For me it's time limits on final levels. This almost ruins the game for me because all it does is make the last level frustrating, not challenging. Examples: Donkey Kong 64 and Metroid Prime 3.

Couldnt agree more.. I despise time limits and also not so fond of swimming portions on platformers or shooters...

Mass Effect 2 (most expected game)

Borderlands

Mafia 2

Final Fantasy XIII

Dragon Age

Fable 3

Fallout New Vegas

God of War 3

Starcraft 2

Halo 3: ODST

Plok, dont know If anyone remember this one a Snes platformer with impressive visuals for the time.. Loved it to death..

Mario Tennis for the Virtual Boy, I loved it and it doesnt get more unpopular than that ! lol

This gen I've always been a big supporter of Too Human, great action rpg with too many control quirks and too much hype to appeal to most people...

I stopped playing Halo 3 'cause the little kids got so annoying sometimes it wasnt even funny anymore, so when all the hypepassed I decided to never go back to the online component.. Had a pretty good romp though...

Other really bad experience was with Counterstrike, I'd never played the game until 4 or 5 months back because one of my cousins is severely addicted to it and convinced me, well the game was not so bad but the hackers... damn there's nothing I could hate more that cheating on online play, it kills all the frickin' purpose of playing against other humans instead of just beating A-I bots over and over..

Not a fan of Obsidian. Kotor II was nowhere as good as Kotor, and Alpha Protocol looks meh.IronBass

Agree. The first Kotor is easily one of my favorite games all time but the second one was pretty average, it was the same game with some new textures (not that many though) ... If things remain the same then I expect New Vegas to be pretty similar to Fallout 3... which isnt bad by any means, so im looking forward to it even if with a little skepticism..

I found my 360 to be way noisier than my ps3 even though that the difference has decreased significantly since my console got changed cause of RRoD. The ps3 does get noisy some times, but it seems to only happen when playing the console without the A/C on..

Handheld would be PSP for sure, I actually sold my DS when I got the psp 'cause I simply stopped playing it.. I was gonna buy another DS for chinatown wars but with it coming out on the PSP that's not gonna be necessary. In the console department I probably would chose the 360 because I got a lot more games but in the scenario the TC proposed I would go with a PS3 for the connectivity and interaction between the two..

killing the Adoring Fan on oblivion over and over is always good fun!

Well that kinda depends.. If its is just me, like an individual programmer who makes kick a... games then I choose number 2. But If Im the CEO of a company that has the necessity of not only supporting me but also all my working force and their families I would had to choose number 1, gaming is a business and In an economy like the one where're living through right now having the chance of making top money and selling out almost all your product line becoming a solid enterprise...well there's not much choice there for me..

0Obviously not, there's a lot of movie tie ins and shovelware or "casual games" that sell a lot and arepretty much c r a p ...
