-FF7 is a boring, linear piece of garbage that barely qualifies as an RPG
-Ditto for the Diablo series
-Starcraft is the most overrated game of all time
-If Halo had been released on PC first, it would have been completely ignored.  The only purpose it served was to introduce the console world to overhyped mediocre shooters.

Tekken 5 only exists to bring newbies into the series - it sucks cock IMO
Dynasty warriors series are too monotonous to play

Diablo: clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick level up!clickclickclickclickclickclick
Repeat 50 times to beat the game

What makes Starcraft better than any other RTS out there?  There's nothing special about it.

exactly! what more could you ask for from a game? heh,

I don't know what it is. Probably because its the first RTS I played online. I put many many hours into that game. It just has a special place in my virtual heart now.

-KOTOR held my interest for all of about 2 hours
-In spite of putting out new versions every year, most sports games are still horribly broken and really unrealistic (this might not be that unpopular)

Half Life 2 = most over rated game of all time.
Pretty much everything else said before this post I don't agree with except what govt said about halo and starcraft.

- the Metal Gear Solid series's storyline is so unrealistic it's unwatchable a little through the second game. No, there isn't a conspiracy by the secret rulers of America to ban 1's and 0's.
- GTA San Andreas isn't going to turn us into violent impolite zombies
- Lucasarts sucked by pulling the Sam and Max sequel (not unpopular, i guess)
- I think of Super Mario Land when I think of mario because my first experience with mario was with that little pixelated guy. I never owned a NES :(
- the star trek next generation genesis game sucked in the middle because you had to wander a maze and search for invisible radioactive ore and rescue crewmen in little cacoon-type-things while being attacked by slugs that can apparently shoot you. (Geordi could see the ore but he was easily damaged beyond usefulness)
- The genesis was superior to the SNES (discuss)

Yeah, I can't think of that many noteworthy Genesis games, but there are tons of great SNES ones out there.

-Doom3 SUCKS.  They bragged about the graphics, but what good are they if YOU CAN'T FUCKING SEE THEM!?

- Generals Zero Hour is STUPID HARD at points.  Some missions you can walk through with 1 person.  Other missions you spend 2 hours just figuring out how to make it 10 minutes.  I hate suicide bombers.

- Starcraft sucks... see comments above

- Serious Sam blows.  A couple guys here love it, but it's just to simple for me.

Half-Life 2: the most boring, over-rated pile of steaming pish ever inflicted on anybody by somebody else.

Just about anything that has "non-linear plotline" somewhere in its description must be treated with the deepest of suspicion and, very probably, contempt.

*******

I'd disagree about Doom3 - I liked it a lot (and Resurrection of Evil); the darkness can be tweaked by ramping up the gamma (but too much, as with any other game and everything looks crap pretty quickly). I think you didn't like it, Ober, because you're just big girl's blouse who's scared of his own shadow. :tongue2:
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?.
