Hypocrite Games

Prof. Pokerus
Have you ever had an adamant opinion about a game or series, but when something happened, your opinion changed completely?

For example, I originally wasn't planning on getting a PS3 and I'm a Kingdom Hearts fan. I had a whole list of reasons why they shouldn't make Kingdom Hearts games for the PS3 and make them for the PS2, Wii, and DS only. Now because of the PS3 price drop, I'm going to be getting a PS3. For some odd reason, I can't remember anything on that old list of reasons not to make Kingdom Hearts games for the PS3. Now I think it's a great idea.

Has something like this happened to anyone else?
 
I thought the PS3 and Wii would be awesome because of the PS2 and Gamecube.

I was replaying Gears of War on my 360 last night.
 
I was going to buy a 360, but then I was told that I'm not allowed to play M games, so I got a Wii.

Does that count?

As a fair warning, If Disney has their way it'll probably end up on the Wii. If they don't, it'll probably be multiplatform ps3/360.

Given how much work Nomura's already put into it, I'd probably put my money on this one being on the PS3 and 360 and any future ones being on the Wii. Keep in mind though that we won't see much of KHIII anyway until after Versus XIII comes out, because as he put it, he likes to stick with one project at a time.

Anyway, for me, it was the Star Ocean series. I don't know if I'm a hypocrite or not when it comes to these games, because I love the first two. But the third one's story really screwed things up for me. So I'm actually a bit leary to like the series anymore.
 
I played Call of Duty 2: The Big Red One on my GCN way back when. I despised it. And I grouped it with all the other WWII games and labeled each WWII game after that as boring and stupid.

But then I played Call of Duty: World at War.

EDIT: Oh, and Gears of War, believe it or not. I always thought Gears was just another shooter, but then I tried it.

He makes a good point.

Another example is how I hated The Black Gate in Lord of the Rings Return of the King, but now it's one of my favorite levels.
 
Well I was originally apposed to Pokemon Gold/Silver remakes but the instant they were announced I loved the idea.:)
 
when i first played Gears, i thought it was boring becuase i was so used to Halo with jumping, and plus i sucked horribly. ive noticed that most people who dont like Gears are Halo fanboys, CoD fanboys or just plain suck at it. then i started playing it more often and got better. now its my favorite TPS.
WarHammer 40K: Dawn of War 2. i loved the first one, because unlike most RTSs, it had a similar gameplay style to StarCraft (which i think should be the only way to play and RTS, but whatever). then comes DoW2 and rather than an RTS, its an RTT. plus despite the fact that my graphics card (a GeForce 8400) is way beyond the minimum (GeForce 6600) it still lags to the point where i want to vomit. and its powered by Steam, which only diehard Valve fans seem to like. the best thing about it is the inclusion of the Tyranids.
Star Wars: The Force Unleahsed. like the critics say, it was overhyped. i saw the tech demo, and it was incredible. and they said that it would be that way on every system. i have it currently on PS2. it needs some serious cleaning up. but when the Sith Package comes out, ill be getting that on 360.
Star Wars: Republic Commando. its what happens when Halo and Star Wars, with a little Ghost Recon and Metroid, mix. i still really like this game. but the multiplayer lacks. and it can get boring when youve played campaign to the point that youve memorized practically the entire game (mostly Geonosis and RAS, and just a little bit of Kashyyyk).
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition: Colonies Edition. a little too laggy despite the fact that my computer surpasses the minimum requirements by a mile. when i got it i though itd be like Gears, with cover and what not. typical Capcom game: stuck in the 90s with nothing really interesting except for perhaps the design of a few creatures. thats what i get for paying $20 on a Capcom game.
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. its still a good game. it just needs a lot more maps, a conquest-type mode, and not false advertising (the back of the case said that it has unmatched graphics and physics. graphics is partially true as idTech 4(i think) is one of the most powerful graphics engines in the world. physics, not really. when i hear physics, i think of mainly ragdoll. theres no such things as ragdoll in ETQW, but the vehicle physics are acceptable. (im a physics *****)).
thats it for now.

Oh god, tl;dr.

Anyway, a few years back I wasn't a fan of the Final Fantasy series. At all. Now I own I, II, IV, V, VI, VII, IX, X, XII, Tactics, TA, TA2, Crystal Chronicles, and Crisis Core. And I have at least 400+ Final Fantasy songs on my iPod. I have no idea why. O_O
 
Guitar Hero is way superior than Rock Band RB just has a long list of songs, GH has better features.

I used to like NDS and hate PSP...A week or so ago I traded my NDS in for a PSP
