Forums - Gaming - Bad games this gen with great graphics

Actually me disliking the game does make it bad.  TO ME.  Which is the only way a game can be bad.  

Whether a game is good or bad is 100% subjective.  There is not a way to objectively rate quality of entertainment, and there never will be.  That is the entire point.  Everything is in the eye of the beholder.

As for your whole thing about "objective professional journalists" reviewing games, I have three words for you.  KANE.  AND.  LYNCH.


This guy gets it.

Hold on there! You're posting the box-art of the one good CoD game (okay CoD 2 was good too). This is the only only one I still play on occasion and also ranks in my favorite games of all times list. I loathe the one after CoD 3 though.

I only posted it because it had the series whole name on it and not a sub-title. Nothing against this specific title.

It wouldn't qualify anyway, the original COD didn't have great graphics, even for the time. :p

Have you even played one Call of Duty game?

And CoD neve had good visuals.

I hate Threads like this. Most people use them to troll great games, especially PS3 and Xbox360 exclusives. Games like Gears of War, God of War and Skyrim are obviously great games, and everybody knows that. And I don´t understand what those people wanna achieve by trolling them. There are many very bad games like Homefront and Inversion, but no those idiots keep trolling some of the games.


Absolutely this. Well done for being the first to say it.

This is what I posted to another person (Sal) when they asked this question:

"I know, but they are still horrible games deserving of the title."

I dunno, COD4 looked pretty darn slick in 2007, same for MW2 in 2009.



Well some ones that come to mind that I remember being a bit disappointing but graphically pretty good:

Medal of Honor (Wasn't exciting.)
Ninja Gaiden II (haven't tried 3 yet but this just didn't do much for me.)
Bionic Commando (does not do a good service to the classic game)
Operation: Racoon City (just plain dull. not very enjoyable to me)
Fable III (While I wouldn't say this game was a complete let down I can for sure say I liked 1 and 2 better. I just didn't like the changes they made and hated the so many various collectibles in this game. There were like 5 or so different collectibles. Collectibles to me can be annoying if the developer puts too many in. One set of collectibles is fine but no more than 2 please!)

Thats all I can think of for now but there may be more.




I wonder how many people posting these games gave a good, 5-10+ hour try of the games they're slating. I'd bet less than 25%.

Anyway, Killzone 2 would be my choice. I wanted to like it because it's a Sony exclusive. But it's just not my kind of FPS at all. Beautiful, but boring.



Ninja Gaiden III it is. It looks very good but this game is torture, I mean this is the worst Hack´n Slash game I´ve ever played. Such a shame.
