University has meant that I haven't b een able to play games as much as possible during the semester. Thats why my girlfriend and I are making the most of out 3.5 month Uni break! SHe plays Animal Crossing while I play Fallout 3! FREAKIN' Awesome!!
Here's some things I think should be eliminated from games altogether. Any time these things come up, I usually end up turning off a game and never playing it again.
1. Infinitely respawning enemies: For god's sake when I clear an area let me be done with it! I end up feeling like all that hard work was for nothing!
2. Time limit on finishing the game: When I started playing Dead Rising and then saw that I had a time limit in which to finish the game, I turned it off and never played it again.
3. Fetch quests: I'm not a dog. Don't send me around to hunt for and fetch things when they serve no purpose other than artificially lengthening the game.
So those are my ideas. Can anyone think of others?

The first two I totally totally agree with! Alhough I used to play WoW so I quite like the fetching quests lol. Also, games in which you cannot alter the difficulty level without restarting the whole game are idiotic.
I don't know whether i would call it creepy but Metal Gear Solid 1 was extremely intense and for ages I couldn't figure out why I didn't want to play it. Once I figured it out I could finally enjoy the game. Also, technically Snake is the 'creepiest' character ever in a game in that he creeps everywhere, Chortle Chortle Chortle! Dead Space is the most traditionally creepy game I have played. Issac's pain-induced wheezing creeps me out alot!
As a former WoW addict (haven't touched a drop in over a month) I can safely say that if you try and not play WoW for a while, I think you will find that other games hold much more interest for you. This exact thing happened to me and I am loving my 360 so much more. I would sit on WoW for hours at a time not doing anything at all when I could have been actually enjoying the other games I had!
Oh the racist ones are the worst. Koon Bomber was some guys name.. i looked at his bio/info thing.. He said 'wishing for a world without........' you know. really horrible person.. was gonna tell him that but t'was my first day on live. didnt know if i was gonna be up on some sort of assualt lol!! Dont they have name moderators or something?? They do on wow, they make you change it. LOl. best name on WoW..... NecroHealiac (Undead Priest).. very funny.
I found Gears of War to be frustrating and lacking in replayability. The graphics were good but not worth anymore than PLatinum price, if that.
Saint's Row. I was saddened by what it offered. I beleived ppl when they claimed it could stand up against GTASA. I felt absolutely no necessity to move forward to advance the contrived and borrowed plot-line. Anyone who has played GTA has had their fill of free-roaming destruction between missions, Saints Row produced nothing really new.
