Here we go again. I must add this is a disclaimer of being mostly my opinion (which I back up, I must objectively say). So take it as such.

1.) State of Emergency (PS2, Click for Review)

Read my review for a better understanding. But for those of you too lazy (this one is much shorter than my more recent by the way), the game consists of 100s of random screaming characters running around while you struggle with a consistently poor camera on a nebulous quest to "Smash the Corporation" (which happens to be 57% of the sounds in the game).

Yes, this game SUCKS. I mean it's not even fair to call this game "Poor".

2.) Star Wars : Empire at War (PC, Click for Review)

I hope you readers aren't offended by this following statement. If so, I apologize but this must be said.

This inbred bastard child of Star Wars and Star Craft should have been aborted in the 3rd trimester. It is such a generic POS that if the Star Wars license was removed you'd never give this game the time of day. I was shocked at how utterly generic and completely useless half the units were in this game.

3.) Final Fantasy III (Nintendo DS, Click for Review)

I'm sad to have to ever say this is one of the most overrated games in my opinion. It is an antiquated model of what RPGs used to be and half of the time mindless grinding may not get you anywhere. Read my review as to why many MANY cheap enemies can catch you off guard and end your game before the fight starts. The storyline is very standard and generic (especially the whole switching jobs and each character is almost the exact same in stats). The whole presentation felt... hollow and a grindfest without the character development which came to the forefront of the series in FF4 and beyond.

Aside from FF2 and 1 (although it was the originator), this is the worst one in the series in my opinion.

4.) Gran Turismo Series (PS1, 2, 3 and P, no review).

If realistic physics and driving are indicated by not being able to make a 90 degree turn at anything faster than 20mph in a super sports car... then I don't want to play it. This game is mind numbingly boring, and as a racing game, it seems unfair that CPU controlled cars can smear into you sending you off road, but if you try agressive driving, you get bucked off like a midget on an elephant. CPU cars are glued to the road, but you have to some how slow to a stop to turn even 2 degrees.

This may be mostly my personal opinion speaking about the whole "sim sports" genre, but even beyond that, Gran Turismo just isn't that good and has a lot of problems.

5.) Brain Age (Nintendo DS, Click for Review)

Let me say this...

This is not a game. It's a math simulator based on repetition, not on how smart you are or how well your brain is used. It makes you write numbers and draw lines that are often misinterpreted or just completely ignored all together.

This "game" is horrible and I'm apalled at how many people (including myself) bought it thinking it's going to turn you into Einstein.

We made it through 5 games without me hitting on some big ones like Zelda or Halo for instance. Those games may be overrated I think... but no way near on the order of how Gamespot and the general public percieve these 5 titles.

Comments questions and of course... any threats to bodily harm?
