"What games did everyone else rate... but you hate?"

I dont just mean games that sold really well... but games that everyboday rated as amazing, setting new standards, etc...

SimCity (any)
Populous (1/2 & Beginning)...

The Resident Evils, theyre all great particularly number 2 onwards... I love them,
although if your unsure if youll like them or not. Then Rent before you buy, If your a dedicated gamer then you may even complete the Resi game over the 2 night rental period!

Resident Evil. Maybe I`m just not grown up enough, but so far I haven`t bought a single RE game.

Perhaps you've actually MATURED too much to get one...

My friend Rob has Sonic Adventure which he hates, he loves the original Sonic games but cant stand Sonics new Dreamcast Outings. To be honest I sort of agree with him the original Sonics are more fun to play!

Road Rash 3D has to be the only game on the PSX where the Megadrive version was much more playable. (I even suspect that the Megadrive version had better graphics too).

This game must go down as the worst conversion in history, yet the gaming press were at fault for hyping it so much that I went and bought it.

Lesson: Ignore the press, listen to your mates on SR.

In what way do you mean 'gay'?

I know nothing of this game, so I'm wondering what kind of 'gay' it is!

It just sounds so funny to describe a game as 'gay'!

I think that should have been it's slogan though:

Delta Force - It's gay!

So....is there anyone here who DID like virtua fighter?

I've never really liked Virtua Fighter either. I remember practising for awhile, stringing moves together, etc. Then someone came over, hit the buttons and beat me, didn't even know what the hell they were doing. After that i decided to try it myself - just picked the fastest character Pai and hammered the punch button as fast as i could and hey presto - never been beaten since !

Thats also including people that think themselves pretty good too ! Overall it must be one of the worst fighting games i've ever played with no rewards for practising.

Delta Force - It's gay!
Final Fantasy 8 - poor.
Deus Ex - average, or less
Tiberian Sun - Pathetic.

I'll think of more, gimme some time.

I hated the Virtua Fighting series to, it just didnt seem as good as Streetfighter2 or Tekken!

I like Dead or Alive, although a similar game, it just seems to play better than Virtua Fighter.

Didn't like Final Fantasy 7. Rather irritating turn based combat system. I've seen paper and pencil RPG's with more interesting combat than that.

I hated the Virtua Fighter series, was it 2 buttons that you used? Slow, unresponsive blocky characters moving in a rather jerky fashion. Not much correlation between what you press and what your character does. A friend of mine once payed £1 to play Virta Fighter 2 in the arcade. A miniute later he'd lost.....he said "Who the hell was I?".
