I've been far too positive lately. So in that spirit I've decided to make a list of games I hate. Games that in my mind completely and utterly suck. Now to clarify I'm not going to list games that were never meant to be anything other than functional at best. I'm here to talk about games that were meant to be good. And some people do think they're good (they're wrong). Maybe you're one of these people (and once again I want to emphasize you're wrong). But this is my list so fuck off.
So for the month of February I'm going to give you my list. One new game a day. Look forward to it and feel the hate flowing within you. And here it is in no particular order:
- Faxanadu
- Castlevania: Lords of Shadow
- Tao's Adventure: Curse of the Demon Seal
- Pac-Man (Atari 2600)
- Dr. Franken
- Torin's Passage
- Blues Brothers (SNES)
- Limbo
- X-Men (Sega Genesis)
- Harvest Moon: My Little Shop
- Child of Eden
- Herdy Gerdy
- Final Fantasy X
- Actraiser 2
- SaGa Frontier 2
- Children of Mana
- Assassin's Creed
- Burger Time: World Tour
- The Acceleration of Suguri X
- Spyro the Dragon: Enter the Dragonfly
- Impossible Mission (Atari 7800)
- The Sims
- Double Dragon (NES)
- Rhythm Heaven
- Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart
- Street Fighter
- Captain Comic (NES)
- Journey
Well, we now know what 28 will be.
Yes, yes we do.
Super Mario Bros?
Yep... Might as well not even write it up now.
Now you listen and you listen good. I've waited 28 days for this so you damn well better write up the final game.
Well, only because you asked so nicely.
28. Journey
Anyone here or on planet Earth surprised? I didn't think so. I hate Journey. I really do. I refuse to even post an image of the game. Journey is not a game, and the fact that it was passed off as one infuriates me. And to make matters worse, it's a critically acclaimed game. Was 2012 that shitty of a year that we actually thought Journey was good? For fuck's sake, it was just walking around with or without a stranger by your side. I could go down to my local park and do the same thing, and possibly have a conversation in the process. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled wasn't convincing the world he didn't exist. It was making this game.
Yes!!! Fantastic ending to a great blog!

Bravo, Robio!
