Agreed on Braid; I can't say I ever beat it but I put a few hours into it which is more than I thought I would.

TWO DAYS UNTIL THE SEQUEL
Freelancer. When my parents gave it to me I thought, Oh boy another crappy rippoff of something.
Then I played it while my Gameboy was charging one day and was enlightened.
It was like the holy grail of gaming.

same story as hypo
i got it and i wa slike 'ugh i wanted star wars dark forces'
Yoshi's Story. I didn't think that much of Yoshi back then and didn't expect the game to be good at all. It ended up being crazy fun and I couldn't stop playing until I finished it.
A more recent one would have to be Final Fantasy X-2. Everyone kept saying how horrible it was and talking about how it was the beginning of the end of Final Fantasy (I know some melodramatic people, let me tell you), but when I sat down to play it I didn't find it to be that bad. Campy maybe, but not the god-awful game I was expecting it to be going in. X-2 does not live up to the hype of its haters.
Jade Cocoon 2. The dialogue is heavy-handed, the story is rock simple, the characters are annoying, its plagued with various bugs, and its level design is uninspired. But godamm there is just something so engaging about the combat and leveling system in this game that absolutely hooks me. Call it a Pokemon clone all you want, I wasted untold hours of my teens on this game.
Final Fight Streetwise.
This game was panned because of its urban setting and a twist that takes place about 3/4 of the way through which turns the game into your character, Kyle, beating up on a bunch of drug-addled zombies. Despite that and the gratuitous, in-your-face "badass" crap, the game is actually very solid. I still wish we'd gotten Seven Sons instead.
Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

I used to look down my nose at MMORPGs. Now I'm usually playing at least one with some regularity.
There is no signature here. Move along.
I'm trying hard to find a game that I played that I didn't think would be fun but turned out to be fun anyway. I think I'm too conservative when it comes to trying new games. Perhaps I am only playing games that I am pretty confident that I will like?

That just means you aren't buying enough Humble Bundles, in which you are bombarded with games that you had on intention of buying otherwise.
No, it means I have more games than I have time to play already, and can't really make enough time for even more games.

You can always make time for more games. Humble Bundles especially. There's a lot of hidden gems in those for a bargain price.
No sir, I can't. Not without sleeping less than 6 hours every day. That's not very smart when I work with what I do.
