You sir, are a terrible, terrible human being. :evil:
You know what? I don't like Mario or Sonic either. So there. :P
Yeah, Mega Man is where it's at!

I don't care much for Mega Man either. :lol:

I'm just not big on platformers.

Borderlands, I was hoping for a great game, instead I got a decent one.

Oh, also, I really wanted to like ICO because I feel like some sort of video game philistine for not liking it.

Well, prepare for complete purgation: Fuck Zelda. I've played Ocarina, Majora's Mask, Oracle of Seasons, and Wind Waker. All of them put me to sleep. The whole damn game feels like a maze. A grindy, windy maze. Just to add to the shock value, I don't like Metroid much either.

I was also really really disappointed in Uncharted. It came with my ps3 when I bought it a few months back. I thought I'd love it, but I was really bored playing it. Mostly because there were so many cutscenes and the hero was such a douchebag. I've never met anyone who felt the same way about it though. :(
I wouldn't call Nathan Drake a douche. But he's definitely not as cool as Kratos or Marcus Fenix .

I've never been able to enjoy Zelda either, though I've certainly tried just about every game in the series. I much prefer the Climax adventure games (Land/Lady Stalker & Dark Savior).

As for Nathan Drake. I don't see him as a douche at all and I do think he's cooler than Kratos and Marcus Fenix. He's just a normal guy, lacking the power of a god or steroids, but look at some of the stuff he does. He's pretty fearless. Some of his mumblings do manage to make me chuckle as well.

Grand theft auto 1, 2, 3, 4, I cant play it, it gets boring after less than 5 min of play.
