A Game You SHOULDN'T like but do...

[DarthMol]

So here's another "What do you...?" thread but they make for interesting discussion at least

Tell us about a game you for all purposes SHOULDN'T really like, i.e. it's not your preferred genre, theme etc. but against all odds you love playing the game.

An example: My one friend is what you would call a hardcore gamer (mom's basement type if you know what I mean), very much into his shooters and "hardcore" PC games - yet against all odds he is a big fan of the Sims games and once spent about 3 hours recreating his likeness in the game.

It would be interesting to see what unusual games you all like to play.

Cutesy games like Little Big Planet and most Pixar and Disney games.

Just love them.

 

[FarligOpptreden]

Platformers. Any and all platformers, including the Disney movie tie-ins of yesteryear (Lion King, Jungle Book, etc).

 

[Mister 44]

"Find the hidden object" games.
And Cookieclicker.

Lots of people did not like it for obvious reasons;

Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude

I'm a hardcore FPS gamer. I play BF, CS:GO and the occasional COD.

But I sometimes enjoy a little time on....... The Sims

None. I like what I play.

P.S. Something may come to mind, but as of right now, nothing.

 

[DieGrootHammer]

Urgh there are a few games that I shouldn't like but I do. I like The Sims. I like Goat Simulator.

What's wrong with liking The Sims? Not a game for a 'grown-ass man'?

 

[DarkStarZA]

I play the occasional Candy Crush on the bog

No it's not!! It's for filthy casual scum, but I love it so...

 

[Wlad]

NeverDead, Splatterhouse, (There's a few more I can't think of right now) These are technically shit games, they got (mostly) pretty bad reviews all round, but I still really enjoyed them.

I've also been known to enjoy the occasional game of Sims.

It seems that for many the Sims is popular guilty pleasure.

I genuinely dislike playing RTS's, but Starcraft 2's multiplayer brought me many hours of enjoyment. For shame.

This is nothing to be ashamed about...

I cant believe how many people like the sims... That is one game I... Can... Not... Stand...

With everything I have access to these days, PS4, PC Games, I still enjoy playing the old Snes 16 bit games like Mario Bro's and Double Dragon... Circus Charlie... "whistling:

 

[BeoTeK]

Hunie Pop... Yes I said it. I actually find it quite entertaining.

 

[FarligOpptreden]

I enjoyed the first Sims game. It was quite revolutionary. I haven't been able to get into the sequels though...

I also put waaaaay too many hours into Bejeweled 3 and Peggle.

Yeah, I know. I figured that it's mostly a Blizzard thing. I'll play all the RTS's they produce for at least a bit, in spite of myself. I'll play anything they produce for at least a bit!

The only Blizzard game I havent played to date is WOW and that was mainly because I never had an internet line good enough growing up, and now im so far behind I couldn't even imagine starting WOW...

But I do agree with you, pretty much anything Blizzard launch im keen on...

I think all freemium games, and theres only one game i hate in this world... "Zuma Deluxe"
