For all those mentioning Final Fantasy XII, you are definitely not the only ones - the press loved it too. (And why not? It is really good.)

On topic: Final Fight: Streetwise.

Alone in the Dark 5, or the newest one depending on who you talk to. I don't see why people hated it? It was innovative and focused more on things you found more than shooty shooty fun.

I'd say Dragon Age 2, Final Fantasy XIII and FFX-2.

Dragon Age 2 was an improvement over origins combat-wise (at least in my opinion). The obvious recycling of environments didn't bother me as much as I found the companions to be quite entertaining.

FFXIII, well, I personally loved the characters, the crisp style. In fact, my favourite part of the game are the first 17 hours. I don't dislike handholding as long as there are characters and a story worthy of keeping my attention. For me, that was the case in FFXIII.

I played FFX-2 before I'd played FFX. If I'd picked up FFX when it came out and had spent my time waiting for FFX-2 I would have been sorely disappointed, but perhaps because of the inverted order I quite liked the game. The combat system was fun and I liked the breezy happy-go-lucky atmosphere.

Also, people disliked Mirror's Edge?! Why?

I LOVED Alpha Protocol. Anybody who has played the game and liked it will know one of its bigger problems when I say it: Sis's story. It really needed elaborated, she was the most interesting character in the game and her story is cut off the second you leave Moscow.

Final Fantasy 13, Call of Juarez: The Cartel and Kane & Lynch: Dog Days.

EDIT: Oh, and WET.

EDIT (again): DA2. I don't get why people hate it, I even liked Anders. Ok, he was a bit whiny, but A: he reacted appropriatly to the situation and B: At least he wasn't genocidal. (Looks accusingly at Fenris.)

Final Fantasy X-2 is my favorite game of all time.
Final Fantasy XIII produced several of my favorite characters in any game, ever, most notably the precious and heartbreaking Oerba Dia Vanille and the impossibly charming Hope Estheim.
Final Fantasy XIV has consumed my life to the point where I don't really play much else.
Bionic Commando was one of my favorite 2009 releases.
Wet was another.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare had a really well-paced and engaging campaign that I adored.

COD 4? Minecraft? I don't think some of you understood the question. These are supposed to be games that are generally hated, not wildly successful and incredibly well-received games with a tiny vocal minority of people who whine about them.

Anyway, I'd have to say Trespasser. It's definitely a bad game, but it fails in a lot interesting ways. A first person simulation in that style hadn't really been made before or since, so it has a lot of novelty and charm, even though it's broken.

Dragon Age 2 was fun for me, lacked replayability but that was the only real issue I saw with it other than a few minute things like how OP the rogue is.
Clear an entire room with nothing but four moves? Dang son.

Oh, and for those that are into the Tales series, I liked Tales of Symphonia 2: Dawn of the New World.
Yes they changed Tales of Symphonia and made it different, that's the point of a sequel.

Lunar: Dragon Song. Yes it had some atrocious gameplay decisions, but I still <3 me some Lunar.

Pretty much any of the Worms games barring one or two people I know and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen PC, sad or "movie-game" or whatever but I really enjoyed the online play.

I didn't realize that you knew everyone in the universe. Sorry I don't have that many friends. Sorry I don't give a shit about what big wigs or anyone besides my immediate circle of friends thinks.

People hate Prototype for some reason. I literally cannot fathom why. I thought the game was amazing! YOU COULD JUMP KICK A HELICOPTER!

And yet, here you are complaining about their taste, and freaking out at people who disagree with them. Hmm, mixed messages much?

Help me understand, how is posting a response considered complaining?

brutal legend
everyone tells me they didnt pull it off well enough. its still in my top 3 games of all time.
Those people who say that they didn't pull it off well enough have no idea what they're talking about. I don't mean in terms of "their opinion is different than mine therefore they're WRONG", I mean in terms of the fact that they didn't experience the game as intended and therefore are complaining about an entirely different game than the one I, and most likely you, love.

...Depending on the person and the complaint, of course. But 99% of the time the people who didn't like Brutal Legend didn't play it right, it's as simple as that.

Well you did say, "everyone but me hates Mount and Blade", and I said "really? Everyone I talked to loved it", and then you said, "You jerk! How dare you like the same thing as me!?" And here I am wondering what you're going on about.
