5 most hated games of all time.

I'm a completionist, not a min/maxer. The two aren't even close to the same thing. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No clue how people could say FF7... best game of all time by far IMO. Hell, the Golden Saucer mini-games alone were better than most games to this day (battle arena 4tw).

Anyway:

1. EQ - Shadows of Luclin - the Bazaar killed one of my favorite parts of EQ, the EC tunnel. Fuck SoL, and fuck Sony for killing VI and the team who made EQ great.

2. InFamous - FUCK this game. FUCK IT UP IT'S STUPID ASS. I'm so goddamn sick of hearing how great it was. It was a shitty GTA clone where you shot nothing but shitty lightning at guys wearing trash bags for 20 fucking hours while doing terrible fetch quests in the ugliest fucking city I have ever seen. I got almost to the end and couldn't beat it because I hated it so much.

3. Diablo 3 - Took the incredible Diablo 2, fucked it up completely, then turned it into a cash farm. Fuck you, Blizzard.

4. Final Fantasy 8 - this is a special case. I think I really liked it until I got back from the space station (when the demons all show up) and crashed into the temple/castle thing, and then I couldn't beat those fucking Turks wannabes you fight at the entrance. I couldn't grind anywhere to level up, couldn't go anywhere, just bang my head against those unbeatable fucks because I was so dumb I forgot to make a save way before the end of the space sequence. Fuck me, right?

5. Final Fantasy 13 - Hey Square-Enix, take my childhood, turn it into a linear shithole with only one redeeming character (Lightning), and then make it 30+ hours to even get to the open world I love about FF. Fuck you, Square.

Honorable mentions:

Every Star Wars game since KOTOR.
WoW past vanilla (fuck TBC)
Megaman - I suck at that game. All of them. I don't care how amazing they might be. I suck at Megaman.


Edit: The League of Legends thread made me remember - fuck this game. I don't see the point. What is the big deal? It's like an RPG that you lose your character in every time the game ends. What the literal fuck?

Megaman - I suck at that game. All of them. I don't care how amazing they might be. I suck at megaman

Awesome.

its true i hated ff8 when it came out. it hink i got to disc 2 and quit playing. a year later i picked it back up and beat it, it actually wasnt bad. the gardens colliding was epic as hell. ff3 best FF of all time. sorry ff7 aint got shit on it be sides some 3d.

[LiQuid]

FF7 8 and 10 can all eat poop.

9 and 12 are rad.

Haven't even bothered with 13. Modern Square games are dead to me. They're like weeaboo fanservice now.

[SamwiseRed]

i like idea of 9 but i thought the story was lacking. black mage dude was cool tho

[Brut]

FF8 was way too different when it came to the plot and feel of the game, but absolutely loved how hard you could break the battle system in that game. Most FF games you just had to grind exp endlessly, but FF8 you just spent some hour early on playing a lousy card minigame and you'd end up oneshotting everything in the game for the first 2 discs.

[LiQuid]

I tried to play thru 9 again when it came out on PSN and it didn't really age that well. I liked the story and all that wackadoo nonsense characters and stuff but it's so damn slooooooow. Like 30 seconds startup animation to every fight, slow ass battle timers and then another half minute for everybody to twirl their weapons around and divvy up the loot.

I want a FF9 remake with FF12 battle system. That'd be my fav JRPG ever.

[Swish]

Some of my favourites among your most hated!

Anyway,

5. Lord of the Rings Online

Horrible attempt at a WoW clone, yeah it wasn't the same as WoW but if you're going to take THE fantasy franchise and attempt to make it a successful MMORPG it needed to be more innovative and more fun than it was.

4. Street Fighter: The Movie

Take the defining 2D beat-em-up, add "real people", lol hard.

3. FFX-2

Sounds like a lot of people were pissed off with Square by FFX but I enjoyed the storyline, the blitzball, etc etc. Cue that terrible spinoff featuring just the female characters, add a lesbian, lol hard.

2. Zelda 2 - The Adventures of Link

Well Nintendo knew they screwed up I think by the top-down view returning properly to Gameboy/SNES sequels. Trying to merge a top-down adventure with a platformer was risky, probably not worth messing with the Zelda franchise over. Not much of a fan of the N64 Zelda games either [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

1. EverQuest 2

Anything that destroys the basis of good vs evil is a massive thumbs down (WoW wasn't far behind EQ2). To log in, see that I can play an ogre wizard, or a dark elf paladin. The whole all races/all classes idea was a huge screw up for me, and I think it changed but there was a group XP loss if someone in the group died. I loved it but I hated it, but the bottom line was if you wiped the XP loss was horrible. Also they blew up the moon, I loved Luclin [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I reserve my hate for the games that truly deserve it.

Custer's Revenge (Atari 2600) - I'm glad I was a kid (and too young for this) back then. Naked Custer captures naked Native American maiden with 44DDDs? Uh, okay. And c'mon... we're talking 2600 graphics. Even if it wasn't so offensively vile, there's zero titillation.

ET (Atari 2600) - I really think Spielberg was purposely behind Atari's subsequent collapse because of this stinking game. No, not really. But he should have been.

Uncanny X-Men (NES) - I'm a huge X-Men fan, but this just sucked. And why is Marvel's Spider-Man villain, Boomerang, one of the bosses in this?

Back to the Future (NES) - Not surprisingly, made by the same people as Uncanny X-Men (LJN).

Superman: The New Adventures (N64)
