What are some games you could tell were going to be so bad that you didn't bother playing them?
real life
>>338066578
Anything published by Ubisoft.
>>338066578
Star Wars Battlefront, the new one. The Legend of Zelda Triforce Heroes. Battlefront had no singleplayer in a god damned Star Wars game, and Triforce Heroes had shitty unfun singleplayer in a god damned Zelda game.
>>338066578
Any post 2001 Naughty Dog game
Xenoblade (and X)
and uh
Every post GameCube Nintendo game.
>>338066578
90% of vita library.
The other 9% is a sneaky shit that looks like i should bother with
Duke Nukem Forever
Federation Force
and surprisingly enough, people will call me an entitled manbaby for that too. Godspeed James.
>>338066610
basically this
>>338066669
This, Battleborn, most western releases in general honestly.

ME3 and DA:I
Saw those turds coming a mile away.
>>338067824
I'm jealous anon, I fell for it.
I skipped Dragon Age 3. I think I made the right choice.
>>338067724
edgy

>>338066929
>The Legend of Zelda Triforce Heroes
This is the one I think of in recent history.
>>338068114
DmC is actually pretty fun, anon. It's way better than DMC2.
>ellen page simulator
>any madden, fifa, nba 2kbleh
>grand turismo after 3

>>338066578
Not even baiting, pretty much every first party Nintendo game in the last 5 years.
>>338068114
Which was the worse reboot, this or sonic 06
>>338066578
SC2
Diablo 3

Star Wars Battlefield
#FE
Pretty much every single AAA game released recently
>>338066578
It's like most of you faggots haven't heard of free will. The entire industry is built around games not looking fun or looking nice to you. That's the fucking point of visual entertainment. See the word visual in it? I can tell Uncharted is shit because it looks like a movie and shows hardly any gameplay that revolves around what I use to play on older consoles. Since it lines up already with my preconceptions of how this industry has went to shit due to greed and lack of talent, it's easy to conclude it would be shit.
Just like Ghostbusters: Female edition.
>People angry that he doesn't want to see a shitty movie
At what point will they realize they've become caricatures of themselves
>>338068268
sonic 06 was a reboot?
>>338066578
Doom 2016
>>338066578
Every single jrpg ever made.
>>338068181
This. Is a solid 6-7/10 to DMC3's 9/10.
>>338068181
Not that anon. I actually bought and played the game. I wouldn't consider it good but mediocre. If bought for $20 no more than $30 it's ok to play and forget about
>>338066578
#FE
>>338066578
The new doom
Persona 5
>>338068268
Sonic 06. DmC was edgy and casualized, but it was at least playable.
>>338068427
sorta, only going off the fact that it had the same title as the original with no subtitle. Watch the new cinemassacre video.
The 2016 Ghostbusters tie-in game
>>338067572
Name some good Japanese games that aren't jrpgs
>>338068181
>It's way better than DMC2.
How is that a compelling argument? That is like saying dogshit is better than cowshit.
Metal Gear Solid V
>>338068249
Especially the side scroller super marios after NSMB . They're all exactly the same, except for Mario Maker.
>>338068515
Wow. I just realized due to this post that I actually won't even try persona 5. I didn't even realize that I wouldn't like to try the game because it was in my mental "exclusives that are worth playing" list but actually it's pretty shit game for depressed NEETs. Fuck.
The Elder Scrolls and AssCreed games
Every time I try them, I get bored and quit in less than 2 hours
>>338068641
Demon Souls
Is this your first day here?
>>338068784
Naw mate I meant jrpgs are bad so name a good jap game that isn't jrpg trash and you did.
Mario Tennis Ultra Smash
Legend of Zelda Triforce Heroes
Paper Mario Color Splash
Metroid Prime Federation Force
I actually feel bad for Nintendo, but oh well.
meme souls
DARK
Got it because I was expecting a new Vampire the Masquerade
I have never been so wrong in my entire life 20 minutes in

Git gud
Any modern game where you play as a female character.
undertale
>>338069083
But you got it so I assume you played ergo you fucked up. The whole point of the thread is what bad games you didn't even bother playing.
>>338066929
Get friends, faggot. I bet you hated Four Swords Adventures too
>>338069268
If I play a game less than an hour I honestly don't consider it
Battlefront, Battleborn, Evolve, Watch_Dogs, Homefront Revolution, NFS 2015, Final Fantasy XIII
Mass Effect 3
Tortanic
Wildstar beyond the first month and a half.
That's about it really, oh I refunded The Division too.

Deus Ex.
>>338069928
Are people really flipping out at James for his harmless cineamassacre video?
>>338066578
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising
Imagine being such a corporate cocksucker you get outraged that someone said they won't be giving Sony money to see their shitty reboot.
>>338068778
At least Elder Scrolls can me modded
Simple: If it says this anywhere on the box, do not buy.
>>338070035
not him but that game has honestly aged like milk
>>338068940
Mario 3.
Simcity, the always online one
>>338066578
dota 2
league of legends
overwatch
>>338070869
The inverse of this is true, only buy this made in Japan. There hasn't been a good western game in 10 years.
>>338066578
It's such a dumb premise to have such butthurt and internet waves over, but I'm glad it's about somebody cool like James instead of somebody lame like Jontron
>>338066578
I have some newfound respect for James after that video, he's right. Why watch this fucking garbage when you know all going to see it will do is give them more money? It doesn't matter if everyone goes to see it because "lol it's so bad", the Kikewood executives still make money off of digging up 30-plus year old movies and replacing all the characters with strong empowered womyn and niggers.
The newest game by Kojima
>>338066578
I have a hard time with this because shit surprises me sometimes. I watched my friend play the new Doom, and wow; it's pretty cool. I thought Dead Rising 3 would be shit, but wow; it's a fun game.
Conversely I thought Sunset Overdrive would be fun and I couldn't stand it. I bought Fallout 4 and only played it for six hours.
I think my radar for fun is broken
>>338071451
You thought Dead Rising 3 was fun so it definitely is.
>>338066578
Fallout 4.
>>338066578
every Final Fantasy after 12
I have officially given up on the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series. The games haven't been good since Daggerfall and Fallout 2. I don't know how I got fooled by the hype for so long.
Also anything by EA. I forget exactly why but sometime around 2010 I started boycotting them and I feel better for it. I just assume everything they release will be garbage. I want Mirror's Edge 2 to be good but I won't bother unless it's a roaring success.
Fallout 4
Spotted from a mile away
>>338066578
dmc, the reboot
dragon age 2
i played the demo and knew the game would be total shit
>>338066578
My hype for Fallout 4 died when settlements were announced
>>338066578
>Uncharted 3
>Fallout 4
>Undertale
James has always been a cool guy.
>>338066578
I knew Rodea was going to have physics on par with Sonic Adventure, but I still played it. For about 3 levels. Just like SA.
Still don't know how people can defend either game, btw.
>>338066578
Many.
To name two popular ones that people were disappointed; Brink and Spore.
>>338066578
Your favorite video game.
Bioshock 1.
Civilization V.
Bastion.
>>338071313
>There hasn't been a good western game in 10 years.
>>338071906
Only one of those is actually bad, you're missing out
>>338066578
uh there's too many to name.
but the one I'm most disappointed in is space engineers.
I knew it was trash because of this sentence.
"Thrusters can be placed anywhere on a ship. Unlike in real-world physics, thrusters do not apply any torque to the ship. Instead, they apply linear thrust in the direction opposite the nozzle."
>>338068661
>had to play mgs 5 to realize it was shit
lmao
>>338072160
That one in particular was shit. Stupid mechanics like "everything freezes while you slowly line up all your shots and instantly kill everybody." People I watched play this trash spent most of their time gambling in fake casinos. Pathetic.
>>338072105
None of those is remotely bad. Well maybe Civ V was before patches and expansions
>>338066578
Dude Raider Reboot
>>338066578
Aquaman. I got it as a gift years back.
>>338071265
Technically correct, but you can still like something shitty. It's not exclusive to movies either, I like bad games
>>338066578
World of Warcraft
Fallout 4
Anything Sony
>>338072547
You can, but sometimes it's obvious that you're not going to like something even in a so bad it's good way, James clearly knows that this reboot will just piss him off.
>>338066578
Anything by EA, Ubisoft, Gearbox or Bethesda
I guess people never heard of hindsight.
Sonic 2006. I even enjoyed the Adventure games but I knew this was just too horrible even for my easy standards.
>>338069775
>The put out another trailer
>Still looks like complete and utter shit
>Trailer spoilers pretty much confirms a reddit leak sometime ago
Wonder how badly it's going to bomb.
>OP tries making an off-topic thread
>Thread is entirely on-topic
>>338072486
we posting unopened boxes now?
>>338073127
Sure why not. I can't find my old Aquaman right now though, it's in a box in my basement with my other Xbox titles I didn't like.
>>338073053
Sometimes, once in a blue moon, /v/ makes me proud.
>>338073127
>tfw your mom just out of nowhere buys you a bad game because she thought you might like it, and was thinking of you
A very strange flavor of guilt
>>338073463
I know this exact feeling. Which is why I have it. I'd better play it. Do it for her.
>>338073354
Or I could tell you the actual reason, but if I do I know I'll get banned. Just telling you right now it isn't /v/ being good for once.
>>338066578
Just about every single game I thought was going to be shit.
>>338073463
you know what to do. you have to fuck your mom. go, right now.
>>338066578
The division
Watchdogs
quakelive
>>338073608
same with duke nukem forever. She remembered I loved duke3d like 15 whatever years ago and just plucked this up for me, even though I never said a thing.
>tfw bad, ungradeful son
>>338073463
Yeah. Hence why I never got rid of Aquaman and played a different game, telling her it was Aquaman. I still have it.
>>338066578
Uncharted 4
Nintendoland
FF7R
Halo
Sonic Boom
>>338073784

I played them all to completion regardless. RIP mom.

>>338074127
nah my mom was weird but that shit never happened.
>>338073704
>Just telling you right now it isn't /v/ being good for once.
Yeah, it's actually quite the opposite.
>>338074127
what the fuck
