Pretty much every big game, it just becomes cool to hate them, and it really pisses me off when people just call these games crap, and just exaggerate massively

I totally agree with u. It pisses me off too. But everytime this topic comes up I think of you, because I remember how much you praise and love games like Modern Warfare 1, GTA 4 and Assassin's Creed 1, which are main targets of haters.

They are amazing games, and I think they were truly revolutionary, whatevery the flaws. I don't get why people were so critical of AC I anyway

I don't mind people not liking games (aside from Uncharted 2), but when they call them crap, it is just taking it too far when there are clearly many redeeming features of these games even if they aren't quite drawn in

It's fine if the individual dislikes those games, if they offer valid explanations to why. Sadly, this is not the case with most gamers these days.

As for the original Assassin's Creed, I didn't hate it but I didn't particurly like it. It was an average game, due to repetitive side missions that make up most of the game and the shallow combat model. It had potential to be so much better, the sequel is an improvement in every way.
