Unpopular Gaming Opinions

[Slothy]

Yeah, I've generally preferred the games that let me explore a lot more. Stuff like Mario 3, or my personal favourite 2D Mario, Mario World were so chock full of things to discover that I honestly enjoyed that more than beating the game. Mario 64 was the same way. The first star in most levels is pretty obvious, but there were very few that you couldn't go off the rails to find right away instead. Plus there were some really cool parts like the clock level where jumping in at specific times on the clock affected the speed things moved in the level, making some stars harder or easier, and the level which let you transition from big to small versions of it. There was a hell of a lot of variety in that game too.

So for me, I've been left feeling like the 3D Mario games got it right the first time as far as what I wanted, and since then they've just been gradually spiraling into a more linear version I have no real interest in anymore. The only fairly linear Mario I actually like is the original Super Mario Bros. but I think that's because it not only nailed the movement mechanics perfectly, but it could be quite challenging. I don't really even get that from the newer 3D games which are too easy, and sometimes a pain to control with the changing perspectives.

Pokemon is the best rpg ever made.
All for one was by far the worst RC game ever made.
Dead space was better than the sequel.

Oh wait, unpopular.\
One moment, let me grab my list.

1. FF4 is one of the weakest entries in the series.
2. FF6, while enjoyable, was actually a very average game that does not deserve half the praise it gets.
3. The nintendo ds version of viva pinata is the best version, and is actually one of the ten best games on the system
4. The phoenix wright series is entirely overrated, consisting of only extremely easy to decipher scenarios and childishly easy gameplay
5. FF 12 is the third best ff, behind 9 and 7, and was easily one of the five best games on the ps2.
6. Plants vs zombies sucks. A five year old can beat it on their first try without losing once. WHile everyone here will agree the hundreds of remakes are unnecessary, I will go as far as to say the game has little to merit its existence in the first place, with many better td games available on the internet for free.
7. Spyro, a new beginning on ps2 was actually a good game.
8. slenderman is a stupid, pointless, and extremely easy game with the same horror level as saw.
9. Peter Jacksons King Kong the game is scarier than dead space.
10. Anyone who has ever said anything along the lines of, I enjoyed playing two worlds needs to be shot out of a canon into the sun.
11. Super mario 64 was terrible, handled like a one legged moose trying to operate a series of cranes at the same time, and added little to the series.
12. the best shooter on the psp was 3rd birthday.
13. tactics ogre has no comparison with ff tactics.
14. FF TA2 was better than FFt
15. grandia sucks.
16. monster hunter sucks.
17. warriors orochi 2 was one of the best games ever made for a handheld, falling only behind crisis core.
18. psp was the best handheld ever
19. secret agent clank was better than size matters.
20. DR who games are awful.
21. metal slug is awful.
22. DW Next, despite the praise it recieved from critics, is terrible, adds nothing except better looks, removing free mode, and completely removes the rpg feel given by previous dw games.
23. MGS is terrible, the gameplay is terrible, the story is terrible.
24. There has never been a good resident evil game
25. littlebigplanet is terrible, although addictive.

to be continued.

I really liked King Kong. Great fun.

[Skyblade]

Pokemon is the best rpg ever made.

Chrono Trigger is better.

5. FF 12 is the third best ff, behind 9 and 7, and was easily one of the five best games on the ps2.

Yeah, no. One of the worst. Probably better than 2, maybe better than 3, but lower than the most of the rest.

12. the best shooter on the psp was 3rd birthday.

Yeah, it's better than... Wait, there were other shooters on the PSP?

14. FF TA2 was better than FFt

So was FFTA. In fact, the series has been improving steadily.

17. warriors orochi 2 was one of the best games ever made for a handheld, falling only behind crisis core.

Considering how bad Crisis Core was, that's not saying a lot.

[Shattered Dreamer]

HC, I agree with your number 5 but your number 23 makes me want to slap your face

[LunarWeaver]

Diablo III is my favorite Diablo

[maybee]

Pokemon is the best rpg ever made.

What Pokemon ? Black and White is pretty good. ~It doesn't matter if your black or white~/ Michael Jackson Moonwalks.

1. FF4 is one of the weakest entries in the series.
2. FF6, while enjoyable, was actually a very average game that does not deserve half the praise it gets.

Let me load my shotgun. ( If I had one )

4. The phoenix wright series is entirely overrated, consisting of only extremely easy to decipher scenarios and childishly easy gameplay.

I just fainted....

5. FF 12 is the third worst ff, behind 2 and 13-2, and was easily one of the five worst games on the ps2.

Fixed.

6. Plants vs zombies sucks. A five year old can beat it on their first try without losing once. WHile everyone here will agree the hundreds of remakes are unnecessary, I will go as far as to say the game has little to merit its existence in the first place, with many better td games available on the internet for free.

Agree. One of my best friends hyped it up like it was the best thing ever made and it's just some repetitive gameplay and nothing new.

8. slenderman is a stupid, pointless, and extremely easy game with the same horror level as saw.

I've never played it so I can't judge but I sort of agree with you this one. It looks like judging videos by Youtube people just hype it up and act scared for attention and more views. So like people use it to attention seek so they get more views up on the Youtube counter. It seems like it anyways.

11. Super mario 64 was terrible, handled like a one legged moose trying to operate a series of cranes at the same time, and added little to the series.

Isn't it better to praise the plumber for trying to step away from the cliche format of from going to Mario 1 like gameplay to just Mario 1 like gameplay ? I mean just look at the newest Mario game on the 3DS, it's just Mario 1 again just with better graphics.

21. metal slug is awful.
23. MGS is terrible, the gameplay is terrible, the story is terrible.
24. There has never been a good resident evil game

What are you smoking ? Because I don't want some.

[Pete for President]

23. MGS is terrible, the gameplay is terrible, the story is terrible.
25. littlebigplanet is terrible, although addictive.

You are such a Negativitron.

[Goldenboko]

[unpopular]I typically just enjoy the game I play and not try to over-analyze what is better than it. [/unpopular]

[Del Murder]

For these to work you actually need to have that opinion, Gobo.

[Loony BoB]

A very large amount of opinions given in this thread are what I consider to be popular opinions, not unpopular opinions. Some of the below might fall in line with that, so yeah.

Final Fantasy VI - Boring story. Opera scene is meh.
Final Fantasy X - Tidus, Yuna and Seymour make this game close to unplayable for me.
Final Fantasy XIII - Great characters, good game.
Square-Enix - Still capable of making great games (this is not to say they ARE making them).
Oblivion - Not worth your money.
GTA IV - Unengaging and uninteresting.
JRPGs - Still better than WRPGs.
Pokémon since it's release - Not worth it, better off just re-purchasing the original.
Resident Evil since it turned FPS - Rubbish.
Wolf Kanno - Wrong Well, not always, but it's fun to put this in.
First Person Shooters - Not even close to as good as other genres.
Minecraft - Severely lacking in longevity.

[Slothy]

GTA IV - Unengaging and uninteresting.

I think from now on (or the next five minutes at least) I'll give you a pass on your terrible FF opinions you listed just because of this.

GTAIV is easily the worst GTA I've played. Probably the worst sandbox game I've played in years actually. Mind you, it has to compete with the likes of Just Cause 2, so obviously it will be found lacking. Ironically, we can thank Square-Enix for that one.

[Goldenboko]

For these to work you actually need to have that opinion, Gobo.

Actually for the most part with me that opinion is true now.

Agreed. Which brings up the next point:

I couldn't care less about GTAV.
