What popular games do you hate>?

Megaman games on NES, hard????? Damn, what other games are you guys comparing this to? Now GnG the first ever is ridiculously hard. My favorites are Megaman 2 on NES and also Megaman X-1 on SNES, great music and fun to play.

Ceti Alpha · 09/07/2007, 06:39 PM

Yeah, GnG is ridiculously hard, but very addicting. What is crappy about that game is that though there is a lot of skill involved in that game, there is an equal amount of luck that is needed to make it through. For example, you HAVE to get the shield (or the crucifix, which I've never seen) to beat the final boss. If you beat the boss with any other weapon than the shield you get put back to the start of the previous level.

Plus you have to beat the game not once, but TWICE!!!

hehe

I have not beat the game yet. I haven't even gotten through the first run through before you get sent back to level one.

Sinistar was a stupidly hard game as well, but again addicting as all heck. I used to get scared when the Sinistar would utter his threats to me and my little mining ship.

Here's a link with all of Sinistar's lovely scare tactics. I still get chills hearing them. heh http://onastick.net/drew/sinistar/

But as for a game I truly hate? That would have to be Winter Games for the NES (though it was out for the Commodore 64 and other systems). What a waste of money, time and space that game is. The only event worth any while is the speed skating. The ski jumping was on to something good, but fell flat on its face. The bobsled event was mind bogglingly terrible. This game really isn't even worth checking out just to see how bad it is. But it managed to fool me in the store with pics from the back of the box.

Though I guess Winter Games isn't exactly "popular". lol

Quote from: thumpin_termis on 09/06/2007, 11:14 PM1. Burning Rangers. It's the pinnacle of what I hate about first-gen 3D gaming. Getting lost in camera angles, and not being able to do simple stuff like jumping on the fucking ledge right above you.
...

wow, you impress me. you were actually able to notice that you were getting lost in cam angles and hung up on simple stuff? heck, i couldn't even tell what the heck i was even looking at on screen...

so, hows abouts some god of war games? funk them to no end. talk about hiding your lackluster, poorly-designed, anemic gameplay and mechanics behind a curtain of production values. those games are 95% canned animation sequences, 5% smack the square button over and over. yawn yawn yawn. considering the sheer number of cats who get off on these games, sometimes i think that i'm "not normal" (which i guess i'm really not, but come on...).

I LIKE Bunring Rangers.

Quote from: Tatsujin on 09/07/2007, 06:50 AMit's not just the hardness of those games, more the nastiness. i like G'n'G to no end, but hate r0ckman, why? rockman had this typical nasty scenes, where you killed one of those "most difficult to kill"-placed enemies, then you accidental moved back just one pixel on the screen and this muthafugglin' arsehole is there waiting for you again!! no thanx!!

What pissed me off even more was how enemies would repeat just after scrolling a pixel of the screen. The stage layouts didn't help this either, nor did the lack of being able to shoot up (c'mon even Metroid had this before Mega Man).

Turbo D · 09/08/2007, 04:19 PM

ya, it was a pain in the arse, but you get get around it in megaman2 with metal mans razer weapon, which is my favorite weapon in that game

At least Megaman's bullets reach the end of the screen.

Although that player is really good, it looks like some kind of emulation tricks were used, since they had the holy cross weapon on the first loop.

My girlfriend nearly completed the first loop, just to impress me (she doesn't play these types of games).

Agreed the player makes the play through look way to easy.

Still i would give credit to any one that can do it without useing a tas.

Btw that's some thing though your gf would pull a stunt,like that on GnG.

If you had a video of that i watch it.

Kitsunexus · 09/10/2007, 01:51 AM

Why would anyone want to watch a TAS? That's just like watching a game demo that plays the whole game, and being unable to press Start.

SignOfZeta · 09/10/2007, 07:00 AM

I don't know. Why would anyone want to fuck a dog? Its just something people like.

Tatsujin · 09/10/2007, 12:15 PM

if i'm watching to people here in the arcades which play daimakaimura (ghouls'n ghosts) both round through without losing a life, then this is only pipi in my eyes.

not to mention, they also use their handys while gaming and smoke some cigarettes.

Sorry, not into that either.

OldRover · 09/11/2007, 03:51 PM

I hate all new FPS games. It's an overdone genre that has become a brainless trend now. I also tend to heavily dislike any game that becomes a franchise...sequel soup is not a very good lunch. Of course, sports games bore the fuck out of me too, so they're out. I hate ALL Final Fantasy games after 7 because Squaresoft has forgotten what RPG gaming is all about (FF9 was a very lameass attempt at going retro, but they forget that being retro is NOT what RPG gaming is all about!). Most MMORPGs bore the fuck out of me; an easy test is to look at the forum for these games...if users are referring to enemies as "mobs", you know the game is shit because it's all about combat leveling and nothing else. FUCKING BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me RuneScape any day.
