is a good thing
8.Project Reality is boring
9.I liked Fable 2
10. I don't want to see anymore Resident Evil, Silent Hill or Final Fantasy

This is my opinion.

i'm pretty sure people would agree with you on 4,5,10 since well i do too.

Final Fantasy is crap. The entire series.


Bioware has made ONE good game, and its not KoToR (WTB Jade Empire II?)


Bethesda has never made a good game, period.


Call of Duty has never been any good. Ever.


Killing Floor is far better then Left 4 Dead.


Blizzard has not put out a good game since Lord of Destruction, and Starcraft II specifically was the worst RTS I've played since 7th Legion

No More Heroes is one of the most tedious and boring games ever made: I like Suda51 but I hate his games.

R* needs to stop trying to be so serious with their games: whenever they try and make me cry, they just make me laugh. I feel like they peaked with San Andreas.

All the consoles this generation are crap: you either get a toy, a machine with good hardware & horrible support, or a machine with horrible hardware and good support.

Gamers are suckers: otherwise gamestop wouldn't make such obscene profits and the market would strike down defective consoles, defective games, and predatory practices like regular fees, "pass" schemes, and games with little content and a lot of dlc. Instead, it all seems to grow in popularity.

Fallout 3 is the best of the series: 1 & 2 were really good for their time but are really showing their age now and while New Vegas made a few improvements, but it also took away a lot and was a technical mess.

Bringing consoles online has so far done more harm than good... to the consumer.

Yahtzee (while hilarious) isn't picky enough.

Most of what's being called "Innovative gameplay" now a days are old gimmicks most have abandoned: see Heavy Rain.

There are maybe only 2 games released a year that are actually worth $60... if we're lucky.

About 99.5% of dlc is overpriced crap.

9.I liked Fable 2
This is my opinion.

fable 2 was the best one in my opinion. High Five... I guess...

Half Life is amazing though, hopefully eventually youll understand.

HIGH FIVE!

I understand why people like Half Life 1 and 2 so much, I love the mechanics of the game and the gameplay but I didn't like the story and little things.

Well I found the story cool and most of the physics things and puzzles and stuff, but the combat actually got a bit repetitive after awhile It wasnt enough for me to stop playing though which is good.

 

[CaptainHook69]

6.Rome Total War was the worst RTS I played

Thats cause it's not an RTS. lol

Rome Total War is a RTS and a Turn based strategy.

Yea, I know that but I consider it more of a turn based game because the turn based aspect of it is more important, well atleast the way I play. lol

 

[Violent-Power]

1. If gaming not leaving a subcultural stage, gaming will only be entertainment and hardly called art. Especially to Asia's games.

2. Again to Asia's games. They need translation to get into the world, if not, the gap between western and eastern gaming will never close. Plus, not everyone willing to learn the language they don't know in order to play a game that is using other dialect.

3. I agree everyone should enjoy games in the way they like. However if gamers focusing only one aspect of gaming (either story or gameplay) is deadly to a gamers community.

 

[ajofflight]

1) I didn't like Lost Planet
2) I really like Lord of the Rings: Conquest
3) Despite what MovieBob may say, I DO like to turn off my brain once in a while and just enjoying big kabooms
4) I can never get through The Godfather. I really like what I've seen, it's just soooooo long.

Wait, scratch that last one, it's not game-related. Or the third.

 

[whtkid6969]

1) I like RTS's on consoles

2) Some of the Harry Potter games were fun for me

3) I'm not a fan of Blizzard

4) I seem to be the only one of my friends that think a game being pushed may be a good thing

5) I liked Gears 2 more than Gears 1

6) Sonic just never felt that fun to me

7) Dragon Age 2 stunk compared to Dragon Age: Origins

 

[Mark Flanagan]

1) I don't like Valve and Steam.

2) DA2 was a vast improvement in every regard (excluding story) on DA:O

3) Master Chief is boring and Halo Reach is the best Halo game for his absence.

 

[Manji187]

-Single player > multiplayer

-Morrowind > Oblivion

-FF IX is the best PSX era FF and beats the shit out of every subsequent FF, including FF XIII.

-Mass Effect 2 is overrated

-9 out of 10 games have a bland, generic story. Often: good vs evil (no ambiguity)...in the end you save the day (unequivocal victory).

-Gameplay progress by way of death and destruction alone shows just how juvenile (power fantasies) and non-imaginative developers/ gamers can be.

 

[k3v1n]

- Dead rising 1 is fucking boring, and one of the worst games I've ever played.

- Halo Wars, was actually a good game(and actually played well on a console).

- Splinter Cell saga is better than MGS(except Snake eater)

 

[OdyCay]

1. oblivion is the best example of an RPG
2. MW2 was good
3. duke nukem forever suck large ...
4. xbox 360 is better than pc
5. reach was epic
6. ubisoft montreal (makers of ass creed) cant tell stories

 

[OdyCay]

and single player is better

 

[OdyCay]

and steam is terrible !!!!

im sorry i have a lot of opinions

 

[ProfessorEkim]

Metal Gear Solid is not the best franchise ever,
I didn't really like Mass Effect or Oblivion,
Kingdom Hearts was ok but now that the story is totally bananas, it's not anymore,
I just don't like mainstream shooters.
