List the flaws in your all-time favourite game(s)
No game is perfect. Well, let's forget Ms. 'Splosion Man for now. The enormous majority of games aren't perfect, and even the greatest you've ever played or your favourite has some flaws, right? So what are they?
[b]Halo 3[/b]
Lot of problems with the Campaign, such as no story for half the game, a rubbish last few levels, and a very obvious attempt at a peak.
Sandbox was also overcrowded with unnecessary Brute weapons.
[b]Half-Life [/b]
Xen's colour pallet made me want to throw up.
On a Rail is the most -blam!-ing tedious level Valve has ever produced, dare I say it even worse than Water Hazard in HL2 (no, actually, because the -blam!-ing hovercraft is terrible on the 360 controller).
[b]Myst[/b]
Selenitic Age mine-ride puzzle. 'Nuff said.
Bug or not, actually accessing the Selenitic Age with the goddamn music sliders and the organ was impossible for so long.
[b]Riven[/b]
Far too gargantuan a single age for its own good, because it was hard to keep track of where everything was, which was very necessary for the Fire Marble puzzle.
[b]BioShock[/b]
Just plain nosedived in terms of plot quality after dat reveal.
And what the -blam!- was the point in forcing us to use one Plasmid for a period of time? Just a curveball?
[b]Skyrim[/b]
Buggy AI, buggy physics, buggy many things.

Just Cause 2: Grinding is okay, but this is ridiculous. No multiplayer. (360) Mirror's Edge: No multiplayer Halo Wars: Covenant is too OP earlygame Maxing the game is difficult without air units in some campaign missions Too little unit diversity

Halo wars: Campaign was too easy with very little variety No covenant campaign No flood MP race Arbiter is OP early game No free build like it was supposed to be Covenant vehicles useless aside from scarab Game rushed out then immediately shutdown No sequel in sight :( COD MW2: campaign was not as epic as the first MW Modders Trick shooters No scoping Griefers Unbalanced Noob tubers

Edited by WhitePowder: 4/24/2014 1:06:59 AM[b]Halo 2[/b] Only problem with halo 2 is the matchmaking modders, stand byers and bridgers. Other than that it was Purrrrrrfect [b]Skyrim[/b] Little bit of a better storyline would have been nice Dragon fights are WAY too easy. All you had to do was go to the back of the dragon and spam the attack button. Was never killed by a dragon once which is proof dragon fights were too easy. Never really experienced these glitches that everyone always complains about and I played the crap out of Skyrim.

Skyrim: Lack of dlc Campaign wasn't as epic as Oblivions Lack of real importance in every faction No ranking system for the guilds, way too short Becoming master theif was way too tedious to achieve Halo Reach: Too short of campaign Didn't make sense after reading the fall of reach Paper vehicles No skill ranking system 343s title update Bungies last halo :'( GTA San Andreas: No free roam multiplayer!!¡!!

2 Replies[b]Battlefield 4[/b] Dat laggy netcode. Motha fecking counterknife - I want to murder someone over that. The ridiculous ease to shrek pilots, it's great when you can take out any aircraft on your own with the press of a button but it does feel cheap and if you are on the receiving end it's frustrating. Battlepacks could have been great but are full of shit instead. [b]Fallout 3[/b] It's not aged as well as I would have liked, especially when vegas is brought into the question. [b]GTA V[/b] Not my all time favourite but it needs a mention, story was perfect but the postgame is as boring as watching paint dry. Police are just instant raep machines if you so much as slug someone in the head.

Edited by Tyger: 4/23/2014 9:41:56 PMDark souls 2- several lackluster bosses when compared to dark souls 1 (too many knights) Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced- pretty easy, no multiplayer, doesn't get the attention it deserves Halo 3- I'm sure it's flaws will be listed dozens of times in this thread so I won't even bother Jak 3- short and easy compared to jak 2, there's no jak 4

[b]Halo 3[/b] Didn't like 'Cortana' - the campaign level, that is. Forge was great but I never felt truly able to create what I wanted, even though one of my maps [i]almost[/i] got a feature in matchmaking. [b]GTA V[/b] STILL NO HEISTS ONLINE AHFAHSAJADFAIFH

Majora's Mask: It has no remake.

Tiberium Wars: No amphibious or burrowing units. Some minor continuity goofs. NO WALLS! The Forgotten were left out of the story. No Tiberium creatures. And the game ended on a cliffhanger that it's sequel literally forgot about (But that's more of a knock to C&C4).

DMC3 Vergil's mode blows. While playing as Vergil was fun, playing through his missions wasn't (imo) 'cause he didn't have his own seperate missions, the whole damn thing was literally a copy/paste of Dante's playthrough, you even fought a red coat wearing Vergil... This was probably one of the most disappointing aspects of the game and personally, I blame the devs for being lazy... Given the cutscenes you see that involve Vergil, there was enough there to give him his own unique missions, albeit the number of missions would have probably been significantly less compared to Dante's, but at least the player would be doing the stuff that Vergil actually did... I.e. fighting Dante (not himself ffs) 3 times, killing Beowulf after he's defeated by Dante and doing whatever miscellaneous task leading up to the final battle etc... Hell maybe even a short boss battle between Mundus and Vergil... One thing that I can say lolNinja Theory did right with their shitty fanfic of a reboot is Vergil's mode. It may have been a DLC (which is -blam!-ing stupid, but I'm sure Crapcom is to blame for that) but at least it had its own unique experience...

9 Replies[b]The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time[/b] It could have been longer I guess. [b]Pokémon[/b] Object pokémon. Garbodor. [b]Super Smash Bros.[/b] Useless items. I'm looking at you, fan. [b]Mass Effect[/b] The ending. [b]Battlefield 4[/b] Bugs. Bugs everywhere. [b]Assassin's Creed[/b] Altaïr was boring, Ezio was milked, Connor was boring, and Edward didn't learn shit from the assassins (false advertisement) [b]Skyrim[/b] The abundance of content frick fracked with my quest log and overall gameplay. Also, game breaking glitches.

Final Fantasy: Lightning Returns. -Lack of enemy variety (Though understandable) -OST not as memorable as the older one's. Cant think of any other games right now.
