Banjo Kazooie Nut N Bolts is actually really, really, good, on par with the originals. The writing is still hilarious and witty and the the graphics are pretty nice looking still for a game from 08. Nuts N Bolts is a lot of fun and gets way too much hate.

Bioshock 2 gets a lot of unnecessary hate, I'd go as far to say it's the best in the series and that Bioshock Infinite is the worst in the series and gets too much love.

Dark Souls 2 gets A LOT of unnecessary hate also, and it's a real shame, it's a very good Souls game with the 3 expansions being the best DLCs so far in the Souls franchise. Souls 2 is honestly one of my favorite games of all time honestly

Resident Evil 0 is also I think a very very good RE game that gets hated on a bit too much, the biggest complaint I always see is the inventory/swapping characters mechanic and I never had a problem with it personally. Billy and Rebecca are great characters, Capcom should do something with them again.

I always loved RE0 and never had any problems with it.  Most of the hate I saw for it came from a buddy of mine (who is a huge RE nut) that simply hated the game because it was not on PS2 since the net was still a baby back then.  My experience with it was so positive I was unaware that people had problems with it at all for a good while.

I miss the days when you just enjoyed games for what they were, without very vocal "critics" trying to pick everything apart on forums.  Nothing wrong with constructive criticism...it was just a simpler time is all.
