Unpopular gaming opinions SECOND IMPACT

Just like Jesus, Chris G is also misunderstood. Chris G-zus.

I’m talking about general people, not the 0.1% of competitive gamers who make money out of it.

They play it because its more popular and easier to get into.

I don’t play it :coffee:

I wish all the money was in Capcom Fighting Jam. I’d like to see how far players would go to get money if it meant playing a game they absolutely hated.

This is not an unpopular opinion. As a matter of fact it is not an opinion, it is fact.

I liked Onimusha 4: Dawn of Dreams

Was it better than Onimusha 3? Nope, but I liked being able to rotate the camera. I like how you could control/direct AI characters with minor effort to make them less dumb than most game’s attempts.

It did have some bad things like a flawed RPG-like weapon system (1 unique animation shared with 20 other weapons), and a shit non-saving Phantom realm mode.

Not the greatest game in the series, but still had some improvements and some flaws. No Samanosuke as the main character didn’t help matters either.

Yep, it’s good but not great. Solid continuation of the series with a slightly connected cast. I hope Capcom does something with the series in the future, just as long as they don’t come up with some stupid way to “Westernize” the series.

I also liked Dawn of Dreams, tho I totally fucked myself over come that boss rush mode at the end cuz I only played as Soki the whole game :rofl:

Give him 20 years…

Big news on the Tatsunoko front: Tatsunoko’s animes are getting official releases in the USA!

FF7 is complete ass - I dont say this just to be cool, I actually hated that game since day, why? Because graphically it was ugly, the characters looked like dick They had like 5 polygons. Then I thought, while watch a buddy playthough it when it was new…it has no actual gameplay…

JRPGS have no gameplay - You walk into battle which may or may not be predetermined, in which you press X/A to confirm an action.

PlayStation 3 exclusives all suck. A bunch of 5 hour adventure games that add a “hard” mode for ‘replayability’ and by hard mode, they mean, more enemies, that do more damage, take more from you, and a platinum trophy. No thanks. I’ll rent.

I hate some games for aesthetics. For instance, SFIV. Among the other reasons it sucks, I hate the look and presentation of it. Even when the announcer screams “Whooooaah” on first hit. Hate how every character has their ugliest iteration in SFIV. I’d rather use little boy Ryu from Alpha/2D VS games, than ape Ryu from SFIV. Even hate the fonts for the names.

I’m pretty sure it happens with other games already…

X Tekken ring a bell?

took it right out of my mouth!

OK here is mine, probably it has been said before:

All Sonic 3D games (Adventure, Colors, 3D stages of Generations, 06, Shadow, Heroes, Lost World etc) suck!
they are worse than the worst Sonic 2D games. the thing that kept them alive? the horrible 3d design and the shitty voice acting that gave the fans something to talk about.

Anime fighters are the dregs of the dregs in Japan, just like MK and Pit Fighter are the dregs in the West.

MvC and Capcom VS games are crap but the only delusion that keeps them alive is the Marvel license.

Red Dead Redemption is a mediocre game that should stay on consoles

The Last of Us is as mediocre as Uncharted,they just inserted a horror movie into it

MGS should have stopped at 4. the diarrhea jokes made me never to play another MGS again.

Nintendo have lost touch with reality but Sony and Microsoft are even worse.

Real gamers were born in arcades and computers in the 80s, not those NES console pussies (me among them :P) who grew up with Mario and cant solve a single adventure game without hints.

The OBVIOUS one for me: DmC reboot is a fantastic action game, that does the original series (mostly) justice

  • Army of Two games have all been quality and fun
  • I have always hated the core Megaman series with a passion
  • Reboots/remakes are misunderstood and are fantastic opportunities that should be taken advantage of often.
  • Marvel 3 >> Marvel 2 (although both are ass)

The Last of Us is so mediocre it’s scary. How this game got perfect 10’s across the board I will never know. The stealth is hit or miss, the shooting is boring, it’s way too easy, and the AI is retarded.

The story, while presented very well, isn’t that great. I mean it’s a zombie movie, err game.

Smash Bros. is a Kingmaker among the gaming industry.

Outside the few of us that enjoyed F-Zero racing (and I still didn’t care for him then Pico was my nig) who was fucking with Captain Falcon?

Motherfucking Fire Emblem games were not being released outside of Japan before Marth and Roy hit it big with Melee.

Would that boy Pitt have gotten a game with as much of a budget or hype as he did, had Sakurai not brought him back in Brawl?

Have you SEEN how many Wii Fit Trainer avatars and fan art are floating around the internet these days?

Maybe Kingmaker is too strong but no other single game franchise not connected to a major pro sport generates the fan interest that Smash Bros. seems to for its characters.

The industry is moving toward graphically powerful linear as fuck single player experiences with the illusion of branching paths.

Super Turbo is a relic from the past and is woefully outdated.

COME AT ME BROS!

^ You were about to get it.

Glad I dont have to.

I don’t know how popular this opinion is, but, Arkham City is the best overall game this generation. However I think Rocksteady’s “genius” is extremely overstated and exaggerated. They took a proven fight formula from Assassin’s Creed, dressed it up like Batman, and figured out a silky smooth way for Bats to get around and that was most of the heavy lifting right there. People afraid that this new WB studio can’t handle Origins are pretty silly.

Side note…the anti TLoU stuff makes me lol/wtf simultaneously. It probably, literally deserves twice as many perfect scores as it’s received already. Game is amazing…you weirdos.

@Wellman Marth and Roy were in Melee for the sole purpose of hyping up FE to western audiences. That’s a fact. Same with Lucas/Ness. Lucas was supposed to be in Melee instead for Mother 3.

LoZ on a whole is blown out of proportion tremendously. Especially because of the fandom. They hate on the wrong games (windwaker) and fail to realize no game in the series has surpassed ALttP.

Yeah, and 99% of the people left who are actually still playing it like the game. All the people who hated it, gasp stopped playing it.
