Metal Gear Solid 4
This game practically killed my interest in the series. Hell, I'm not that excited for MGSV as I should be because of this game. It looks pretty good, but screw this game!
The story and dialogue were terrible, with nanomahcines being the answer to everything and had lots of hollywood cheesy scenes. B&B Corps had no character development, and their boss fights didn't live up to the standards of the previous games. Way too many lengthy cutscenes especially in the last two chapters; I know MGS is heavy on cutscenes, but the games had maybe like a 50-50 or 60-40 cutscene to gameplay ratio. MGS4 had like 70-30. Serious!
As for the gameplay, it was rarely a stealth game. You could side with one faction and dash through half the chapters without drawing any alerts because you don't pose a threat to that faction. You could buy ammo & guns by pressing start, so there's no motivation for exploring and conserving ammo. There was a lack in mission variety as most of them was just "go to this destination," and you didn't even have to bother searching for your goal since you could just press start and look where it was. It also lacked easter eggs, something I loved about the series.
