What game series have you tried to play because you were recommended it or wanted to try it out, but did it just not cling to you?
I did that with Disgaea and Resistance.

Pokemon.

I didn't grow up with it.  It just seems like the same thing over and over and it's a little kid's version of Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior.  There's no strategy, there's no true RPG to it and it is something I can't embrace.  I just can't do it.  And the ten million games are just money grabs by that company.  Pokemon Red vs. Gold vs. Black, vs whatever other games they have out there.

It's not for me.

Legend of Zelda. Those games just never really did it for me. I liked the two on the Nintendo 64 as a kid but when I went back to them years later they seemed a little lack luster. They all just seem like the same old thing over and over (excluding Zelda 2 and the ones for the CD-I). It seems the ones that are different are worse than the ones that are the same as all the rest though. That is just a series I can't get into.

Earthbound for me.  I had fun with the game at first, but I quickly got lost early on in the game.  This was years ago, and if I were to play it again, I'd probably love it.  But I've never had much of an interest to go back into it yet.

Also, Halo.  I am terrible at FPS games, and Halo is no exception.  I'm fine at Metroid Prime, though.  Metroid Prime is a lot more streamlined and is much easier, in my opinion.

This is a really great question.

Two game series come to mind -

1. Pokémon
I don't know why exactly but I have absolutely zero interest in catching them. I really don't care what they evolve into and I certainly don't care to earn a badge. I'm not really a big fan of RPG's and this series seems to make RPGing even more mundane.

2. Romance of the Three Kingdoms
The first thing that comes to mind when I think of this series is maps and numbers. I know that the later installments had more features but thinking about playing those games makes me think of maps and numbers too. There's not necessarily anything wrong with maps and numbers but I just don't excited about looking at them.

The Assassin's Creed series. I always thought they looked really interesting and fun, I love the look of them, everything. Then I borrowed some of them from my aunt and I just could not get into them. They just were not what I expected. I don't even know what I expected honestly, but I just found them boring and very slow-paced.

I actually have a few:
1. Call of Duty - I cannot stand the game overall, everyone else seems to like it, but I have pretty much always found it to be really boring and filled with twelve year olds telling me what they did to my mom last night (did not like the single player either, it was lackluster). 
2. The Legend of Zelda - I could not tell you why I don't like the series, I just can't get into it.
3. Assassin's Creed - Unlike many other open world games, Assassin's Creed is too slow paced. Every action I made seemed as if it took an eternity to complete. There was also the matter of the story, and I really didn't like the fact that you were only replaying memories in the animus. 
4. Halo - It's just a slow and boring game. I don't really care what anyone says, it's not a great shooter. I do think that the multiplayer [map-making] is cool though. 
5. Fallout - Dull. I can't stress that enough. It's also the reason why I loved and hated The Elder Scrolls series. 

There are probably some other game series, but I can't really think of anything at the moment.

imamonster : ^^^^HATE

I personally couldn't get into Pokémon. It became too big of a game and to me it's the same thing every time just new stuff added into it. Another series would probably be Mario and Legend Of Zelda. But these are a bit different. With Mario I like certain games but I dont actually play them all and follow the series. Same with Legend Of Zelda. I think Majoras Mask is the only game I like in the series. Other than that I think they've become too overrated now.

imamonster : I couldn't agree more. I enjoyed one Megaman game as a kid, but now I can't find one that I like. And Final Fantasy is just...awful in my opinion. It just isn't my kind of game. I tried FF and FF II, but I got lost and bored of FF, and bored with FF II since it went on and on and never really had me from the start. My biggest gripe was with the randomly spawning battles. I would get attacked ten times travelling from one city to the next. It's like Pokemon only the tall grass is everywhere (even indoors sometimes)! xD
I hate random battles, because:
1. They make no sense
and
2. They're annoying

Also, I don't get the fuss over the Street Fighter games. One tourney fighter is just like the next for me. In fact, I found Shaq-Fu much more entertaining than Street Fighter and most other tourney fighters, since it actually had a story to follow and creative graphics and design.

For some reason, I could never get into many RPG's like Final Fantasy and Earthbound/Mother. Other games I can't get into are Halo, Call of Duty, other FPS's of that sort. Both of those genres just never did it for me. Also, superhero/Star Wars/TV show games. They suck

A good chunk of RPGs really. I couldn't get into Golden Sun (I got lost and gave up), nor most of the Final Fantasy series (Except Tactics, for whatever reason). Most of them pick up story WAY too late in the game, and the combat system gets incredibly dull for most of them. Just select a command, maybe press a button or two, and hope for the best. I like Pokemon and all, but only in small chunks.
I could never really get into any beat 'em ups or fighters either (Except for Super Smash Bros.) because I find them too repetitive and with too steep of a learning curve for my taste.
The other one is Megaman. They just weren't quite my cup of tea (At least, the retro ones weren't).

I will admit but I just can't get into the Elder Scrolls series. I just can't. I played Skyrim over at a friends house on the PS3. Never got into it. Played on the PC with mods....still couldn't get into it. I have been told to try oblivion.....guess what happened? Never got into it. I mean I am not saying the games aren't bad it just wasn't....for me. I like First-Persons and I love Fantasy games...but I just can't seem to get into the Elder Scrolls at all. Sorry folks.

The Mario series. I grew up in the era where Mario had an uprising, but I sort of dodged the fanwagon somehow.
Also, the Assassin's Creed series is nothing special, and the games get duller with every new addition. Even Black Flag was boring, imo.

The ones that get me are Mario except for the rpg games.  I'm horrible at platformers.
Sonic just too fast for me all the spinning gets me sick.
Pokemon is just toooooo grindy and not much story line to keep me entertained.   A good rpg needs a good story line and character development which pokemon in my opinion does not have.
Any FPS games because well I don't do well in them.  I get killed easily lol!

This might be the part where I draw in the ire of the internet as a whole, but I don't like Mega Man or Sonic The Hedgehog. They're both just too over the top.

Also, I cannot stand Team Fortress 2 or League of Legends. Just thinking about those games makes me want to spit.

Go ahead, grab your torches and pitchforks. I'll wait patiently.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
