The Biggest games you love to hate

No flaming  just name a huge franchise example (halo, GTA, Mario series) and just open your heart and let the hate flow through but please try and make a valid and poignant argument, here I'll start with.... Super Smash Bros. it's like you have to just randomly mash buttons like your having a seizure and if luck is on your side you might get a draw and the characters what Nintendo fanboys wet dream/fan fiction did they get their picks from the Ice climbers? really they couldn't think of any better canidates were they scrapping the bottom of the barrel and now I just had an aneurysm and can't go on the part of my brain that does the typing, and the thinking has just blown thinking of who this game appeals to and why. there I just had to air this grievance     

Super Mario Galaxy. The level designs are boring, and the camera and controls are horrendous. 

GTA4. I can't get enough.

Hate threads are dumb, flaming or not.

Yay for a stupid post from someone who has never posted before...this looks promising.

close thread.

I totally agree. I can't think of a more overrated and disappointing game."

Call of Duty 4

The game is basically an "on-rails shooter" (VERY LINEAR)
It feels very arcade-y, but claimed to be ultra-realistic. (in many senses, Geometry Wars 2 is a better shooter, and they feel very similar).
Generic Character models
The Series peaked at Call of Duty 2.
Sniper Rifles are overpowered (so you shoot me in the toe and 90% of my health is gone?)

There are MANY other reasons, but its late, and I don't want to give them game more attention that it has already gotten through the overhyped media and quality blind, keg party attending, and basement dwelling public...

WOAH WOAH WOAH.

WAIT.

HOLD UP.

SLOW THE FUCK DOWN BUDDIES.

I thought SMG was amazingly great. The controls seemed pretty laser-precise, and the camera never gave me any big problems. Some of the levels are a bit lame yeah, but the beauty is that you can just skip them and go play the interesting ones, because there's such a variety. I thought SMG was a true return to form for Nintendo."

I created a monster......awesome

Haha, yeah, with your first post. Good job! I got a little carried away there. It's just that this whole "SUPER MARIO GALAXY IS THE BEST GAME EVER" nonsense kind of gets to me.

Final Fantasy VII and all subsequent Final Fantasies
The main characters friend dies? OMG BEST STORY EVAR!!!!!
Christ...

Yay for people who have nothing better to do then eat there own shit and post like crazy as if it means something! Maybe instead of being a re re why don't you take a break from the computer and FUCK YOUR OWN ASS!!! lol Sorry Kush and SpaceInsomniac please just STFU and go to other topics and stop bitching! I will also take my own advise now. I agree. Final Fantasy is a franchise that just needs to stop now."

Man, I knew typing all that would be a complete waste of time!

Never could get into those Zelda games. 

GTA4. it just feels so old and boring compared to every other shooter. oh and kz2. it looks boring and mediocre. and the graphics aren't even that good

How can you hate Killzone 2 when it's not even out yet? You gotta give the game a chance, man. I'd say from what we've seen so far, it looks like it'll be at least pretty good.

Any 360 games you don't like, since you're alligned with Microsoft? "

Halo 3 it is just Halo 2 with improved graphics ,4 person co-op and forge and theater mode...

The Madden franchise.  I don't like the way of how they crushed their competition with the NFL 2K series.  Like Jeff said: "EA went on to shut this series down by acquiring the exclusive rights to the NFL franchise."  This is a bummer because without competition, creativity and innovation drops, and this obviously, leads to a game that looks practically the same as the year's prior.

Gears of war, the multiplayer was a bunch of lag/random chainsawing that sucked. Cover systems just plain suck in mutiplayer games. "Let me just hide until I see someone with my 360 degree view with my back to the wall." Stupid ass game.

Super Smash Bros Brawl. Sure its fun with friends until someone who just button mashes is able to kick your ass.

Twilight Princess, in my opinion, was a disgrace to such a legendary series.

MADDEN!!
