NOT MEANT TO BE A RANT EXCLUSIVELY.  Share your most unpopular opinion in gamng.

While a close second for me is that the N64 is the most overrated console of all time considering it had less games than the Saturn and killed Nintendo's 3rd party support.  

My most unpopular opinion as a primarily Playstation gamer is The Last of Us is the worst critically acclaimed game of all time.  *Gasp*

My reasoning.... THE AI IS HORRENDOUS

I heard Sony fanboys say "play on grounded the AI gets better".  Having finished my playthrough on grounded I came to the conclusion that it only gets worse.  Besides the fact that the AI doesn't notice Ellie which is a game design flaw in and of itself, throwing a brick at the AI while it lunges at you does nothing and you get owned after the brick breaks over the enemy's head.  Sometimes the AI does not notice you when you are directly in front of an enemy, and other times you're next to the AI and nothing happens and sometimes it just paces around in an oval.  This gets frustrating as there were points in the game I felt I did not deserve to die and others where I felt the AI didn't function well enough to pose a threat.  The point is the most critically acclaimed game of all time doesn't have functioning AI, not the best looking exclusive on PS3 (GOW3) and the multiplayer gets worse after patches.  

Please share your most unpopular opinion in gaming

Sincerely,

Your Friendly Neighborhood JRPG enthusiast

I think turn-based combat is the best kind of combat for RPGs

The PS2 is the is very overrated. MGSV isn't fun.



FFVI is awful (But FFIV, FFVII, FFIX, FFX, and FF Tactics are great).

Dragon Age: Origins is excruciating.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has unbearably poor controls and camera (but Link to the Past is great).

Dark Souls is terrible (but Bloodborne is fantastic).

The N64 as a console was an abomination.

Xenosaga is one of the worst things to ever happen to the JRPG genre (but Xenogears is wonderful).

The one that's probably most controversial is how I think Ocarina of Time is very overrated, but I think the same about the Nintendo 64 as a whole too.

And Skyward Sword is the best :O

Besides what mZuzek said, I guess CoD is fine.





Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

As a pc/Ps4 owner this is the best gen so far



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Seemingly everything.



3D Zelda sucks
Pokemon games nowadays are mediocre
LoL and DotA are overrated
GameCube controller is the best controller ever



Sony's first party games are by and large, very average. They've put out very few that I've really enjoyed, hoping horizon can join that list as a great one as it looks very interesting.
