What are some games that you like, but pretty much everyone else hates.


I'll go first...


I liked Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness

I always liked Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace...y'know that third person action/adventure game.

Not only was it the first game to introduce me to relatively realistic light saber action but it was also pretty sweet looking for its time and the games that were exposed to me then :D

Despite what I feel about it, a lot of people seem to be under the opinion that it sucks. I was appalled when I saw that Gamespot gave it a 4.3. :o

But I still like it :)

I enjoyed the DIG.

I also loved CMI's graphics, which is considered a sin in the eyes of some MI1 and 2 purists :rolleyes:

I personally think that of all the MI games, CMI has the best graphics. MI1 and MI2 aren't so bad, but with crude pixeling, the age shows clearly ;) As for MI4, eh, it was okay, but I have to say CMI was brilliant (IMHO). Quite beautifully done. :7

I caught that hype too, and purchased the game. Biggest waste of money of my whole PC gaming career. It was an 'OK' game to play through... but damn, what a short and unfulfilling little game. Worst LucasArts game ever.

I'm perhaps overly fond of Mario Teaches Typing, I must admit.

Oh man, I remember that game. Can't even imagine how long ago that must have been. I had a friggin ball with it though.

I like Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine, though I haven't played it in ages. And I enjoyed The Phantom Menace for a while as well, but I really dislike it now.

Stupid Invaders - it is a very stupid game, but I enjoyed it the first time around... I stress the word 'first' doubly by bringing your attention back to it with an extra sentence.

Morrowind is good too.

I really like Morrowind. Shame on the non believers! Also Outcast, which isnt so much that people hate it, more that they dont remember it :D.

Wow. How anyone can enjoy that game anytime around is beyond me. I found absolutely nothing of entertaining value, and just when you think it can only get better, it gets worse...

I guess mine is... Britneys dance Beat :o
I beat you all there, didn't I...

I have read it, actually. Great review of a sad game. Stupid Invaders has got to be the most stupid(duh), frustrating and pointless game I have ever played. And sadly, I own it. :sad:
I especially like this line from your review:
The one thing I don’t understand about this game is, since the developers were honest enough to admit that the game was stupid, couldn't they have gone the whole hog and called it Boring Irritating Abysmal Invaders? :D

now I'm just talking rubbish, but when I got that game for almost free, I enjoyed the 5 minutes I looked at the front of the box, and when I started the game.

I had hoped they could've made it even playable, but it's quite horridly filled with bugs etc.

Ooo, can I buy it? Can I?

I really want to play it ever since I read that review Tamara wrote. I wanna see if this game can top the Crystal Key, a DreamCatcher game which is so bad that I won't even let my worst enemy play it. :crazy:

I enjoy Escape from Monkey Island, and consider it a good MI game, which is a big no-no according to certain MI "purists".

I liked EFMI, in fact I think it's the best of the four, with CMI second.

Heck, you can take it! But I don't think you should have any problem finding it on the net, and besides, I might take some extra money after all.
You really should be paid to play that game! :D

I simple love ever single one of the Legacy Of Kain games.

But I guess most people think that only the Soul Reaver ones are any good.

Heh, that's my favourite line :D

erwin: Stupid Invaders is bad, but if you want to try something totally dismal, the true bottom of the heap, I told ya, ya gotta try Time Machine .. now that will make Crystal Key look like Gabriel Knight. I couldn't even play enough of it to review it, I just bailed out .. that bad.

Not only according to purists. ;)

But enough about that, it's already been discussed way too many times.

The Original Blood Omen is one of my favourite games. I also like Spycraft and Daggerfall
