Just thinking casually now about games I have generally tried a bit and not enjoyed.
nb. I don’t really care if you disagree, because this is just a cathartic exercise for me.
- All console FPS. I’ve tried Halo, CoD, Resistance, and Killzone. I even finished some of them. I keep trying them because they’re popular I guess.
- Pretty much all the big Playstation 2 era action games. Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid, God of War, Splinter Cell, the kind of ‘epic’ games that waste my time attempting to create some kind of story to wrap around the (now worn out) gameplay.
- Zelda. Loved the Gameboy and SNES games. Not got on with any other one since despite repeated attempts. Too much padding and old content, just for 5% of new stuff. Needs a total reinvention, and I don’t think Motion+ controls are the answer.
- Any RPGs that bear any resemblance to WoW (not WoW itself). I feel that no matter what they do, they cannot make me feel like I’d not be better off just playing WoW instead. Possibly because mostly the stories are completely pointless and terrible. Exemptions are given to handheld games, I can play those in certain situations where I can’t play WoW.
- 99.5% of iOS content. This includes the big headline games like Angry Birds and Flight Control. I just don’t get it, there are plenty of pick up and play games on normal handhelds that offer so much more in the short and long term.
There is plenty of other stuff I’ve missed as well. I think it’s possible that I hate videogames.
