Five games I like that nobody else does

We all have those games. You know what I mean, a game that you thought was amazing and you go and tell all your friends about it, only to find out that apparently the game was worse than series nine of Scrubs. Here's five games I thought were great, only to find out that major critic websites like Metacritic didn't agree with me. I'm looking at games that were either critically panned or hated by fans globally. A game can get good reviews and be hated by fans and vice versa.

The Simpsons Road Rage - GameBoy Advance/GameCube



When I first got this game on my Gameboy I loved it. I enjoyed every second I had with it, then about a week before I started collecting I traded it in for store credit at a now closed down game store so I could get a Nintendo 64. But as fate would have it, a lot of the games I traded in were liquidated to an even better games store nearby, so I bought back a bulk of my games, including this one. Now the GameCube version was even more hated, getting mostly negative reviews overall, which surprised me, you can see my review of the game for my further thoughts but wow, didn't expect it to completely flop in professional reviews.

It's a quirky, fun, fast paced game that I can definitely recommend playing through.

007 Quantum of Solace - Xbox 360



Every single person I've asked about this game have responded with one of two things, either "What games that?" or just general laughter at my expense. Yeah it's a movie tie in and the game got favourable reviews but apparently people didn't like it. I'm not sure why they didn't like it though, the game, obviously while being a movie tie in, was a really enjoyable game if you like mindless FPS games, which I apparently do.

Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard



But Ewan, how could you like such a terrible game? Well, it's an odd one this one, I didn't like it for the shooting that's for sure. Yeah, I see why people don't like this game but at the same time the story is one of the best parts of the games and it's worth playing through this game to see all the story envelop. It has Neil Patrick Harris as a voice actor too, along with Will Arnett and even Olivia Hack. There's also some really easy achievements in this game, I mean, 60G for watching the credits? I'll take that.

Destroy All Humans Game Series



Literally the entire series has been attacked by critics and my friends, and I have no idea why. It's some mindless fun, especially the second game of the series. A whole four "Destroy all Humans!" games were made, with the final game being released on the 360. Then Pandemic shut down, then THQ shut down, so the rights to this franchise are somewhere out there, we can only hope for another one of these in the series.

Some really creative ideas were thrown around in that game, especially mind control, the variety of weapons and slaughtering cows.

Fable III



So apparently this game (while well received by most critics) was hated by most people. I'm not too sure why, every time I go play this game and ask a friend they usually laugh in my face and say it's a bad game. But is it really? I absolutely loved the whole game and the voice cast was just star studded, Simon Pegg, Stephen Fry, Jonathan Ross and John Cleese which is just amazing.

And there you have it. Five games that I like that apparently everyone else hates, according to Google searches, IMDb and my friends.
