All those Nintendo 'classics' like Mario or Zelda or Pokemon. Can't really see what's the fuss is about...

Also GTA, fighting games (the duel type) and sports games.

The fuss is about the sheer brilliance of the gameplay. Play Zelda:Ocarina of Time and tell me you didn't like it. Or Play Super Mario World 3 on the Super NES. Pokemon was fun when I was 10.

Almost any FPS...( ecept the one u have to think like MP ) I totally hate sports games.
(Madden, FIFA etc) ( warning I do not ahte sports...maybe Football...its just that I rather play the actual game than be sitting there saying: "Im Zidane, Im Roberto Carlos" etc... Umm and I guess those "realistic" games... wich seem to be so popolar now....Im a mario zelda fantasy adventure guy.....for real..I have life rigth?.

so what if I do not enjoy FF7.

 

[homeyg]

I hate all RPGs.

Sims. Building your house is fun, but actually playing the game...? Not for me.

Pretty much any console game. Racing games are okay, but shooting games seem far inferior to their PC counterparts. Even Goldeneye.

Diablo 2. It's just pretty mindless. I played for the movies.

Warcraft 2. Well, I guess I enjoyed it, but I consider it pretty overrated.

The Final Fantasy and Zelda series...in fact, the only console games I do like are usually racing games. I also liked the Pokemon for Game Boy, and its still fun to fire up the ol' GB Color and play some Pokemon once in a while.

For PC its definitely Diablo II. My friends acted like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread, and to me it seems pretty boring. It's basically doing the same thing for hours on end...and don't even get me started on multiplayer. My other one is the Medal of Honor series. It's good, it just can't cut it when it comes to its competition in the WW2 shooter genre, such as Call of Duty and BF 1942, which, in my opinion, were much better games.

Okay don't consider Pokemon a Nintendo classic plz... I mean, yes, Nintendo made it, but it was never a classic... Just sold well cuz all the little kids bought all the games for it. Nothing compared to Mario, which is nothing compared to Zelda.

Also, I just got to his message, and I completely agree with it. Pokemon caught little kids probably like the new ones (yu-gi-oh i guess there are prolly a bunch more) but mario and zelda (especially ocarina of time) rock a lot.

 

[Akka]

Heroes of Might and Magic
All MMORPG, mainly DAoC (except perhaps WoW, I'll have to check)
The "brutish" FPS (Quake III, UT 2003 and 2004...)
Zelda 3 and Zelda 64 (boooooring...)
Mario (about as much charisma and class as his lead pipe...)
The Sims *disgust*
Diablo II (how such a lame game can be such a success ?)

People diss Pokemon way too much. The games were excellent. Addicting and fun, they showed that not ALL RPGs rely on a storyline to make them good. I still have fond memories of playing my Gameboy Color when I was younger.

Unfortunately, an oversaturation hit the market. Pokemon spread everywhere, and soon it stopped being cool to like Pokemon, but rather the cool thing is to bash it. And it still carries on today. This is one thing I like about the Japanese, they couldn't care less about what's "kiddie" and what's "for adults." I've seen grown men playing Pokemon on their GBAs on the subways. Granted, the fact that Pokemon is still quite popular in Japan (Fire Red and Leaf Green easily sold over a million each there... that's very disturbing) may have something to do with it.

Despite my disappointment in the later installments, I think the Pokemon series is still a lot of fun. The fad may be long dead, but the franchise lives on.

Two games that I didn't really hate, but couldn't see wht all the fuss was about were Half Life and SMAC.

Half Life was another run of the mill FPS as far as I could see. SMAC seemed to be Sid proving his earlier claim that Civilization in space wouldn't work. Who wants to build supergravitonic integrated semiconductors when they could be building the Pyramids, at least I know what the Pyramids are .

 

[PlutonianEmpire]

Turok 2: Seeds of Evil. I don't know wether this is popular or not. I hate it because I don't have the freedom that I do in Turok: Dinosoar Hunter. I like the Sims. You can model a replica of your family with using all your siblings as adults. Interesting things can happen

Halo: Graphics are cartoonish, and storyline was crap. I hated this game.

All sports games pretty much suck to me also.

I love UT2003, UT2004, Final Fantasy, Zelda, and Doom series though.

The thing abo Diablo II is that you have to understand that some people just enjoy going around and killing things. The storyline for the games are amazing, espicially if you played the orginal game.

 

[Gelion]

Is it worth bying UT2004 you think? I played all previous UT games, but its kind of expenisve...

If you liked the other one's, then it's worth buying. It's pretty much the same thing, just with more weapons, levels, and now they have vechiles in it.

The onslaught games are awesome (Onslaught is massive courses that has vechiles).

 

[Gelion]

I have the Demo of it. Damn, you just ruined my life . Buying it! Goodbye studies!
