Awesome games that got boring fast

The main game that comes to mind for me is Red Dead Redemption The single player was great but getting 100% completion was way too easy and after that there isnt anything to do. The multiplayer was fun at first but once you realize that there isnt much to do besides gang hideouts and a bad deathmatch mode, it gets really boring. I know alot of people will disagree with me but I think GTA 4 is a much better game than RDR. I still play GTA 4 (I have 100% completion, man killing those pidgeons was a **** and I got it the day it came out. I sold RDR a while ago. GTA 4>>>>>>RDR

And here comes the GTA hate...ugh.Lto_thaG

Sadly, Halo Reach and Uncharted 2.

Just Cause 2. Great game but just couldn't finish it.

Same can be said for most sand box games i guess.

Uncharted 2.

I disagree with this, I've played the single player at least 4 times.

I would say Just Cause 2. The graphics were crazy even on medium on my PC and it was fun at first grappling on to stuff, but that quickly got boring after I grappled the 100th person and drag him/her down the street.

RDR died out fast for me. It was incredible at first, but after the completing the SP the game is just boring to play and the online while fun in short bursts, does not have much staying power. Also, I'd say Mass Effect 2. After completing it once I was pretty much over it whereas the original had me hooked like an MMO.

Easily RDR, it was great at first, but i struggle to finish the SP, it got old pretty quick.

Red Dead Redemption did get extremely boring after getting to 100%. I really didn't want to do the gang hideouts anymore since I had done them each dozens of times in order to get to level 50. The death match wasn't very fun because auto aim is really lame

Shadow Complex. It's fine until you beat the game for the first time, but leveling past maybe lvl 25 gets really really tedious. Which is why I'm never getting all the achievements in that game despite loving it.Cherokee_Jack

COD comes to mind. They are always fun for about a week, then the novelty value wears off.

GTA 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GTA SAN ANDREAS

RED DEAD REDEMPTION

------------these three games were just faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrr too redundant. It's cool if you like them and they aren't even terribly made, but this whole "sandbox" genre needs a breath of fresh air. Seriously.

Not that the games are awesome, but 99% of the games **cough**, I mean apps:roll: in the apple app store are boring after about a minute and a half.

Chromehounds.

The game's customization and combat were ridiculously fun.

For about 10 seconds, and then all of it's tedious technical flaws and balance issues messed it up.

I dont know any awsome games that get boring fast because that means they arent awsome.

So ill just list games that are popular that get boring fast:

Assasins Creed

GTA4

Red Dead Redemption

Cod Franchise...only because they have been same since the original

And here comes the GTA hate...ugh.Lto_thaG

I wouldnt give gta4 the status of awesome to begin with but thats just me. I can agree with RDR though. Also killzone 2 and assassins creed 2.

RDR

Reach

Halo Reach campaign got boring to me after the 4th mission. I'll finish it eventually.

Sadly, Halo Reach and Uncharted 2.

Funny you mention some of the best games from sony and MS, but you didnt mention Metroid other M, which is not even in the same league as those games. I remember you from the other m threads, I am starting to think you are just a wii defender.

Infamous... it took me over a year to beat that game...

I'd say that RDR, GTAIV and AC2 got old pretty fast. They were great games and initially I really enjoyed playing them, but I didn't finish them and when I go back to them, there isn't much to keep me playing. I didn't seem to have this problem AT ALL last gen, for some reason.

What I need is a bloody Hitman game already! I've played Blood Money so many times - that never seems to get old.

Easily Uncharted 2. Loads of fun the first time, mild entertainment the second time through. Online was fun for a week or two.

GTA 4 has excellent online too btw:) free-roam just never gets boring.

Never played ballad, but I got my hands on..whats the other one? Bikers, ect.. Well that one was a nice change of pace for a while. Too bad online gta for ps3 is like totally dead. I got to play maybe a few games before it became more trouble than it was worth looking for a game lol.

NVIDIATI

I'd like to add this to my list. Very spot on for me.

Most of the blockbuster games this gen.

Ratchet and Clank got boring after about 2 hrs of playing. Flow got boring after an hour of playing. Echochrome just got frustrating. I just got tired of thinking and had to turn it off. Started playing God of War Collection instead.

Probably the first assasins creed , the game looked amazing and played well but then the mission structure made it a bit repetative. I still beat the game and enjoyed it but it did get a bit repetative.
