What popular games do you hate?

[Cooperblack]

Metal Gear solid : Guns of the patriots.

It's not a game, It's a running cut scene with minuscule points of interaction with the player.. actually most of the time i get the creeping feeling that the game would rather play with itself and that I'm interrupting something just by being there.

And the story(if you can keep awake) is borderline retarded.

 

[Raziel_Likes_Souls]

Almost all turn-based rpg's.

Yeah, pretty much. And I'm the guy who spent 60 bucks for Persona 3 and 4. Then again, they're the remnants of a dying breed.

On topic, Final Fantasy IX and everyone of them after X. Specifically, 12 and 13.

IX was just not my style, and 12 and 13. Oh God. Don't even get me started.

Anything with Half-life, GTA, CoD or Elder Scrolls in the title.

Whilst they aren't actually terrible games they bloody well aren't good ones, and the fact that people go on about them like every time you play one its a bit like shagging *insert sexual interest here* AND satisfying her.

Actually I'll take back a bit about GTA, they were fun when they were top down and 2D.

I suppose that also on my list but not so high up would be Sonic, Mario, GRAW, Hellgate London and Dragon Age. The last two suckered me in with cinematic trailers that made love to my eyes, and then failed to deliver even remotely on game play.

Oh and someone already mentioned the Fable sequels, they tarnish the memory of the first game, which was excellent. It seems with each follow up game they start by writing down a list of all the cool and awesome stuff, all the involving things, then remove about half of them and replace it with something shit.

Sonic 2. The level designs suck ass, the soundtrack is god awful.

Half-Life. Why doesn't Gorden Freeman talk? Valve are so lazy not finding a voice actor worthy of being the protagonist. Also headcrabs are uninventive and gay. The gameplay is bland and repetitive. Also those puzzles are boring.

Speaking of Valve, what is with Portal? You only get one gun and it doesn't work properly.

Oh also System Shock 2 sucks balls. Why does everyone seem to like that game? Bioshock 2 is waaaay better!

Nice trolling

 

[Bender Rodriguez]

Call of Duty.

I enjoy single player, but after that its just dull and bland.
Same old same old.

 

[gbemery]

I don't like any of the final fantasy games. I don't like JRPG's in general but there are a few I do like.

 

[Legion IV]

Call of Duty, Halo, Final Fantasy- the ultimate trio of overrated bullcrap.

If i had to pick my trio it'd be like.

Mass Effect, Halflife, Portal.

 

[conmag9]

Halo and I have an agreement. It makes millions of dollars incredibly easily, and I sit in my room loathing it.

This is not Halo's fault, I suppose. The game is...sub-par, to me, in a variety of ways, but it's by no means the worst thing I've ever gotten my hands on. It's the huge emphasis on multiplayer (which I DO despise) and the community that's sprung up around it. These things have made me consider declaring war on it, were it not for the fact that a war game would probably kick my ass faster than any other anthropomorphic representation of a genre.

 

[The Maddest March Hare]

Half Life, Portal, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress and CoD all came to mind. I find them all the be bland, repetitive and poorly designed games that simply inspire me to remove the game from the disc tray and never touch it again.

If I have to pick 1 out of that lot as the biggest and most offensive annoyance, I'd have to go with Left 4 Dead, a couple of insanely short levels that have basically no replay value even with their fabled "AI Director" just doesn't cut it for me as a major release title. I'd expect something like that to be available on Xbox Live for about 800 points at most.

 

[FortheLegion]

All the games like Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Morrowind. I just have trouble playing them.
Not 5 minutes ago i started playing Morrowind for the first time and well.... I accidentally stole an egg and then the whole town came running to attack me......
How was I supposed to know that crate was off limits?!?!? >: /

I didn't save so now I have to restart
ATTEMPT #2 INITIATE

 

[Vakz]

Any JRPG. I really can't stand them. I have tried several (including a few Final Fantasy, etc.) but I still haven't found a single one I liked.

 

[RhombusHatesYou]

I hate all popular games... unless they're popular to hate as well, in which case I'm staggeringly indifferent.

I also hate you.

 

[ckel8330]

Any game which is released on a yearly basis to appease their fickle, yet highly demanding fan base

 

[The Night Shade]

COD,FF and sports games

 

[vLibertineJediv]

Assassins creed, the first one was barely passable but the second just seemed like diamond boredom. you call that a franchise?

I have the weirdest feeling when the main dude actually starts doing something, we'll be jumping off of skyscrapers and dual-wielding pistols...cash in.

 

[vLibertineJediv]

Any game which is released on a yearly basis to appease their fickle, yet highly demanding fan base

that pretty much sums it up, actually.
