Like the title says, what popular games did oyu not like, and why? For the sake of argument, only include games from genres that you like. For example I wouldn't say Call of Duty even though I didn't care for it, because I generally don't like military/war simulators. So anyways, here are mine:

Super Mario ~~World~~ Advance 4; Super Mario Brothers 3 - No secrets to discover; levels way too short; you can't backtrack; all-around worse than its predecessors

Ocarina of time - Often difficult to figure out where to go (I gave in Dodongo's Cavern btw); little help given by the game; sidequests frustrating and difficult.

Epic Mickey - No backtracking; camera really is that bad; your decision to be good vs evil has almost no impact on the game (thanks largely to being unable to backtrack); there's no final boss battle; they outright lied about the "forgotten characters" theme.

EDIT: got rid of "Popular" from the title; they don't have to be popular.

Don't remember that game.

You know which one I mean though right? The one with the frog suit and the raccoon and all those other ridiculous powerups.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

It is the same as any other Call Of Duty game I have seen. Run about, shoot stuff, repeat. I despise stuff like that.

Gears of War bored me fast. And I also hate Battlefield Bad Company. The first one is barely playable, while the 2nd has nothing really new.

Good call. Terrible for the same reason CoD is.

I usually love racing games, but I despised NFS:Shift. The camera wsas crap, ALL the cars drifted, however you drived, and the drift mode was horribly difficult.

I'll stick to Forza 3 and NFS; Undercover, me.

Meh, i kinda like CoD, but i just hate Halo.

GUYS!
This is about games that you would think that you would have liked, but didn't. If you loved CoD4 but hated CoD 6, than fine, but if you hate all shooters, saying so is NOT the point of this thread.

Read the OP.
