Rereading your list about the lack of games supporting the Eye, I'd like to add my hatred for the fact the cable on the Eye is only 2m long, if that.

The PS3 system is designed for larger-than-life HD graphics on a big screen ... so I get all the gee-whiz tech setup, buy EoJ, and wind up having to play on the floor 5 feet from a 46" TV. Holy crap that was painful. Hey Sony, can I get a wireless Eye or a longer USB cable so I don't have to pull the entire PS3 out of the cabinet to get a comfortable distance away from the TV to play this stinkin' game?!

Yeah, I did that, too. It makes EoJ an absolute arse to play. I'm thinking that 25 (for me; my OP list is expanding fast) is: I hate the short Eye cable, it makes playing EoJ an utter eye strain. Thanks for that one.

As for everyone else, it seems the 360 crowd are a little quiet. I know the 360 isn't perfect; I assume you all do as well? Or are there just not many 360 peeps about today?

On that, anyone think they can get to a decent 25 point list for the Wii or the 360? I daren't ask about the PC, as it seems faaaar too easy (and I'll be adding my PC list later, as I game on it a lot).



Xbox360

-I hate the fact RROD exists and people constantly ask me if my xbox RROD'd (no it didn't)
-I hate that I can't get a decent Dpad on this system
-I dislike that games have region lock (can't import Raiden 3)

Prolly more but thats all i can think of.

Loads of snippage...

I know it isn't your doing but have you tried using an USB extender? would make it a lot easier.

 

Not yet, and I probably should, but I've not played EoJ enough of late for it to be a major issue, so I've never bothered trying to resolve the problem. That said, one of the reasons I've not played it was because sitting right by the TV was less than ideal, so that's no excuse. Shame, really, as I had a good laugh with EoJ. Indeed, after all fun hate in this thread, it'd be nice if something good came out of it all, so perhaps I'll fire the game up again; it's been a while.

GameCube:

1 - I hate its small capacity media. Killed third party support and any chances of hearing mp3 quality audio and real cgi cutscenes.

2 - I hate some things on its controller: the arrange of A, B, Y and X, the lack of select and left Z, the lack of pressure sensing.



 

 

 

 

 

Wii:

I hate the lack of memory.
I hate half-ass ports of last gen games.
I hate shoe-horned motion controls where they don't enhance the game.
I hate lack of good third party support.
I hate that some of my favorite games from previous gens get crappy spin-offs instead of full games on the wii.

Gaming in general:

I hate that my friends suck at gaming so they won't play me because they lose.
