Your Gaming Capital Sins

[Smeggs]

I hated Bad Company 2.

Absolutely could not stand it.

From what I remember from the first game, the gun mechanics are now set up differently and it just didn't feel like any of the guns I fired had any kick to them, unlike MW2 (<totally not flame bait right there, MW2 isn't the pinnacle of shooters either). I never bothered to play past the second campaign level, and only played in a single match of the Multiplayer. I rented that game for five nights, returned it in one.

However, BF3 still looks good regardless, and I will still give it a try if only to have a dogfight in jets.

...and I like Oblivion more then Morrowind.

 

[GrimGrimoire]

I actually enjoyed Far Cry 2.
Not for the story though.

 

[gCrusher]

2) I liked Deus Ex: Invisible War (Again, I didn't judge it by its predecessor, but rather as a shooter on its own merits.)

Blasphemy!

...no, no, I really liked NG Resonance's music. Dystopian future techno-pop for the win.

OT: I'm a grown man, and I play Just Dance and Just Dance 2 on the Wii. I also did Ke$ha's 'Tik Tok' game dance in the middle of a Best Buy yesterday. Srsly.

i equate saving with cheating. >.> yeah, not gonna stop me either, but it is a perspective i have that goes against general gamer values.

 

[th3p8riot]

I loved to play Alien vs Predator but nobody seems to play it anymore.

 

[Uzbekistan]

I don't play a lot of games.
I like to watch others play them.

 

[Thanatos5150]

I think Half-Life 2 is entirely without merits and the Gravity gun is boring.

I rather enjoy cover-based combat, because I think it's only reasonable to put a wall between you and the bullets.

I think regenerating health is brilliant, because it allows the devs to enforce strict control every encounter and make the thing tougher as a whole. (As opposed to playing DOOM II, where I often got blown up because a fly farted in my direction after a tough firefight before I could find any health kits)

T
1) I honestly enjoyed The Legend of Spyro games (I think the fact that I didn't judge them based on the Insomniac trilogy helped.)

I'm with you on that one,not my favorite but still pretty good games.

OT:I liked both Metroid Fusion and Prime 2: Echoes better than Metroid Prime 1.

Also the only Valve game I've ever really liked is Portal(did not play the squeal)

Mine would be that I don't see what all the fuss is about when it comes to PS3 exclusives they all seem fairly average to me hence why I never touch my PS3 anymore.

 

[CrimsonBlaze]

I bought Pokemon Black, even though I knew that there was a chance I wouldn't like it.

I was right.

 

[Sir Prize]

I never completed FF7 and liked FF9 better.

 

[Queen Michael]

In my opinion, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is a genuinely good piece of storytelling.

 

[AwkwardTurtle]

It sold out weekly when it came out. Don't feel bad. It sold faster than any other game at the store I was working at over the Christmas/End of year holiday period when it came out.

(Yes it was an actual gaming store. Not a department store.)

Glad to know I'm not completely insane. When I mentioned the game to a few friends who game they simply stuck up their nose and thought I had gone mad.

 

[RaikuFA]

I liked DNF. Then again I've never really played a Duke Nukem game before it.

 

[Toeys]

there are no perfect games, so its good that there are haters there to hate so that the developers always have something to reach for. i like too many games so my capital sin would
probably be to accept too many games for what they are and only look at their quality sides...

For instance ive bought both modern warfare 2 and black ops, even though i wasnt going to in the first place. i dont really like the games too much either...
but for some reason my steam says i spent near 1k hours on modern warfare 2 multiplayerand over 300 hours on black ops multiplayer.

maybe its the low bar on the multiplayer... i find it incredibly easy to dominate those games

 

[targren]

It can be hating a fan favorite character

One word: Sephiroth

Expanded to three words: Final Fantasy VII

It was passable when it came out, though disappointing. The FMVs were overhyped, the game was buggy, and the story was swiss cheese. And yet it's still lauded by legions of magnesium-pantied fans over a decade later.


And I loved VIII. Go figure.

 

[HentMas]

I love the Call Of Duty franchise... and hate the "Battlefield" franchise

weird huh...

 

[geezah91]

I really don't like Oblivion..it just lacks direction
