I heard that! :P
Oh, you're definitely not the only one.
I know, I just had to mess with ya a bit!
LMS's emphasis on "committee opinions" depresses me a little. I'm not some crazy hipster who'd take Superman 64 over OoT... but nonetheless, some of the funnest gaming experiences of my life have been with games that most people don't especially care for. Contact is one of my top ten favorite games ever, Yoshi Touch and Go is one of my favorite DS games, I love the Sega Game Gear, etc.
Point is, if you stick to a strictly "triple-A game" diet, I think you miss a lot of what gaming has to offer - most notably, the element of surprise. Everybody knows Resident Evil 4 is going to be awesome before they play it, but few expect to be bowled over by the Shinobi IIIs and Mole Manias of the world, and experiences like those are always really memorable.
Well I went into Twilight Princess expecting overrated trash, and went into Ocarina of Time expecting the best game ever. Guess which one I prefer now. Oh wait, I already revealed it. Whatever.
