Classic titles that you just can't stand?

DK Country was garbage to me. Mediocre and the start of when graphics started mattering more than gameplay.

But, but, the music!!!

[XxHennersXx]

But, but, the music!!!

NO!

I can keep going with games I HATE. Mortal Kombat, Virtua Fighter, Tekken. I hate all of them. Every Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior. Goldeneye 007. Perfect Dark. Also terrible.

Semi related - I love Banjo Kazooie but eventually it becomes just "FIND ALL THE THINGS" and I stop playing.

Jet Force Gemini was amazing - great shooter I was looking forward to SO much. And I loved it - until you get to the part where it tells you to go re do every level and find all the bears.

DK 64 was literally PLAY EVERY LEVEL 6 TIMES AND FIND ALL THE THINGS

[CandieC]

I absolutely HATE Resident Evil 4 -5 but i absolutely LOVED 0,1,2,3,Code Veronica go figuer lol. Also i hated all the Halos , MUD , Doreamon 64 , just about all facebook games , every final fantasy game not on the snes, i could really go on forever :P

Hear that? That's great music coming from a great game. I could list more great songs from the game, but that would require me to list the entire soundtrack. Donkey Kong Country kicked ass. Thinking about the time I spent playing DKC as a kid reminds me of how much I miss the golden years of Rareware. Why Microsoft, WHY!?!

[APE]

DKC was awesome as a kid. So many secrets to find and the challenge of 100%ing a save was big back before the internet took off and walkthroughs were free.

The graphics were just the icing on the cake for all I cared.

Tomb Raider, embarrassing and cringe worthy? Why? Because of her monster cleavage and short shorts?

Yeah, pretty much exactly that. Everyone seemed to go crazy because there was a WOMAN in a VIDEO GAME even though her character was terrible.

And how were the 90's embarrassing and cringe worthy for video games?

Not all of the 90s, but the late 90s were, for a few reasons, including character designs like this:
and the de facto death of 2D and the birth of shitty 3D, which meant a ton of ugly, horribly designed 3D games that are practically unplayable today. Even many of the games that were praised back then have aged worse than games less than 20 years old should have. I dare you to play Tomb Raider or Syphon Filter today.

Yeah, pretty much exactly that. Everyone seemed to go crazy because there was a WOMAN in a VIDEO GAME even though her character was terrible.

I always hated Tomb Raider, even in the 90's it's Step forward, step back, turn around and jump controls annoyed me.

But it gives us stuff like this




So I'm not going to complain

I think the guy behind her has been following her for some time now.

I hate, HATE HATE HATE, Bomberman.

It became a forbidden word at my place for a while; you couldn't even mention Bomberman without making me angry. Even the basic music of it makes me angry just hearing it.

Yet one of my favourite PS1 games is Silent Bomber. Go figure.

Also, the Zelda games on N64. So, SO overrated. I just cannot even stand playing them.
