Despite the fact that I love both gaming and Japanese culture, I have absolutely no interest in Japanese games. Of the half dozen sitting on my shelf, I've only completed RE5 (much of which I found to be turd).

I really like romance in games. It's a little "flamboyant", I know, but I love a game with a deep romance arc.

Like other posters... I hated the Uncharted series. I have watched/played the first one start to finish and have played and seen bits from 2, but the protoganist is such a douchy cocky narble bag that I couldn't stand the otherwise OK story. Lastly the game play was extremely bland and unoriginal.

As its on your list, liking duke nukem forever, i had a lot of fun just messing around in it.
I would say disliking the overly used fps genre, but that seems kinda common these days.
Is disliking mmorpgs one?

In my mind, with the exception of porting Okami to Wii, Nintendo has done nothing of value in at least 8 or 10 years. Half of their IP's before that time still weren't any good, including Zelda. This is coming from an owner of every Nintendo console since NES (including virtual boy, thank you).

I also believe that online multiplayer is stupid and I don't understand why everyone (including developers) can't just be satisfied with one or two multiplayer games rather than requiring that EVERY new game take time away from its single player campaign to create some maps that you'll be bored with in 2 months and probably complain about anyway.

That is the right way to judge games :)

As for me I think Heroes of might and magic 4 is the best heroes and I've been playing the series since 2. I don't get why people think 3 is the best. Even H5 is better( of course H3 isn't bad, IMO it's just overrated )

I... I go on GameFAQs the second I have a problem with something in a game. Including any puzzles that I don't solve immediately. I'M SO ASHAMED. D:

I've never played a Metal Gear Solid game.

I liked Anders, and agreed with him.

I found Half Life 2 too be boring. The only thing I can remember standing out from that game is Ravenholm. The rest I found shit. Maybe it's cause I played it too late and missed the hype, maybe I'm just oblivious to it's charms, I dunno.

Funny, I liked pretty much everything but Ravenholm.

I don't think AC Brotherhood is the series' high point, but rather AC2. Probably just because I was really disappointed with Brotherhood.

I don't see how these are capital sins, they are just opinions that the majority does not have.
Odds are pretty damn good that you're going to find someone on the internets that doesn't agree with something you say/think.

Buy I guess my "sins" would be:
I enjoy MW2 multiplayer, but I enjoy the campaign more. The campaign in MW2 was better than MW.
I think no RTS-RPG game can top Ogre Battle 64 in every way, and that the Fire Emblem series is the best strategy game series out there.
My order of Halo games: Halo Reach > Halo: Combat Evolved > ODST > Halo 3 > Halo Wars > Halo 2
I think GoW3 multiplayer fucking sucks, and has horrible balancing issues.
Because of how they are designed, every Pokemon sequel is better than the previous one, period.
I still think Nintendo is better than Microsoft and Sony, as far as gaming is concerned.
There are serious games for the Wii, and they are fucking awesome.
Last one: Final Fantasy stopped being good after IX

I think that FFVII is one of the worst games in the series.

FFVIII is one of my two favorite games of all time. (The second being Rogue Galaxy. Which reminds me, I hated the Dark Cloud games with a passion.)

There are only three things I like in FFX (everything else I hated). In no particular order they are Auron, his theme, and blitzball.

I adore the pants off of FFX-2.

I love AC2, Ezio is one of my favorite characters in video games. That being said, I returned Brotherhood to Blockbuster about an hour or so into the game. I bloody hated it.

I think the first Halo is merely sub-par, didn't like 2, and refuse to play any of the other games in the series.

I can't stand God of War or the Prince of Persia games. (Yet I loved the movie)

I don't like MMORPG's with pretty graphics. Something in my mind just won't accept them. I expect my mmo's to be ugly by modern standards.

I didn't find Human Revolution interesting enough to be bothered to finish it.

I returned Dead Island to GameFly about an hour into Act 2. I don't regret it.

I would be perfectly happy if they never made a zombie game, movie, book or whatever ever again. Unless it started with the title Resident Evil, and was an actual survival horror game. (On that note, I think that Resident Evil 4 was an embarrassment and should have the Resident Evil stripped from it's title.)

The most fun I have ever had playing a game online was with 007 Rogue Agent on the XBOX.

I think Deus Ex: Invisible War was a fantastic game.

I claim to hate stealth games, yet can't get enough of Splinter Cell or Hitman.

As a side note, I disagree with Yahtzee, it isn't a jet pack that could make every game better. It is a grappling hook. (Evidence can be found in the new Bionic Commando and in Just Cause 2).

I liked Too Human.

I didn't like minecraft.

I like regenerative health.

I thought Demon's Souls wasn't challenging.

I believe that I should be able to play a multiplayer FPS however I want to extent that the game will permit me and if you don't have a strategy to counter my "cheap and immoral" strategies, that is your problem.

I look down on PC gamers as the lowest form of gaming life
This one has piqued my curiosity. May I ask why?
MMOs and Elitist attitudes...There are far too many reasons for me to detail them all but those 2 are high up on the list. I love being talked down to by people who will pay for a game and then pay to play it aswell...
Look it's that word(Elitist) again!

What exactly makes PC Gamers 'Elitist' in your opinion?

OT: My gaming sin is not liking Consoles!

No it isn't if the game is a sequel which invisible wars was.

As for mine,
I found chrono cross to be much better and deserving of fame than Final fantasy 7.

My main problem with final fantasy 7 was that it was not linear enough. I absolutely loved the whole midgar section but as soon as the game hits disk 2, it loses focus and is all over the place.

I have never in my life completed a bioware RPG.

I really, really hate Uncharted. But I don't see it as a sin. I see it as an opinion and a right one at that. Though of course others will disagree. Opinions, funny old things aren't they?
A right opinion? As though opinions can be distinguished between right and wrong?

Anywho, I have never liked the Final Fantasy series. Just not my tastes, I suppose.
I was being facetious. I made the same point as you in my post.
