Default Re: Write a Brief Dissenting Opinion About a Popular Title Thread.

Sometimes you just feel like ranting, even though you know pretty much everyone disagrees with you.

I create this thread as the home for the minority opinion for popular titles. I'll start because I feel the need to rant.


I've tried, for two weeks, God I've tried. Orange Box. Disgustingly dated graphics that remind me of a day in PC gaming I'm glad we're far past, a terribly gay story line that somehow finds a way to take itself seriously. Decent level design with lame weapons, and a prime example of terrible writing and to a lesser extent voice acting in a well funded videogame.

I haven't played Episode 2 yet, but am glad to see someone else trash the storytelling in HL2. It's always been bareboned as fair I'm concerned and I cannot understand why every damn critic says it's so great. The games have never made me feel any affinity for Gordon Freeman whatsoever either.
