Games everyone likes except you

[SonicWaffle]

Street Fighter - any of them. I don't have the reactions to string combos together, I can barely even pull off a shoryuken. It doesn't help that all the friends I play it with grew up playing the II arcade machines every day, and unlocked all the characters from IV in about a day. Continually losing is no fun.

Fable II - could have been so, so much more than it was. The potential for a decent RPG was there, but they never followed up on it. No real incentive to do the side-quests either, except to lengthen the game a little so you didn't feel like you'd wasted *quite* so much money.

Obsidian - Boring. Badly made and boring. Then again, I played Fallout 3 first, so I was probably spoiled by that. I kept trying to enter VATS during a swordfight...

Pretty much all RTS's. Either they are way too involved and complicated and you get raped, or way too simple and you pwn. It's either far too difficult or way too easy. Never really seen an inbetween.

 

[GonzoGamer]

never could get into any of the GTA's. just not my style i guess.

That makes two of us.
Also, Burnout: Paradise, it got a ton of praise and all but I found it to be a pretty boring racing game with a very annoying radio host.

You don't like open world games or just the gta style of gaming?

I thought Burnout Paradise was really disappointing but that's because Burnout Revenge is probably my favorite car game. However Burnout Revenge was mostly a regular racing game just with the added annoyance of being in a sandbox. If it had crash junctions and a higher ratio of road rages to races, I would've loved it.

Just GTA's style. I get bored really quick if an open world game isn't fantasy or sci-fi.

I've got to agree with you on Burnout Revenge, that game is great. Plus that's mostly the main reason why I highly disliked Burnout Paradise.

So what about Fallout 3. Did you dig that?

It seems like everyone I know that loved Burnout 3 & Revenge were incredibly disappointed with Burnout Revenge. They took a really unique driving franchise and turned it into every other driving franchise.

 

[Sgtkillalot0]

GOW/2 (gears, not gawd), and COD5

 

[Uilleand]

Fable and Oblivion
Guh!!
...and I'm a fantasy RPG freak. Both of these bored me to tears. Even Oblivion, which is ZOMGSOPRETTY!!!11!, gave me zero impetus to to actually give a shite about the storyline.
Save the world!
Why? All you people suck.

 

[robinkom]

Halo
Gears of War
Call of Duty
Killzone
Army of Two

Seeing a pattern here? Yes, I am completely uninterested in the current-generation FPS genre.
Also...

Final Fantasy VII (I played it. I beat it. All before the new millennium when this game was relevant. It's rabid fan-tard following has forced me to hate it AND them. 'Overrated' isn't even the word for it.)
Final Fantasy X (because everything about it completely uninterested me from the style and story to the voice acting and disturbingly J-Pop direct sequel.)
Little Big Planet (because it looks downright creepy.)
Naruto games (because I don't like the Anime either... or the 12 year olds that watch and play it.)
Resident Evil (because the broken controls of the first 2 demanded I suck at them so I never bothered with any installments afterward.)
Beatles Rock Band (I don't like the Beatles, not because I'm "too young" to get them, because they are overrated classic rock n'roll shit.)
Madden Football (because American football is a sport for damaged people.)
Tomb Raider (because of shitty controls, schizophrenic difficulty, and because I don't like female characters that are sold solely on their ample bosom. That's for adolescents who have never seen a pair of breasts before.)

metal gear solid , played 30 minutes , got bored

 

[Mythbhavd]

All incarnations of Halo fall under this heading.

 

[KittywifaMohawk]

Mass Effect. I can't stand that game to be honest.

 

[Slash Dementia]

So what about Fallout 3. Did you dig that?

It seems like everyone I know that loved Burnout 3 & Revenge were incredibly disappointed with Burnout Revenge. They took a really unique driving franchise and turned it into every other driving franchise.

It was fun for about a month or so, but it got boring after even with the DLC that I bought for it.

 

[Nullphantom]

Soul Calibur, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Street Fighter, basically any fighter except SSB, although I dont think its considered a true fighting game. Basically I'm like Yahtzee on the subject of fighting games

 

[zerzxes]

Counter strike. It's not that good of an FPS!

 

[Metalix Knightmare]

Grand Turismo. For all the cries of realism the game's fans carry, well I'll just let Hsu answer this for me.

"IT'S A RACING GAME! On a good day I can POOP a racing game!"

 

[Callate]

System Shock 2. Which speaking of in less than hushed and reverent tones is apparently heresy in some circles. I'm of the wacky opinion that repeatedly running a gauntlet of inifitely respawning enemies whose weapons break and whose ammunition disintegrates upon death is neither the definition of "fun" nor "suspense".

 

[JoshGod]

half life
tf
gta
cod 5
re5
all sports/racing/music games, excluding red card and burnout revenge.

and
the adventures of potatoeman! and his arch nemesis the unlucky leprichaun!

 

[Usurpurus]

A lot of my Valve happy friends love TF2. When that released, they were all exciting. I tried it through my copy of the Orange Box and hated it...

Precisely that, I really do not see why people adore TF2. Maybe its the combo of classes and FPS, just doesn't rock my socks. With that said I've already preordered Borderlands. I also didn't enjoy CoD4 much but that was probably because I wasn't into my xbox at the time and din't play past the first campaign mission or even try online.

 

[Valate_v1legacy]

Life... Awful, blurry graphics in combat, sore muscles, a ridiculus damage system... Combat leveling takes too long...

 

[S3K710N]

I dont like the halo's but iI keep them I liked halo 1 dunno why I just think its the best one I also dont like COD 4 and WAW the FIFAs, driving games, Warhammer dawn of war 2 bit of a let down =[

 

[Lordmarkus]

Would say Portal, Counter-Strike and WoW. They are just a big meh.

 

[redisforever]

Halo 3
Too good looking
too bad playing
