I like halo 4
I didn't like any of the Uncharted Games. I think the gameplay is mindnumbingly stale (killing enemies is a chore and climbing things is boring when 90% of the time you'll be staring at a green-gray wall of vines) and the story is slow and boring. I just do not at all get why people like it.

[QUOTE=Moustacheman;42517501]I've only been playing one. This is more or less the highlander in me speaking.
Which brings me to my next point, the MacDonalds are not really Scottish.[/QUOTE]

I enjoyed uncharted 2, first ps3 game I played. Went back and played the first one, was kind of hard to get into. The third one just made me lose interest so fucking fast.
It's just fucking boring.

Not like it is possible to move or anything
Thomas the Tank Engine wasn't as good as everyone make it to be. Every story start with some potential but towards the end it usually end very anti climatic and with a lot of questions.

Moustacheman is actually from Scotland iirc.

[QUOTE=asteroidrules;42514327]I think it would be a good idea to do away with school-run sports programs, and sport culture in general.[/QUOTE]
Just because there's been a slew of horror stories regarding funding and illegal activity (mainly regarding school Football) in many American educational establishments that doesn't mean that the sports culture as a whole is a bad thing.
Many of the sportsmen I've met haven't been "meatheads" but rather intelligent, decent human beings.

What, where did you get this idea? No one is allowed to move ever!
I've never cared about Garrus. I mean, he was ok, but that was about it. He was just 'there' as far as I was concerned.

I never understood the obsession with Garrus in ME1. He wasn't bad he was just... eh.
In 2 he was alright, and in 3 he was fantastic.

I'm from Ediburgh. If you've ever read any of my other posts, I immigrated here after serving in the US Army.
Hell, me dad's a bobby in Edinburgh. I post that sentence all the time, I thought everyone knew.
And before the whole "Edinburgh isn't highland" argument, we're a lowland branch from Edinburgh, and my family itself moved to the duchy of Gordon after the English Civil War and intermarried with the Gordon clan.
path of exile is better than diablo 2
Modern-day old-school FPSes should have a deathmatch variant that enforces keyboard only controls similar to Classic Doom.
I really disliked LoZ: The Wind Waker. I found the artstyle ugly and somewhat painful, the pacing poor, and the overworld dull.
I think Rock Band guitars are better than Guitar Hero guitars
Sue me.

I thought that was how most people thought?
I hated Bioshock: Infinite. Played through it all, and it was tedious, boring, and that AMAZING story people raved about was so dull and full of plot holes.
[QUOTE=asteroidrules;42516225]Forgive me, but I really don't understand the point of school morale/spirit, you're there to get an education, not to be happy at the accomplishments of meatheads wearing the same two colors the building is painted in. As for "try and actually pass if they want to play" that's primarily only on paper, and I think that's reflected by the fact that it makes national headlines when a highschool actually enforces such a policy, yet we see far more often student-athletes given free passes just because they play.
There's also how when done wrong academics take backseat to these programs, you mentioned one good example of a terrible misuse of funds, I've experienced that as well as my school's insistence on holding constant "pep rallies" for the sports teams which disrupt classes and schedules for no benefit whatsoever.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying sports are "the devil" or anything and I think it is possible for there to be a balance between athletics and academics, I just don't think it can be achieved effectively when both are managed by the same institutions.[/QUOTE]
Sports should not, and never should have been, part of the academic institution. It is its own separate system that detracts a lot from education itself.
I don't think it is wrong or bad in any way, but it is a hobby, and school is very much a "workplace" of sorts. Having sports be part of school is like having video games be part of your workplace; they are two entirely separate things that have no distinct correlation with one another. One is for fun or achievement, the other is for personal gain (be it money or knowledge or the ability to move on higher in society, like to college).
Once again, I don't hate sports, but I do feel like they are given far too much importance in the US as far as the educational system. The amount of money that most schools, my included, spend on sports is absurd. Hell, I'd argue over 1/4 of the funding my school gets goes to sports, if not more. That is money that could and very well should be used for providing academic activities. Academics are so post to be the primary are really the only focus of a [I]school,[/I] which by definition is an educational institution. If people want sports, have the city or town they live in sponsor it, or leave it to third party sources or even privatize it on the local level.

Also, here's an Unpopular Opinion: This thread is shit
I mean, all most people do is post an actually popular opinion for some easy ratings or some nonsense, or just post a popular opinion that people don't voice very often. But when somebody actually posts and actual unpopular opinion, they get flamed for it.
People say Rayman Legends is a better game than Rayman Origins.
I disagree with that. Rayman Legends not only felt too easy compared to Origins (less amount of deaths), it also felt literally half the length. Sure, there's the painting where it has the "remastered" version of the Origin levels, but I liked them before they got changed. What really ticks me off is the extra world. [sp]All it is in Rayman Legends is just 8-bit versions of the previous music levels, save for one extra music level, which is pretty damn anti-climatic compared to Origin's Land of the Livid Dead.[/sp]

Fire Emblem The Awakening isn't that great.
Diet sodas are better because regular drinks have that syrup taste that makes you even thirstier.

After awhile you don't even notice the sound. The feedback helps make it easier to play though. (Also the guitars for World Tour and newer weren't nearly as loud.)
CS:GO is totally fine and not as bad as most elitist CS-Players are telling. The only things I don't like are the high playercount in the casualmode and pretty much most of the weapon skins (e.g. this one [url]http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/StatTrak%E2%84%A2%20P90%20|%20Death%20by%20Kitty%20%28Minimal%20Wear%29?l=german[/url]).
I don't like the lack of physics objects in casual and sv_turbo-physics like the moveable filing cabinets in CSS
The PC actually has a market for the Kingdom Hearts franchise :x

I greatly prefer the player-made custom weapons skins, fuck them for making it difficult.
[QUOTE=flashn00b;42532232]The PC actually has a market for the Kingdom Hearts franchise :x[/QUOTE]
pretty sure that game is one that sells plenty of consoles, hell it's definitely going to for me, I doubt the console makers would wanna see them go.

I do in general like CSGO, but it's still annoying that they completely shafted modders despite it being "the most moddable Counter-Strike game".
And yeah, the skins they're offering are completely absurd and user-generated ones are much better.
