I don't really know how you want me to expand on these but i will. I have played most of the Zelda's, the one on the DS is the one i got farthest in, it started off as some boy and some girl, i can't really remember anymore of a story after that. But in each zelda i have played or seen people play its all the same, you need to go off and save something and go and meet odd looking things and play boring dungeons. SMG, has some of the worst controls and camera i have ever seen in a video game. The camera would never go to what i wanted to see and the controls were just bad, and made even worse by the camera that never went to what i wanted to do. This caused me to fall off ledge after ledge as i tried to get mario where i wanted him to go. He never jumped where i wanted him to go and he never killed who i wanted him to kill. The whole game made it almost impossible to jump on anyone so you had to spin the wii-mote like crazy. Metroid games are just boring, i never beat any of the ones i played due to boredom, and the colous in the games are just bad, each level looks bad and appears to be painted by a kid. I played a couple of them and put 1-3 hours into them before turning them off.
HL1, i played a long time ago and can't remember all the details but i remember being bored with it, i can't really remember much of a story either. HL2 and the episodes, were full of boring parts and puzzles that did nothing for the game, all they did was extend boring parts of the game. The was also no story, you walk from place to place metting people who go "oh my god its gordon freeman" then they ask you do do some boring crap and the you do it all over again with different people. The games also had the worst driving of any game i have ever played, there was no point to those parts, but to extend the game. If they took out all the crap they never needed, it would of been one of the shortest games ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=devEDGtgZ64 This video shows HL1 and HL2, but the episodes are just like it, so extend the video another 30seconds and you have the entire game. |
BS. Honestly, Phantom Hourglass is the one you "got the farthest in" and yet you can't even remember a single plot detail? And your reasons for hating the series could be applied to just about every adventure and RPG game in existence.
And the camera in SMG is one of the best automatic camers in a game, though I agree that the jumping can be somewhat troublesome in the game.
