Hahaha. Totally agreed. I love RPG's, but I just can't get into MMORPG's at all. I've tried, I just don't like it.

And the whole FPS thing... I admit, I'm not a big fan of FPS. I've just recently started playing Left 4 Dead which is totally foreign to me, as I've never liked FPS or desired to play any. But, I wouldn't go as far as to say that all FPS' are the same. There's a lot of them that are pretty similar, sure. But there's some that really stand out, like Halo 3, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Gears of War to name a few. I've watched my husband play enough of them to know. *shot* XD


Haha yay somebody agrees~
Yeah I've never been into FPS either. I don't really hate them though, I think it's just because I suck at them. Really really bad. The first one I tried to play was Halo 3 with my friend, and I just failed epicly. :sad-maya:

Yeah, I'm not that great at them either, which is why I've tended to stay away. ^_^;; But then I played a little bit of Halo 3 (and even got a kill while playing online, haha. XD) and started playing L4D recently. I'm not as terrible as I thought I was. But I'm by no means good, either. ^_^;;

FanBOY! Geez does the prefix "Herr" mean nothing these days. And why can't you end on a positive side :yuusaku: I got no hard feelings against you yet your all mocky and stuff.

Besides the OP changed his mind about no debating so your at least wrong about the last part :garyuu:


Well I changed my mind becuase I had quite a few requests to. But while nothing bad has happened yet, if anyone does start turning a debate into an argument then I might have problems. Oh by the way, don't feel bad about being called a fangirl for shipping a pairing. I'm a straight male but I enjoy shipping pairings.

Anyway Metroid Prime series, just one little problem. At the end of the first two (haven't gotten far in the third one), you are required to search throughout the entire world to find a handfull of keys. This was quite irritating and Nintendo's reason for this was to keep some people from getting through the game too quickly (so you're going to punish everyone for a crime that the hardcore and speed runners would do...lolwhut.)

Oh and Rachet and Clank. People give games like Banjo Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country crap for collecting, but it's much worse in this series. I shouldn't have to collect inane amounts of nuts just to buy one weapon (plus collecting ammo). It's almost as much as a chore as grinding in an RPG that doesn't have a fun battle system (looking at you Final Fantasy).

Which reminds me. Metroid Prime 3 should sport destructible environments, but doesn't. Why not? I have no idea.

And why is it that it's possible to charge missiles? That's just weird.

Y'know, videogames periodically break the laws of physics. Boomerangs are able to pick up items without any interferance in flight path. People can be hit directly by a sword without any lasting effects on thier physical performance. Bullets can be deflected with swords wielded by people who have less mass than said sword.

TWEWY: I did not see why this was considered one of the best rpgs ever made or best DS game ever. I admit it was diffrent and original but it was too similar to Gantz. The story was ok but nothing amazing like everyone made it out to be. Dont get me wrong, still a good game, just not AMAZING OMFG BEST GAME EVAR like most CR users claim. I could be biased since ive played a LOOOOT of rpgs.

Final Fantasy VII: I am a big final fantasy fan, at least of the older games, but VII wasnt as great as it is proclaimed to be. Everything about it was good, but it was blown out of proportions. It was a great game but after Kingdom hearts, so many started acting like they knew final fantasy Vii because of cloud and sephiroth without knowing anything about them, and because of it causing all those not needed VII sequels.

People who overhype on things or act like a crazy fan base tends to make me dislike the product they fan over more...

While it probably is wrong to critisize something before it comes out, after reading an article on FFXIII in my latest Game Informer I noticed a sense of Deja vu with some of the characters.

Lightning: Wepon-Bladed gun (Gunblade, one of the stupidest ideas for a wepon, in other words). "A former soldier who now fights against the government she used to defend *cough*Cloud*cough*. "Uses her speed and acrobatic prowess" *cough*Zidane*cough* "She seems aloof when dealing with others" *cough*Squall*cough*

Snow: "Fights with fists" "Heads an anti-government resistance called Team Nora" "Charismatic leader" "Several other members of Team Nora have been friends with Snow since they were kids" yep he's Barret with a hint of Tifa.

Hope: To paraprase he is a young boy whose mother was killed by being caught in the crossfire between the protagonists and the angtagonists. He now seeks revenge and blames a side male protagonist. Sounds a lot like Ken Amada from Persona 3 to me.

Vanille: Obligitory fanservice character.


But maybe it's just me.

I think Call of Duty 4 is overrated, just because it has good graphics does not mean that it is the best game of all time. I have played it before and I just think there is nothing special about it

Excellent examples so far, but I've got one that beats them all! More overrated than Kingdom Hearts, more overrated than World of Warcraft, more overrated even than Final Fantasy VII and Halo, THE most overrated game of ALL TIME has got to be...

Super Mario Galaxy.

Now before you drag me off and burn me at the stake for vile heresy, please allow me to clarify with a few points:

1. I LOVE Mario, and I am a huge fan of pretty much all of his older games (even if I like some less than others).

2. Many elements of Galaxy were superbly executed, including, but not limited to, the graphics, controls, sound, music and story. All of those things were just fine. Great, even.

"What does that leave," you ask? Gameplay. Galaxy was too linear, and therefore, too easy. Mostly, the things you can do at any given time are severely limited by the fact that you're on a pretty tiny planetoid. There's only one way to go (to the next little planetoid), and there's only one way to get there (collect five blue star pieces, spin in the sling star, etc.). Now I know there are still some "huge expansive worlds" to explore (Honeyhive Galaxy, Beach Bowl Galaxy, Melty Molten Galaxy, etc.), but frankly, they aren't that huge or expansive, at least not compared to a typical Mario 64 or Sunshine level. Even though the game definitely offers some tougher challenges (Bubble Blast Galaxy, Loopdeswoop Galaxy, Luigi's Purple Coins, etc.) they aren't enough to pick up the slack for the rest of the game.

Bottom line, I just can't get over how pretty much everyone in the universe (both journalists and gamers) totally fell in love with this game and proclaimed it to be on par with, if not superior to, Mario 64, when the two games are arguably not even comparable (in that Mario 64 is more open and Galaxy is more linear, or "pseudo-linear," since it technically plays in three dimensions just like Mario 64). In closing, if by some slim chance you agreed with any part of what i just said, or you're just interested, check out my full argument at http://gamesforjames.blogspot.com/2009/09/case-against-super-mario-galaxy.html.

We aren't going to bash you for your opinion.

But just as an opposing argument, I will say that while I understand your argument of the open world/linear world, many of the critics enjoyed the new gameplay ideas that were presented with it, namely the gravity and walking under a planetiod to name a few examples. That and it had a good amount of replay value with collecting all the stars to play as Luigi. That and the score was pretty great.

But to agree with you, the power ups were pretty underwhelming, and some of the bosses were fairly easy.

Thanks for your sympathies. :phoenix:

I guess multiple gravities and walkin' 'round in circles just didn't do it for me... :sadshoe:

By the way, another Mario game I thought was sadly pumped up was Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time. Pretty much all the journalists treated it like it was just as good as Superstar Saga, but (at least in my opinion) it really WASN'T.

The story was offensively generic and uninspired (space aliens invade? seriously? throw in time travel just to make it even worse) and the dialogue itself was pretty plain compared to the comedic gold in SS.

What's more, the graphics (particularly those of Mario and Luigi) somehow managed to be UGLIER on the DS than they were on the GBA (subjective, I guess). What the crap?!

Finally, the music just seemed mediocre. I know, Superstar Saga's music looped just as much, but you didn't care because the melodies were actually enjoyable to listen to. Not so with Partners in Time. (Again, an incredibly subjective matter, but what can I say?)

So maybe my grounds for this one aren't nearly as concrete, but I was just putting it out there.

I think Halo and Twight Princess are overated. I don't like in Halo how many of the rooms look the same and thus it gets very confusing to know where to go. TP had the stealth, backtracking, and fetch quest, and some of the dungeons were too simular and inferior to OOT. They aren't terrible games in my opinion, just kinda overrated.

But even those games don't compare to king of overrated. That, in my opinion, is Grand Theft Auto. Why do I think that?
1. The firing controls are some of the worst I've seen, especially GTAIII. You end up missing the target have the time. And sometimes you accidently kill someone you don't want to.
2. Some of the missions are either too bland or too frustrating. Nothing like replaying a mission over and over because you accidently killed someone or get killed yourself or the criminal or car your chasing gets away.
3. Going around killing people, while at first amusing, gets old very quickly.
I can go on and on. The best thing about GTA is the minigames, and some of them aren't that great. If you like GTA, and don't agree with my opinions, that's fine with me. But I don't like it personally.

Same.

CoD is the most overrated game ever.

When I played it, it was Ok, but nothing more.

I saw reviews giving it 95%. I'd give it 61%.

Well, lets see, I have a few...

MK Wii~Ok, ok ok. It's suppossed to be the best mariokart game ever. And I guess it is, and I had fun playing it. But once I had unlocked EVERYTHING and gotten 3 star rating (This took me...1 1/2 months?) there was nothing else much to do. I Pwned everyone online, apart from the occasional expert with a creepy name like '>$A|\/|*[OC]%<' (what is the deal with that? Can somebody tell me?). I soon got bored with it and after that there was not much replay value. I preferred Double Dash *brick'd*

CoD~Do I have to give a reason? Just look at almost every comment here. Reason enough.

CLUB PENGUIN~Oh lord, don't get me started. What, you waddle around and meet new friends? Big whoop. Theres nothing else to do apart from the occasianol sucky minigame and the secret cases or whatever they're called. The only time I use this is when my MSN isn't working. And it has its own DS game? Pur-lease. Not that I exactly like it, but I think runescape is more deserving of a ds or wii game.

Scribblenauts~OKay, let me get this straight. I love scribblenauts, and it is in the top 3 of my DS games already, however, it wasn't what it exactly was hyped up to be, if you know what I mean.

...er...actually a lot of people I know share your sentiments. Especially if you're talking about the first five minutes. In fact, my friend who lent me the game admitted himself that he didn't like a lot of the beginning at all, and another friend I recommended it too felt the same way. She almost didn't finish it; but it does pick up towards the end of the game *shrug*

I liked it.

I'm not a big fan of RPGs or RTSs. Probably because everyone cries "best game ever!" and defends them to the death, and partly because I'm so damn bad at them!

I don't think CoD is overrated anymore, and I respect Gears of War as a series now, but Halo is probably the number one game that I hate with every fibre of my being. Shut up about it already! I wouldn't have a problem with it, if it wasn't for the fans making a wall with their bodies. They will guard their precious egos and their god of games to the point of actual religion. I don't want to hear how you "pwned that n00b". I don't care how you can't use real words to get your point across. I don't care.

But I'm getting too worked up. I'll leave it there and put on my bulletproof vest.

(What? I found the thread, and thought it was interesting. That a crime?)
Also, (Better have a death wish.) I'm not too keen on... Kingdom Hearts either. It's the fans that always kill series for me, and this is the second most killed game series for me (next to Halo.) They always seem to enjoy the storyline, and I remember first reading about it and noticing the Disney characters. But when everyone was talking about the original characters, (all freaking day) I thought there were no Disney characters, and I had made them up. This was right up until last month. ONM had a review of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days or whatever. I noticed Mickey Mouse and was stunned. There are Disney characters? Right. I also laughed my head off. They gave it something like 78%

Wow, a Twilight anime. God help us all.

Oh BTW, this is for video games, not a general topic (unless a mod sees fit to move it to Wright and Co. Law Offices.)


Oh, in that case World of-shot-

I don't like it though. XD

Silent Hill 2.

It's reguarded as the scariest in the series, but after SH3, I can't believe it. There are only one or two instances where the scenery changes into the "alternate" version (sorry can't remember what it's offically called), and when it does, the only difference is a little more gore and blood on the walls and enemies. The plot also makes very little sense.

Heh heh you ain't seen nothing yet my friend.
I'm not sure if it's the 'scariest' in the series but I'd say it's the BEST in the series.

You say "will be". So they havn't been explained yet? (Doesn't know what happens past game 3).

Well, to each his own. I thought SH3 did everything that SH2 did, but better overall. It had great graphics that still look amazing today, better locations, more WTF moments, a better plot.

Oh! I thought you were in the process of playing SH2 and hadn't pieced together everything.
Such a shame Neo it appears you missed the big point of it.

Spoiler: Silent Hill 2 LOTS OF SPOILERS
The entire town is designed to torment those who visit it. All the enemies are James' own manifestations. Maria is a manifestation of his wife, she is killed repeatedly to torment James (who killed his own wife). Pyramid Head also serves to punish James for his actions by raping monsters, reminding James of his sexual anguish he felt being unable to touch his wife, and killing Maria, reminding him of his own actions. Thats the reason Laura could run about the town freely, her soul was innocent and pure not tormented by demons so she didn't have monsters chasing after her. The final boss fight is reminiscent of Mary in her bedridden form a symbol James had grown to hate. The nurse monsters were overly sexualised because of his sexual tension. I think it's official that immediately before SH2's beginning James was driving home from the hospital having killed his wife and he had a mental breakdown causing him to imagine the magic letter from his wife. Interestingly this letter, as the game progresses, loses it's text making it a blank sheet of paper before finally disappearing from his inventory all together. Silent Hill torments the visitors in a way most fitting of them. Angela commented "It's always like this for me" in the burning staircase scene implying what her 'nightmare town' is like. Additionally the Doorman enemy you fought in the room with her is representative of her father who raped her on a table or bed (it's quite obvious looking at it) and Eddie felt his own demons too though we never had to fight any of his. There's just so much symbolism and underlying meanings in Silent Hill 2 it's easy to see why it's such a brilliant game

@ Pierre.
I understand the symbollism in the game, (although you just explained what Maria was, I thank you for that, thats the only part I didn't understand), but I'm looking for how the game would appeal to a wider basis, not just the fan who took the time to understand the meanings.

I'm not saying that SH2 is a bad game, I just think that it is a bit overhyped, especially when you compare it to SH3.

*shrugs* I guess but just to clarify I checked with my other SH friends and they said in spite of playing SH3, 2 was better despite the irony of it being a spin off from the main branch. Mind you I don't think it's hyped enough to be mainstream in the first place. Nonetheless glad I could explain a little about the game to you.

I also tend not to like MMO a lot especially a game like WOW because there is so much to do that it can be overwhelming at times.

It is odd but I like Rouge MMOS better like the Dot Hack series and Phantasy Star Zero that recently came out for the DS. You can just do some dungeon crawling for a while and it is easy to enter and leave and does not have such a heavy emphasis on Quests.

I think Rock Band/Guitar Hero is overrated because the new versions cost just as the old one not to mention that the instruments are sometimes not compatible for older versions.

The online community should have include an option where you could search out for players who wanted to play on a certain difficulty mode etc. There have many times that I have been kicked from a session just because I chose medium difficulty.

I also keep wondering when Rock Band and Guitar Hero will reach a point where the average consumer will not be interested in it anymore because both series have been milked to death.

I think Professor Layton is overrated. It's good and all, but when it comes down to it it's still a puzzle game and the puzzles remain for the most part utterly unrelated to the plot. I love the presentation - the animated cutscenes are adorably well-made, and the music is fantastic, but it really doesn't such a giant fanbase.

Still, I am going to be buying every game and probably watching both movies. Call me hypocrite =P
