It felt really stupid going into ME2, ok years later and technology across the galaxy has gone BACKWARDS. WTF. Its just stupid. And I don't think i bought the ship upgrades because they didnt seem to be doing anything and frankly you'd have to pay me to mine even 10 planets. So boring. I remember a review saying the mining was addictive and fun way to break up the action. Yeah no, someone was trying to justify their fanboyism there.

Your case did not smell like marzipan. I was severely disappointed.

Animal Crossing. The only thing i have to criticize is that there is little customization for the character, other than that perfect. But Wild World fixed that but took away way to much...then the only good part of the city one was the city. Yeah. Animal Crossing 1 ftw!!! The closest thing to a perfect game.

League OF Legends:
It absolutely murders new players, provided they don't already have someone they know inside it.

Metal Gear Solid (As a Whole):
More Gameplay, Less jokes being made about phone calls every 10 steps.

Kingdom Hearts 2:
Too many convoluded side quests.

Looking at each aspect of it individually, there is very little in Oblivion that isn't subpar.

And the game is still amazing, somehow.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Termina Field could stand to be bigger, if only for the sake of giving a better sense of realism in the geography. It was laughable how the snowy white mountains abruptly appear right next to the dusty canyon and the sandy beach.

I tried, legitimately, and that's all I came up with for my favorite game of all time.

Potential Spoilers Below. If you haven't beat these games.

Red Dead Redemption

My one complaint about the game that I can get on is the way John Marston acts and takes orders from the other characters in the game. I'll ride out to a far out city (Blackwater) and find an individual that can help me locate the dude I'm trying to kill, BUT only if I do a favor to appease his people (Spanish Revolutionaire). It didn't make any sense why I had to be everyone's errand boy to get anywhere in the game, John isn't that assertive except against poor wild deer and bears.


BioShock


One of my absolute favorite moments in the game is near the end when you find out who Fontaine really is and Tennenbaum rescues you to her flat in Olympus Heights and you two team up for a while trying to find the Lot 192 cure for Code Yellow. I took this time to soak in all the atmosphere and explored Apollo Square and Mercury Suites apartments (anyone know that weird ambient sound effect that sounds like a man screaming? It's alot in that area). I don't like how everyone I found onwards like Diane McClintock, Anna Cullpepper, Kyburz, Suchong, and every other character was already dead when I found them. It would've been awesome to actually meet those characters alive and interact with them if for only a bit.
My favorites as well. My problem with Red Dead Redemption was the money system. No matter what I did I couldn't run out of money. Also, the mp was a big dissapointment. In Bioshock, I didn't like the hacking. Also, the final boss is too easy and the endings are both rediculous. Aside from that, they're both amazing games.

Oblivion- Had some very long or boring quests like fighters guild at the beginning, mages guild in the middle, and thieves guild at the end (I hated those fucking glitchy walls). Also, everyone in that game was ugly as hell.
Mass Effect 1- Too many dumb open world side quests that didn't feel important and everyone knows about the Mako.
Mass Effect 2- Main storyline was ridiculous, and everyone knows about the probing.
Fallout 1+2- suffering through turned based combat
Fallout 3- glitchy as hell and pretty easy.
Fallout: New Vegas- somewhat glitchy at first and a stupid collection quest.

Metroid Prime
Thardus's blizzard attack blocks out the HUD, not cool Nintento.

Paper Mario: The 1000 Year Door
Why am I only earning one star point per enemy?!

Pikmin
The moans of your dying, childlike partners will weigh forever on your conscience.

Mass Effect 2
There is a limited ammount of money in the game (varren fighting doesn't count!) Which may cheat you out of your last upgrade. Also, we get that it's 'epic', but the plot might need some work.

Psychonauts
The double jump from a wall is very picky about when it wants to work.

Fallout New Vegas
I actually don't have anything bad to say about this gzzzzkkrrgdgjjtt
And stop eating my food companions!

Super Smash Bros. Melee
Wave Dashing is ridiculous. Using a physics exploit shouldn't be a requirement to be competitive with a game. Some characters are underpowered.

Portal
The final boss was way too easy. Unless you sucked at flinging, it was pretty simple. Not really challenging, both in logic and skill.

Team Fortress 2
It's a mess. It used to be such a beautiful game that ran superbly. Now it's a laggy game oversaturated with unlockable items, a terrible community that only cares about hats, and a money-mongering microtransaction scheme.

Left 4 Dead
Where's the weapons, zombies, and content that the demo promised? Oh wait, they're in Left 4 Dead 2.

Half-Life 2
One of the most unsatisfying endings to a game ever.

Braid
A couple of puzzles really pull dick moves. The story is totally ruined by the developer trying to make the game artsy and pretentious.

Secret of Monkey Island 2
Some of the puzzles are real wall-bangers.

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Golden Skulltulas. A side-quest you have to complete the game to finish, but its reward is completely useless by the time you're able to complete it.

Some times a game doesn't need more then the story line of help capitalism.

Metroid Prime

Why the hell are Chozo Ghosts spawning in almost EVERY ROOM in the Chozo Ruins area by the end of the game? And why must they spawn every single time I walk into the room instead of just appearing once and then stop appearing after I kill them all once?

Red Dead Redemption

The controls can be a bit hard to wrangle with in the midst of action-heavy sequences where you need to do something FAST. You have no idea how many times I've gotten into a fight... and anded up swinging a lasso around until I'd been filled with bullets and not so much as given one of my enemies a headache. Also, a few times my horse has spontaneously died--I'm not sure if it's a glitch or if it's intentional, but either way it's annoying as hell.

Mass Effect 2

This really applies to ALL Bioware games: none of the slums actually look/feel like slums. Supposedly, Omega is a downtrodden space station ruled by criminals--it's the sort of place you wouldn't want to go at night, let alone live on it thousands of miles from anywhere safer. However, in the game, the streets don't actually look all that dirty or dangerous. Hell, even the seedy nightclub looks like a reasonably nice place. In fact, there's only a handful of times that the game tries to remind you that this is supposed to be the bad part of the galaxy, but each time it just came across as a bit weak (the speech system that lets you instantly convince people if you've got enough nice guy or bad guy points doesn't really help here).

Call of Duty 4

I suppose that I don't really have much against this game, but it spawned a bunch of cheap knockoff sequels, each of which gets more and more bogged down with new features and panders more and more to its inane and obnoxious fan-base. CoD used to be one of my favorite games to play in my free time; now I can't stand to play more than a few minutes of it.

BioShock

Hacking.

Much of the challenge in the puzzles and platforming comes from the controls being designed to screw you over. And Mudokons are quite possibly the stupidest sentient video game species since the Lemmings of old.

Combat is far to easy, The challenge drops away after buying a few upgrades and the platforming is simple to the point of the hand holds glow.

Mass Effect 2
Planet mining was tedious, everything was too shiny, All the Mercs where the same just in different coloured uniforms.

Black and White
Molyneux over hype.

The hitboxes on some of the zeds' heads in Killing Floor, most notably the Scrake, are borked at times. The perk system, combined with the difficulty curve being as high as it is, also leads to a lot of frustration when new players join and don't quite realise that Hard difficulty is actually hard at first, and nigh impossible without leveled perks.
