High rated games you just couldn't get into?

Because it still exists and made what gameplay there was enjoyable? Just because I don't like other aspects of the game does not make the ones I do like irrelevant even though it got to the point that I couldn't stand to play anymore. I actually enjoyed MGS 4 when I was able to play (mostly the first stage). Have you ever played games where you really liked some elements but others just ruined it for you? Do you believe those fun parts should then be ignored or their benefit lessened because of the non-fun ones? Shouldn't those fun components be part of your review?

@MirkoS77:

If the aspects of the game that I hate are so bad that they make me say that I despise the game then the good parts no longer matter, and probably serve to only make the experience more frustrating and miserable by being a constant reminder of wasted potential. A game that I despise certainly doesn't deserve a 7/10.

So basically, a game is binary to you. It's either a 1/10 or a 10/10 right? That's basically what you're saying. And it's perfectly possible to be able to acknowledge quality while not liking something.

Assasins Creed games. The missions are boring and tedious. (I haven't played Black Flag yet)

From the top of my head:

Souls series

Witcher series

Bioshock Infinite

Dishonored

Hitman series

CoD series

Actually most of the games that came out in the last 3 or 4 years; I've been finding less and less enjoyable games lately and I used to have a really bad impression about indie games and ironically it's now the category I've been finding most of my enjoyable games recently.

MGS4 for me. I own it and have tried to get through it 3-4 times but every time I just get around 4 hours in and I'm just bored out of my mind. I'm guessing it's a game that you have to either be "in to" or not. I never really enjoyed any previous MGS games other than the first and just cannot see the pull of this one. The graphics aren't great, voice acting is hammy and game play just isn't fun (all IMHO). Truth be told there's not many games out there that I just dismiss as easily but this one just doesn't do it for me at all.

This. Simply the most overrated game ever made. I wouldn't even call it a game actually. It's nothing but cut scenes the whole way.

NO!... Just NO!

Assassin's Creed 1 was a chore for me to finish. A good story does not trump repetitive gameplay.

Bioshock Infinite was another disappointment. The E3 15 minute demo was nowhere to be found in the final release and gameplay was definitely watered down and way too linear compared to Bioshock 1 and 2. Even Burial At Sea DLC's look better than Infinite. The new stealth mechanics they added in Episode 2 should have been included in Infinite. Columbia and the whole Vox Populi crap was a waste. Levine should have just made Infinite take place back in Rapture.

GTA IV, I thought the same thing and ended up taking it back a few days later.

New Vegas is starting to grow on me but it will never beat Fallout 3 when it comes to exploration and randomness. I agree it definitely feels like one big DLC for Fallout 3.

Dishonored, what you mentioned are the main reasons that keep me from trying it out.

Gears of War, DA:Origins, Bioshock 2, Torchlight, FF7(After playing 6, i just could not get into 7) etc

Halo series, Fallout, Oblivion, the new Max Payne, Batman AC, Borderlands series, Bioshock Infinite. I'll probably try and play some of them again at some point, but didn't see what the fuss is all about
