The Metroid Zero Mission Countdown Thread

[A Black Falcon]

Similarly, third-person behind-the-character games generally are not my thing. I've played a few here and there, but it's just not a kind of game that I play often, or that usually interest me.

I do like Enclave (Xbox/PC) and Draconis (Dreamcast), because those are medieval hack-and-slash games, and I do like beat 'em ups and medieval-themed games. I also thought Oni for the PC was pretty good (mostly for the beat 'em up gameplay, though,the gun side was boring), but other than that... I have a couple of Tomb Raider games, never got more than a level or two into them. I've played an hour or something of Gears of War 2, didn't exactly interest me. That's as much console FPS as third-person game though, gameplay-wise, so that shouldn't be too surprising. :)

As for GTA, I have GTA3 for PS2, but have never stuck with it at all... it's entertaining for a little bit (driving around causing chaos and maybe occasionally doing the missions), but quickly gets old and I drop it and almost never go back. That pulls the camera back more though, so it's not really in this category... it applies more in the "open-world games" thing I mentioned in my last post.

I'd much rather play a whole lot of other kinds of games than either of the above kinds of games. It's kind of too bad that they're the most popular things right now, along with FPSes, another one that would definitely go in that 'not THAT interested' category along with the two of them.
