    Criticizing a game before release, is like tearing down a movie with it's cast choice and trailers.
    :nod:

    You can often (although not always) see a flop coming well before it is released.

      No reason to hate. For me, games like those are like pop music... I enjoy them for the same reason everyone else does, but I know there is better stuff out there.

        when I use the word hate what I really mean is, a very unhealthy underlying rage that I feel towards that game

        seriously, I don't think there was ever a game series I hated as much as Call of Duty, besides Halo

          To all their own. :p

          I don't think there is anything I hate more than certain rap and hip hop - oh and crunkcore. UGH. So the analogy still fits.

            You guys don't seem to realise that people don't want to spend THEIR money on a game they expect to be bad, to find out if they were right. Same goes with a movie, if the trailers look awful your not going to want to go and see it at the cinema to find out if the rest of the film is good or not.

            You guys piss me off when your telling people to spend money on a game that they don't think will be good/they will like in order to criticise it. How many times have you guys criticised Twilight? And how many times have you actually seen it? Exactly. We all do it so don't deny it.

              I didn't tell people to go an buy the game :cries:

              I judge games and movies equally, I didn't watch Transformers 2, because the whole damn story was in the trailers, I didn't watch Twilight.. because.. it's ****.

              Similarly, I didn't/will not buy MW2, because it's overpriced and recessive.

                Yeah sorry that point wasn't directed at you, more of a general comment.

                  I've watched some poop films in my time but really I was the most pissed walking out of Transformers 2, cinema going isn't cheap at all these days

                              This same girl thinks that all the covers of Beatles songs done in Across the Universe (which I refuse to watch on principal) are better than the originals! WTF! :|:

                              How could any song that Bono sings ever be better than one by the Beatles, let alone I am the Walrus?


                              I told her (this was online) "you realize that none of the artists would dare to claim that their covers are better than the originals?"

                              she replies:
                              "the new covers are the chocolate chip eggos which everyone likes more than the original plain eggos but out of politeness they say they like plain eggos"

                              WTF :shock:
