Okami lacks proper voice acting.

Getting useful items in FFXII is a nothing short of a pain in the ass.

Jacob Potila was actually a Jacob Flotilla of lies.- WarTurkey
Silent Hill's combat can be smelly. I know it's a horror game so you're not supposed to be an unstoppable badass but it feels way too clunky at times. It's a good thing that literally everything else in the game more than makes up for it.

Pokemon games sometimes have a severe problem in lacking certain good types depending on which starter you picked. Fire types in Sinnoh being the absolute worst offender.

Combat in the 3d Fallout games is ASS. Operation Anchorage was a goddamn mistake. The fun of Fallout is exploring this horrific wasteland, scavenging supplies to survive and interacting with all the characters. What do you get when you take all of that out and you're basically left with a CoD mission with Fallout's shooting gameplay? Shit. You get shit.

Dark Souls takes a significant dip in quality after getting the Lordvessel. I can't stand Lost Izalith. It's like they blew their load on Anor Londo then tried to make do with the little bits of dried cum for the rest of the game.

Metal Gear Rising is way too short and the level design is kind of bland. Plus it really could have used a boss rush mode.

In Mass Effect you don't really get rewarded or much of a payoff for being neutral. You have to either be a massive dick or space gandhi to get the most out of it.

MGS1's backtracking segment just really drags on.

Final Fantasy 9's battles take about 4 years to load.

Super Metroid: Can't skip the missile tutorial that appears for every single missile upgrade. Wall-jumping is kinda janky.

Wind Waker: Perhaps one too many filler islands. Hard to say, as the game's biggest shortcomings involve things that aren't in the game, but could've been (a little bit more sea activity, perhaps, like storms, etc)

Super Mario World: Maybe some questionable (albeit extremely minor) level design elements.

The thing about my favorite games is that they're not really flawed at all—not because they're my favorite games, but because if a game has any flaws, it's hard to consider it a favorite.

I actually tried really hard to think of anything for Wind Waker. I don't even mind the filler islands that much tbh. Not every one of them has to be some big packed place with loads going on. If there's a little one with some dude on it with a telescope, neat.

Maybe the fact that the HD version didn't really need to look the way it did could be a flaw, I guess. The original still looks fine.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

If you mean the budget for the game, it's going up Yoshi-P's ass because it sure as shit ain't going into the game.

precision of the mouse will always help in clunky FPS titles simply because it's... well, more precise.

Doesn't really strike a negative in my book because I like quiet time sailing between islands

Goodness gracious, great balls of lightning!
Most of the campaign missions in Starcraft have the same objectives making some of them repetitive.

The main story for Starcraft 2 is complete asinine, especially with that joke of an ending. Nova Covert Ops is good however.

There isn't a Lock/Strafe camera mode for Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando.

Most of the weapons and armor sets in Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal are suck ass compared to the previous game, Going Commando.

Juggernaut and Martyrdom perks in CoD 4.

Marathon/Lightweight/Commando perk combination in MW2 and One Man Army/Danger Close.

You need to buy the DLC to have good zombie maps in Black Ops 2.

The Nissan Skyline, Nissan 350Z, and Acura NSX aren't in NFS: Most Wanted.

The BR isn't hitscan and the netcode is aids in Halo 3.

A lot of cool shit was going to be in Halo 2 before being cut.

The draw distance in San Andreas is awful.

I still dont know why nobody thought Tone was a terrible idea in development. It's like it was designed intentionaly to be the most busted thing they could think of, short of giving it an arc cannon and a Smart-devotion.

"Lets take the most meta chassis from the first game, give it the most meta weapon, but also buff said meta weapon by making it's hibox take up half the frontier, and adding homing rockets to it after every three hits, make one of the lock on's for the homing rockets free, and then also give it Particle wall so that it's guaranteed to utterly fuck everyone at range."
