    Default Games That Have Spoiled You

    Has any particular game ever been so much better than most of the others you have played, that you felt almost unable to enjoy a lesser title after the fact? For me it's Burnout 3: Takedown. I've just never played such a fun, well made game with so much replay value IMHO. Most competing racing titles seem pretentious and sloppy to me compared to it. I'm not trying to promote Burnout, but that would be the one that spoiled me.

    I have a feeling this will turn into a favorite game thread, but a game that spoils me, that I keep going back to would be The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. The freedom is addictive.
    Moogle's are more kick-ass than they look.

    Just Cause 2, after being able to use a grappling hook to grapple people to objects, GTA doesn't come close

    Andy joined two years ago, the banning thing was a joke and people really should stop commenting on threads being too alike other threads. You are in charge of your own posts, after all.

    Suikoden V, by doing most, if not everything, that was done wrong in previous games right. Better story telling for the non-major plot parts than SII, proper strategy fights, as opposed to SIII and, well, everything bad from SIV was removed.

    Michael Ballack, he scores free-kicks.
    He's got black hair, and he's german.
    Michael Ballack, trains in paddocks.

    Suikoden 4 sucked pretty bad, but the characters were pretty cool, tbh i have never played 5, but i own the rest of them (besides tierkreis.)

    Another game that spoiled me pretty bad was Fallout New Vegas, not saying the game was great, just saying that they made it too easy, even with hardcore mode on i was able to beat the game with only dieing a couple of times.
    Although, the game isn't easy if you go to deathclaw regions too early.

    How is Tierkreis, i have been trying to buy that game, but it is so hard to find.

    Another game that spoiled me is Red Steal 2, no other wii shooter comes close, and it is one of few that use wii motion plus.

    Again, the most important part of a thread like this would be to be able to read the reasons why this or that game spoiled you. Otherwise it will turn out to be just another irrelevant thread listing games, which we won't encourage.
