Pokemon Battle Revolution(Worst 3D Pokemon game ever)

Enchanted Arms(Poor battle system and the voice acting made me want to shut my 360 off)

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney(More of a story than a game)



Pixel Art can be fun.

MGS4

The MGS series is one of my favorites but 4 was a big letdown for me personally, the game-play to cut-scene ratio was way off.

There are quite a few games that didn't meet my expectations, but one stands out above all else: Final Fantasy III for the DS. When I got it I did not even own a console, and so most of my gaming happened on handhelds. I had played Final Fantasy DoS (the 1&2 remake), 4, 5, and 6 on the GBA, and had just gotten FFIII for the DS. Since I had just finished FF6 which was incredible, I was really excited and got a DS as soon as I could with my own money (I was turning into a JRPG fanatic).

Unfortunately, it was terrible. It just did not have anything worth the money or the time I put into the game. The storyline was disgusting, the gameplay was way too shallow to make up for that storyline, and the music though good repeated so many times it was driving me crazy. Its good graphics seemed to be its only positive aspect, and frankly I didn't care at all about graphics since I was mostly a handheld gamer and became immune to that stuff. And besides, it just couldn't make up for the time it stole away from my life.

How I wish I could get those many hours back. I remember at one point near the end of the game actually quitting for about a whole month before gaining the courage to beat the final dungeon. The game just felt like an atrocious waste of time, and I hated it. It was the first game I ever hated, and just for that I will remember it for the rest of my life.

Pokemon Battle Revolution; This isn't Pokemon Stadium 3. :(



The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the best Zelda title ever made.

Decca Sports. Ten sports -- about two of them worth it.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

As far as recent games Resident Evil 4 - not bad, but I don't see how it had such amazing reviews
Oblivion - I wish I bought this on PC. Enemy scaling was a terrible idea.
SSBB - fell for the hype, and it just didn't seem as fun as the original.
I would say GTA4, but I pretty much had no hype for it since MGS4 was coming so close to it. Also it is still fun to just drive around and blow stuff up.
