The Ball

This is a very very boring game. The only reason I got it was for the Potato Sack stuff back when Portal 2 was coming out. I played this once and it was really really.. boring. I don't know what else to say. Nothing interesting happens in the game really, from what I've played at least. There are a many number of other games that you could spend your money on instead. Avoid this one.

BIT.TRIP BEAT

BIT.TRIP BEAT is a weird music game. You catch the squares coming along with your breakout rectangle, and hope to god your headache goes away.

Something about this just doesn't hit me the right way. It felt a bit.. boring. At least guitar hero and stuff has graphics, this is just painful.

Duke Nukem Forever

A nasty looking game from an era I'm glad that has passed, Duke Nukem Forever only sold copies because of the title. The game is boring. If the levels aren't cramped, they're long, bleak corridors. You can interact with the environment which is nice, but most of the time that's all there is to do in between pretentious boss battles, and surprisingly stupid encounters with the dreadful AI. Duke Nukem Forever should've stayed that great game we never got, instead of the outdated shit that it is.

Also, I bought the $100 Balls of Steel edition. I'll be sure to mark that under 'Retarded things I've done'.

Crysis 2

Crysis 2 was definitely an... interesting game. It wasn't extremely bad, but it wasn't even remotely good. Multiple flaws, such as the inability for the user to save, and no access to specific graphical options, are inexcusable and at best, wholly annoying. The vehicles have the worst mouse sensitivity, the linear levels are disappointing, and the small variety of weapons and enemies screams laziness. The plot could be a bit more interesting along with the characters. Strangely, with all its flaws, I still found it interesting enough to play through to till the conclusion.

But, in the end, the game is forgettable. Just another game that feels like it was ported to the PC. A rapidly growing list. Also, once you start up the game for the first time, when you have to adjust the brightness and contrast, it tells you to adjust your TV settings directly if the picture cannot be seen.

Skate 3

My experience with Skate 3 was a strange one. I would skate around and.. well, that's pretty much it. Seriously. Sure, you can hurl yourself off the top of buildings, and try to get high scores. You can do challenges, and even go online and see everyone's crappy skate parks! The problem is it all just gets boring. Yeah, it's cool to screw around pulling off insane combos, but once you figure out it's just a manner of brute forcing your way to achieve things, it just gets boring. Repetitive. It wasn't bad when I played it, it just never got me to come back.

Spider-Man: The Sinister Six

A PC game from 1996 that you don't know and probably don't care about, Spider-Man: The Sinister Six is unknown for good reason. It's a horrible game. Very boring and very stupid. The game is part click adventure (as in one part is slightly a click adventure and the rest you just talk to people by clicking on them), part action, and part shithouse.

The levels are ugly, the puzzles are insultingly stupid, and the whole game is just fucking dumb. What qualifies as action is amazingly repetitive and just needless. The closest thing to describing it would be rail shooter, but a lot of it is moving your mouse to dodge things, like a Sonic bonus stage, and even then the game just doesn't care where you move your mouse. No click adventuring (unless you count moving across the room as adventuring), and no action only leaves one thing.

Rogue Warrior

A game that had a chance to be good, but botched it so bad. It's one of the worst games I have ever played. The worst game around today. Sadly, it's not funny bad, so don't expect to get that out of it.

H.A.W.X. 2

H.A.W.X. 2 is very... weird. When you're playing it, it seems fine. You fly around and shoot things. Neat. Good fun. Afterward, you'll realize you have no clue what the hell is going on in the story, and feel like you haven't really accomplished anything. You never become interested in the story, meaning you're never vying to find out what's going to happen next. It feels better as an arcade game rather than an actual game with a story. Maybe it's because I never had a big affinity for flying games, but I didn't really like this. It probably didn't help that Ubisoft kicked me out of my single player game all the time too, just because my internet is shit.

Aliens V.S. Predator

A game that could've been decent at some point, isn't anymore. With the now abandoned multiplayer, and disappointing single player, this game is totally useless after a few hours of fun.
