Criticize your favorite game.

[AMMO Kid]

Zelda The Windwaker - I liked the Ocean it made the world seem really big but I didn't like the part where you have to travel all across it to the pieces of the triforce...that part was so boring after the first time.

Red Dead Redemption - Story Missions were a little to on the side for me, I don't want to help a crazy guy for 2 hours of gameplay just so he can hop onto of a wall and do nothing during the assault on the fortress...

Mass Effect 1 - UUmmmmmmmmmmmmm..................the DLC's weren't that great.

Mass Effect 2 - It's not as good as Mass Effect 1

Mass Effect 3 - It's not out yet, I absolutely hate that part...

Mass Effect: Retribution - It turned out Mass Effect Retarded which is Mass Effect Regrettible

Halo does not taste like chicken not matter how much bbq sauce I put on it.
...
well, its true!

 

[RatRace123]

Mass Effect:

The shooting was a bit unrefined
The partner AI was monumentally retarded
Leveling up proficiency (accuracy and stability) with weapons is absolutely stupid in a shooting game, I know it's an RPG, but still.
The galaxy map was a bir boring
The Mako controlled like Shepard was drunk
Each planet was just a reskin of the same desert environment, and each building on the planet was just one of the same 3 places over and over and over and over...
Texture pop-ups
I absolutely freakin' love this game
It's my favorite game of all time
Despite everything I said, everything else in the game is absolutely perfect!

KotOR:

Taris! JUST FREAKIN' TARIS! I HATE THAT GODDAM PLANET, I'M ABSOLUTELY HAPPY WHEN IT BLOWS UP!

Dragon Age: Origins, the sex scenes were hilariously bad and the music didn't help either. I beelined for the sex topics when I found out that Zevran was bisexual and laughed my head off during the worse-than-cringe-inducing gay sex scene.

Kotor-Mission Vao was annoying

No she is not.


Okay, actually she is...

 

[Fantastic Foxkins]

Silent Hill 2 - The camera angles when combined with the crappy combat system makes a very frustrated gamer especially in hard mode.

Kingdom Hearts - Unskippable cut-scenes before some really hard fights. I got so sick of Riku's speech that I had to turn the game off for a good few weeks.

Portal - Too damn short and puzzles were far easier then expected.

Resident Evil 5 - The item system, what the hell was that all about? An egg taking up the same room as H&K PSG1? The story was shit as usual and the puzzles broke up the game play way too much. I still do genuinely like that game although its not my favourite.

Rock Band, while enjoyable, is just a futile reminder that I have minimal musical talent, and will live my life reminding myself of this fact by playing games such as these.

Lets go Rock Band and guitar hero!

GH: You're too damn hard. Game 1 and 2 had a nice challenge with the hardest songs (Free Bird, Jordan, Bark at the Moon) but then Game 3 came out and MEDIUM difficulty was like pulling hairs. Knights of Cydonia. WHAT THE CRAP. Why are the hammer-ons and pull-offs so hard to do??? WHY??? AND WHY ARE THERE SO MANY??? I played World Tour and compared it to Rock Band. Wow. Rock Band has a nice fun feel to it. Anyone can pick up a guitar and have fun, but still feel like it's challenging. There's a good balance there. World Tour? You have Sweet Home Alabama and Hotel California. These are two very VERY popular anthems from the 70s. And you made them as hard as you possibly can. I can't even beat Sweet Home on hard. I CAN'T BEAT IT. What is the matter with you? Are you forgetting we play these to have fun?

RB: It got a little better in RB2, but is still a problem: The Kick pedal for drums. It doesn't respond EVER. EVER. And you throw in sooooo maaaaaany into each drum part. I've either got a cramp by the end, OR die halfway through. There is no middle ground. Do you know what GH does with it's drum parts? The EASIEST setting is just the kick pedal. And it's pretty damn responsive. Yours will respond either right before or right after I press it and will constantly break my combos.

Both: Easy mode is easy. The jump from easy to medium isn't too much. The jump from medium to hard is INSANE. All of a sudden every single song has a series of hammer-ons that you have to execute PERFECTLY to get right. I have the hardest time with hammer-ons. Also! Can you make it so that we have the option to either just 'press the button to play' or 'press button, then flick the strum bar' instead of both? I can't tell you how many times a hammer-on comes up. I press the button, the note is played, I don't notice and flick the strum bar, and my combo is screwed. Dammit, guys! Expert is... Well... Only for experts and I understand that. Which is why I stay the hell away from that difficulty.

That being said: Both games give a fun environment to just rock out to, and although you don't have ALL the songs I like, you do have most. And it really is a nice guilty pleasure.

When you go through KOTOR a second time Taris is SOOOO BORING.

 

[SailorShale]

Anarchy Online. The engine is old and weak and nobody plays it anymore. Thus it's near impossible to team and get up to level 220 without previously having a 220. Comon Funcom, roll out Anarchy Online 2!

 

[Kair]

KotOR is too short.
DA:O has stupid DLC
Oblivion has too few voice actors and you can feel that the world is computer generated. Also, the Oblivion planes get boring quickly.
Total War games have horrible AI.

Sorry, couldn't decide which was my favorite.

I agree with your last three having played them, and will add to your Oblivion statement that Fallout 3 suffers exactly the same problem.

 

[Terramax]

Under Defeat - You get unlimited continues and you can't turn it off. When playing 2 players my friends will take this for granted and will constantly allow themselves to die as they're no longer punished for it.

Guardian Heroes
1.) Bosses could do with a little more strategy.
2.) The story mode should allow for a 3 player mode, with one person being able to play as the Golden Warrior
3.) You can't skip cinematics, with one taking a long time to get through the dialog

 

[F-I-D-O]

Kotor-Mission Vao was annoying

No she is not.


Okay, actually she is...

You can't deny it!

 

[Ghostkai]

Borderlands - I can't kill the Claptraps.

Mass Effect 2 - erm.... the mining? (then again, after recently playing again, I'm pretty positive they've sped it up)

Oblivion - 8 voice actors (ish)

Fallout 3(pre DLC's) - Worst ending ever.

MW2 - Commando is game ruiningly annoying.

 

[Mr. Eff_v1legacy]

Silent Hill 2 - some bad voice acting, and combat isn't very good.

 

[AWAR]

Fallout 2. Come on, not another CTD!!

CoD WaW: There's no one who play nazi zombies in the pc version anymoar :'(

 

[Chromwell]

Dodge the lightning... 200 fucking times?! SERIOUSLY?!

Beat 00:00:00 on a chocobo, what the fuck? Retarded controls, seagulls hit you when they missed or they drop down right in front of you giving you no chance to avoid.

But we still beat it anyway... fucking game...

Although, I never did the Lightning one.

Anybody who did deserves a medal and his/her name chiseled in a wall in recognition of there achievement.

Hahaha!!! I thought the same thing about the lightning dodging many years ago when I first picked up the game. As for the chocobo race, I sat there for hours before i finally beat that shit...

I think my least favorite was Wakka's. Blitzball was cool but, if I remember correctly, you needed to play like 150 freaking games and win every championship or something. SCREW THAT!

At the moment, my favorite game is TF2. I absolutely love the pace at which the game moves; there's rarely a dull moment! However, F*CK SENTRIES

 

[Kuchinawa212]

Tales of Symphonia

I can't believe it. 2! Count them 2!!!! game discs! That means they had to have more room to expand the story and the gameplay world...wait that's a good thing.

Wait! I know. Kratos doesn't have a beard. Yeah that's it.

 

[tomzu]

mw2 oh there is a guy running towards me with tactical knife well i shoot him in the face with shotgun no he does commando halo lunge attack and kills me

 

[PurePareidolia]

Sure, why not?

In Half Life you never got enough ammo for the experimental weapons to be viable and Xen needed better story linking it together so I had any idea what was going on, even before addressing gameplay issues.

Half Life 2's arsenal is utterly mundane apart from the gravity gun and it's actually been made smaller since the episodes won't let you use bugbait - one of the only creative weapons in the game, again apart from the gravity gun.

Fallout 3 and Oblivion are both utterly broken without unofficial patches and the NPCs are probably robots. Their writing is also laughably bad at worst and the voice acting and animating is laughably bad all the time.

Deus Ex has some of the worst voice acting ever.

Mass Effect 2's plot makes no sense. Mass Effect 1 had three prefab buildings and they forgot to apply erosion to their terrain.

TF2 has no single player.

Serious Sam HD doesn't have shifting gravity.

Portal...had needlessly frustrating challenge maps?

Psychonauts had... one level I found slightly more frustrating than the other levels. That's all I can think of, but it was the last level... Dammit Psychonauts! I can't stay mad at you!

Jeez, it's almost like my favourite games are designed to be hard to criticize.

 

[TerranReaper]

Starcraft:
Crappy interface, crappy AI pathfinding, generic hivemind alien race, generic futuristic humans, generic technologically advanced alien race and the amount of playtime that people have above you makes every loss that much more painful.
