You're such a loser, Sentry. haha
This thread is titled "Well received games that you didn't like" for a reason.  You always seem to get butthurt when someones opinions don't match yours."

You're right... But the way, he was asking how th hell the game got so much praise, and I answered him... makes me a loser lol.

I'm just saying, I have had many friends (real life as well) who just hated the game at first (me included), it just felt like a cheap unbalanced not well made game. But seriously, you have to play the game a lot to understand, any game media outlet has even said this. That's the one thing about WH that sucks, is its hard to get into (learning curve)."

He wasn't asking it was rhetorical question.  And all you did was basically say you suck at the game thats why you didn't like it.  You shouldn't have to be good at a game to like it."

Sentry, I liked the original Warhawk, if you can use that in your argument at all. 

Haha. 

LOL! I never even played it. ><

Ummm, where did I say he sucked? Obviously he isn't GOOD at the game, and that is not an offensive statment AT ALL, we all know, the gaming press included, that WH has a really steep learning curve and that's why at first sight you might be thinking "Wtf is this?". He said how did the game get so much praise, I answered him, are you really jumping on my ass for that? XD

And I never said you have to be good at the game to like it, you just have to know how to play enough to like it, which takes time. Just ask get2sammyb, he made a thread asking how the hell do people like this game, everyone explained, and he played more and more and he said he is getting around to liking it more now.

Again, he asked and I explained the truth, you can't argue with me for that."

You don't know what rhetorical question means do you?  Ok let me tell you.  A rhetorical question is a figure of speech in the form of a question posed for its persuasive effect without the expectation of a reply. For example, "Why me, Lord?"   He didn't say how long he played so how do you even know.  You assume just cause he didn't like it he wasn't good,  thats the problem  you don't feel he should have an opinion about a game you like."

TEH QUOTES!

Start your quote tree anew, guys.

LOL Sentry you are unbelievable.  You dance around everything.  You admit he wasn't asking, yet answer but then "say he was wondering"  you still don't get it.  

And your great counter to his "why so much praise" reaction is "Because it's a great game, and you don't understand that until you actually get good at, which takes a while"  Hardly an enlightend answer.    By that standered Ninja Gaiden 2 is a great game not because of the quality of the game but because it very hard to master.   You shouldn't need to play a game for weeks to find out its good.  Or what if he just sucked?  Why wasn't he matched up with ppl of = skill?  Isn't that the games fail not his?

And whats the point?  The point is he didn't like WH so, who are you to tell him he was wrong? (rhetorical question) Don't try to say you didn't tell him he was wrong because, you wouldn't have repled to him if you didn't think he was wrong. 
 
I don't have any big problem with you just let ppl have their opinions.   your welcome

PS i am done talking about it as well now.  if you want to go right ahead.
PPS i think this topic has been killed by us so i will start a new one    XP

Boy, I'm exhausted just watching this tug-of-war.

"Boy, I'm exhausted just watching this tug-of-war."

"I'm no fan of Gears of War."

Mass Effect. I've only just played it and honest to God, I was on the Internet every five minutes re-reading the reviews to make sure I had the same game. Horrible frame-rate, ludicrous texture pop-ins - it made me feel I was on under-specced PC instead of a 360.

San Andreas. I really think the controls are sloppy.

Hl2.  The game is... meh.
Also Mario Galaxy and GTA4.  That being said, they're still good games. (i think HL2 is mediocre- tiimeshift is just as good tbh)

Bioshock, sure it was a great game but not the masterpiece everyone claimed it was. I even looked up the second ending on Youtube as I has no intentions of ever touching it again after I had beaten it.

Gears of War just didn't do it for me.  Sure it looks great and the shooting mechanics work well, but I just don't like them.  Plus, the characters are worthless.  I guess that's the biggest problem for me.  I don't find Marcus Fenix's tough guy attitude appealing at all.  I'd be much happier with a game that actually has good characters and story.  Also, the third person view is less than ideal for me.  I don't feel entirely connected to what I am doing in the game.  I can see why people would enjoy Gears, but it just is not for me at all.  And yet I keep it in my collection...

Either way, I'm probably going to skip on the sequel.

Although Army of Two got mixed reactions from game critics, I know it was a big success with gamers.  I just didn't get it.  I thought the controls were absolutely horrible.  The feel of shooting was just really off, it somehow felt like it was on rails.  Moving around had a wonky feel to it with all of the moves kind of staggered together, missing any sort of smooth transitions.  On top of that everything had a horribly generic look to it.  Not to mention it was one of the most offensive games I have played in a while.  As far as the dialogue goes?  I'm convinced they hired a 6th grader with ADD and a severe case of Tourette's Syndrome to write the script.

Halo 3, or the Halo series in general. I just don't get what's so great.

"Halo 3, or the Halo series in general. I just don't get what's so great."

Let's see...

Dead Rising (boring and bland)
Call of Duty 4 (bland and unbalanced)
Braid (people look at everything except for the actual GAMEPLAY!)
Guitar Hero/Rock Band (I don't like Rock music, but like music games. Give me something with Hip-Hop / Jazz / R&B and I will be on board.)
Puzzle Quest (again, boring)
GTA Vice City (Just not good)
Mech Assault (repetitive!)

I could go on but you get the idea!!!

MGS4

i like games, not shitty movies

Didn't think much of OKami myself.

I love RPG's, hack  N' Slash games, and good old fashioned looting. But for the life of me, I coudn't get into Diablo. Always thought the Action RPG progenitor was boring as hell.
I would say SC4 as well, but, then again, not all the praise for that game has been cheers and 9.0's.

Have you even played it? Didn't think so."

I've seen Bioshock mentioned a few times, hope its not too bad since I plan on getting the PS3 version in October. Though most every game mentioned in here has its lovers ans dislikers (not a real word) I suppose. A demo would be nice.

LOL here we go again"

It is Ridder you're referring to here, of course he'll name a game on PS3 and bash it because thats all he does.

mine is halo 3 and assassin's creed off the top of my head. Initially liked AC, just got repetitive, then I realized I was going to be doing the same 'get info,pickpocket some dude, take someone out' thing for the entire thing and just kinda lost interest,halo 3, is just a same rehash of halo 2 with a gadget button which are all dumb items to begin with...and the whole community sharing stuff and forge that always gets mentioned as if its revolutionary and amazing is stuff you've been able to do for over 10 years on the PC with almost any game, and do it better, so whatever.

ah, Kingdom Hearts too, I hate disney stuff, and I don't enjoy playing in a prepubescent looking game controlling a kid that looks like hes 8 with a story that looks like its set to entertain no one else other than kids of the same age.  Will also never understand the whole FF7 'best game ever made' claims that people say.  Just my things I can think of atm.

Well I didn't play MGS4 but i did watch it on youtube and thought it was fun lol

Guitar Hero

Okami ws great!

Onimusha 3

i could not freaking stand oblivion. maybe because i like JRPG's to much.

Man.  All the Oblivion hate.  I'm sincerely surprised.  Not just because I love it, personally, but because everyone I know who's played it loves it, also. 

I'm curious as to what percentage of the anti-Oblivion following is loyal to Morrowind.

I used to be a Morrowind guy, but I can never go back. 

Well, I can't name just one.  So here are my top 3 games I hate and why:

1.  Bioshock.  Great atmosphere for the first 30 minutes.  Until it becomes nothing more than a medicore shooter with an extremely poorly implemented "different bullets do different damage" mechanic.  Oh, and the fact that there's no reason to Harvest little sisters.  You get FAR more than enough Adam saving them.  Oh and the plot twist... please... who DIDN'T see it coming?
2.  Crysis.  Poor script, poor VA and enough bugs & glitches to wonder how the game passed Q&A testing.  I don't remember the last game were I died walking through a door because of some weird clipping issue only to load my game up and spawn in the middle of the floor.
3.  Oblivion.  It's not a terrible game or anything.  But when I play an RPG whose purpose is to: a) Collect awesome loot b) level up and c) kick some serious monster ass with your beefed up character, I don't want to keep getting my ass kicked by petty goblins who mysteriously keep getting enchanted swords and glass armour.  (It's not so bad with the OOO Mod, but it's still a pretty boring unsatisfying game)

Anyhow, that's just my two cents.

Freedom Fighters

i did not get into super mario galaxy. i got it for xmas and played for a couple of hours but lost interest all too quickly

I really liked it, but my cousins felt the same you did, I don't know why, but I think it might have been the whole space/planets thing. :S

The metal gear solid series. I just didn't have any fun playing any of the games in the series.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, crappy combat and boring dialogue.

 And Oblivion. Oblivion is probably the most overrated game ever.

"Guitar Hero"

Pixel Junk Eden...sorry I tried to like you. I really did.

"MGS4

Gears of War not only annoyed me but where was the story and why did it take sooooo long to install.

Crysis is technically great but full of bugs and has a horrible ending.

Jak 2.  I hate that game.

"Riddler said:

I take it you missed the part where you actually play the game.
Take your fanboy comments elsewhere. Go back to gamespot with that crap."
