I would have to go with FF7. It's so bad that it rivals barbie horse adventure.
Come on man! How could you not love Barbie Horse Adventures?

What's wrong with the PC Version? I love it...
It didn't run on release.
At all, didn't even pretend too.


Mine would probably be Gears of war, I just really disliked the game and all of my mates who have an xbox are/were in love with it. That or bioshock. IMO both were terrible games that get far too much praise.

This. As a jRPG fan I was recommended this game by everyone who has ever recommended me a game.I caved in to these demands and when I sat down to play this game, I. Hated. Every. Second. The characters were unlikeable [/understatement], plot cliched and painfully over the top in execution, the presentation was ugly (I'm talking art style not graphics) and the battles I find to be the worst attempt ever at mixing real time and turn based together.
Hmm, interesting... do you mind if I ask which JRPG's you really like? I'm not trying to troll, much as I love FF7 I know it's really not for everyone. Which JRPG's do you consider to not have a clichéd plot? I acknowledge FF7's plot is pretty over the top, but I think it has enough intricacy and interest to raise it well above most of its rivals.

As for a game that I dislike but a lot of other people love... Gears of War and F.E.A.R are certainly on that list, along with Painkiller, Super Smash Brothers, any Halo game (although the first was good for its time)... well, it's too long a list to complete here.

Bioshock.
Fallout 3.
Saint's Row 2.
GTA IV.

And many, many other games from this awful generation. I'm just glad that Steam does a good job in including indie games that aren't horrible. Like most mainstream titles.

Every FPS after Goldeneye 64/Perfect Dark.
Well...except Metroid Prime.
I suspect you mean console FPS games.

There have been awesome PC FPS games all throughout. <3

I'll bet. But alas, I am not a PC person. (I've tried)

No More Heroes.
Aside from a couple of boss battles, that was THE single most tedious game I have ever played. Everything was a chore: the overworld, the minigames, the bonuses. I get the humor but I think the joke was on us.

halo 2 and 3 i loved one it was somewhat original but yeah not after it, and also WoW it was as grindy as any other mmo i played just with uglier characters, i figured why pay for what i can get free on a ragnarok private server >.> (though now im on valkyrie the only free server in ragnarok but its full of bots but there i go ranting) the point of my rant is, many many popular games are over-rated

Sticking most on topic, definitely Halo 3, my friends wouldn't shut up about it, and when i played it none of it seemed true.

Galactic Civilizations II. I'm still puzzled by this. People whose opinions I trust insist it's a good game - hell, everyone says it's a good game - because it's so deep and complex and so on. When I play it, I think "...so what else is there to do?"

Crackdown, people tout it as better than GTA IV? Seriously? It feels childish, unfinished and sloppy. The story is hackneyed, the styling and characters are awfully clichéd and the targeting system is beyond horrible (yeah thanks, give me a live action game with essentially a turn based targeting system).

Good god people what were you thinking.
They were thinking that it was more fun for them than GTA IV,
Nobody said you had to like it as much.

MotorStorm. Everyone says it's so good, and it gets good ratings, and a sequel and all that jazz. I got it with my PS3. The first bad omen about the game was that the package was broken (A huge part of the top is partially broken off.)

I played it.

And it sucked.

Call of Duty: World at War
Same game, shittier guns, plus zombies. Woo. Jackasses.

Honorable mention to every single sports game too.

Half Life 2

(HE SAID IT AGAIN SLAY THE HERETIC)

No seriously it's a cool game I like some of the setting ideas and the aliens and Alyx Vance but seriously it is hardly the greatest contribution to the human race. It's just as overhyped if not more so than Halo so I don't see how it still gets such praise whereas Halo is scorned for it.

Please don't come after me with your torches and pitchforks and try to burn me at the stake. I have a right to an opinion.
I also have the right to my opinion. And my opinion is that your opinion doesnt count.

*shoots Vrex and walks away*

Cool, finally got to use that line. Ive never even played Half Life so dont take this seriously.

Anyway, the only time I can think of was when I played Fallout 3 for the first time and realised that is just Oblivion with guns but that just makes sense.
