[General Discussion] Games that are supposed to be really good but you hate

Quote:

I dislike the Nintendo styled games and most Nintendo licenced games, there may be exceptions but I don't feel like going through a bunch of games that I don't like just to find a handfull of good games, if there's any good games to be found.

Besides if you haven't noticed this is a thread to rant against games that everyone considers good, but apparently the Nintendo nuttys simply can't stand anyone bad mouthing their holy company, so no Nintendo evangelists here please, thanks, bye.

But you didn't mention any games. You just "I hate all Nintendo games but some" and walked away. You haven't really contributed here. That's where our quandry comes in!

I have to add my vote in for Halo. I used to dig it, even though I sucked, but when I got into PC FPS's, Halo just feels all wrong. The controls are awkward, the physics are WEIRD (I jump so high and so long!), and the visuals get old (as in any game, I suppose)

And Halo 2 is a joke to play because I'm so bad at it; therefore, I can't say much more than the little experience I have has been unenjoyable

I don't think I can genuinely say I HATE many games, but there are some I find a bit overrated...

Final Fantasy 5- One would think this game was the holy grail of the holy trinity of 4,5, and 6 on the SNES. It was definitely good, but everything pretty much felt like a step back from 4 to me once I finally played it. Don't get me wrong, though...I did play the shit out of 5 (mastering all jobs with everybody takes some time), but I was kinda surprised after playing it that it came after 4. I suppose it was the aesthetics that pulled me the most; the music and visuals and story weren't as good.

Grand Theft Auto 3 and beyond- Aside from the half hour sessions of mayhem (in which I follow a cycle, 1) Steal a vehicle (preferably a motorcycle if available), 2) Drive around 3) Crash it in as funny a manner as possible, usually taking massive damage, repeat ad nauseum until I actually start getting dizzy from the blurriness...), I can't extract too much enjoyment from this!

Jam it back in, in the dark.
