Limbo... didn't realize "indie" is an excuse for a crappy product...
EDIT: Seeing this from a programmer's perspective, makes me just sad, really sad.

To be honest, I can't even tell if it was intended to be fun or horror? They missed even that! lol

I noticed about the history of Limbo only after finishing the game, the game is fun but is very short, and the story mhad no sense, these indie games always have some bad things but they are really funny, like Binding of Isaac, their game is funny but game story and introducing video is ultra crappy. But in most cases ppl play them once and never or hardly ever play again =S.

Ok.... please tell me something then...
Silent Hill is horror. TF2 is fun. Limbo is????
Yep, the game has POTENTIAL but it's UNFINISHED

Limbo was awesome imo. I love these style of platformers focusing on imagination, negative space and a memorable experience.

Was thinking the same thing, the game sucks because it isn't horror? I thought it was a fun puzzle platformer myself.

Well, if you want to make it about me, well... I'm a Silent Hill fan, heard of Limbo, picked it up, tried to play it, couldn't......... there's no point...
And the game, the idea, the atmosphere, and everything have so so much potential... but some dudes decided to release not even half of a finished product! Their excuse: 'wwweee're gonna put it on sale, cause it's INDIE and we're lazzyyy to finish it'

I'm a fan of games like Limbo and I feel there is no point to games like Silent Hill. I picked it up, tried to play it, couldn't... there's no point.
I feel that way but obviously both of us are wrong. Both games are right for both of us in our own ways. To each their own. Same with music, every person's body vibrates to a different frequency range or rhythm or tempo in particular...

Nope, the designer in me wants to slap you :))
That's a wrong perception of music, music can be designed to cater to a specific audience, you know?.. Same with games.. same with everything... We, people, aren't that much different from one another, but some choose to deny it ;)

Well, Limbo was catered to me! I love the darkness.

Not sure if trolling, or just raging like a child.

I think you can call To The Moon stupid game too. It doesn't have genre at all. There's no fun in gameplay. It's not horror or action. It's just game telling the story. Or Dear Esther which doesn't have genre too.
And what do you mean by "Seeing this from a programmer's perspective"? Don't you like the code of this game. So, as engineer I don't like TF2, cuz people can't jump in air as it do Scout.
Just explain what you don't like. Nobody understands you

It's a puzzle platformer, if you went in looking for horror you were deeply mistaken.
I see you bashing on a fantastic game that clearly a lot of people enjoyed just because what, you did not enjoy it? You have't even specified a reason and I don't understand how it is half finished, please enlighten me.

Exactly. I am having troubles getting through ZombiU. I hate 'horde defense'.. I hate Doom 3 shadow spawnies behind you that you can only hear then tear you up because in the future we lost all our gaffa tape supplies that were previously used to tape flashlights to guns in a worst case scenario...
To me, Limbo was actually scary, the chase sequences and stuff lol. I get scared of big spiders.

Exactly this. If you go in with the wrong expectations, you're not going to find what you're looking for. Don't blame LIMBO (which, as a puzzle-platformer, is perfectly fine), blame the person who incorrectly told you it was a horror game. It really isn't.

I don't really seem to get your problem with Indie Games.
Don't you see they are exactly the opposite of games like CoD?? They're not made to appeal the masses. If you didn't enjoy it, it probably is not because the developer was lazy as you said. Maybe you just can't seem to get the beauty and excellence of the game.
Sometimes there are games/movies that I do not like because they don't suit me but I recognize they are great, because many times they are

Limbo was excellent in my opinion.
I'm not a programmer but the game itself plays really smooth and without any technical issues, I don't know what it makes you sad about it.

I loved limbo, i have no idea what you're talking about.

Love this. Ballsy statement given all the indie love this game gets. I don't hate it, but I definitely don't love it. Played about 30 minutes and haven't really felt compelled to play further. Will get around to it when the mood strikes.

The Walking Dead - To play it one more time... Its so amazing (To feel all emotions one more time)

lol I thought it was mostly poop. And I'm a fan of Telltale. They just reiterate their mechanics/engine over and over with only subtle improvements. I got tired of the style after so many Sam & Max games that never came to close to the feeling the original gave me.

Also Lineage 2, wish I could start over from scratch :p

yeah, copying scary girl japanese horror film style doesn't work so well in games I think

World of warcraft, not only because now is crap and I miss old days, also for all the time i've lost thanks to that game and maybe I could revive again all those amazing things I enjoyed ( emotions specially ) on it's first 3~ years since release

+1 except because I think it's the plague that took so many gamers away from life as well as good games I could play with them online lol

My thoughts exactly. I loved WoW so much, but it turned boring imo. Obviously it's personal opinion, there was the time when I felt like I've experienced/achieved everything I wanted and is time to stand down. Reviving those days would kick ass.

now you can do "hardcore" raids without giving your life to the game. this is a +
i never got into end game crap. it was all elitist bullshit, look at my potodrak that looks like every other protodrake in dal, because real players where in the field um playing and not idleing like a homo in cities. if you where not geared you didn't get in a raid party. total catch 22, or people milked a guild to get "run" then bailed instead of helping others.
BUT wow player base was elitist fags and though i disliked them feel bliz should have left in a game modes for them. since they keept it going this long, and some rpgs like challenging play modes.

Not for a game but I would erase my memory for The Wire just to rediscover it and fall in love with it all over again

Maybe its not your favorite game, but one that was ruined for you. Keep in mind all the hard and worst parts of the game such as if you got stuck will also be forgotten, and possibly relived. Or is the game so good that the bad will be worth it?
