For around a year or so (Since Resident Evil 4 anyway) I have been completely out of love with gaming, online or otherwise. It just hasn't appealed to me and has seemed incredibly boring. I booted up counterstrike and halflife a few times, but quit within 5 mins to find something more interesting to do.
However, despite buying it about a month ago I finally slid Metroid Prime 2 into my gamecube. Just wow. The whole thing just feels so totally fresh. Its like shoving zelda and halflife into a blender and tasting the results. And they taste good. Despite me disliking how 'open ended' and 'where the hell am I supposed to go' feeling the game started with, I am completely hooked right now and I imagine I will finish it sometime soon. Well worth picking up a GC just for it.
Has anything like that happened to you recently or have any games greatly exceeded your expectations?
