eh, I should really leave this thread alone, all the sacrilege and ignorance is depressing me 
Lets get this straight, old games cannot be said to suck because of their graphics, you have to judge all games on their merits not their shortcomings.
Also, I think captcha hates me:

Super Mario. Its been done to death and I stopped caring for everything that came with the Gamecube and onwards. Same game, same characters, same bad guys, same plots. Sorry. I'm not following that crowd anymore.
I had a good LOL at your misfortune. God bless refresh, eh?Continuity said:Also, I think captcha hates me:
Mass Effect, Dragon Age: Origins, to start...
Tactical RPGs in general. Mostly because I'm horrendous at them. I'm cautious when I need to be bold, brash when I need to slink around and wait for an opportunity, and when I started to realize that, I went against my instincts and found out that my instincts, for once, were right. It doesn't help that I was playing a game (can't remember which one at the moment) where if a character "died", they were injured and removed from your party for a large chunk of time.
Ugh.
Final Fantasy 8, though that seems to be about balanced in OMG SO GOOD and OHGODTHEPAIN reactions. I just can't sit through it with the stupid magic system it has. You shouldn't have to mainly power up solely through Junctioning. ughhhhhh
WoW.
That's all I can think of at the moment.

It was deliciously horrible, I like the majority of CoD games, but this one just had a broken online system and terrible campaign.

I have a fairly positive opinion of the first game and rather enjoyed the second... while the episodes are a case of diminishing returns.CaptQuakers said:
But I swear every game I play these days there's a moment where I curse the very existence of Half-Life. Take Bulletstorm. This is a big, dumb throw-back to the over-the-top action days of the mid-90s. So why the fuck does Gray slow down while talking to people or listening to comm channels. There's even one moment where he walks into a fight and slows down to make the announcement that there are bad guys directly in front of them. Not hidden behind anything, just standing out in the open.
Fuck you Half-Life, you did this to games. Stop pausing the fun to have characters explain to us the blindingly obvious. And beat every game developer that thinks locking you in a room while NPCs spend two minutes explaining to you that something is going to explode and you need to either stop it from exploding or run very far away. This is why they created comms... to explain to you basic plot beats without getting in the way of core game play.
IMHO:
StarCraft will never be as much fun as Command and Conquer
Half Life is the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" of the video game world.
Battlefield became good once they reduced it to 4 classes
There, I'm glad I got that out but now I'm gonna get my flame shield.

I don't care for the "realistic" FPSs like the Call of Duty series. It think they glorify war and violence in a way that I find distasteful. I don't get the same feeling from more cartoony games like TF2.
I think there's a place for games like these if the material is treated well, I just don't enjoy them.

None of the people in this thread are special flowers.(/jk) Everyone hates/loves different things.
Thread contribution: I did not enjoy Half Life 2, I found the game play to be boring and the story wasn't enough to pull me in. I also had a lot of trouble finding ammo and ended up using the crowbar most of the time.

I've been thinking about this recently too. There's so much violence in the world and it's become a medium within itself for enjoyment. Not to say I'm some hippie, but you'd think by now considering all of our advancements, that our society wouldn't be promoting it to the extent it does.Heraklitus said:

Metal Gear Solid.
I tried it at a friends house fisrt, but i just couldn't wrap my head around it.
I then bough MGS 2 second-hand, since it was supposed to be the best in the series (and i didn't think 10 min of gameplay is enough to judge a game on). But once again, i just didn't get what was so great about it.
Th stealth is terrible (I Play Splinter Cell games. THAT, is stealth gameplay), and since it was a stealth game, any attempts to go guns blazing was suicide. I felt too detached from the character (no early cutscenes for the player to get to know him, plus camera was too far away) and kept comparing it to how inferior it was to Splinter Cell (Which was the kind of gameplay i was expecting).
