I’m talking about games that you still like but you had no idea were criticized so much.

The perfect example for me is Sonic Unleashed.

I admit that the game has its bad things, but I would have never imagined that it was so hated at the time… Although, that could be extended to the entire Sonic franchise, since for many years I was not aware at all of that “Sonic was never good”, “Sonic had a rough transition to 3D” nonsense.

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II. Bought of for 9€ and had a lot of fun with it. Sure, the story was not as good as the first one and it’s a lot shorter, but the new gameplay was great and it has a much better final boss than the first game.

      I was just really really disappointed with the controls on the Wii. The first one was so intuitive and they just went and changed it for no reason.

          I tried the PC version the other day for the first time, to finally see what the real game looks like. Might be nostalgia, but I thought the Wii version is actually better. I should install a Wii emulator to properly compare them.
