By choosing not to? It's not like breathing, where it's beyond choice.Kasper Gundersen said:
It was before my time, and when i saw other people play it (once, i think) it didn't look more interesting than what i had previously been led to believe (oh, had heard of it. still not interested).
I've played it maybe once. It was engaging in it's simplicity, like most games from that era, but i would not fault anyone for having only heard of Tetris (or Pac-man, or any other from that era). Fun piece of video game history, but not something you should feel bad for not having played.minisammy said:
I totally agree, lots of people I know have heard of Dune. I don't know anyone else who has actually read it though. Two of them said they have, but they later admitted that they haven't. I think people claim to have read/watched/played things that they haven't. It was seriously awesome, and not at all as boring as all those other 'classics; out there that are utterly boring to read and everyone who reads them are pretentious old jerks.Fenring said:
Havent played Heavy Rain yet, many of my 360 friends hate the fact that i can play it...yet haven't.
I'm going to though.

This. Like a lot. People give me crap about it all the time. I just don't care enough about it.starfox444 said:
I'd give RE4 a shot. It's hard to believe but it's MUCH better than 5.tomtom666 said:
OT: I can't understand when someone of my generation has never watched The Simpsons. I also had a number of nerdy friends back in college who admitted that they never saw any of the Star Wars movies, but they made Star Wars references all the time. "That's it, turn in your pop-culture card at my desk."
I understand what you mean, but I'm just surprised that someone could not have played a game so famous. Sure it may not be everyone that likes it, but most people have at least tried it once :/DanielDeFig said:
I've never watched an entire James Bond film, they just don't do it for me for some reason. I'm glad you started with Mass Effect, seeing as how I believe it to be better in almost every way than the sequel.thenumberthirteen said:Someone where I work has only seen one James Bond movie, non of the Matrix or Godfather movies, and hasn't seen Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, Kill Bill, Goodfellas, or Citizen Kane. The worst part? He's a God Damned Cinema Projectionist!
Also I hadn't played Mass Effect until yesterday. I bought it in one of Steam's many sales, but hadn't played it yet. Yesterday I played for about 10 hours straight. Damn it is good
Now if you'll excuse me I think I may be able to fit in a game before I have to go to work. Perhaps if I skip showering and shaving I may have time for a whole mission...
You and me both.Stoic raptor said:

Also, I have never played any Half-Life game, let the hatred commence!

I know lots of people who have never played a game in their life *shrugs* its no big deal, I can't think of any games that you HAVE to have played.
That's just ridiculous, I've been playing games for years and I've never heard of that game, not having played one particular game does not make you "not a gamer".More Fun To Compute said:
There are a lot of games which I haven't played, mostly because I didn't have appropriate console, and there weren't many people playing so there was no one to recommend them. Also Internet was slow and inaccessible and I was 10 years old. Megaman, Zelda, Metroid, Doom, any Final Fantasy before VII come to mind. Also I have hard time remembering Duke Nukem, Deus Ex, System Shock, Planescape Torment cause back then I was too young to understand how good those games are.
It's not my fault if other people have been slack when it comes to telling you about the landmark games of the past.JoJoDeathunter said:
Never played the 1st Halo, Ocarina of Time, never watched Casablanca, tried to read the 1st dune book twice but never finished, played a bit of Deus Ex but never got into it, Dungeon Master nope.
Oh and to the guy who never heard of the Beatles, I wish I was that guy

KOTOR isn't even that bad looking. I just finished it myself, and I've never really cared about graphics, beyond being able to see what's going on with ease, and tell characters apart and stuff.Scarim Coral said:
It's certainly an awesome game.
Anyway, I have a friend who has never heard of Jimi Hendrix and has never seen Star Wars. I have no idea what she does in her spare time, it's weird...
Games... I don't think there's much. I will say that I've barely played Halo SP, maybe an hour of the story before I got bored.
MP, bit more often. I think twice now with friends, because it's practically the only thing our laptops can all run.
I tried to read Dune, I really did. I found it was one of the most boring fiction books I've read in my entire life. Sorry.Fenring said:
But yeah, most games i can understand why some people wouldn't play them. Even though I consider Kotor to be a great RPG doesn't mean that it will be good for someone who doesn't even like RPG's.
As for movies; Everyone must watch Star Wars. Come on, it will take a few hours and now you'll finally get those Star Wars references everyone throws in in conversation.
And everyone should watch The Matrix. And not the sequels. Because there were no sequels. NONE AT ALL!
Dragon Age was released in November 2009 (I take it you mean 2010) xDRavnican said:

Personally I think you should be shot if you haven't played Mafia (most people it seems, strangely - despite selling very well) or The Sands of Time.
If you haven't even heard of Deus Ex, then you may aswell give up on life.
Eh....really, no games come to mind, with the exception of maybe tetris. Seriously, there are plenty of games some of you guys are saying "everyone" should play that I just have no interest in, and I know that everyone isn't going to like all of my "must play" games, either. I won't make you play Halo, Half-Life or Warcraft 3, if you don't make me play Chrono anything or Final Fantasy XXIV.
Really, same thing for movies and books, too, and really I think there is no universally liked anything. People have different tastes, and somewhere out there, there are people who prefer the Matrix sequels to the original.
