Less hate it and more strongly dislike it:

Resident Evil 6 is a good lesson on how not to make a triple AAA title.

I don't know about that. Game's fine by itself.

It is however, THE example of how to alienate your fanbase by turning the core mechanics of your series into the exact opposite.

I got Destiny cheap.

 

[Mieu]

Final Fantasy VII spawned a nice looking CG movie.

 

[Reedirect]

Scarlet is one of the best bosses in any of the games.

I thought the fight was awful, but the design is absolutely superb.

 

[Mcdohl]

Pokemon X/Y had a cool gym leader boss fight song

 

[CharminUltra]

Killzone games sure are pretty.

 

[Son Of D]

Persona has some good songs.

 

[Whiteblade999]

Persona 3/4 had fantastic soundtracks.

Edit: Ninja'd I guess.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

Resident Evil 6 is really easy to make fun of. It can make the co-op pretty enjoyable.

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs has a fantastic title.

 

[freethoughtbubble]

I love it! Backhanded Compliments, the Thread.

 

[Brandon F]

Fallout 4 didn't set my PS4 on fire!

 

[Orin GA]

I got to kill Balio and Sunder in Breath of Fire 3

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

Bloodborne has cool looking creatures.

 

[Rhomega Beta]

Super Monkey Ball Adventure had some nice-looking environments.

 

[Ludger Kresnik]

Senran Kagura has Ikaruga, who is the best girl.

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

It's strange that the most hated games are ones that are generally considered good by most people.

 

[antitrop]

Final Fantasy VIII greatly improved upon the graphics of VII.

It's strange that the most hated games are ones that are generally considered good by most people.

The hate usually comes from expectations. You're not really gonna see shovelware garbage in this thread, if you already know the game is going to be shit going into it, you won't be disappointed enough to generate a real sense of hatred.

It's the ones that other people tell you are good or oddballs out in a series that you love that you get disappointed by and really end up hating.

I'm wondering what the top 5 games would be for someone who hates Civ 5

seems like a hard game to hate. Then again he has a only on Nintendo avatar :>

I didn't 'hate' it but vanilla stripped a lot of stuff out of 4 and it had some really wonky AI. There was a good amount of backlash from fans when it released. I understand the expacs have got the game to where it should be now though (I only played vanilla)

 

[sflufan]

Killzone: Shadow Fall cured my insomnia.

 

[ElectronicOldMen]

The twist near the beginning of Assassin's Creed 3 is genuinely really well done.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

The last of us has good voice acting.

 

[Wagram]

I like the plastic that encases the Fable disc.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

Not outright hate, but strongly dislike: the art style in Bioshock Infinite is exquisite. All the areas had wonderful vibes, especially the beach (plus the great Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" cover) and he the boardwalk (before the fight breaks out) were just beautiful.

 

[Mahonay]

Duke Nukem Forever, against all odds, actually got released.

 

[Dolobill]

I like the characters in the Mario Party games.

 

[Gnome Scat]

I don't hate it, but Destiny has a pretty great soundtrack.

 

[Elfforkusu]

NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams has pretty good music.

 

[Akiraptor]

Paper Mario: Sticker Star looked good for a handheld game.

 

[Psychoward]

Destiny has great gunplay

Alpha Protocol has the best character reactivity in a voiced RPG

Bioshock 1 had a really great setting even if it was underutilized - the twist was great as well.

Dead Space 3 had some cool space zero-g sections.

 

[Vilix]

Halo is great to play with friends.

 

[Squishy3]

Donte's design isn't a problem.

 

[d00d3n]

The Serious Sam games seem to be technically competent on PC. I hate everything else about them, though. What an awful idea to return to the monster closet roots of first person shooters, but add even more meaningless cannon fodder enemies. I hate the generic art. I hate the macho big guns thing. I hate the smugness of its fans, who call it out as something special, when it is clearly not.

 

[TemplaerDude]

The Uncharted games all look great.

 

[low-G]

Destiny sure does have a lot of players

 

[fargofallout]

Dragon Age: Inquisition looks exceptionally nice in certain areas. And there quite a few characters you can have in your party.

 

[piccio_ssl]

sunset overdrive had a great E3 cg trailer

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Xenoblade Chronicles X is a beautiful game with some really nice musical tracks.

Monster Hunter has some good boss designs.

Project X Zone is conceptually amazing, and seeing all of your favorite characters together is pretty cool.

Mega Man X7 has great artwork, music, and even a fairly interesting plot for a Mega Man game.

Grand Theft Auto can be fun to goof around in for ten minute bursts.

 

[Darth_Caedus]

Witcher series has nice graphics.

 

[Pokemaniac]

Paper Mario Sticker Star had good music, and the paper aesthetic was well executed.

Spoiler

Except for things. I could do without things.

 

[Playsage]

Beyond: Two Souls: ehm... Uh... Ellen Page is in it?
Seriously though, I acknowledge that it offers some spectacular visuals (and that's it)

The Wolf Among Us: I actually found it to be a cool experience... BEFORE THE ENDING

Tomb Raider 2013: I was laughing my ass off when I discovered that the game awards you with exp for killing prisoners and caged dogs (that can't actually attack you)

 

[Iva Demilcol]

*reads Thread Title*

NEVER!

 

[striferser]

Dmc2: coolest design for dante

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Xenoblade Chronicles has an exceptionally beautiful soundtrack.

Fallout 4 showcased a great way to reveal and launch a game.

 

[Conscience Falls]

Sometimes I get to sleep and that's pretty nice I guess.

 

[Csr]

Resident Evil 6 has a lot of content.

 

[SilentTristero]

God of War III has one of the best boss battles in the history of videogames within the first 15 minutes.

 

[ChaosAngel]

Minecraft allows for an exceptional amount of creativity.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

The Order 1886 has excellent graphics.

 

[MGrant]

Bushido Blade 2 has more characters and weapons than the original.

Arkham Knight has great facial animations.

Skullgirls has wonderful netcode.

 

[Theodoricos]

Mass Effect 3: The Tuchanka section was actually well done.
