Online anything. I enjoy online multiplayer games, that's what I've found myself playing more of lately, but with the internet we now have to use pass codes for games, some games aren't even complete because you "have to buy dlc" to access other portions, and that dlc is distributed throught the internet. Basically gaming has gone down hill with the inclusion of the internet.
Everyone complaining but taking it anyway. "Oh I'm so sick of Call of Duty, but I'm going to buy it anyway cuz thats all my friends play". "Oh, I hate dlc prices but I'm going to buy it anyway. Theres just nothing I can do about it". Or people using this "casual" "hardcore" bs. Even more so when they call games that are actual clearly targeted to the traditional gamer, casual, such as Halo or Grand Theft Auto.

I'm boycotting everything I'm against. Casuals and hardcores are real but most people get them mixed up. The difference is how you take the game seriously. Most of us are casual, we play for fun. Hardcores are people who play the game as much as a full time job to memorize the ins and out of it as if it was some sort of viable skill, and then go off to gaming tournaments to win money by playing their games professionally. Neither title should be and insult, it just different types of gamers.
Is King Diamond even around still? I haven't listen to him in ages. I had to look at your sig twice. At first I thought King Diamond, then I looked and was like no, but looks sorta like it. Then I saw you avatar and was hell no, it is.
One thing I can't stand is constant padding. A lot of open world games do this. The developers are so concerned about how little content there is in their games that they throw in all these banal tasks to extend the life of the game. Just look at something like Assassins Creed 1. If you took the investigations out of that and the ridiculously twitchy AI you'd have a very short game. Mafia 2. If you had a fast travel mode in that and didn't have to do stupid things like clean urinals and go home after a mission that game would last barely 5 hrs.
I don't mind COD as a franchise but its frustrating that developers think that their game won't sell unless it looks like COD. I mean you even had the same regenerative health in the recent Harry Potter game.
