What critically panned game do you actually really enjoy playing?
-
DmC Devil May Cry.
Mechanically it is better than half the mainline games, and unless you have a hardon for overplayed anime tropes, the story and characters are a lot better too. Kinda sad there will never be a squeakuel.
-
I also loved The Getaway and Alpha Protocol.
And while the reviews aren't bad for FF 13. It was an awesome game. Had a wonderful soundtrack. Beautiful art direction. And fantastic engaging gameplay. I also liked the characters too.

@Mbun Posting this as a different post so I can delete later if I remember, but just noticed you can get 15% off Yoshi's Story through My Nintendo 150 Platinum coins (the easy to earn ones that don't require spending money) this month.

I'm still having a good time with No Man's Sky. Does that count?
-
@TokyoSlim It's critically panned (at least to an extent) and you're enjoying it, so yep.
-
I didn't think Duke Nukem Forever was a bad game. I don't know if I'd say it was great, but I played it once through and never felt like I regretted my time with it.
-
I'd have to say it's Yoshi's New Island for 3DS. It's actually quite great and the first worthy successor since the original was released. Yoshi's Island DS was really bad so this was a welcome return to form.
-
I really loved playing RE5 with my friends. Played the main game and DLC and the mercenaries mode. I veiw the game more as a fun action game.
-
A recent example would be Federation Force. Granted, some critics were pretty favorable towards it, but that game has been panned to oblivion for unfair reasons to begin with.
-
Maybe due to the fact that there was almost nothing to play on ps3 at the time, I always enjoyed Kane & Lynch. Really mediocre game but a fun couch coop experience for sure.
-
@Hero-of-Lime Oh so there are people who own this game :D I'll pick it up in a couple weeks, would you be up for some co-op?
-
Metroid: Other M, I don't care what other people say, it was a good game in my opinion.
-
@Axel I should be. Considering how few people have it, I know it won't be easy to find other players. But, luckily single player is really fun.
