Games you hated but finished anyway

[Markus. D]

All the official neverwinter campaigns (not including the extra premium modules and player made modules)... yick.

Oogie's Revenge... if the nostalgia wasn't so awesome, I would have thrown away the trashy DMC rip-off as soon as I had completed the first level.

Guild Wars Prophecies/Factions ... Both are terribly constructed storylines and have poor cutscenes in comparison to the other two installments available (NF and EotN).

Prophecies: Poor protagonist, easy to beat, the old school AI still lingers inducing frustration, worst protagonist ever, lack of any actual... heroes?

Factions: Rushed world design, unfinished plot left to be told through lore (again rushed), half the game dumps you in this gosh ugly city (mind you, Jade Sea is awesome), cutscenes missing something (russssshed) and Shiro is meh.

Final Fantasy X
X-2
Crisis Core

Once I finish Revenant Wings, we can add it to the list.

There are some gray area ones as well. Titles where I like one element but not the rest, for instance, I like the game part of Kingdom Hearts 2 but I hate its plot. I feel the same way about TA2. Great gameplay but main plot and cast kinda fall short.

Final Fantasy X for me as well...but the story was so cheesy and bad that it was almost funny. I did like a few parts but wow, and people say FF12 sucked yet vehemently defend this piece of dreck. The music was good though I'll give it that much.

Also,

Final Fantasy IV

Get out.

XII's music was one of its major bad points. There were some really good tracks but most of it was forgetable at best. The only thing that made up for EVERYTHING ELSE was the gameplay.

I've endured a few races in Mario Kart through to the finish. Does that count? That's basically the entire game right there.

Normally I tend to just stay away from games I don't like.

Finally. It's good to know I'm not the only one who thought FFX's sorry excuse for a story was humorous.

Yeah the music was fitting to the scenery but did feel a bit weak in some parts. But overall I actually liked the music quite a bit, especially the boss battle music.

@SomethingBig: I think I like you, mister.

[SomethingBig]

Aw.

I'm guessing I'm about halfway through the Force Unleashed and with each mission I do, the controls seem to get worse and worse. I've died a couple times, simply because of the terrible controls. But still, I continue. Bring on the pain!

Xenosaga Episode I. I liked the story and the cutscenes. Not so much the gameplay. I didn't even last more than a few hours into the second one before I just said screw it.

Same thing here.

Couldn't get into episode 2, those zones pissed me off but it did add a level of challenge at least. Still was pretty stupid imo.

I didn't hate it but I wasn't really feeling Arc the Lad: ToTS, the game overall was pretty fun but the whole thing just felt phoned in, but I guess I can't complain since I bought it for next to nothing.

[Avarice-ness]

None, I have to completely like a game to complete it.

[Crimson]

Meh, only games that really comes to mind would be GTA 3 since i've long gone off it and Star Wars Episode 3 (PS2) for being such a retardedly easy with a shyte AI game.

This man speaks the truth, nice story, BAD soundtrack, only track I like is Esper Battle.


Come back Uematsu! All is forgiven!

Final Fantasy IV

....Seriously?

[SomethingBig]

Sorry, Uematsu works for Squaresoft Mistwalker now.

[The Space Pope]

BAD soundtrack, only track I like is Esper Battle.

You and I could never be.

The regular boss battle was better

[Wolf Kanno]

Actually, he's independent now. Though he collaborates with his old friend Sakeguchi

[SomethingBig]

Sakaguchi and Uematsu forever.
