Games that you hate but everyone else loves

JRPG's in general:
Final Fantasy, I played FF 7,8 and 10. Got bored of all of em halfway through because it was so repetitive, plus the combat bored me from the start, I just stuck around because I was hoping it would get better.
I've also played a couple Dragons Quest/Warrior games, hated them after a while too. They are just SOOOOO Boring...

Mass Effect. I found the interface atrocious, the story boring, and the gameplay unfun. Not to mention it has some of the worst sidequest design I have seen in any game.
Also, to a lesser extent, Minecraft. I don't hate it, it just gets boring far too quickly, and when I mod it to the point where it becomes fun, the game keeps crashing on me. It's not a bad game by any means, I just don't think it deserves it's ridiculous popularity.

This is another one of the threads that frequently pops up again and again... and again... and again... and again... always phrased exactly the same way, too. Always using superlatives, always inciting negativity. Ugh.TizzytheTormentor said:Seriously, didn't we have this same thread a week ago?
Anyway. I guess since I've never been able to finish Half-Life 2, that would be my pick. I don't hardly "hate" any games though, certainly not any that most other people would love. In fact, I seem to usually be the one enjoying games that everybody else "hates".
There is only one game that I actively hate, Final Fantasy XIII... It isn't near universally loved though.
However, I do not like Uncharted or Heavy Rain very much either, but I can at least see why people would enjoy them. Final Fantasy XIII on the other hand, I just can't see the appeal, but since they've made one sequel and another one in the pipeline there must be something the fans see in it, which is fine.

Fallout 3 & New Vegas. They're so cheaply done and half-assed. I've sat and watched my brother play hours of both games, and that's kind of fun, but trying to actually play them is balls. To be clear, I find the whole premise and a lot of the content to be quite interesting, but I think the game are horribly executed piles of sludge.
Goodness, that's quite a few. If I may ask, what made you dislike Dead Space, Half Life, and Portal?Garrett said:
I played it, and I thought it was pretty good, but not as good as most fans of it make it out to be. I still like Metroid, Mass Effect, Dead Space, & Halo all more.Terminate421 said:
HELL yes. I picked this up in the last Humble Indie Bundle and have gone back to it about four times now. I can never play it for more than 10 minutes. The art style is consistent and the atmosphere is done well (I guess), but it just seems like a road we've all been down before. It's the token Tim Burton "ironic because it's both dark and innocent at the same time" style, and I don't find it that intriguing or original. Beyond that it's just a really average platformer that occasionally has clever puzzles.Hungry Donner said:
Like I said, I've gone back and tried to get into it several times, but I feel like I've seen all it has to offer. It isn't bad, but I don't understand why it got so much attention.

Also, the original Mass Effect. I want to beat it because I hear 2 is WAAAAAY better, but I absolutely hate the first one.
I'm gonna have to go with Deus Ex: HR and Demon's Souls
Deus Ex, it was the bosses, i tend to play pure stealth if given the opportunity and the bisses just ruined the entire game for me
Demon's Souls just felt badly made, the combat was stiff and again, i went for a rogue-ish class and never found any use for the skill set ¬_¬
