Games you like that people DESPISE

Star Trek (2013): Though I'd loathe to recommend it to anyone, this game wasn't the worst thing I ever played. Frankly, I enjoyed it more than the last two movies. Its broken, certainly - but not unplayable - and the banter between Kirk and Spock is pretty great. If there is one major flaw with it, is that it suffers from "sameness" (same three minigames to crack a computer, same types of weapons, generic level design, etc).

Duke Nukem Forever - This is all in all a very solid if not-so-special shooter. It works. Theres some stupid fun to be had. Its most offensive thing is that its so goddamned short (any game that takes this long to come out should have 50+ hours of game play. Seriously.)

Shadows Of The Empire - I really like this game, despite the fact that the camera has massive goddamned issues. If it wasn't for that, I'd say this game was a lot more fun than it has any right to. Alas, it has a following of people who dislike it once you beat the snowspeeder stage. :\

Wing Commander Armada - Sort of a b-title for the series and something of a bridge between WC2 and 3 (it uses the earliest version of WC3's in-game graphics engine). Its basically a run-the-gauntlet type game along with a very shallow, but addictive "strategy" campaign where you take over planets, mine them for materials, build bases and fighters and fight your way to the other team's base. There was even multiplayer! Which would be a thing you'd totally use an exclamation point for in a 1994 dial-up world.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh, heres one that just occurred to me. Superman Returns.

I bought the game used for maybe $15 (it was one of my first Xbox 360 games) and though it has big issues, I really enjoyed the whole flying around bit and the random battles. Even the time trials - something I hate in every game - weren't half bad.

Funny thing is - after beating it, I put the game away for a couple of years. When I fired it up last winter, the game was awful. Strange how tastes change so much. Can't fathom how I have a 1000/1000 gamer score on it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I've found a lot of people disliked Front Mission 3.

Fuck those people. That game was harder than a metaphor at a simile convention.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
