I can't agree that they are garbage games, but I also don't see why BB is so hyped either. I finally got to play it and I was rather disappointed in it's level design and direction. It is the most confusing of the games. I ended up finding most of the secrets just trying to find the main progression, which, IMO, isn't a good thing. I shouldn't be finding all the secret stuff before finding the main stuff while not playing with a guide.
The fact you expected narrative story telling tho is why you hated them. These are not narrative games. The story is told through the environment, and the focus is on the gameplay. They literally write the plot after designing the game and the levels as a mere way of connecting them loosely with a story that ultimately doesn't matter.
