1) Call of Duty series: what on earth is so amazing about that game? An average shooter with a repetitive WW2 setting , it copied medal of honor (even though the latest games weren't that good) and i always gotta play the "heroic americans" who save the day. I wanna be the evil guys!!!! I wanna play the japanese and the nazi!!!

2) GTA series: the story in the game isn't that bad. The shooting is terrible and I find extremely boring to go around a city and kill people waiting for the cops to come, sorry but that's not fun for me.

3) Metal Gear Solid series: stealth games aren't my cup of tea. Nothing else, but my friends love them and wanna make me play, but I just don't like them.

4) World of Warcraft: are MMORPG really that interesting? What's so cool about going around without reason killing people for hours and hours? Unoriginal gameplay and absolutely no story...well that's not for me.

5) Guitar Hero: pushing buttons without reason, terrible remakes of many songs, not enough songs!!! I never found a song I'd really like to play, and I like music (even though I'm not an expert). Only the punk-rock hardcore really enjoy it (among my friends of course) but they aren't the casual audience this game was meant for, i guess.

 

1- Not gonna argue with you there, especially with the last statement.  Though I like it for being able to come home and shoot people up after being frustrated/stressed.  And FPSs do move faster than RPGs and I'm in college right now, so I can't dedicate as much time to games as I'd like.
2- I'd disagree if the controls weren't so confusing.
3- Oh how I couldn't agree more.  Fun to watch (IMO), BORING to play.  Kojima should have become a movie producer after MGS1.  I say this because MGS1 was an important contribution to the gaming world afterall, without this game advanced AI wouldn't be around today.  MGS2 and up should have been movies though.
4- Never played, no opinion.
5- The only one I'd disagree with.  I personally like the soundtracks and they're fun to play at lesat IMO.  But to each is his own taste.

1- I like shooters, I just don't like COD. I agree FPSs do move faster than RPGs and that's why I like them. The last statement was a joke (but generally speking, I prefer the evil guys and I haven't played games that let me do so).

5- Probably that one is based more on my personal experience than anything else...really.

I love this threads were you can peacefully discuss and share opinions and tastes. And I'm sad that MGS4 doesn't sell more even though I don't understand that game.

 @Munkeh111: Indeed COD: MW is the best one, and the only one I kinda like.

@Toefactor: Thank you for the explanation about MMORPGs.
