Unpopular gaming opinions SECOND IMPACT

No one ever said it was a bad game it was just really bad compared to dmc1 n 3.

And pay $4 a gallon :slight_smile:

All those games are mediocre/shit

All of them.

-Pokemon R/B/Y is one of the greatest RPG’s ever, the only thing that really hurt it was that it was so ahead of its time. Imagine if the game concept came out when handled consoles had wi-fi capabilities. PvP battles would be much more of a big deal, niggas would be training pokemon and selling them on ebay.

With that said I will do a list of greatest handhelds ever.
-Nintendo DS (first time a handleld was putting out more quality than the consoles)
-Gameboy Advance (just because so much was ported)
-Sony PSP (if it wasn’t for all the customizations and the big ass screen it would be lower)
-Pokemon Machine…I mean Gameboy/Gameboy Color
-Game Gear (ahead of its time, but poor battery life and weak libary)
-Nomad
-Lynx
-N-gauge (pretty shitty, but I think phone capabilities is the future of handheld games)

Everything else I have never touched, so I don’t want no Japanese fanboy telling me how ill the wonderswan is!

I would say most of them are unoriginal, but they all very fine tuned (minus gaiden 2)

edit: and fuck it, its more than what the ps3 has to offer.

Well I guess this is why this is the unpopular gaming opinions thread due to that being an unpopular opinion. :razz:

Well Gran Turismo isn’t really a real driving simulator.

When I said ā€œmasterpiecesā€, I definitely didn’t have Mongol and Conan in mind.

I think LOTR is closer to masterpiece than almost anything 2000 or later. Wall-E blew me away, but I’m could be on one of those temporary highs that you get when you watch a good movie that makes you think it’s better than it actually was. No Country was really good, but it’s hard to say if it will be considered an all-time great.

>>>> To steer this post back on topic…

This isn’t meant to be a typical PS3 vs X360 argument, but it will probably be perceived as one anyway:

I think it’s pretty obvious that X360 is hella overrated. It had its 15 minutes of fame when PS3 was an overpriced piece of garbage, and there was no other next-gen console to compete with it (LOLWii). When all is said and done, I still predict the X360 will sell more units than PS3, but in terms of exclusive video games PS3 will clearly be the better gaming console (not factoring in Blu-Ray movies) … if it isn’t already.

X360 is so 2007.

Juno, Superbad, and Knocked Up were good… but not masterpieces.

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a pointless game, and though its fun as hell exploring and talking to people and learning new shit… its all fucking pointless! You will never feel as if you have achieved something because the world levels up with you so no matter how strong a sword you get you will always take around the same damage as the last sword you had.

Damn pointless… who thought up of this system? Seriously wtf!!

And why is the first healing spell you get the best in the whole damn game (aside from Lord’s healing spell). Anything else that gives you even +1 more health costs 10+ magicka and as a Nord who has shitty magicka and shitty mercantile skills and can’t afford potions… it takes a fucking hour to heal up!!!

The games are still great fun, but for the love of God include tutorials. Fucking please.

I’m looking at you UNLIMITED!

I figure I’d post this here. I loved the original Banjo-Kazooie and this seems to have a lot of the N64 titles charm and humor but gameplay looks and sounds like it will be a little bit of a mess.

But then again, I wasn’t blown away by Mario Galaxy until I played it, so I could be wrong.

jak2 is better than GTA made…

im outi

That’s what you meant to say.

EDIT: You may or may not agree viewer discretion is advised if you don’t agree

Video Game Tidbits about stuff that actually sucked in my opinion:
-Final Fantasy XII sucked (I agree with topic starter)
-Ocarina of time sucked, and any other 3d Zelda but Wind Waker (agreed again)
-Advanced Wars Days of Ruin wasn’t as charming as its predecessors. Wi-Fi was nice though
-Yoshi Story sucks
-Call of Duty 4 wasn’t a good shooter, it was basically COD2 with no recoil (sorry to disappoint it was fun for 1 month though)
-Jet Force Gemini sucked
-Final Fantasy 7 is also over-rated and depressing. 1,4,9 were the series top games
-GTA was never a good series (I know it has been repeated)
-Super Smash Bros Brawl was just a compendium of dick sucking from Nintendo and a very slow one compared to Melee
-DOA is very dull despite pixel jiggling boobs
-Racing sims like Gran Turismo/Forza are just racing games with bad controls
-Team Fortress 2 isn’t better than Fortress Forever
-Xenosaga was a bad space Opera
-Castlevania isn’t a fun series. It gets dull.
-The Wii Gaming Catalogue is dull. Virtual Console is also not up-to-par
-Super Mario 64 sucked.
-The XBOX360’s gaming catalogue is also dull minus Xbox Live Arcade
-Goldeneye was horrible to me back in 1998

-Jet Set Radio Future is better than Tony Hawk’s Skating games
-Elena was hotter than Chun Li in 3S and Cammy was hotter than Chun Li in ST other than that Kristen Kreuk is hot so Chun is auto-hot in that sense,but I don’t think video game females are hot (and I don’t care about how ā€˜good’ the men look too)
-Playstation 1 was better than Nintendo 64

I’m appalled at the fact that people still buy Xbox 360. When a company tells you that 1 out of 3 units is a lemon, you should run for the hills.

*Would you play ā€œRussian Rouletteā€ with 2 bullets in the gun? *

What would have helped your rant, and maybe this should be in the first post; you need some paragraph breaks and some organization/categorization my dude. We all read (or is going to read) the post below your’s because he shortened it.

Square enix is the most over rated group of fags on the planet.

Blame their fanbase and not them.

Jak 2 was my shit…

Now THAT’S how you improve a game.

Plus EA. I wish some other company with actual imagination took over these guys’ IPs.
