Hold up there champ... I didn't assume a thing. I read the posts and developed an opinion of them, and since it would appear you're the opinion police - you should be backing me up. |

Dude, the vast majority of games are like that if you strip away the story and boil them down! If you find Bioshock boring just for those reasons then I think you've missed the point. You might as well be playing Wolfenstein 3D with that attitude. |

EVE is one of THE most fun game I've ever played. People like you don't understand depth and teamwork, which is probably why you didn't like the combat; you never faced anything harder than an empire rat and never learned to tank and customize ships and fight skillfully, knowing when to deploy missiles, use drones, use Electronic warfare, know how to counteract EW, et cetera. |

Isn't MGS basically able to play "both" ways? Guns blazing or Sneaking around, if you fuck up, you still have to start over. Some find it more intense and fun by sneaking around, and vice versa. Doesn't change bad checkpoints at all though. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1583 Joined: 26 Mar 2008 |
Correct. I really wanted to play it the stealth way but the clumsy controls thwarted me so I had to switch to the "kill em all" approach. |
Anonymous Source Posts: 3 Joined: 15 Jun 2008 | World of Warcraft got bored after getting to level 60. Bought the new expansion, got bored after the small new area. Tried different classes, were all boring. |

Hehe, do it both ways, just add a suppressor to a lethal weapon and pick them off 1 by 1. It was getting use to the bad camera angles that made MGS such a pain (despite how much I love the series) - I mean, why do Japanese gamers hate the right analogue stick so much that they need developers to make horrible "Birds Eye of View" camera angles throughout the whole game? I'll never understand that. |

Makes more sense than the game its self. (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35147.html) |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 602 Joined: 8 May 2008 | Any game that requires me to do "farming" or excessive grinding. As far as I can see it, thats just filler material stuck in games to distract people from how lacking and short they are. Its like me claiming that this reply is actually really long and good, you just have to re-read this sentence 96 times. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 68 Joined: 18 Jun 2008 | I get bored the most by games that lack in story,even if they're fun to play I've always enjoyed a good story. Probably why I love the mgs and half-life series... and why I can't bring myself to play oblivion much at all. That, and because I panic when given choices. |
Copy Clerk Posts: 51 Joined: 11 Jun 2008 | Any game made by Cid MIezer or however you spell it also most online RPGs. EDIT:I just thought of a good one I can't get into FF7 no matter how hard I try I hate random combat and the story is'nt that great. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 404 Joined: 30 May 2008 |
Haha, Cid MIezer. Assassin's Creed bores me personally. I couldn't really attach myself to that game. Walking around towns murdering people and leaping from building to building was a fun concept, but it soon got old as the necessity of achieving repetitive tasks lingered on and on. I also got bored of GTA IV very quickly. It's a spectacular environment, and I love all the little details in all the aspects of the game, but I felt that the gameplay just wasn't as fun as past GTA games. I was also insanely annoyed that they took out the gang elements, as I loved driving into enemy territory and having 3 random fat black guys shooting out of my car window. (I love you, San Andreas.) |
Paperboy Posts: 30 Joined: 11 May 2008 | X3: The Threat. I had no idea what to do and died. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again until I gave up and sold the game on eBay. That's what you get for negating to include any sort of effective manual or indeed tutorial. |
Muckraker Posts: 324 Joined: 18 Jun 2008 | I'm going to say the "Legend of Spyro" series of games. I don't know why they changed the game from a platformer to a beat-em-up. But holy hell does it take WAAAAAAY too long to kill enemies in that game. It's really inexcusable why they made the enemies have such a high tolerance for pain, and is just incomprehensibly dull. Don't believe me? Go try it for yourself. You'll see...Oh you will see, indeed |
Copy Clerk Posts: 124 Joined: 11 Jun 2008 | I'm sure this is bound to incure a lot of abuse but i have to say them series that bores me the most has to be the GTA series. Accept of course the original top down one. I've played them all accept the most recent version and i just find them incredibly tedious and dull. I really don't see why everyone raves about them, but equally i strongly dislike WoW and thats ridiculously popular aswell. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 124 Joined: 11 Jun 2008 | I would agree with Halo. Mass Effect to some degree, but i still enjoyed it |
Muckraker Posts: 346 Joined: 7 Jun 2008 | i found FEAR a bit boring. I mean its a scary game, but when it isn't scary your just go through the same halls, fighting the same enemy over and over again.I'm suprised people have mentioned HL2, because its probably one of the FPS that has the most variety. And I have the halo demo for my laptop, i've played 20 times and I still don't find it boring. It does suffer from cut and copy level design, but it isn't as dull as FEAR. |

Anonymous Source Posts: 1 Joined: 18 Jun 2008 | I think Burnout Paradise is a very good game but on teh down side you are just smashing cars into billions of effin pieces every time you do a race. I also thought i was going to shoot myself trying to get 1000000 points in a stunt run cuz after all i suck at getting points. |

i played F.E.A.R. too at first i didn't find it scary but it's just the mood your in so don't blame the game |

Paperboy Posts: 36 Joined: 25 Jun 2008 | Just Shadow of the Collosus, sure it looks good but who wants to ride around an open world without anything to kill XD. There was no tutorial so I was lost as hell when I had to fight the first collossus. The game was just not fun after the 5th time I died hopelessly flailing around trying to figure out how to kill the god damn thing (which I never could). |

World of Warcraft was, without a doubt, the most boring game I've ever played. I have never before watched entire movies while playing a game. When I led a guild I'd just have to hang out in-game to make sure the guild members didn't bicker at each other too much and even the huge 40 man instances were boring at times. The only reason I stayed on as long as I did was to play with friends.
