You aren't the only person. Even though the Harry Potter games keep getting worse and worse I still love them and have to keep playing them every time a new one comes out !! I have them all.
Games that were thrashed but I liked (not great but alright) include Legendary, Godzilla Unleashed and Two Worlds.
Two Worlds on the 360 was better when patched but you wouldn't know that when reading the initial release reviews where there were a ton of problems and a poor ass demo.
haha i loved clayfighter 63 1/3 too! i totally knew it was bad and ripped off other fighters, but i think the crazy (and large) cast of characters and the slapstick comedy won me over. it was flawed but i still had a blast playing it, and i actually did dive into what little nuances the game had. tao feng, on the other hand, was a different story. i loved the graphics, the interactive environments, and the limb and visible body damage (which, given who was behind it, i kind of expected that). but i just couldnt get into it. i just found it too clunky and not fun. i wanted to like it before i played it, but playing it made that impossible
and i have no shame in admitting to being a wrestling fan, or a sd vs raw fan. the madden effect it has suffered lately has kept me from actually purchasing the games every year tho
oh, and when i was younger i actually purchased shaq fu, and didnt it was that bad a game. of course as i got more into fighters i realize its garbage, but still dont think its quite as bad as people make it out to be. whew, glad to get that off my chest haha
I absolutely agree w/ the choices of Sonic Heroes, P.N. 03, Roadkill & True Crime: L.A. And Beatdown: Streets of Vengeance? One of the most underrated games I can think of. Pure fighting bliss ;)
I like the Haryy Potter games because they felt kinda like RPGS's especially the first one. I owned the GBA vers. of Chamber of Secrets which was kinda good but god forbid Goblet Of Fire that sucked
I loved Sonic Heroes; I just don't think it was necessary to have you play through basically an easy medium and hard mode to get to the end. But that said, I thought it was a great game. Frankly, I think Sonic Adventure 1, 2 and Sonic Heroes were more or less disliked retroactively after Shadow and Sonic 06 came out.
omg True Crime, that was the last schatsoft I ever bought. That was the final straw that made me stalwart in never impulse buying again. I was pining for a GTA and got a total asian tird. I beta tested Planet side, not terrible but nothing special.
