Okay. I am now unnerved.

On-topic: The Madden series of games have proven that a game can truly be made for anyone. Even those who have more money than sense, who have more time than a room full of alarm clocks, and who possibly possess an inoperable brain injury.

FF13: I liked Snow for the fact that he WASN'T a moody, brooding asshole. Though, Lightning and Hope filled the quota out nicely for the entirety of the time I spent playing & watching.

Fallout 3: For a buggy, mediocre shooter, it did have a great theme in the 1950s World of Tomorrow. Oh, and the one town with the two nutjobs acting like super-heros and villains.
If nothing else, F3 made me better appreciate the intricacies and effort that went into Bioshock.

Final Fantasy VIII had pretty cutscenes for its time, and also the section toward the end before the final boss fight was pretty cool, everything else... not so much.

Final Fantasy XIII actually had a couple of lead characters (Sazh and Snow) that were not trying to come across as either A) Byronic or B) bat shit insane to the point of annoyance... so I didn't want to watch them die repeatedly in a horrible manner (like I did with the rest of them). Also, it was VERY pretty.

May sound like I hate Final Fantasy, but I actually really like a lot of them.

I know im gonna get a lot of hate for this but
I tried really really really hard to get into Legend of zelda , I played the original, ocarina of time, twlight princess, majoras mask , and skyward sword , I just can't get into it , and i don't know why ocarina is labeled the best game of all time by a lot of people anyways

I like the puzzle logic and the world itself , it just gets to repetitive for me ...

Two Worlds....

Ugh...um, I really don't know what to say about this game.

I know, it had retarded horses and dual wielding. That's all folks.

Oh come on... I made this thread not too long ago...

You and lots of people. Few things are ever original here..and each of these threads lack genuine hate and genuine praise.

The closest thing a sane gamer can come to hating a game, instead of mere apathy, is having a game that ruins(takes in a different direction) a series he or she previously liked.

Praise a game which ruined your favourite game series: "it has nice graphics/sound/music, wasted on such a turd".

Dead space has a very good creepy (definitely not frightening) environment that isn't brown ALL the time.

Wet was a good mixture of Hong Kong action cinema tropes. It had heroic bloodshed moments mixed in with wire fu and sword fu style action. The problem is that it did not really work at all.

Lords of Shadow: pure crap?! I'm sure you can find for this game too some positive aspects, because it surely had many. Anyway.

My pick will be Final Fantasy 13. I hate it with passion, but it has Lightning in it, which is a very cool character, perhaps one of my most favourite FF characters. It's an irony that Lightning had to be in this game.

League of Legends is free to play.

Other than that, i can't comment. I haven't actually played the game. I've just heard that the community is akin to a pack of ravenous bloodhounds. Given the nature of competitive communities, i'd wager this to be near enough to the truth that i wouldn't touch it with a six foot barge pole.
