I wonder if all the Limbo hate would exist if people weren't just trying to bandwagon on Jeff's irrational hatred of the game.   "

I don't think it's bandwagoning, it's just the kind of game that has polarising opinions.
 
I loved Limbo while I played it, and then all-too-quickly, it was over and the ending was absolutely terrible and left a bad taste in my mouth.   It had that smug kind of 'Ah, yes, the ending is artistic and open to interpretation!' vibe about it, when in actuality, there was nothing to interpret at all and just gave me a feeling of '... what?  Is that it?' 
 
I remember reading message boards around that time, and some of the theories people were coming up with were so messed up...  "Isn't it obvious?  He clearly had a car accident when kids were crossing the road when his family was driving to the hotel and both he and his sister died.  You can tell this because there was a tyre in one of the levels, and a hotel sign, and kids."   How so many people were posting that with a straight face was beyond me.
 
So~  Limbo.  Great for an hour at most, but I sure came off feeling robbed of money and completely unsatisfied with how the game just ended without a single clue as to what the hell the point of it was.

I don't get people with Limbo, I felt the atmosphere for the first two hours and then got stuck on a puzzle and it took me over an hour to finish it. Now all that game reminds me of is frustration, sure my judgement of the game is based on my experience but, it's still my opinion and thats what this is all about.

Everyone else thinks he looks like Michael C. Hall.     "
I think he looks a bit like Neil Patrick Harris. "
He's easily a younger brother or cousin of Michael C. Hall. 
 
As for all the Limbo hate...why the hate? I didn't make Limbo my goty, but it was easily in my top 10. It simply generated a feeling and atmosphere that I hadn't experienced with any game before.

I still find that Limbo and Mass Effect 2 are the most overrated games this year. They both were fine in their own rights, Limbo never took off, and Mass Effect left me still wanting a game I now believe will never come out... an actual sequel to Mass Effect. ME2 just felt like a much different game than it's predecessor, and and yet more like every other third person shooter out there.

Pfft, finished Heavy Rain in two sittings? I finished it in ONE! I started playing it at 3 pm, and finally stopped when I finished it the next morning at 3 am. 12 hours straight. Longest movie ever.
 
Also, I am constantly reminded of how much Drew looks like Dexter Morgan..

Probably all the drool he got on the first one after Pacman's shininess.
