In This Topic - Post some unpopular gaming opinions and be proud of them...

1) Mirror's Edge was freaking fantastic. Running on open-rooftops was one of the most exhilarating gameplay experiences I've ever had. And I didn't find it frustrating/hard at all.

2) Crysis ISN'T some kind of Graphical God. Yes, it is the best looking game ever made, but not by THAT MUCH. I do think there are games on consoles that kind of come close. I think the gameplay is fantastic, though.

3) Super Mario Galaxy wasn't very good. It was way too easy, and immediatly after "beating" the game for the first fake ending, the game immediately loses all sense of focus and it becomes impossible for me to care enough to play anymore.

4) Grand Theft Auto IV didn't kill the series, and it also didn't rebirth it. It just kinda went along and did its thing. It didn't suck, but it wasn't fantastic. It was just kinda good.

5) Spore was REALLY GOOD. It was casual. But it was fun. I can just sit down and play it for 20 minutes and feel like I got something out of it, put it away for a week, and then get back to it and not be lost.

I agree with 1) and 2)

Another one for me:

- I find games to be easily long enough these days

1. Golden Sun/Lost Age are the best games ever.

2. Dead Space and Mirrors Edge are the only games this gen that I've truly enjoyed and actually finished this gen that didn't left a bad taste in my mouth, they even left me begging for more.

3, Sunshine > Galaxy > Mario 64. Never found out why people liked Mario 64, maybe it's because I played Ocarina of Time first at that time and everything else felt pretty sub-standard.

4. ^^ Again, just like Ocarina of time, the first truly "current gen" game I've played this gen was Crysis and every other FPS feels pretty sub-standard, in every department not only graphics.

5. Crystal Chronicles for the GCN is better than ANY other Final Fantasy game, including numbered flagship titles, in the gameplay department. Hell it's one of the best co-op games I've ever played.

6. The Tales of... series are better than Final Fantasy games, better story, better gameplay, etc.

7. Smash Bros series > SF > Soul Calibur > every other fighter.

8. PC = PS3 = 360 = Wii, face it you need them all.

9. Despite having the highest number of quality titles this gen, the DS isn't what people make it out to be.

10. GTA games are incredibly boring and should not even score half of what they get.

11. The graphics leap from last gen to this gen wasn't as big as previous generations.

Current gen Sonic games (excluding 06) are fun

FFIX >FF7

Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog are fun.

• Twilight Princess is the best Zelda game ever and easily one of the best games of all time
• I wouldn't care if the whole FPS genre dissapeared
• TheHarvest Moon series is second best only to Zelda
• Panzer Dragoon Orta was the best game on Xbox
• Persona 3 is the best RPG this generation
• I got bored and stopped playing Fallout, Planescape Torment and Final Fantasy VII within a handful of hoursof startingthem

My all time favorite: SR2 is much better than GTA IV

MGS4 was less enjoyable than Too Human. *runs away*

The King of Fighters and Tekken are the best fighting series there are.

Warhawk is one of the best online games there are.

The new casual market Nintendo found is potentially great for the industry.

EDIT: Capcom is becoming "evil".

-Online multiplayer is redundant and stale

-Shooters are not a hardcore genre

-HD is over-rated

-Blu Ray held PS3 back and hurt the system more than it helped

-Reviews are almost worthless and do not determine quality

Halo is the most overrated series in existence

read my blog

Twilight Princess and GTA are boring, overrated games.

I couldn't bring myself to finish Twilight Princess.
Grand Theft Auto bores me.
I think Crysis is only good for it's graphics.
FPS genre is overrated.
RPG is the best genre.

Im going to save this thread for future refrence some of the opinions here are terrible to be honest im surprised most of you call yourself computer game fans.

Here's my unpopu;ar opinion most of you dont know what a good game is until someone else tells you.

I think 3d Zelda games are bland and boring.pyromaniac223

Resident Evil 4 & 5 are better games than the originals

MGS4's ending was awful

San Andreas is the worst 3D GTA

The Darkness is the best story-driven FPS this gen

Siren: Blood Curse is the best horror title this gen

Mirror's Egde and Alone In The Dark were both excellent

2D Sonic > 2D Mario (except Yoshi's Island)

That's it for now, though I'm sure I could think of more.

Oh, David Hayter is NOT a good voice actor.pyromaniac223

I don't know what other work he has done, but based on his work as Snake I have to agree. He has one of the most annoying voices ever. And that brings me to my first opinion:

- MGS3 is a terrible game and it killed my interest in the series completely. Granted, I haven't played the other MGS games, but unless they are radically different from MGS3 in every single way, I'll pass on them.

- Marcus Fenix and his pals in Gears of War aren't badass.

- Cover systems are unnecessary and often make games worse.

- The whole RPG genre needs to be taken back to the drawing board. It's not fun to level up a character only to find out at the max level that I have spent my skill points wrong so I have to start over again. It's also not fun doing the same quests over and over, killing the same monsters over and over etc. to get enough gold and experience. Yet almost every freaking RPG has these problems.

- The 360 version of Red Alert 3 has great controls and I like it better than the PC version.

Far Cry 2 >>>>>>>>>> KillZone 2

Valve are good, but not as good as people seem to make them out to be.

Shadow of the collosus - once you get past the pretensious 'artsy fartsy' side of everything, it's a pretty boring game.

The first two Fallout games probably sucked, I never played them, but the fact that they are Isometric and similar in gameplay to Baldur's Gate gives me no doubt in my mind that they we're terrible.

PSP > DS. The DS has a few standout games that did something cool and interesting, besides that it is mostly just shovelware.

PSN used to be pretty bad, but it's come a long way. Compare it to Xbox Live now, and it's more than clear that Xbox Live is a rip off and a scam.

The Sims can be just as hardcore as FPS #3742. You try creating a family that have spanned several generations, have the most expensive house in the neighbourhood,. the most expensive furnishings, all of the career items, had several family members who have the top job in a career etc.

A large portion of Halo haters only hate it because it's popular, and they can't think of any other way to be cool and 'original'.

If you play on the harder difficulties of Dynasty Warriors, there is more to it than just button mashing.

EDIT: I thought of some more :D

Fable 2 is terrible

Tekken > Super Smash Brothers > SF, KOF, DOA, SC, GG and every other fight series other than...

Virtua Fighter, which is only for people who know how to play fighting games, a demographic which I do not fit into.

Halo is the greatest FPS series ever, GTA4 was disappointing, Fable 2 is underrated, XBL isn't better than PSN, PSP>DS, The PS3 will eventually be equal to or better than the PS2, Tekken is the best fighter series and the first Xbox was very underrated.

Ocarina of Time is not the best game ever made (it's my least favorite 3D Zelda).

Goldeneye is terrible.

From a roleplaying perspective, BioWare has been on a steady decline since Shadows of Amn.

StarCraft is not the best RTS ever made.

Videogames are, as a whole, better than they've ever been.

Metal Gear Solid is poorly written.

Most of the programmers, writers and Q&A people at Bethesda should be thrown into a fire.

Call of Duty (original on PC) is the best in the series.

The SP campaign for Killzone on the PS2 isbetter than the SP campaign for Call of Duty 4. (Seriously. I thought CoD4's campaign was completely underwhelming)

Every single Resident Evil game is complete and utter garbage, except for numbers 4 and 5 which are some of the greatest games of all time.

Half-Life 2 is the most overrated game of all time, followed closely by Super Metroid and Halo: Combat Evolved.

Morrowind and Oblivion are BOTH absolutely incredible. (Most people seem to love one and hate the other)

Beyond Good and Evil isn't that great a game, and definitely doesn't deserve to be called a 'lost classic'.

The Tekken series is better than any other fighting series.

Killer 7 has a better ending than MGS3, SotC and Final Fantasy 8 put together.

halo is trash.
