10 Great Games That Critics Hated But Fans Loved

There’s definitely no denying that some games might have been undeservedly bashed by critics. The reasons why vary from game to game, but there’s a lot of diamonds out there in gaming that have been obscured by plenty of rough.

Return Fire (PS1). It has a Metacritic of 71 but it is one of the best games on PS1. https://www.metacritic.com/...

Warframe. Started life with a 64 on meta but improved quite a bit over the years. I put north of 1000hrs in.

LucasRuinedChildhood92d ago

I suppose that's just a case of the score not updating as the game slowly got better. The PS5 and Switch versions are 85/86.

BlackCountryBob92d ago

Can we address how odd it is for the idea of hated by critics seems to work at anything below 80%? 3 of these 10 have a critics score of 70 or higher and only 1 has a score below 50.

I would say anything below 40 would be bad / hated, 40-59 is ok but missable, 60-69 is functionally average, 70-79 is good, 80-89 is very good, 90-94 is outstanding GOTY candidate, 95+ is genre defining

LucasRuinedChildhood92d ago

Yeah, Alien Isolation with a score of 79 certainly wasn't hated. lol

Huge difference i must admit, but not sure i would notice without 2 screens next to each other.

Not getting this game still, i want a new game and im tired of remasters

Muigi2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

It’s $10 and there are plenty of games out there for you.

Flewid6382d ago

Then its not a huge difference?

Killer2020UK1d 23h ago

Of course you wouldn't, nobody would. If you have never experienced the other, then you don't have the reference needed for comparison.

Sony getting ready to milk some more people on dumb products.... I can see the psvr1 and 2 owner salivating over days gone remaster. Lol. What a ruse song is pulling.

Knushwood Butt1d 16h ago

How can Sony milk customers if it's such a 'dumb product'? If it's so dumb, nobody will buy it, and there's no milking.
Plus, there's nothing preventing people from getting a copy of the PS4 version.

As a PSVR2 owner. Yup. If there’s a VR version I would be there day one.

Greg28011d 19h ago

There are plenty of people who never had a chance to play this game, now they can with the remaster.

Don't understand why people who already played the game complain about a remaster. No one is forcing you to buy it. There are plenty of new games to play

Huge difference where? Besides blue color filter and darker lighting?

Remastered.....

Tedakin2d ago

Sony is now remastering games with 71s on metacritic.

Bathyj2d ago

Like that's a judge of anything
This game got scored before it was released.

andy852d ago

Days gone is 85+. It got heavily marked down at launch for bugs where as others get a free pass for that. It's a fantastic game.

Kosic1d 23h ago

And it's not even a big overhaul remaster. It's list turning up the graphic level by one. It's quite embarrassing, as the original wasn't that bad. And the remaster isn't that noticeable

PanicMechanic1d 15h ago

“And it's not even..”

Bugs bunny NO meme

TheEroica1d 19h ago (Edited 1d 19h ago )

Poorly remastering if images are to be believed.

Tapani1d 17h ago

To me it was very close to The Last of Us Part I. It was that good quality.

PanicMechanic1d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Shut up. Best open world zombie game on the market

I spoiled myself by modding this game on my PC. Genuinely one of the best looking games I've ever seen. Whilst this remaster looks nice it just doesn't compare to that sadly. It shows the effort that these remasters could put in if they wanted

REDGUM2d ago

I so hope this game or DLC for those of us who own the original sells well.
Ive said it before, its an underrated game for sure & was unfairly judged upon release.
Please try this game if you haven't already.

For those who say 'i won't purchase digital only' you can pickup a hard copy for 5 bucks here in Australia, then add the DLC and you have a superb game for $20 or so.

Give it a shot, tell me I'm wrong After completing the game.

Game on gamers.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH2d ago

It was full of bugs at release I wouldn’t call that being unfairly judged. If you want your game to score well then release it in a completed state. Now with that being said I think the game was pretty good.

Knushwood Butt2d ago

It really wasn't.
The worst I encountered was a horde spawning on top of me when exploring a cave.
Did you even play this at launch?

S2Killinit1d 20h ago (Edited 1d 20h ago )

It wasnt full of buggs, it was very playable. That was the excuse for the hit job at launch before people started to speak up about how great the game was.

Lol, theres nothing to charge for. It already looked good on pc.

One of the worst gaming generations, with most games are remasters with less original and new games. Sony is not even trying, they just want the easy buck. Not only that, they are remastering recent games like LOU, Horizon ZD, GOT, Spider Man, Shadow of the Colossus, God Of War, and now Days gone.... with many other masters.
