10 Video Game Franchises Nobody Admits To Liking

1. World Of Warcraft

Call Of Duty Duke Nukem The Sims
Activision Blizzard

What Everyone Says: "World of Warcraft is a game for anti-social nerds who've never left their parents' basement."

You can blame South Park for much of the popular derision for World of Warcraft, an enormously popular MMORPG that hasn't ever been able to shake the unsavoury reputation that precedes it.

Even though gaming is more mainstream than ever, and Warcraft even has its own movie now, there's still the prevailing perception that its membership is made up of addicted, unhealthy geeks who prefer the online world to the real one. If you're ditching plans to play WoW (let's face it, we've all done it), you probably won't admit to it.
