Videogames you love, videogames you hate thread

A longer game doesn't automatically make it good, but if a really good game is really short, that's not really great either.

I never got to beat either BK game, but they were great AND had good length.

Out of curiosity, why'd you quote this post too? I already explained what I meant by that, I wasn't criticizing what you said or anything, I agree with it. BK and BT were great games. I liked getting the Jiggies and the Jinjos and stuff.

Glitch when I double quote, it'll go onto my next post sometimes, its fucked.

I dunno, I was never really a big fan of Banjo and Kazooie games. They were kinda stupid to me when I was a kid so I never really go into them. "fighting carrots? uhg thats dumb ~plays harvest moon 64 forever~"

I guess you think Mario is dumb because of the fighting mushrooms.

I didn't think goombas looked like Mushrooms back then, even so, I used to rent Bomberman 64 much more then I did Super Mario 64.

Also Flannel, think of it as a 10 year old would be saying it. (As most of them can't even pull off sarcasm) That was my thoughts on it as a kid (My very exact thoughts), and I used to play Harvest Moon 64 more then anything else. (Majora's mask, all I did was keep getting Kafei and Anju to marry eachother. I felt bad if I didn't do that. Also Flannel, instead of calling people out for HEY THAT SOUNDS SARCASTIC either report it or PM the post to me/them and let them know in private. It is getting on my nerves to see every other post of yours calling someone how for how they word things.)

[Kriven]

I love the Kafei and Anju scene as well. It makes me all warm and tingly inside

[NO Body]

Speaking of harvest moon, as much as i like the games there's something that always bothers me that the Snes game had but the others don't anymore.
i know its a silly thing but it's still bothersome.

in the Snes one you could dig & plant pretty much where ever you wanted on your farm & place fences & stuff almost anywhere (aside from roads & houses) it was a fun type of freedom.
but the later games only gave you a square in the middle of your farm for planting XP
its not game breaking but it's not as Fun & free.

i cant really think of games i completely "hate" as much as think of annoying things IN good games i hate.

I like this.

But really when I had this game I played it all the time. Throwing people off the battle field as ghosts, can't get much better than that.

And then if you read the rest of my post it'll tell you the exact reasons why.. -.-

and i read the rest of the post. none of those are satisfying reasons and dont have actual bearing on quality. in fact a lot of those things were actually executed horribly - like mumbo. and good portion of them still pertained to length or amount of content; more content does not equal higher quality. a game must have enough content, of course, but it shouldn't be overloaded. a game that is good enough will earn replay value by being entertaining enough to play through again, not by just giving you more nonsensical things to do, or by padding things out more than they have to be.

lol

Humba Wumba served no purpose other than hentai-fodder. Mumbo should have been transforming people again.

[Maxpphire]

Also Koopaul, You actually really did fight Carrots (and apparently Onions) in that game. Goombas didn't look like straight up mushrooms with eyes.




Also I have a dislike for Final Fantasy 7. I never bothered to play much of it because I found it boring, like I hadn't even gotten to meet Sephiroth yet in game but after all the stuff I've seen from the fan base, I also don't think I'd want to either.

[TomGuycott]

Really when they introduce Sephiroth it feels like it turns into a completely different game.. namely because it kind of does, you don't get access to the world map until you find out about him. I also feel the same way about FF8, it got boring and I just never finished it. I already know what happens at the end, so...

FF9, though, that stuff's the shit.

You still didn't give any reasons as why you dislike the game so much.

Rare's designs are sometimes bizarrely unimaginative. Not rarely, they simply put a pair of eyes in an object and says it's a character.

eyed boulders

eyed carrots

eyed cauliflowers

eyed ice cubes

eyed mines

and this trend can be observed in other Rare games, such as those steel blocks in Conker: Bad Fur Day.

[Boo]

Those designs are what make it so awesome haha.

[Koopaul]

Toppers, Bawls, and Colliwobbles are supposed to look pathetic since they are used as practice for the bear and bird duo. Quarries shouldn't have even been enemies since they were just there to teach you how to smash stuff with your Beak Barge move.

Shrapnel actually had a good design since you know exactly what to expect from them. Right Bob-ombs?

Chinkers are kind of boring I guess.

Yes I fucking know all their names!

[Gors]

Yes I fucking know all their names!

it's not so hard considering you can right-click the image and see its properties

[Rakia]

Well... I wouldn't have done that.
I would've just said the ice cube, or the carrot.
So he probably knew all the names.
