Video games. Quite simply, they are an enjoyable pass time in most of the world. There are terrible games that are ignored. There are good games that get the recognition they deserve. There are good games, that, even though they are quite simply some of the best damn games made, are simply ignored, and fall to the wayside.
Then there are bad, horrible games, that somehow, become popular and are deemed "good".
This blog talks about the last one. Games that I, personally, have played simply because I heard nothing but good things about, but end up hating it. Why? Simple: It fucking sucks.
I am by all means a casual gamer. I have no deluded dream of ever getting a job in the gaming industry. I am not a paid reviewer. I sit down, I play games for maybe a few hours a day, maybe less. I am probably more into games then you, maybe less. The simple fact is, I am a normal person, telling you what games are shit, and why they are shit, and yet, nobody seems to realize that they are shit. It truly boggles the mind of how such shitty, horrible games ever get popular at all.
The reasons they are shitty are varied. Crappy voice acting, bad written stories, more bugs then an ant colony, controls that react like an elephant performing Swan Lake, whatever.
I'm not doing this to persuade anybody. I'm not doing this for fame. I'm doing this because, frankly, I'm an asshole with an internet connection and I have nothing better to do.
Well then in the edited words of the Black Eyed Peas, let's get it started.
