Pokemon Black and White.
I'm dead serious when I say the Pokemon in those games look like they were designed by parapelagic people who happened to be in comas at the time.

In my opinion the games that should never have been made are: WoW, Runescape, Starcraft II, all of the Call of Duty games after 2:Big Red One, Command and Conquer games made after 2003 or 04 whichever was Generals and Zero Hour, any educational game that uses popular video game characters to cash in


I dunno, I actually like playing Runescape. If you play it for what it is, then it's pretty good.

If you want to learn to play, learn to play the guitar IRL. It will be, at least, actually useful.

Not at all. What I think is that, instead of wasting your time learning songs to play a stupid video game, do something that is actually productive. Learning to play an instrument IS productive.

I love WoW! I miss playing it so much. I have a bunch of friends who play and I'm so jealous that I can't join them anymore.

Nightwatch. That game was horrible.

Who cares? Video games are for entertainment and people playing Guitar Hero are getting entertained.

Not really. To me, THAT it is a valid reason to dislike a game. Oh, and I never said I hated it. I do believe it didn't need to be made, like the title of the thread stipulates, but I don't hate it. Do try to keep up.

That is no way a valid reason to dislike a game like that. Saying somebody should get a real instrument is quite a stupid thing.

No, you keep misreading. I said that if you're going to waste time learning to play a song in a silly game console, you might as well try your hands at something productive. Once again, learning to play an instrument IS productive while playing with a plastic guitar isn't.

I see no reason why Guitar Hero exists nor why you're up in arms about my dislike of the game. Unless your overreaction has anything to do with you 'wasting' time with said game.

People would rather play the video game for entertainment. Plus learning those songs on a real guitar would be 100 times harder.

I only played it once. No way in hell was I going to spend that much on one console game.

And we add the cost, yes.

In any case, I dislike the game. Moving on.
