Games you Couldn't get into this Gen

FarCry 2 Alpha Protocol & Just Cause 2.

Bioshock, I've played games on pc just like for years now, have re-bought it so many times thinking to give it another go, even have bioshock 2 infront of me, but just cant seem to play it for more than a few days, then shelve it. I've been there, done that ages ago.

F.E.A.R. I don't understand the hype ofslowmo and dark boringhallways.

Super Mario Galaxy, Infamous, Condemned 2, Mirrors Edge

Sins of a Solar Empire. It's the first time I tried an RTS. I just found it too slow and cumbersome to get into. I might play around with it a bit again once I get my replacement graphics card, and I might give Starcraft 2 a try. It has a campaign, so maybe that would give me more incentive to keep at it. The other one was Streetfighter IV.

I couldn't get into Assassin's Creed. I heard the second one was much better. Ill have to eventually check that game out.

Just about any shooter because they all feel the same. Games like Call of Duty, Mass Effect, Resistance and Halo. You play one shooter, you've played them all. The coverbased combat and the run and gun stuff has gotten really old, it all feels so repetitive and I fall asleep playing those games.

Demon Souls- Redundent, bland non-sense

Any Metal Gear game.

MAG

Borderlands. Granted, I tried playing the entire game alone and gave up after ten minutes. Tried it again, gave up after fifteen minutes. I'll have to try it with a friend sometime.

I never liked playing it online. Secret Armory made it worth partying to get teal drops from bosses, but only barely. I always prefered solo play.

Fallout 3. The first part of the game starts off with a bunch of bull**** and it continues to be bull**** throughout the game. Plus, everything looks like mud. It's not like "Oh, post-apocolyptic earth is supposed to be drab". Just because a color scheme is drab doesn't mean it has too look like mud as well.

Red Dead Redemption. It was a decently fun game, but I simply didn't enjoy it to the magnitude of reviewers or others on this site. There really wasn't much to do or mess around with (understandably so though, considering its the wild west), and even with the aiming on expert the game was a cakewalk. I like my games challenging and RDR was far, far too easy. I died maybe5 times throughout its course. GTAIV was simply much better in my opinion. RDR's online is fun to mess around in though.

- Assassins Creed

- Demon Souls

- Two Worlds

- Modern Warfare2

Surprised to see people put Dragon Age, that game was an amazing rpg (though I do think it was a little to hard for some people), though I only played the PC versinoa dn have not tried hte consoles ones.

GTA IV. A lot of things nice about the game, but the gameplay prevents me from getting anywhere in it. Probably the single worst controls I've ever experienced from a popular game.

Every JRPG.

For me, it's Dragon Age. I just CAN'T get into it. So many stats to level up, awkward controls and confusing menus, ugh. Coming from someone who found it easy to get into Fallout 3. In DAO I just finished the Warrior origin story, now I have to do some quest with 3 other people from what I remember... I've had it for over 8 months and I just can't get into it.

Sounds like RPGs aren't really your thing :P Well atleast ones with nonFPS combat.

Fable 2 - Way too easy, felt like an RPG for 5-7 year olds.

Halo 3 - Plastic action toys fight lame aliens.

Crysis - Lame A.I. and story

GTAIV - Too scripted

MW1+2, too pro-american for my liking.dvalo9

because apparently, you get moderated for spoiling old games. [spoiler] in mw all the americans died and in mw2, the american was the bad guy. [/spoiler] how is that pro american?

also my answer is bioshock. god how hard it was for me to push myself to finish it.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. I thought the gunplay was boring and tiresome, and the platforming felt awkward. I couldn't get very far into the game.

• Halo 3 - Loved the first one. However, the sequels just don't pull me in, especially the multiplayer.
• Forza 3 - I'm not a fan of racing sims anymore. It's the same with the GT franchise. I prefer arcade/kart racers.
• Call of Duty: WAW and MW2 - They got old fast. Plus lately I have been playing fps on the PC and the versions I played were 360/PS3.
• Madden - This gen Madden hasn't been as fun as the ones in the past. i haven't played the recent one yet but do I really want to?

Killzone 2 - Felt as if I couldn't see anything in the game plus I hated how it controlled. Was not for me, though I do want to try it again.

GTAIV - Constantly driving to each mission and some of the other quirks of the game annoyed me. I never got too far into it, though I enjoy Red Dead Redemption a bit.

Demon's Souls - I haven't entirely given up on this game yet but I'm having trouble truly appreciating it.

Modern Warfare 2 - I played through the first one and had fun with it. I tried playing through MW2 and even though it was a short game I just couldn't get through it. I just didn't care.

Star ocean, it felt like a serious downgrade in battle system and the plot/characters were more cliche then usual

It's a shame since till the end of time was so great

Dragon Age. If I want to play an RPG with an MMO setup, I'd go play an MMO. The story was alright I guess, but it can't hold up the poor gameplay. Top it off with some of the worst armor/weapon models since Oblivion, I couldn't get too far into it. The only reason I played it for as long as I did, was because Shale is a beast of a tank, and had some funny dialoge through the story.

I would also say Dragon Age. The combat was an instant turn-off for me, and I gave up after about 20 minutes. Strangely enough, I played KOTOR for the first time afterwards and found that to be a blast despite its similar combat system.

Every zombie game released this gen. For some reason i cant stand them. It is one genre i could do with out.
