Why I love this game(s):
Monster Hunter series:
It is an interesting game.Capcom have
made an excellent job making the
game.Their graphic lab have also
achieved a sky-high achievement.This
game is one of the most-sold games
from Capcom.This game is a RPG all
about a hunter killing some monsters.
Why I hate this game:
Pac-Man:
For me,this game doesn’t have any
purpose nor mission.Its graphic sucks
and the creator seems like running out
of idea when they made this game
because this game is TOO DAMN
BORED!!!
