Jesus, what the fuck is wrong with people these days? I mean, I'll have sympathy if English isn't your first language, but other than that, the OP CLEARLY states that this thread is for your opinion. Your. Fucking. OPINION.
Not facts. Not reasons. Not documentation to back up every fucking sentence (Citation needed).
I don't have to explain shit. My opinion: Halo sucks, Marathon was better. Simple as that. And being the predictable fanboys that you all obviously are, you start jumping on me with "WHY DOES IT SUCK GIVE ME A REASON! NOW!" Shut the fuck up and stick to the topic.
Firstly, you've been hit by anti-anti-Halo rage, sorry, there's nothing I can do about that.
But I have to disagree with all the bits I've quoted. What's the point in a thread that's just opinion? It's boring, just a load of nerds screaming into the wind. Can you imagine how skull-fuckingly dull this thread would be if it was just people posting the game without reasons? That's not a discussion, it's a list. Throw in the fact that it's interesting to know why people don't like the things you do like and you can only reach one conclusion: People need to state their reasons.
So, onwards: Spore. Seems like they spent about 6 years on the editor, 6 weeks on the game. Everything beyond the gorgeous tidepool level was spectacularly shallow. And then there's the constant way you always have TWO limiting factors. "Sorry, can't use this part, you don't have enough evolution points, and then you need to go and FIND the part" and it keeps getting worse "Sorry, you can't terraform this planet. You need to quest to get the part, and then pay through the nose for one use". Terraforming itself was painful, each item takes about a minute to cool-down, and using one creates a massive cloud of particle effects so you can't see what you've just done. Should've been another editor.
