Tell me a game, and I will hate on it for you.

Chrono Trigger.

Chrono Trigger is a terrible game. The gameplay is shallow as fuck, even for RPG standards, and the story is animu fantasy drivel. For all the tout of time-travel all you're doing is progressing on a mostly linear path with the merciful option of ending your pitiful playthrough at (mostly) any time.

Also fanatics sperged over the game so much that it got a even-terribler sequel, which makes this game even more of a sin to gaming.

Portal 2.

Portal 2 is a terrible game. It tries to ride on the coat-tails of its slightly-less-terrible predecessor and ends up ruining what little good the first game had. Portal 2 doesn't know how to do anything beyond 'puzzle -> story -> puzzle -> story' and drags on for far too long. Overproduced garbage.

Unreal tournament

Unreal Tournament is a terrible game. It's a wannabe Quake 3 Arena, which is already a crappy game about wandering ugly mazes and shooting dumb, unbalanced weapons. Oh? Unreal Tournament has an alt-fire for its weapons? WOOPDEEFUCKING DOO. Not that people care about those weapons, because everyone plays insta-gib anyways. Or one of the far-too-many crappy mods and/or maps that its husk of a community had made.

As much as I would like to hate on it, moldy grouse as far as that definition as concerned is not a game. And as originally stated, this is a thread about me hating on games.

Dark Souls
Dark Souls is a terrible game. It has no semblance of fairness (after tutorial it misleads player into a higher-level area whereas the real way to go is behind you), there are a fuck-ass-ton moments where the game is incredibly obtuse about where to go (did you honestly immediately figure out where to go after ringing the first bell?), and the online system is broken both technically and mechanically.

Quake 3 is a terrible game. Everything it does Unreal Tournament does better, which is still a crappy game about wandering around mazes and shooting dumb, unbalanced weapons. The weapons in Quake 3 are boring (alt-fire would be nice), and the movement system is a slippery piece of turd. HOP HOP HOP HOP HOP HOP HOP

GTA 4 is a terrible game. Everything it does the Grand Theft Auto 3 games did more of and did better. You're stuck in one pitiful city and everything is far more scripted than the GTA 3 games. Was the intent to make GTA 4 feel like a more polished experience? It failed. The series was a least a little fun when you could do crazy shit with your cars and helicopters and jets and jetpacks but 4 got turned into this muddy, stupid brown mess of doldrum. And whoever put the 'friends bug you on your crappy cellphone' in the game fucked up royally.
