Burnout Paradise.

All the reviewers raved about this one being an innovative racing game and whatnot, but I did not like the openworld racing style at all. Having to actually find your own route through a complicated city while at the same time speeding down the road at 180 MPH is just not a very good combination of gameplay elements. I really felt that the open world aspect turned the game into more of a high-speed interactive version of MapQuest rather than a racing game. Also, I didn't feel like the crash mechanics in this game were as fun or crazy as Burnout 3 (my favorite in the series).

It may have gotten great reviews, but after a demo playthrough and a 3 day rental, I'm fairly convinced that game was garbage.

I have yet to find a game that I have extremely disliked.

I've disliked a few here and there.

I can't really say anything about the games I disliked though, I have only played them and friends' houses and only for an hour.

But if that counts, put Halo, Metroid Prime, and Zelda.

No More Heroes.

I cant believe it got so many good reviews. The actual main storyline is 4 hours long at most, the overworld is completely empty and dull, levels are bland, and the button mashing combat gets repititive in just a matter of minutes.

[QUOTE="ice144"]Elder Scrolls Oblivion, easily. How can people like such a horrendously bad game I have no idea.Technoweirdo

Well Vanilla Oblivion is an awful, glitch infested game, but with around 30 mods its not that bad :P

Mind listing those 30 or so mods? I've had my copy sitting right next to my monitor for over a year now, practically begging me to give it a second chance.

Ok lets see:

Francescos Leveled Creatures and Items

Francescos Optional Files 1, 2, 3 (comes with Frans Leveled Creatures)

Natural Weather

Natural Water

Natural Wilderness

Natural Vegetation

Open Cities

DarNifed UI

Oblivion XP Leveling

Mages Guild Teleport

Elven Map Redux

Bank of Cyrodill

Realistic Ragdolls and Force

No Psychic Guards

Dirty Bravil

Kvatch Rebuild

Illumination Within

Mounted Combat

Dragon Slayer

Ambient Town Sounds

Deadly Reflex

Harvest Flora

Harvest Containers

Saddle Bags

Bedrolls

Qarls III Texture Pack

Caldera

Better Gold Texture

Oh and if you are going to install this mods remember to install Oblivion Mod Manager and OBSE.

PS: Also always backup your saves

Halo 3. It's just all around mediocre in every department. Except the singleplayer,the singleplayer was downright atrocious.

Mass Effect, I think its the most boring game I have ever played. Luckily I didnt pay that much for it.

The game was extremely repetitive, the characters just sucked, it was a glitchfest and the framerate was laughable, so was the combat system and gameplay, huge load times, oh, and did I mention the game was boring? Seirously, the story just sucked. Also, I cant believe Gamespot gave this game the best music award last year and not to SMG. There is pretty much NO music for half of the game. How did it win best music award?

Thats about it, I expect people to hate me now. :P

Gears of War.

I was disgusted by the amount of blood, gore, and swearing that was in the game. Even when they were supposed to be turned off.

SSBB. I'd never hate on it on system wars, as i dont understand the idea of hating on games which people obviously love, but i just dont like it. Everything about it is super-duper simplified and repetitive.

Probably Fable, I believe that it is a sad excuse for an RPG, or any RPG in general.

I don't dislike it because it didn't live up to what was promised, but just how it plays in general. Annoying loading screens, a 10 hour game and a terrible, terrible story and characters with annoying accents. The game is too chirpy and happy for my liking - even when you play an evil character you still look cartoony.

Also really hate Halo 2 (not the others though) probably because it feels like such commercial garbage and legendary mode was the most unbelievably cheap difficulty in any video game. To even things out a bit I also dislike (but still admire it) Shadow of the Colossus (unbelievably boring) and the Paper Mario series. Mario Kart annoys me a lot as well with its cheap ways of achieving victory.

COD4, Super smash bro brawl, and WoW. But WoW the most. All these people from school were telling me to try it. I got on the 10 day trial and man was it bad, just a bunch of little kids and nerds yelling NOOB, NOOB, it was kind of fun playing with my friends but when the werent on it was a borefest. Never played it again after that.

It seem many people like Monster Hunter Freedom 2, but to me it wasn't great. The gameplay was bad, and there were way too many loading times, with some being long.

Resident Evil series: I could never get into the genre and I hate rationing anything.

Gears of War: All flash and no substance.

Mass Effect: IMO, one of the biggest letdowns on the 360. Overall, it felt rushed and generic.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl: I felt myself getting dumber the more I played it.

Half-Life 2: Boring gameplay that seemed to drag on and on and on.

I think that covers it.

I don't really despise any videogames that others have loved. There has been a few that I have been dislike though, like Final Fantasy III. The gameplay is slow and boring, and the story is the least interesting out of any FF game I played (although I have only played a couple in the series so that may be why).

Ya, I knew. I like the style but not the content. (Christian morality and all that.)

I heard about an option to turn that stuff off, so I rented it for a week. Turned out that the aforesaid option didn't work to the extent I expected, so I returned the game.

Smash Bros. Brawl. It was so hyped, with infinite new characters and a huge story mode and online gameplay, I can't help but feel frustrated and disappointed. The graphics looked dull and unfinished compared to Melee's smooth colorful graphics, and even with a gamecube controller, the controls felt loose. Not to mention the friend codes make playing online with friends a chore, and lack of communication makes you feel like you're just facing a cpu, which pretty much ruins the point of playing friends.

Good topic

Mario Galaxy and Ratchet and Clank TOD - I was never fan of platform games.

SSBB - The smash games never appealled to me.

Half Life 2 - I played it twice on pc and once on the 360. I could never enjoy this game which is praised by most hermits in sw. I hated the controls for driving the vehicles especially the hovercraft. To tell you the truth reason why I got HL2 for pc was to play CS:S.

Fable - Only thing good about the game I thought was the stadium battle.

Uncharted - I found it to be an average game.
