Not sure if I hate any games, indifferent or boring...sure, but not hate. Most games that I have initially disliked I have later liked once I either:
a) played on one that was setup correctly and 100% working or
b) was taught rules and strategy

Granted, sometimes a game just has a little too much catch and shoot and not enough flow (I seem to prefer flow as it feels more entertaining and more adrenaline). So this can make what should be a great game/theme feel flat to me.

I can't think of any title that fall into this category of hate but are great. TAF, TZ, FH, MB, and CV are all examples of highly rated games that don't interest me much after playing them multiple times at different locations. I am open minded enough to assume that they just happen to fall into my earlier stated premises though. Black Knight is a great example of a game that I border line hated until I played jabbles and mofs and realized it was all about the setup.
