Critics be damned! Naughty Bear has a Metacritic rating of 37, and yet I'm loving every single second of it.

Name a similar experience you had with this sort of disagreement.

What's Naughty Bear?

And a similiar experience would be that I immensly enjoyed Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, yet most reviews put it average at best.

A similar one? Uh... Most reviews tend to hate anything Gundam in games, but I liked a few of them. Especially some of the PS2 ones.

Mercenaries 2 is one of my favourite games. Yes, it's buggy. Yes, it's cheesy. But it's so freaking fun!

Well most critics and gamers greatly dislike, if not hate, the Godfather games, but I actually enjoy them quite a bit.

Basically, its a story of a bear who kills all the other stuffed bears because he wasn't invited to a birthday party.....or at least, that's the most I remembered about it.

OT: I've never had a similar experience (Or one that I could remember at least). Most of the games I enjoyed have usually gained popular opinion and those that I don't enjoy tend to gain average or mediocre ratings. Its probably just a coincidence though.

I liked Soldier of Fortune 2 and Manhunt 2, also loved Parasite Eve 2 which is pretty much universally panned by the Parasite Eve 1 fanboys.

wow, someone else has seen this film. Nobody I know has heard of it. I fucking love it. By the way, 57 isn't as bad for a film on meta as it is for a game, films always score lower.

I hear a lot of hate thrown towards Alpha Protocol, but after playing it at a friends house, I love it.

Your choices actually mean something and have an actual effect on the world. Something very few, if any games these days do.

It doesn't matter what other people think of a game or movie. And if Rotten Tomatoes is to be believed, the Evil Dead is an absolutely flawless masterpiece (I'm not saying it isn't... but and 100%? That's even better than Hot Fuzz and Let the Right One In.) while The Book of Eli is a stack of poo poo pancakes (absolutely excellent film and if more people actually payed attention to it they could tell that the whole movie was a commentary on how the Bible has and continues to be misused in order to give the corrupt power to control the weak, with absolutely great special effects and a truly interesting story, the Book of Eli was a great movie that gave you a good story and presented it in such a way that lets it stand out from all the other post apocalyptic movies).

Funny how some people mention Mercenaries 2 as underrated... cnsidering it's made by the same studio that did Naughty Bear! :)

Naughty Bare looks awesome! I never listen to reviews because most game reviewers dont get the same sick pleaseure out of games that I do Which leads me to my OT post.

OT:
I really liked Fable 2 (although I hate Peter Molyneux) for the soul purpose of my money tactic:

1. Marry villager,
2. Get Dowry,
3. Murder spouse in forest,
4. Repeat.

This is one of my mild sick pleasures from that game.
Another is:

1. Shag someone in front of their spouse,
2. Use "extort" emote on the mortified husband,
3. Profit,
4. Repeat.

Im not going to delve any further into my sick games, this post is long enough.
