Hate is a strong word in my book. But there are some I dislike.

The big war shooter series of games. Mostly for being such shallow annual cash-in games, and I do not particularly understand the fascination over the multilayer. This includes but it not limited to COD, Battlefield, Medal of Honor, etc.

The GTA series. I had some fun with it back in the day, but after a while I got really burnt out on the gameplay, incredibly generic story lines with unlikable thug characters, and increasingly juvenile sense of "mature" humor.

The Pokemon series. Again, huge cash-in series. What do they have 5 releases per year? I got out of Pokemon when I was about 11 years old, and never had the desire to get back into it.

Harvest Moon. I don't really have a good reason to dislike it other than, yet again, it's another series that sees tons of releases that do not seem significant or unique.

Minecraft, or any similar "time waster" game where there is really no point other than to fool around for weeks and months on end.

it's only fun when you play with people that you know, or that you're winning against the others. kinda like a vs fighting game and that would sum up the fun factor for me then i get bored

Which Games/Game series do you feel that you do not like personally but everyone else seems to love?

That's kind of strange.

Then again, I found Xenoblade Chronicles overrated, yet everyone loved that.

Yeah, that's my choice. 7/10 game that gets praised as being the Wii's best offering. If it was released on the PC, it wouldn't nearly get the praise or critical reception that it received on the Wii. The story was mediocre, the characters were bland, the character models were atrocious, and the Monados' capability of foreseeing the future got irritating after 10 hours in. Also, the controls aren't ideal, I'd much rather play it on mouse and keyboard. The only thing that the game had strongly going for it is the immersive/visually impressive world, which showcased what the Wii was capable of. Also the fact that the game wasn't nearly as broken as White Knight Chronicles was, though WKC2 fixed alot of the gripes I had with the first game.
Now in my own personal opinion, I thought that the story was incredibly engaging and the characters very likable and interesting and I will agree with you the character models do kind of suck. However, I thought the gameplay was really great. Now it's not perfect but it is really excellent in my opinion. I felt like the game was not perfect but that it was an imperfect masterpiece. It's definetely one of my favorite games ever.
