Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

BF3 is still broken on the PC.

Nowhere close to its console counterparts, I'm assuming.

I beg to differ.

So, those who call BF3 a "Buggy, broken mess" just don't have the PC to run it.

It's like trying to use a potato as a steering wheel for a car. Of course it won't work well.

The flying tank at the end was a nice touch.
As I understand it, many of the bugs and exploits have since been patched. But there was a lot of them.

The two I encountered the most were the random falling through maps and the scary as hell body stretch thing.
I really don't think it's hardware. That was definitely programming and software. This wasn't just limited to PCs.
I'm honestly shocked you haven't encountered anything. It was a pretty big deal a while ago.

Blame EA for rushing the game not dice.
EA the money grubbing b*stard they are rush the game just so they compete with Modern warfare 3.
The game was completed at the time but EA who prefer money over their customers rushed the debugging and polishing process.

Amnesia is a happy and silly game, in my opinion.

I honestly don't care who's at fault. I just know I didn't like it.
Haha.

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

After the Oracles, I was initially disappointed with every Zelda game I played (WW, TP, ST, SS, though I haven't finished SS).

Portal 2 is more fun and more difficult than Portal 1.

ALttP has great replay value and is fun, but compared to other Zelda games, it's kind of boring.

Zelda's developer need to make more serious stories and characters, making the games altogether more believable and perhaps even "darker".

Okami > Wind Waker, Okami > Twilight Princess. However, TP's dungeons are probably better than any one thing in Okami.

MGS: The Twin Snakes > MGS1.

Brawl can only completely outclass Melee when a mod is added that can make it like Melee. Melee's physics engine makes fighting in it more fun than in Brawl.

New Super Mario Bros. (DS) is boring and has a pathetic soundtrack (both in quantity and quality of tracks).

Bioshock isn't nearly as good as everyone else thinks (I found it extremely difficult).

Metroid Prime 2 is just as good as MP1 except for the uneven difficulty.

Majora's Mask is the best Zelda (though I haven't played FS, FSA, or PH, and I've only barely played SS).

Left 4 Dead 1 feels better and more polished than L4D2, putting content aside. So, in a certain sense, it's more fun to play.

Golden Sun 2 > Golden Sun 1 > Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. DD was far too easy and annoying. I also dislike the 3D chibi look and the sound effects.

The Witcher 1's combat is not boring in the slightest.

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

My only problem with Golden Sun DD was boss fights. (Though not being able to "turn off" the eclipse thing was a little bit dissapointing.)

The rest of the game was ♥♥♥♥ing awesome, and just as good as the first two in my opinion.

GS2 > GS1 seems fairly controversial, though I admit that my comments on DD really aren't. I just thought I'd include them as reasons for putting it at the end (which position probably also isn't controversial).

Ah, and it may be but the main board I go too (/v/) generally has the same view that GS2>GS1.

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

GTA 4 is an incredibly bland and boring game with terrible graphics, even for the time. I mean look at halo3!
Reach could of been good if the fanbase let it be.
Red Dead is one of the best games ever made.
Bad Company 2 had better and more fun map design then bf3.
I've started to lose faith in Zelda after SS.
Castlevania Harmony of Despair is actually pretty fun.
Galaxy 1 and 2 are the worst 3d marios respectively.
ACR and Brotherhood were both better then 2 and 1.
Bioshock >>>>>>>Bioshock 2
Gears 1 + 2 are mediocre, but 3 is great.
Devs need to stop tacking on pointless multiplayer onto there games, and if they are, for the love of god don't add multiplayer related achievements(looking at you bioshock2 and AC).

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

Call of Duty 3 is better than Modern Warfare 3.

Wind Waker is an overrated game.

Halo 4 is my most anticipated game now.

Pokemon G/S/C are stupid, but Pokemon B/W are awesome.

Hard? You literally can't die unless you turn the vita chambers off. Even then, as long as you use plasmids wisely with your tonics the enemies don't stand a chance.

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

My biggest turn off with Bioshock wasn't really the game iteslf. It was everyone that played it.
They kept hyping it up as some sort of amazing horror game. When I finally got to play it, I was so disappointed that it wasn't even trying to be a horror game that I couldn't play it.

I've been thinking about picking them up pretty soon, after school is done though. Both games are only like, 2.50. So it's not like it's a big waste if I still don't like them.

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

I prefer RPG's centered around progression by building your character through stats and actual skill at the gameplay, even if it means simplifying the storytelling, over RPG's that spend more time driving itself forward with story and characters, sacrificing any kind of particularly engaging or visceral sense of gameplay. Ergo, Monster Hunter and 'Souls are my favorite RPG franchises, and I find games like Persona to be way overrated.

That's a joke right? I mean GTA 4's graphics are honestly the best I've seen on a home console. Hell I'm currently in the middle of a new playthrough and am still blown away at times. Have you even played the game?

Re: Your "Controversial" Gaming Opinion

Is that a joke?


Crysis 2 immediately comes to mind.
Or Battlefield 3, Dead Space 2, etc.
GTA 4 isn't the greatest looking game by comparison to some more recent games.

Final Fantasy XIII has better graphics alone.
