WoW. it takes people i would normally hang out wiht into the basement for hours on end. it draws attention away from overlooked games. it's a waste of time and money better spent playing other games or living like a normal human being.r

Red Alert 3.. and all C&C games that EAhave done..

The perception of the Red Alert universe is one of a cartoony playground where they make up units for "fun". Doesn't anyone remember the original RA had a more dark and serious tone? The latest in the series just goes to show how downhill the C&C games have gone. Not impressed at all..

*goes back to playing the original RA*

Fallout 3. Really boring gameplay and story. This is Fallout 3's gameplay: 1) See enemy. 2) Press V to kill it. 3) Did it die? If yes, go to 1. If no, go to 4. 4) Put more points in "killing stuff ability." then go to 1.

WoW, I don't really hate the game, but I'd rather play a sandbox MMO.

Final Fantasy 12

The game got rave reviews from Xplay (5/5), but I played halfway through and quit. You can have all the best story in the world, but if you're going to make a crappy puppet system, and a horrible non-linear leveling grind... then you shoulda just made it into a movie.

Edit: Oops, not a PC game (at least i don't think it made it on to PC). Oh well, my opinion still stands lol

[QUOTE="CellAnimation"]I don't "hate" it but Far Cry 2 isn't worthy of the Far Cry name. ;)Hellboard

^ this. HUGE disappointment after years of waiting.

didnt really like STALKER either.

i agree but i like the fact that they made a fps view gta style clone.. that actually HAS a big map and many sidequests and its not as limited as stalker... THAT was a huge disappointment...not far cry 2.. far cry 2 wasnt in development for 5 years, but stalker.....

ha ha! you wont hear a bad word said about far cry 2 will you mate :)

Same here, except I don't have a basement. My brother does nothing, and I mean nothing, all day except play WoW. (Well, he does occasionally play the Xbox 360 and Fallout once in a while)

WoW,I see my friends playing it all the time at his house, and it's just so lame. He does the SAME things over n over again and I get sooo bored watching. I don't see how anyone could spend $15/month for that borefest.adv_tr00per
sums up my feelings on WoW. I just don't see why people like it do much.

far cry 2 would have been far better had it not been for the still unfixed bug that ends the game at 88% for me where I go to find rueben and he isn't there!

What else would you expect from ubisoft anyway?

Dumbed down Daggerfall? Don't make blatant statements like that, as Morrowind is way better than Daggerfall......unless you like miles and miles of randomly generated crap and the most bugs you'll ever see.lettuceman44

They cut off half of the skills! Well not half, but some.. Also Daggerfall was way more impressive in 1996 than Morrowind in 2002, just the sheer scale of it. But hey, I love them both. Morrowind is still one of my favorite games of all time. Now Oblivion on the other hand...

Popular games that I hate? List too long... but here's a few: 95% of all RPG games: Fantasy... I can't imagine an even worse setting for a game. I see nothing interesting about fantasy settings Wow: Same as above, except with the extra bonus that you have to pay a monthly fee to play a game with the most boring setting the world has ever seen Bioshock: Everything in this game is pretty much the opposite of what I want to see in an FPS game: Boring enemies, boring linear areas, small areas, extremely boring guns and magic... oh, and even at a high difficulty setting it was easy as hell. I never finished the game and that game is never coming close to my computer again

Is it bad that i am one of those few people who rate it high? the point is to like the game and i do, but quite honestly i like everything in it apart from the enemy respawn that iv seen in may other games... only stalker does it better...

ask me i get some levels here and there and after that i realized that a game got a huge map and requires to experience too much to survive... so i open the journal and looked what i did every day to find my quests and read the nps directions on how to get there..as more as i like to focus on sidequests than the main story... the story mode on that game was......like a mod, not even npcs have sounds when they talk.. but again Gothic 3 has no main story quest.. cant find what to do i ditch that crap... play that game and then tell me about far cry 2 being borring..

The Witcher-Even the Enhanced Edition Voice acting feels bad, and talking to NPC's is a real pain. After you ask a question it just kicks you out and you have to go and talk to them again...I also found combat to be pretty boring too, I can see where they were going, but it just feels like something you would do in an arcade game. Half Life Series-I don't hate it, just haven't been attracted to it. I don't ever plan on playing a Half Life in the future either.

It's funny, I agree vanilla Oblivion is one of the most over rated games ever, yet because of all the mods installed I've put in more enjoyable game time in Oblivion then any other game I own so i really can't put it on a list like this. But for me FarCry 2 and the CoD series. Far Cry 2 is so horribly boring after a few hours and for such an huge open world it feels incredibly linear, was so looking forward to that game but was a definate let down. Call of Duty, great game if I just feel like gunning people down without using a ounce of brainpower. Small, linear mindless corridor shooting at every turn. Campaigns are just as bad and represent nothing about how WW2 and the wars in the middle east are fought. Alot of people seem to like it, but after playing games like Operation Flashpoint and Red Orcestra it just felt do, dull.

Counter Strike - the most repetitive game ever made, headshot, terrorists win, headshot, counter terrorists win, headshot, headshot, headshot

/QUOTE] I like counter-strike but i agree, it is repetitive but to be honest most online shooters are to some degree and Counter-strike just does the generic repetitiveness the best also simply the number of maps and servers makes it so easy to get into a game

i hate how in world of warcraft, if you play casually and you wanna play w/your friends......they will pass you up so fast. its like they are addicted. plus the gameplay is so repettitive. wich is why i switch characters often. but if i do that than i get behind my friends. idk, i just think its really repettitive like guild wars. but at least guild wars is (in my opinion) more fast paced.

rainbow six vegas was crap, heard it was good, but it wasn't tactical, and action based it was generic, graphics were overbloom vomit inducing, Audio quality was substandard, story was weak, ending was terrible, terrible checkpoint system, poor AI. Just overall a very very overrated game.nutcrackr

Not really. Oblivion is boring as hell and Morrowind keeps me interested for a long time. You know why? The whole world of Oblivion consits of generic medieval forest. Morrowind at least has some variety in it's environments, everything is more detailed and every area has it's own style.

Your friend or someone must have told you that a game is great and you go and get it. You didn't find anything much interesting about it.

Why didn't you like it. From your point of view "What is the weak feature about the game".

Discuss about all the POPULAR games in the market and their 'CONS' here

jorjdboss
Rule of thumb. Everyone have their preference on anything. 1000 people might like game X but 1000 more might hate it. GTA IV got a perfect score by Gamespot, that doesnt mean everyone single person who will play it will end up liking it. I think the only popular game I didnt really care for was Doom 3.

I'll only stick to genres that I generally like

Bioshock: wasn't scary and it didn't have good gunplay. The story didn't interest me at all.

Fallout 3: I like WRPGs especially open world ones like the Elder Scrolls Series but where these games had swords Fallour has guns and this game has some of the worst gunplay ever. I know that the game isn't a shooter but Doom plays better. I jumped right into the main quest and the game became one big scrounge for ammo. I then put the game on easy where I still had little ammo but now I gained so little experience that I couldn't get skills such as lock picking and hacking up high enough to open many chests and get into computers.

Farcry 2: Oniscient AI that halted the process of the game to a crawl. The story and characters are pretty bad 2.

try telling that to someone who will actually play the main quest and not screw around in an mmo or gothic 3
