As if I haven't already gotten enough crap for that :P.

(Hint: Halo 3. And Earthbound.)

Super Smash Brothers. All of them. Well, okay, I liked the first one on 64 since it was new and cool. But didn't like Melee or Brawl at all.

And Left 4 Dead. That game gets boring fast.

I don't care for the GTA series either.

Call of Duty 4.
I liked it when it first came out. I hate the fact that people still regard to it as the best game ever.

World of Warcraft
Taken many of my friend's lives away. I will have my revenge. Just wait Blizzard, just wait...

Mario Kart Wii - Gameplay amounts to how much luck you end up having during a race. Real child's-play, yet everyone thinks otherwise I guess. In my case though, not a fun experience at all.

I'd say Gears of War and World of Warcraft.  I've played both and don't see the big deal.

This question has been asked way too many times. And my answer still is World of Warcraft, or any MMO.

I really dislike racing sims, so that means the Gran Turismo, Forza, and GTR series.

Also, after playing Geometry Wars, it turns out that I'm not really into dual joystick shooters either.

Most first person games

Also, while Chrono Trigger was good, I didnt find it to be the be-all end-all for rpgs that I had heard it was.

Call Of Duty 4, I still don't see why people think "OMFG BEST GAME EVAR" Call Of Duty 2 was way better in my opinion.

I'm pretty sure most people hate MMO's, if only for their effect on the weak and worthless assholes who do nothing but mindlessly grind on them (with STRADIJEE!!!!! because pointing and clicking is totally mentally taxing) all day.
I don't "hate" Chrono Trigger, but I thought it was boring. I played through the first couple of hours and disliked the art style and the gameplay. It's like a normal JRPG except without a soul.
Most FPS games are utterly boring. I don't understand how anyone can have 30+ games on their game shelf devoted to walking around looking through someone's dizzying point of view while aiming at others and pushing RT a whole bunch. Oh! But you can do it in the desert! And you can do it in a broken down city! The only FPSs I've enjoyed have been Left 4 Dead and Portal.

I'll say Gears of War and Bioshock. I guess I was just late to the 360 party and never got into Gears, the same goes for Bioshock. Bioshock was funner to watch then play to me.

edit: I'll say WoW as well, but because I've never played it myself I can't say definitively. I have however played plenty of other MMOs and they all got old after a few weeks. Just cannot justify $15/month for a never ending game.

Resident Evil 5. I am still kicking myself for buying the Collectors Edition. I played through it once and that was to many times. Such a disappointment, literally did nothing to improve over RE4 (which I still love).

 Any sports games, and anything that i have to buy an accessory for.

I never really liked sports ever and buying anything extra for a game i just bought seems lame.

By no means do I bash these types of games. They are just not my thing.
-Car Racing Sims (Forza, Gran Turismo, Need for Speed, etc.)
-Mini-Game Collections (Just about anything on the Wii)
-Puzzle Games (Peggle, Meteos, etc.)
-Sports Games (Madden, MLB, NBA, FIFA, etc.)

Metal Gear Solid 2 - The controls are horrible. RE5 controls like a dream compared to this game.
Max Payne - Poor controls, completely uninteresting gameplay, bland atmosphere.
Final Fantasy - Turn-based battles... meh.

I´m going to say Bioshock, i played it for a bit but couldn´t get into it. Although most people say they loved the story, and the setting is really good, i just can´t get past the art style...

Fallout 3 here too. It bored me as hell and graphics could have been better (I played it on PC) but consoles dumbed it down a lot I think. Great part of that game is the feeling of being in a real wasteland, but graphics looked like plastic, characters were ugly, even looking to your character in third person was ugly (and I was playing on High). Beside of that it lacked the great humor of the old ones.

Super Smash Bros Brawl. I loved, loved, LOVED Melee, came into Brawl think it was going to be the best thing since sliced bread but for some reason thought it was terrible.

I also HATE Guitar Hero/Rock Band with a passion.

Street Fighter IV, sometimes, the reason why I hate it at times is due to the fact that Street Fighter IV neglected Street Fighter III for the inferior Street Fighter II. I don't think Street Fighter II is crap or anything like that but Street Fighter III is just much more superior.

As with a couple of others in this topic I'm going to have to go with Half Life 2. I am really trying to finish it and it has gotten marginally better, but it feels like a chore. Sitting down to play it feels like work not fun. Just not for me I suppose (though I really liked the original Half Life).

1. Shadow of the Colossus - I have no problem with games striving to be art. It's just that I can't see why so many people say that this game is one of the all-time best. I personaly think that the frame rate issues rendered the game unplayable. Plus, even if climbing the Colossi is fun, the rest of the game is just dull. And gray. Very, very gray... too gray.

2. World of Warcraft - I just don't get it. It's like having a second job, that you have to pay for. I have seen a lot of my friends play it, and non of them seem to be enjoying it, complain about how boring/tedious it is, yet are still playing, in order to finish the quest, and continue doing the same thing again. It just defies simple rules of human nature and makes my brain explode.

3. Halo 3 - Oh, Halo. It's really a love-hate relationship between us, and currently it is set to HATE. I admit, that somehow, sometimes I manage to fall under the influence of my idiot friends (in terms of games, they're pretty awesome otherwise) and play Halo with them. Sometimes it is fun, but sometimes reality kicks in. This game is like Quake on fucking horse tranqualizers. Seriously. Its slow, sluggish, and just not fun. Maybe I feel this way because I've played it yesterday with my friends who play it overly serious, MLG rules, BR only, no radar and all that. It was not fun, and I just quit. Also, they interupted my game of Left 4 Dead, so that I could play with them, so fuck you Halo. Sorry, I got carried away.

  Remember the time when we were trying to decide what was better, Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4? Well, COD won, suck it Halo.

GTA, Devil May Cry, and Metal Gear Solid are the big ones.

Also not crazy about games like Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six, and somehow I just couldn't get into The World Ends With You, even though I can see that it is a very well made game.

Oh, and FInal Fantasy X... I just don't see how so many people say that's the best of the series.

Every single J-RPG ever, they all seem to use the same cliche "I'm a sexually confused looking guy, who's gonna save the world" theme.

Call of Duty 4, I totally don't get the whole "BEST GAME EVARRRR!" thing people have going on.

World of Warcraft, I hate the fact this fucks people lives up, and just the game in general.

Sports games, stupidest games in my opinion. Totally don't see the appeal of them.

Game: Halo Series - no skill required FPS...that simple; counter-strike runs circles around this bitch.
Genre: Music Games..all of em. Mainly Guitar Hero and Rock Band - repetitive stupid game play with way too many releases in short amount of times loaded with bloatware accessories...pass.

Fallout 3. Dull, repetitive and a gimmicky VATS system which fucks up the idea of it being a first person shooter as well as an rpg. You CAN kill people by not using VATS, it's just that it wastes more ammo and is a lot harder to do.

1. Smash Bros series

I don't think it's bad or anything, but I just can't wrap my head around it.  I'm not bad at games, but I honestly can't figure this one out.  I'm just terrible at it and I can't figure out what's happening on screen.  It's just too crazy.

2. Halo series single-player

I think the multiplayer is fun, but I tried forcing myself through the Halo single-player campaign and I just couldn't fight off boredom.  The art style/setting just doesn't gel with me at all.

Chinatown Wars. The DS screens are too small for a proper GTA game.
