I have a feeling we will be seeing more and more I never finished so and so RPG... I like it but got bored (code for I am trying to force myself to like it but I don't). Really RPG's are boring in nature and your doing yourself a favor quitting. Don't get to angry RPG fans just a little jab because my favorite genre has basically been dead for 15 years.
I can't stand sequels with numbers after the title (Final Fantasy 2, Dragon Warrior IV) in my collection next to my other games. Not sure why, just hate how it looks and I usually keep them somewhere else, lol
Yeah, Sonic 2 is too easy. The first game is harder than it. I beat Sonic 1 & 2 for the GG before. Sonic 1 for the GG isn't all too bad. There are nice little challenge spots here and there but its about the same, if not a little harder than Sonic 1 on the Genesis in terms of difficulty. I'll tell you, Sonic 2 is the real challenge on the GG ( I like the challenge but some spots piss me off). It gets pretty damn hard in one of the later on levels. You have to go through these dumb pipes in a certain order and I remember taking forever on them because I didn't know where I was going. I forgot the level name.Quote:

If I were to add something else, it'd be that I never really played any of the RPGs mentioned in this thread other than PSO on the PC with some friends. I should probably give RPGs another try (and I have before) but I just can't seem to get into them. I like my games a little fast paced and certain RPGs make me feel 'confined' as opposed to freely moving about in a platform game or pushing people and getting away with it in NBA Jam/Hangtime. I know what I'm saying is blasphemy to RPG nuts but I value all opinions, even if they are negative towards games I like. Just can't really get into RPGs unless it's like a fast-paced Hack n' Slash like Diablo II or something where I can play online with friends too.
I don't like RPG games....
...
I suck at Shmups. I've only ever beaten two in my entire life, and those two were "Thunder Force III" and "Bio-Hazard Battle".
This may have to do with the fact that I've only ever played a small handful of shmups in my life, and have very little experience with them. When I was a kid, I didn't like shmups, and I avoided them like they were sports games. It wasn't until a few years ago that I began to like them. Maybe someday I'll get better at them.

Lately (say the last 5yrs or so) it is very rare for me to just sit down and finish a game. In the last yr, the only games I have sat down and finished are AVP (PS3), Space Marine (PS3) and Mickey Mouse COI (Master System - I love this game). At the moment I am playing through the Anniversary Halo on XBOX360 (a console I hardly play since it is a release non-HDMI version and I am just waiting for the RROD).
I have bought a Dreamcast and have some great games for it, but I just don't have the time for it.
I am to busy with work, and in my spare time doing repairs/mods for the local Game Traders or working around the home.
Sorry, not angry just have to disagree. I have beat more of them than anything. Just sometimes I get bored, RPG or not.Quote:

I've never been able to get into any of the Sonic the Hedgehog games I've played, with the exception of Sonic 2 for Game Gear which I liked OK. The gameplay mechanics just don't do it for me.
I'll put it in more controversial terms: I'd rather play Sword of Sodan than Sonic the Hedgehog. And I'd rather play Ariel: The Little Mermaid than Castle of Illusion. (Oh no he didn't!)
Let's see, what else...
I don't like most FPS games, and 3D games in general, because I have terrible spatial relations skills and am constantly getting confused about where things are and how they connect to each other.
I can't get anywhere with the following games: Super Monaco GP, Zaxxon Motherbase 2000, Revenge of Shinobi. All of 'em kick my ass.
Conversely, I think the alleged difficulty of the following games is wildly exaggerated: the Earnest Evans trilogy; Art of Fighting for Genesis and SNES; Ninja Gaiden on NES; the Mega Man series; most RPGs.
I'm disappointed by most critically acclaimed run-'n'-gun games, especially in 2P mode, because the gameplay is just too messy and over-the-top. For some people I guess the experience is a glorious mess, but ultimately I find myself not really enjoying Gunstar Heroes, Metal Slug, et al. One nice exception is Sunset Riders.
I never played Alien Soldier, and Shining force 1&2.
This. RPGs are boring. When I come across them I sell for a profit to people that do. I also hate Anime.Quote:
