Have to agree about Power Stone 2. Though most people I've spoken to seems to prefer the first game, so I'm not sure it classifies as a game "everyone loves".

Not so sure about the general opinion about the games but I guess the first Assassin's Creed and Dragon Quest IX could fit in here. The former mainly because of how monotonous it was. It's massive hype added allot to this disappointment. The latter because it's tremendous lack of interesting characters. The customizable party is very nice, but it could never make up for the total lack of personality.

Also just about every Pokemon title that's been released since Red and Blue. For rather obvious reasons.

I'm going with the Madden series. It's the same freaking game every year. They just add in new stuff just to keep up with current things in the NFL.

Are you kidding? Just about every YouTube video or review I've seen says that Power Stone 2 is a must-have.

Really? I've never played Power Stone, but I have to admit that I wasn't overly fond of the second one. Didn't really seem to give you a lot to do outside of the main Arcade mode, and there was no real reason for doing so either.

Yea main arcade mode for Power Stone 2 was kinda dull since I'm pretty sure it didn't have endings for characters. Still Power Stone was a fighting game, the arcade mode meant squat.

100% agreed here. Too overated and very repetitive

Well, I'm never good at most Mario games. Mario Kart is a good example. I always am at the last 4 or something. Never liked that game much eider. I get better though with a GC controller though I suck with the Wii remote. I prefer NFS. Especially Most Wanted, my favorite.

Only Games I really enjoyed from Mario Were his Classic party ones and Paper ones.

Im gonna have to go with Nights on the Saturn. I've tried it a fair few times now but I just don't get it. You just seem to fly through hoops over and over again. I just could never get the appeal. I've not played it in a few years now though so I might give it another chance.

I've never beaten that either. Tried last year to finally exorcise the demons and play through it but got annoyed at the same parts. One minute I'm having fun, flying through the hoops in magic dream land with the happy music, but then that nob starts throwing cards at you and ruins everything.

I wouldn't say I hate it, but everyone seems to love Gears of War. I've never been that impressed with it, always seemed very average and it relies heavily on the hype Micosoft pushes it with. Run over there, hide behind that, shoot that, repeat, repeat, repeat. It would help if the characters were interesting or likeable or if the multiplayer was exciting.
