Do you think you have any gaming opinion(s) that could be considered unpopular or even 'controversial'?

[DudeJericho]

I'm pretty sure I do. Because I grew up in the 90s during the Sega vs Nintendo era and then the coming of the PS1 etc, I feel that games nowadays have lost a certain magic given a few exceptions (Rayman Origins being one). This is of course just my opinion so I'm hoping I won't get fried too much.

Focusing on more the visual aspect rather than gameplay as in trying to make games look realistic has in my opinion tarnished gaming. Everything just looks dull to me. Of course there is Nintendo and I do like their games still, but as much as I love the Mario games, Zelda etc, they seem to rely on those series way too much, but they're making money so why fix what isn't broken I guess.

Also I hope to see more different games being released, there are so many sand-box, military shooter games out there that it does my head in alittle to be honest.

Handheld gaming is dead and pointless. (Not Iphone and Android etc) But the PS Vita and 3DS.

COD really isn't that bad, it's a solid game.

Deus Ex : Human Revolution should have been game of the year 2011.

Purely single-player games are the best.

Thought Fable 3 was quite good.

Gears of War 3 was a bit of an er disappointment with regards to the story.

Vice City is the best GTA

Final Fantasy- Never liked the franchise and never will.

There needs to be a Mirror's Edge 2

Assassins Creed's multi-player is dire

Buying a suit because you're in a cup final in Football Manager is worth it

Minecraft is the weirdest game ever, its ****ed up how people actually get money because people watch them play this weird game on Youtube .

Battlefield 3 is extremely boring.

And for all its faults in terms of bugs, Fallout 3 was the best RPG game I have ever played.

Medal of Honour: Frontline, my first PS2 game had the best war-time storyline.

Jak and Daxter had an amazingly well thought out storyline and background setting.

[Urban Protocol]

Skyrim isn't that good.

[I Persia I]

People have different reasons for why they play games and that's a big part of it. Some play for storylines, some for the visuals and some for the gameplay, online or otherwise. There's always something to find that fits your liking.

Single player > multiplayer.

[RedDevilThing]

Thought we'd see one of these sooner or later.

Here's mine:

It's not really an opinion but I've never played Pokémon in any shape or form.

COD is a good, if over-milked, games franchise.

I can't get on with the PlayStation controller at all.

The Assassin's Creed series is brilliant and deserves several more instalments.

There are not enough strategy games out there.

The video game market as a whole needs more variety.

Handheld gaming is obsolete.

Nintendo is a joke. They make toys for kids and gimmicks for old people. No self respecting gamer would buy a Wii, a 3DS, or any other toys/gimmicks they release in the future.

People who buy Call of Duty every year are imbeciles.

Hideo Kojima is the greatest man in the gaming industry. He should be regarded as a god.

Mediocre gameplay with a great story and characters >>> Great gameplay with a terrible story and characters


And also, I concur with whoever said that unrealistic, artistic characters can often be better than the drab realism inflicted on us in almost every modern game.

This is an unpopular opinion?

[Tommyjw]

Gaming was not better when you were younger. It only seemed that way because it was newer back the and you expected less. It also pisses me off when people say this, complain about the lack of great new games, and then know sweet **** all about the fantastic single titles or indie games out there.

I like the bluntness of your post

Just wanted to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed your 'unpopular X opinions' threads and eagerly await the next in the series

Amen brother

[Sazhns2]

Jak and Daxter is still the best platformer available on the Playstation

Final Fantasy 7 is over-rated.

All sports games are terrible cash-cows.

Probably not but I put it in anyway.

thanks mate.

[Aust1n]

Halo isn't all that.

The majority of games, just aren't what they used to be.

The Tekken series is better than Street Fighter.

[Cannotbelieveit]

Call of Duty is a ****ing rip off, they charge you for the same game every year.
