Don't know who made the first thread, but I'm making the second. Post your opinions about games that you're sure others will find unpopular. I'll begin:
- Metal Slug 3 is a PIECE OF SHIT. It's like Sonic CD: super-freaking-bad, yet everyone loves it for some reason. It has multiple paths. WHOOPDEE FREAKIN' DOO. I can fall asleep playing this bore-fest. It's tedious, and started the "let's make the series Battletoads-cheap" trend that 4 and 5 continued. 3 is better than 4 or 5, but that's it.
- Metal Slug 6 is WAAAAAY better than the rest of the series. That's right. You heard me. Unique character properties, good pacing in the levels, good bosses, all around fun. Way better than shitty, shitty 3. And a little better than 2 or X. Plus, it's the only game in the Anthology that doesn't lag so bad it's nearly unplayable. Though it still lags a little.
- Yes, the Anthology lags, at least on PS2. If you aren't noticing it, TRY LOOKING HARDER because it's there.
- Sonic CD sucks. I say this like once every three months. But it's true. It's the second-worst Sonic game ever made, right behind Sonic 360/PS3. Sonic Team can suck my balls. If I ever get the money I'm buying Sonic. As in the rights to the characters and games. So I can make one that doesn't fucking suck.
- To paraphrase Viscant: Sonic 2 had it right. We've been going in the wrong direction ever since. Add this: Sonic 2 wasn't made entirely by Sonic Team. That should tell you something right there.
- Final Fantasy 7 was overrated, as was 12.
- Square-Enix is shit.
- Vyse is the best main character in an RPG ever. Ever. Cloud doesn't even come close.
- A fun and competitive 3D Street Fighter is possible. Just because all current attempts have sucked doesn't mean they should stop trying.
- No, people aren't saying your favorite game is a piece of shit just because they suck at it. Chances are if 95% of the world says it is a piece of shit, it's because it's a piece of shit. This is directed to you Sonic fanboys out there.
- Kirby Superstar was the SNES's best game. Yes, I've played Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island, Illusion of Gaia, and (in all likelihood) any other game you care to mention.
- Doom wasn't a corridor shooter. It was an arcade action twitch game that spawned corridor shooters. Doom plays nothing like what it preceded. That's why people still play it and make levels for it.
- Metroid Prime isn't a corridor shooter. It's an exploration-RPG game that just so happens to put you in a first-person perspective, using guns, in corridor-heavy environments.
- The Wiimote sucks. Except for WarioWare. Actually the Wii sucks in general. And I love every other Nintendo system I own.
- Ocarina of Time wasn't as good as Wind Waker. Yeah, I said it. Wind Waker's only blemish was the Triforce hunt.
- No game, past or present, has as cool a final boss battle as Wind Waker. Gears of War kinda-sorta comes close.
- Gears of War is 20 times better than any shitty Japanese game you care to mention.
- Shmups are, at their basest level, about memorization. I hope that shmups become more random and promote more reactivity instead of Dance Dance Revolution twitch. Geometry Wars is a move in the right direction. So was the meteor level in Gradius V.
- Astroboy is the best GBA title you've never played. It's by Treasure and is very Gunstar Super Heroes-ish. Find this game NOW.
- Double Dragon Advance is the second best GBA title you've never played. Give it five minutes and tell me it wasn't worth every penny, I dare you.
- Metal Gear sucks. I just care for the story. On the inverse, Snake is awesome and makes Smash Bros. more awesome just by being in it.
- The American Zelda cartoon was FUCKING GREAT regardless of what otaku Japanophiles believe. Cocky ass mercenary Link > never talks game Link.
- Captain N... was mostly shit.
![:rofl:]( ":rofl:")
But the good episodes were stellar. And yes, the same Link appears here, and other than some initial whining, he's as cool as ever.
- Pichu w/ goggles better be in Brawl.
- See that dude in my AV? That's Rei, the coolest Capcom character ever made. He got the shaft in the game he was in... so he better be the star of MvC3
![:rofl:]( ":rofl:")
(Insert El Salvador reference here)
- Symphony of the Night was not the best Castlevania game.
- Super Castlevania 4 was better than SotN. /braces for impact
- Megaman X8 is the best X game. Ignore Gigavolt Man-o-War's stage, though. The rest of the game is pure sex.
