Games you used to love that you now can't stand

[noiseredux]

Yeah, I'd say MK aged horribly.

The freaking Hitman series. It seems so badass in theory, but in practice it's just trial and error, trial and error, except you only get so many trials because they limit how many times you can save per level, and when you're not familiar with a place you have to spend copious amounts of time watching every goddamn NPCs walking patterns and trying to look aloof at the same time. And then sometimes the AI is weird and before you know it you've been spotted because you walked nine inches away from an enemy guard instead of the required eleven inches or some other comparable bullshit. Such a pain in my ass.

I have to agree with some of you. I remember thinking how Mortal Kombat games used to be so awesome. Now I think those games are crap and look terribly cheesy.

Mortal Kombat, obviously. I also used to love Guitar Hero I and II, as well as Rock Band, but now you couldn't pay me to touch them.

[Gnashvar]

I think the Guitar Hero and Rock Band are fun but... Sometimes I feel like I'm playing some sort of musical Tetris...

[Ack]

Yeah, I'd have to agree with Mortal Kombat. Any of them. I don't care particularly for the 3D ones either, though.

Mortal Kombat, although i play it sometimes for nostalgia
007 Golden Eye - im serious this game is pretty much unplayable to me, as well as any other N64 shooter, i cant bear it for more than an hour
few select THPS games, 1 - 3 i can stand, but the THUG 1 and 2 and THPS4 , Project 8, Proving ground i cant fucking play at all, Skate has spoiled me to much

I can still sort of enjoy MKII, but generally if I'm in the mood for 2D fighting, I'd much rather just grab SFII instead.

It's really a normal game, but I can't stand the online game Travian.

I started playing it because a bunch of my friends were playing it and we wanted to form an alliance on the same server. It was mildly fun at first. Eventually, it got addictive. Finally, it got COMPLETELY FARKING HORRIBLE. However, we all kept playing because we didn't want to let each other down and quit. The game lasted over a year until a friendly alliance finally succeeded in building the wonder of the world, ending the game.

I strongly suggest avoiding this game at all costs. It's fun at first, but it's also ridiculously broken. It's a horrible, horrible experience.
