I can see how this works. Instead of favorite games I would list games I want to like but can't. Generally because of gameplay reasons. Like Trails in the Sky. Or the first Uncharted game. Likable characters and fascinating story with questionable gameplay. And if anyone is unfamiliar, the first Uncharted game hadn't quite gotten it as far as gunplay was concerned, especially when considering actual hordes of enemies

Lost Odyssey, possibly Heavenly Sword, and most Fire Emblem games since I hate just having battles and cut scenes without down time
