Agree with that one, never has a game bored me so quickly.
Everyone i personally know loves it to bits. All my friends have it and their gf's have now taken over the ps3 to play it. Every time ive taken it somewhere to play some co-op its been played by 4 into the early hours lol. There are a lot of user created levels always poping up so it keeps changing
What ever floats your boat i suppose.
I've found the same, I never really play it.
But if you have a bunch of people around, four player co-op is brilliant fun.
Yes it's a shame that Rare have gone from being one of the best developers out there to just another face in the crowd, since they moved over the microsoft the only good thing to come out of them was Kameo, I don't think there has been anything else noteworthy, unless viva pinata is worth playing!?!

Viva Pinata was great fun, Kameo was also good. PDZ was a massive pile of steaming ****
apparantly the demo is a very poor reflection on the end game, and the game itself is supposed to be waaay better, fingers crossed

hmmm but £32.99 for this when the demo was a let down or buy something I want?
hold off buying it straight away then and pick it up when it comes down in price a little and theres a few more opinions on it
Pretty much all RPG's after I played Secret of Mana. I couldn't understand why they weren't all multi-player. Oddly RPG's went from mostly single player straight into MMORPG without ever focusing on small-scale multiplayer.
MGS2. I liked the first game but one thing always annoyed me- that you couldn't snap someones neck when they were lying on the ground- you had to wait for them to stand up again. Bought the MSG2 and IIRC this got me killed so I turned it off and never played it again!
Half-Life: Two issues. It was my first time really playing a PC FPS and I really disliked the quick save and auto saving etc. I was young and had loads of time on my hands so I had no problem playing goldeneye/turok for 2 hours and dying just as I was about to finish a level or reach a save point- it really added to the tension.
The second issue is that the game went to crap near the end when you went to the alien planet. HL was at it's be when you were fighting soldiers or getting your face eaten off while crawling through a vent.

LBP since it usually crashes when I select Quick Play, either doesn't connect or fails to load back to the hub during the end of level scoreboard.
I was hyped over Killzone 2 before release, but I guess I was just jumping on the bandwagon. Now that I've played the demo and seen the beginning few hours of the game, I don't feel hooked at all, unmemorable characters and a plot I don't feel involved in. Seems the only reason to get it would be for the eye candy since the MP doesn't hook me in either. Will be a bargin bin purchase if anything (if they bring out a co-op patch).

the only reason i would agree with you about mgs2 is because there wasnt enough snake play time
Test Drive: Unlimited
For me, the map is just too big! It sucks having to drive for hours on end trying to open up save locations and garages. Also, the ridiculous AI where the police will constantly harass you for the most minor traffic infringement and unless you stop IMMEDIATELY, the fine keeps going up and up until all your hard earned cash is gone. Also, when starting the game, why does 'New Game' completely overwrite your existing save game?!
GTA:IV
OK, preordered this one, paid top-whack as I really loved San Andreas, and played it pretty much constantly for months. What a disappointment - the story line is awful, you spend half your time driving about loosing interest in the missions you're on and many of the features that made GTA:SA so much fun just weren't there in 4 - no parachuting out of jump-jets, no riding on trains, no hovercraft etc. I know it's more realistic, but it's a game - it's supposed to be a bit bizarre! Also the 'duck and cover' mode that always seems to put me on the side of the obstacle that provides no cover whatsoever.
