[General Discussion] Titles you just don't get why other people can't get into

Advent Rising is the first thing that comes to mind. Of course, I already know half of the answer for why people don't like it, because it got bad press.

The truth is that playing the PC version you don't encounter as many bugs as you would on Xbox, and the few you do are easily overlooked. It's extremely fun for fans of action or shooter games, and plays in some ways similar to P.N. 03. The powers and the combat are by far the best things about the game, and being able to level up weapon skills and powers is what gives it some great replay value.

If the game offered a few more boss battles, or maybe events that offered multiple ways of resolving the situation, then I think this game would have sold a lot more. The fairly linear gameplay it offers as-is still plays great, though.

Ratchet & Clank is a series none of my friends want to try, for fairly obvious reasons of OMG KIDDY, but if they actually took the time to play, I'm sure they'd enjoy it.

A friend of mine absolutely refuses to play anything that even closely resembles Diablo. He likes WoW, but for some reason hack and slash games have never appealed to him, and I can't even get him to try creating a character. *shrug*

Jam it back in, in the dark.
