Do you have any opinions about anything gaming in general, that most people don't agree with you about? For example, I think that Splinter Cell Conviction was really good, Crash Team Racing is better than any racing game ever made, and 007 Quantum of Solace was better than any Call of Duty ever. Share your unpopular opinions!

(I know there is an Overrated Underrated topic but this isn't really the same thing. )

Most don't agree with me saying Max Payne 1 and 2 were even good.

- Skyrim is an extremely overrated, mediocre RPG
- The final product of Mafia 2 sucked ass
- Borderlands is a sorry excuse for a game
- Why do sports games even exist any more?

[Cosmic Gypsy]

Battlefield 3, although looks slightly nicer, with better animations and feels more fluent when it comes to player movement, is actually much worse than Bad Company 2.

Could not totally agree more!

[Street Mix]

This thread again....

-Half-Life 1,2 is deeply overrated boring shooter.
-SR3 is OK and no worse than SR1&2.
-GTA CW > all your other "AAA" shooter and action games.
-Even if games are art, shooters definitely aren't (maybe except for CoJ BiB).
-Dota 2 is the worst game ever.
-MP3 is OK game.

[LazyboyEight]

I prefer the old cartoony style of Saints Row 1 and 2 rather than the style of SR3....
Probably nostalgia.

Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped was the single greatest video game ever spawned.

[Rolf Harris]

I absolutely love and adore Kane and Lynch - the character depth and depth of narrative (as a standalone game without support from novels etc.) is definitely up there. Kane and Lynch 2 is the only game I've ever genuinely felt alive playing.

- Call of Duty is EXTREMELY repetitive, stupid, and worst of all, it's FILLED with 12-year olds.
- Minecraft and Angry Birds are about as fun as watching paint dry, not to mention that they're almost as overrated as CoD, and that almost EVERY SINGLE person here plays Minecraft (and is addicted to it).

[GTASAIDEAMASTER]

Even though I like skyrim,I too find it overrated.
I'd prefer a James Bond game to a CoD game.
A game being more popular because it has multiplayer is stupid.
Dead Island is underrated
The newer Need for Speed games have been sucking and lacking features from the previous ones which were awesome(Underground(2),MW,etc..)
GTA is not the only game on earth.
True Crime series were really underrated.Despite the bugs(I barely had any) they were really fun.
GTA hand-to-hand sucks in general(Improved but slow-paced on IV.)(GTA Game with best combat: Vice City Stories(grapples,snapping people's necks,all epic)
I don't see what people see in Gran Turismo,which is considered a realistic driving simulator but actually it is unrealistic and cars can barely make a corner without going out of the track.
I feel Burnout is underrated and more people should know about it.

FIFA is the only sports game people play. @Street Mix How can you not think Half Life 1 and 2 are one of the best shooters of this generation?

[baptiste]

Theres nothing wrong with recent incarnations of Call of Duty.

[GTASAIDEAMASTER]

Except the really tiny campaign(wait,there's a campaign?),recicled weapons and stuff and barely improved graphics.
To me,CoD died after World at War.

You have your opinion though.

CoD died after CoD4. Some might say after CoD2.

Anyway, my opinion is that I think that 90% of the games people claim that suck, don't, and those people have problems that make it impossible to enjoy something unless it's exactly what they want. I believe doctors call it a stick up your ass.

Ezio Auditore da Firenze isn't that interesting or likeable a character. Yeah he's alright, marginally better than Altair, but certainly not interesting enough to warrant buying the same game two more times to continue his story.

The Godfather games were good.

The Late Goodbye song in Max Payne 2 was terrible.

GTA IV is vastly superior to San Andreas.

Mass Effect 3's ending wasn't that bad.

Michael Ironside couldn't even prevent the Splinter Cell games being boring.

With the exception of Return To Castle Wolfenstein, COD1 and WaW, WWII games were sh*t and there were far too many of them.

The N64 was good, Nintendo should have called it a day and went out on a high note.

Resident Evil 5 was never racist.

The Modern Warfare games are awesome.

This picture isn't attractive or appealing:

Wow that sure is a controversial opinion to hold on the internet. Very brave.

As for myself, apparently I'm unusual among gaming nerds for thinking that all first party Nintendo games are childish. It covers all facets: gameplay, design and aesthetics. The fact that they never introduce new IPs doesn't help either. We must be ironically close to Mario No.64 by now.

[m8son]

A few more
- World War II games are better than modern.
- Naughty Dog messed up Uncharted 3's multiplayer.
- Max Payne 3's multiplayer is extremely fun.
- Crysis 2 was really fun and I cannot wait for 3.
- LA Noire should have had multiplayer. Even if it was just co op.

[xI Jakk Ix]

Fallout New Vegas was better than Fallout 3.
