Halo (and its 2 sequels). I never really got that much into them, and I felt like that game was a blow to FPS' everywhere.
(note: I'm not saying that FPS' aren't good, it's just Halo seems well overhyped.)

Yeah, add it to my list. Never got the big deal. Hell I still don't know why FPS's are a big deal.

But, on that note, I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU.

Damn you guys are some haters. Are there really any major games that aren't Nintendo games that you guys like? Cause you have hated on all the other series so far. Except Resident Evil and Silent Hill, but since I've mentioned those I expect to see them get hated on too soon.
Keep drinking that haterade guys.

You know, except for the over half the people in this thread that despise Zelda.

Wasn't Final Fantasy originally a Nintendo game?

It was originally on Nintendo consoles, but it's always been a Square property.

You know, except for the over half the people in this thread that despise Zelda. Zelda, Smelda. I'm waiting for the Mario hate, Smash Bros hate, Metroid hate, Super Mario RPG hate, basically the best of the best of Nintendo that isn't Zelda. Zelda is like the only Nintendo franchise hated on, either with people contending that Ocarina of Time isn't the greatest game ever or people just not liking the franchise at all. Actually, when you think about it, the Zelda franchise is the easiest to hate on as it has changed the most out of all the Nintendo series.

Zelda went from being a 2D collect s***/do sidequests/dungeon crawler to a 3D collect s***/do sidequests/dungeon crawler. Metroid went from a 2D dungeon crawler to a 3D FPS. Koda, you've lost me on this one.

Different people hate different things. Yeah, but except for Zelda, nothing Nintendo has been hated on yet. Maybe if people explained why they hated the games they listed I'd be more accepting, but just listing a game and then maybe saying "I didn't get it" or "it wasn't that good" isn't going to cut it. The only games I hate are games that suck. If a game tended to get good scores, I tended to like the game. I think we need a sister thread to this one. A thread for Games Critics Hated But You Loved...that kind of thread I'd actually be able to list games, cause as I said I agree with most positive reviews for a game, it is when games get low scores that I don't agree with critics.

With the exception of Mortal Kombat and the Smackdown series, not really. There are a lot of games I tend to find highly over praised by critics but in most cases I don't outright hate them. One of my pet peeves is when the gaming media goes into hysterical group think mode and starts declaring incredibly average games to be revolutionary. My only solace is that the passage of time always proves them wrong.

Koda, you've lost me on this one. Metroid's only change was from 2D to 3D. Also, it wasn't a FPS, it was a First Person Adventure game. Zelda went from Top Down 2D(Zelda) to 2D side scrolling(Zelda 2), back to Top Down, then to 3D, then to 3D with a time limit, then to Cel Shaded, and now it became more mature themed(Twilight Princess). That's 7 changes....8 changes if you include the use of live action character models in one of the CD-I games. Mario and Metroid didn't change that many times.

Not too many, but the last 3 MK games really did nothing for me.

Well to be honest, I hate pretty much anything Nintendo. Zelda I think is kiddish and lame. Mario is kiddish and overdone. Smash Brothers is boring to me and once again, kind of simple and kiddish. What else? Lets see, the Wii is an overpriced gimmick that has yet to entertain me. So, all in all, I hate Nintendo and most of its 1st party titles. BUT, I also agree with a lot of the games some of the guys have already posted about here, Halo being among them. So like was said earlier, we all don't think the same.
