Definitely littlebigplanet. I can understand why it's good for kids, but when I hear grown men saying how great it is, I just want to puke. It's shyte. I mean really, what is the fascination for grown-ups who ram up the arse of this game like it's the best thing ever invented?
Another one for me is halo. I really can't understand why this game is so highly rated either.
And faith! KotOR is genuine class! Not sure about the new MMO though :/

Right-trigger fires a weapon, X/B is reloading or melee, A is jump. Of course I can only account for the Xbox games, but I'd imagine you'd find a similar thing on the PC or Playstation.
If someone could elaborate it would help.
I prefer melee being on a bumper/trigger... but what really got me was the 'feel' of the controls. It felt rather clunky to me, and from the beginning crash scene I just couldn't get into it. And that's even with greatly enjoying the depravity of the game.

No need to apologise, I'm pretty certain it will suck. KotOR was never ever ever ever intended to be MMO. It's like in a few years turning mass effect into an MMO franchise. What's the sense?

Absolutely none. I think it's funny how so many jumped onto Rift while waiting for SW: TOR and GW2... and both of these are going to suck  They'll be back playing Rift soon enough.

I know, I just couldn't get into it. Mainly it was the combat that threw me off.

Yes, I played it on console originally and it was the first propper RPG I played. So it was very different for me. Suits PC controls far better.

See I'm a fan of action rpg's. I don't like games like KOTOR and Dragon Age Origins, which is another game I greatly appreciated but could not get into.

Each to his own. I know why KotOR and dragon age etc are seemingly boring. The combat is good if you like to think about strategy.
Personally I've never seen the fascination with MMO's at all either. Why would I want a bunch of cunts running around ruining my game? That's what usually happens from my experience with them. Give me an AI controlled NPC any day of the week thanks.

<---- Socializer. Why else would you want an MMO?
Was your only "MMO" WoW (which is not)?

I liked Bioshock, but the controls and gameplay kept me from thinking it was as great as everyone else thought it was. But as far as games I knew were awesome but just couldn't play very long was the Knights of the Old Republic games.
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? KOTOR is my favorite game of all time. how did you dislike it???
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.
