Ghostbusters: The Video GameI'm a huge fan of Katamari, but this was the 4th game in the series, and it felt half baked to me. It was short and the levels weren't as polished or interesting as previous installments. Beautiful Katamari deserved to be better than it was.

Ghostbusters: The Video GameThis is a purely personal kill.
I had to deal with dorm mates playing Halo too often, and being assholes about it. The rest of these games I either like or have something I can enjoy.
Halo has been pretty much killed for me.@Brannox You should also update the rules to mention the straw poll at the end for the last two.

Ghostbusters: The Video GameA revenge kill, and let me tell you, it feels good. Don't get me wrong, I like Portal 2, it's a fine game but that's about all. It didn't leave the same impression that the first game did. Co-op? Jolly times. But it doesn't deserve a spot on this list next to all these classics.. and it certainly doesn't deserve to replace the far superior Full House Poker.
-
Hah. Suck it portal2!
Well done.
-
@SabotageTheTruth While I disagree insofar as Portal 2 is actually better than the first, in NO way am I shocked you decided to make this your first kill. Would've been shocked if you didn't ;-)

Ghostbusters: The Video GameYes this a very salty move, but there's no way I will allow any ME game to win over Dragon Age.
I've always found ME to be extremely overrated though, but 2 is definitively the best.
-
@bard91 I don't care about ME2 but that's pretty weak reasoning over all. It's the best of the series but you think the series is weaker than another one. Come on.

Ghostbusters: The Video GameSorry but Ghostbuster has no business standing next to some of the best games ever. It was mediocre back then and I don't think it has aged particularly well. As far as movie tie-ins go, it's surely one of the better ones but it still sticks out on this list.

Left 4 Dead 2It's already getting difficult to kill games.. I've never played the game, but I've heard a lot of complaints about the gameplay.
-
Yeah this list is getting harder and harder to kill off haha! so many great games!

Left 4 Dead 2I've played RDR twice to completion, and very nearly started it again when Jones began his stream play through. It's an excellent game, but it's not as great as its reputation suggests. Whilst some of the characters are amongst the best Rockstar ever wrote, many are shallow and lazy, included purely for yucks. I could throw some -isms at it but I really don't want to derail the thread. The story starts well enough, ends very well, suffers some serious dips along the way, the Mexico arc is execrable, and Dutch is not given enough time at the end to fill his story implied boots, though the infamous real final section is brilliant. As with most Rockstar games the mechanics are solid, serviceable but unremarkable.
Excellent, but not Ultimate.

Left 4 Dead 2Yes, you have a very nice central metaphor about how libertarian governance and laissez-faire capitalism are just economic slavery cloaked under the guide of freedom. But after all that you had to spoil it and have people fight a literal
Even if I agree with you, I just can't let that pass. Have confidence in your narrative next time! (Well, I guess that didn't happen, what with Infinite burying the lead about religious racism under all that wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff.) Plus, in the end you're just another dumb zombie game without any other NPCs of note.

Left 4 Dead 2It's the only game on this list I don't see the appeal in playing it, and the only I don't even want to own, and now there is only one game left on this list I don't have in my collection, well one of them I have on XB1 but details.

Dead SpaceBayonetta, mechanically a near perfect action game, but obtuse bordering on nonsensical plot, over the top campiness. Uncomfortably sexualized female mc playing up fanservice turned a lot of people off of playing it at all. Die!

Dead SpaceEasiest kill ever, it should have never made it on the list to begin with. I play a lot of RPGs but I have never been as thoroughly bored throughout an experience as Blue Dragon. Lost Odyssey isn't perfect but the concept is more interesting and Tales of Vesperia is arguably the best RPG on the system. No room for scrubs here.
-
@Haru17 OH NO YOU DIDN'T.
Edit: Expect a revenge kill.

@TokyoSlim
U wot m8 (see that joke fits since her voice is british)
@SabotageTheTruth
It's actually the game that got me my 1st RRoD because I played it so much during summer vacation back then, I thought it was great. Tbf fair though, I also enjoyed Enchanted Arms, Star Ocean 4 and most other "mediocre" JRPGs I have played more than any Uncharted game, including the dreaded FFXIII Trilogy, meanwhile I can't stand FFXII.
