Worst part about your favorite game?

[Akatosh3]

DA:O - Combat lacks depth, no jump button, some characters talk way too long for no apparent reason and not enough interaction with the environment.

HL2 - Revenholm (Need I say more?)

 

[rockyoumonkeys]

Fallout 3: buggy as shit.

Castlevania: SOTN: the voice acting.

 

[Okuu_Fusion]

Ending on a cliff hanger and waiting possibly 11 years to continue the story only to release it on a handheld... If true...

Also alot of my favorite games are not long enough...

 

[tobi the good boy]

Kotor 2 ~ peragus
Oblivion ~ play doh faces and terrible voice acting
Fallout 3 ~ the decline in quirky fallout nature (in comparison to 1 and 2)

 

[Raziel_Likes_Souls]

MGS3, its Japanese. Which results in many weird scenes.

Okami - the voices , they tend to grate after a while

The fact that the guns in Fallout 3 are so inaccurate that you can actually see the bullet fly in the wrong direction if you look through the scope of the sniper rifle as you fire it.

I really hope they fix this Fallout: New Vegas

Pretty much these.

Also, No More Heroes 2's lack of a conclusion, the fact that the motion capture is crap in Fallout 3, the fact that the new Kingdom Hearts, Okami's 20 minute long intro, Persona 3 Portable and Parasite Eve games are for the fucking PSP that I sold 3 years ago, and the fact Persona isn't a proper anime, not counting Trinity Soul, I mean:
Is this the intro to a psychedelic RPG, or a psychedelic version of Bleach with detectives mixed in?

Also:

Final Fantasy VI.

It's too easy.

Your argument is invalid.

 

[shadyh8er]

Resident Evil 4.

Can't move while aiming, and I love Ashley to death, but her voice is just....ugh.

 

[SimuLord]

Oblivion?

The fact that archers are so piss weak in comparison to the Warrior and Mage type characters.

Having enemies with more sharp objects sticking out of them than a cactus gets real old real fast. A "realistic archery" mod (I use Eagle Eye) is a must.

 

[Treeinthewoods]

I get tired of introdutory tutorials in games that encourage replay like Mass Effect 2 and Fallout 3. I wish after I passed it the first time I would be given an option to skip the intro/tutorial and just pick some answers off a menu (Did you kill the overseer? Yes.) Just let me start at the fun part dude!

 

[eggy32]

Kingdom Hearts 2 - The fact that The Hundred Acre Wood part wasn't as good as in the First Kingdom Hearts.

 

[Beastialman]

Fanboys in Halo, Smogon in Pokemon, and serious business people in Tf2.

 

[Death God]

Devil May Cry 3. The cheesy lines. I so badly wanted to ask Dante if he wanted some wine with that cheesy.

Bahahah The novels actually pointed that out at points. He would say something cliche, then think to himself, "What the hell was that?"

I might have to read those then. The game was corny beyond all reason.

Oh, the first was so much worse, in my opinion. "I Wanted to fill your dark soul with liiight! -cue in emotional cracking voice-" The ending of the first was so horrible too.

But I think that's more of a running thing throughout Devil May Cry, the uber corny scenes. Devil May Cry 4 had its fair share as well. Devil May Cry 2 was a bit too broody to be corny lol.

I hope the new one sure isn't corny...

I'm hoping they don't, but they probably will.

 

[Koroviev]

Mass Effect: I haven't gotten around to playing it just yet, but I'm already dreading the vehicle sections.

The ones on the main quest planets aren't actually that bad, because they were actually designed. It's the random ones that are a pain. Sure, there is tons more of those, but if you just stick to the actual sidequests themselves (ie no mineral/artifact hunting, which only gives credits and small bits of xp anyway) you should be able to minimize the time spent in the misused Mako.

Thanks for the info! :]

 

[JakeOfRavenclaw]

Worst part of HL2: That antlion level, where they swarm you if you touch the sand.

 

[Blubberburg]

Saints Row 2, Once you've finished the game and unlocked all the guns and stuff there are no gang members to kill, only pushover cops who are no fun (they dont even use their armored vehicles, just place them as 'roadblocks' for you to steal) I want to butcher masses of gang members at the end but not allowed, also your gang members start to clutter the streets

Who knows. It's being made by a shitload of people, mostly Ninja Theory. And Heavenly Sword wasn't corny. The story and the graphics and voice acting in all their games are beautiful. So we can at least hope for that. Gameplay isn't bad either in their games.

 

[Iron Lightning]

The Void: Minor graphical glitches and the opening cutscene's slightly pretentious poem. Well, the poem wasn't that bad, but the bongo drum in the background was just a bit much.

 

[l3lazec]

I probably have more fun playing games like Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart, the problem is I play these games way more than my friends so I'm way better than them making it not fun for them + AI isn't challenging enough

 

[Vault101]

ME....the mako, that fucking mako....ether that or comander Shepard really can't drive..

 

[=Paranoid=]

Kotor 2 ~ peragus

I hope you meant Kotor 2 = Everything.

The game was such a poor addition to a great franchise. The amount of bugs that plagued it made the game unplayable for me.

A solution to this might be a bit extreme, but do you really need to play Mario Kart or SSB series that much? They are pretty simple and its usually just pick up and play, that is what makes them so great. If it is getting to the point where its beginning to detract from you and your friends enjoyment because they aren't as good then you could consider putting some of that focus into something else.



As for me i would say HoN/Dota or whatever you would prefer. The general attitude of most players is quite disgusting to be honest and I can not think of any other game where the aggression/arrogance level is higher from a player which is a shame.

*Even i am guilty of this, but i guess it just rubs off on you when your around it for so long*

Oooh, interesting topic.

I'd have to list several games:
Ocarina of Time: I disliked nothing of it. In all seriousness, I can't think of anything too big that pissed me off. Maybe the fact that it took several years of my life to complete?
StarCraft 1 and 2: So. Fast. I really like the game and the series in general, but I get beaten a bit too easy. I'm a glutton for punishment in SC.
Megaman Series: Some of the trickier jumps, and starting fortress levels from the start if you die.
TLoZ games: Hard to make continuity of the story line. Seriously, there is even an article on it in most major Zelda websites.
Majora's Mask: That it felt like you actually had the bruden. It makes for an excellent game, but it's stressful
F.E.A.R. series: The FEAR aspect of the game makes it hard to play without first bracing yourself and later having nightmares.
Civilization: Getting a bad starting place.
Age of Empires: Sometimes, the lack of resources can be annoying
Soul Calibur series: Just hard all around. I'm not good at fighters, but I really like this series.
Tony Hawk: Some of the things in story mode are hard to nail.
Halo: The story is several times overlooked.
I-Ninja: The damned collectibles.... one of the few games I'm proud I finished 100%
KOTOR: The first playthrough is awesome. Then it starts getting tedious.
KOTOR 2: How broken it feels sometimes. You can see that it is an unfinished game.
Gothic 3: Too much freedom. And even then, relative freedom, but the lack of a clear objective and the fact that it is partially broken makes it hard to play.
Metroid: The collectibles

I guess that covers most of it...
