We all have those things that we like that people ask us why about.
Movies, games, tv shows.

For me, I like Meet The Spartans.
I know its a horrible film, but its just funny to me.

Matrix 2 & 3, somewhy.

I like hating the sheer pointless-ness of LittleBigPlanet

I would have to say that I too enjoy this.

I would, sadly, have to say good books like 1984 or Animal Farm (yes I like George Orwell) while everyone else reads things like Twilight. I have actually been told "Who cares about those old books" when said person is holding Twilight in their hand.

That person would be ignorant then. I agree with you on the value of old books. I read Tolkien, and some kid holding a copy of Eragon told me "That uses too many cliches."

I tapped on the cover of his book twice, then gestured toward my own. "This book MADE those cliches that your book now rips off," I told him. He shut his mouth and walked away with his tail between his legs.

Seems to me that there are not a large amount of gamers that embrace the more relaxed side of gaming, like adventure games where you can't actually die, or the calm "take time to figure it out" puzzle games. I know not EVERYONE hates them, there are definitely a fair number that don't even want to touch a good point n' click adventure.

Lawl... but what fantasy novel doesn't rip from others anymore?

I like to eat pickles with peanut butter on them. Two great tastes that taste great together!

Two Worlds

I must admit, it brings me a certain degree of tranquility, wandering around, talking to peasants in Old English and solving people's problems one angry ogre at a time.

I like eating salted anchovies, all of my friends hate them, and we argued lengthily about it because each time I ordered pizzas I wanted some.

bread and gravy.

Freak! Naw, anchovies are good. MMMmmm-mmmmm.

I'm actually not afraid to admit that I... get this...

Yeah, I know... shocking Right?

Please don't nail me to a burning cross or anything for this, but I like having the freedom to say that I DON'T LIKE HALO 2 OR 3. I think Halo 3 is the most over-hyped, mediocre excuse for a shooter I've ever played.

I thought this thread was about things you like, that no one else does, not the other way around.

Anyway, I can't point anything out at the moment. Well, maybe except that I like ScrewAttack, but I don't know whether anyone here likes it, or not.

You can add me to that list.

Adored Halo: Combat Evolved. Possibly best game I've played. Halo 2 campaign was a big disappointment. Halo 3 campaign was only ok.

Adore Halo 3 Multiplayer. Even though I'm not very good.

Halo 3 was just a giant disappointment all around. Now, back on topic. Things ya like that no one else does. I am a student of language, and as an American, that scares a lot of people. I don't know why, but a lot of Americans see the ability to speak multiple languages as some kind of threat.

Final Fantasy 9 and putting furniture together (like, furniture from IKEA that already comes in convenient pieces with directions).

Windows Vista? It's shiny...

I suppose it's because you speak in the foul tongues of godless unwashed heathens, which means you are not a God-fearing Good American...
Besides, it's frightening that they do not use universal words, and that milk is Milch or melk here, moloko there (cyrillic doesn't seem to work, oh well), leche, lait or latte in other barbaric countries, God only knows why they call quarter pound with cheese a cheeseburger... Truly us Europeons are terrifying barbarians... I feel for you.

On some "Christian" messageboard I have read some retard stating that King James's Bible is the real first one, and that English was surely the True language of Christ, Greek, Aramaic and Latin versions must have been translations of English, and Hebrew is surely derived from English...

I like Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! and almost none of my friends do. I'd consider myself borderline-obsessed, actually.

Let's see... Oh, I like the Windows Classic theme, even on Vista. I never meet anyone who uses it, but I like its look and use it on all my machines.

*throws high five for love of Vista rather than throwing a stone* It took some getting used to, but I actually prefer Vista to XP now that I've gotten into modding.

On topic: Deuterous (an old game from the Amiga 500 (don't know if it is older still)

Edit: And still likes (and uses) the classic windows theme on my XP

Final Fantasy XII. Not perfect, but the only FF game that I actually enjoyed somewhat.

Ah.. Windows classic. Heaven on a computer screen.

Yes, because France and Germany are totally barbaric backward countries, and the evolution of language through recorded history is in the opposite of every recorded instance. English didn't evovle from a combination of Norweigian and German tounges! It was the other way around because "god" speaks English!

DOOM III

Don't know if people really hate Doom 3.
I totally love it. It's one of the rare games that I keep playing again and again.
It's also one of the only games that scared the shit out of me.

Horatio Caine. He could take out Chuck Norris with just a pair of sunglasses.

But of course, and there was no Latin and Normandic French influence when William the Conqueror -well, conquered Britain, noooo, nor were there Gaelics and Welsh... which are also constitutive elements of English... even remotely...
Oh, by the way, shenanigans is either of Irish Gaelic or German origin...

No More Heroes. I loved that game. It was just such a unique and/or kickass experience. And to this day I curse Suda51 for inventing the legendary NMH "Bitter" mode.
