I did a search for "disappointing" and "letdown", no luck. Close/merge if needed.Now this is just for games that are disappointing, not necessarily bad, but just disappointed you.


I say Assassin's Creed and Superman Returns. AC was hyped up to be the biggest game of the year, but once I played it, I was bored to death before the first target. And Superman got delayed for 6 F'N months and the almighty EA still couldnt make even a half playable game.

World of Warcraft, the plot went to hell for the sake of some extra money. Basically, they sold out IMO

Battle for Middle Earth II, promised us things it simply did not deliver. Was a total letdown compared to what i was expecting.

Any of the Abe's Oddysee sequals

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, so rigged with bugs then had to re-released as GRAW 2.


That's it.....for now

i agree with Angel, Abe was cool but the sequels were not quite equel, i didnt mind soulbrew but something about it was missing, idont know why.

Red Steel

i thought abe's exodus was better than the first, hmm...

the most recent disappointments on a grand scale to me are,

Stranglehold
assassins creed
jericho
onimusha 3
the darkness
kane and lynch
blacksite area 51
simpsons
conan
lost planet
NHL 2k8
prince of persia--all sequels

Other than that, I found it to be okay.

Only game I've played recently that I can say I was actually disappointed in was Mass Effect. Oblivion is also heading to that category as well, but it at least is a bit more interesting.

KOTOR and KOTOR2 also belong there.

Ah, KoToR II is definatly up there. It was real good until the final planet, to me anyways.

I quit it about a quarter through, myself.

I just liked the interactions with the party a whole lot, for that I forgave everything except the shitty as final parts.

- munch's oddesy
godawful transition from 2d to 3d
- red steel, for obvious reasons
- superman returns
- any command and conquer game..for some reason they really bugged me
- heroes of might and magic 4...after playing 3 and 5, 4 looks and plays like total crap

Given EA's track record, i was excited about hearing that they were helming Superman. Other than the flying, there was no point in playing this game. I agree, it was monumentally disappointing

They did Batman Begins which I actually enjoyed, so I thought there was a glimmer for Superman, but I still cant believe how bad it was considering how long it was in development.

Assassin's Creed, for being a genuinely bad game in so many huge ways when it could have been astounding as a whole if more work went into the fundamentals and basics instead of the animations and graphics.

FFXII, for lacking that emotional center that the great FF game's are known for, also for lacking well developed, interesting characters that feel organically important in context to the adventure as a whole.

FFVIII, for the same reasons as FFXII but also because the draw system was atrocious, the reliance on GF's were annoying and forced the player to watch too many summon animations, and the romantic relationship between Squall and Rinoa felt contrived to work because of convenience, and not because the characters really connected.

Gears of War, I love this game very much, but the story is what disappointed me. I was very excited about the plot, and thought that the world would have a very interesting back story. Though, the plot itself was barebones and generic, barely working on a level beyond simply moving you from point A to point B and so on.

Are you.. are you serious?

yeah, Gears of war had no story, it only hinted towards one.

The first play through, i missed the dialogue which explained why phoenix was in prison. The second play through i heard the ONE line of dialogue devoted to explaining his incarceration.

Originally posted by Blax_Hydralisk

Yes.

The lore they created for the world is actually quite in depth and interesting, there's a lot of backstory that you can find if you look through online sources.

Though, you wouldn't know it from playing the game, it's as barebones a story as I've ever seen, and that's what was disappointing.

Also, as RR says, they just didn't explain very much.

For instance, did you know that Gen. Ramm is, according to the lore, the one who killed Fenix's father? This could have been an excellent plot device, and driven the story further beyond "Okay, go kill Ramm", but this was never even hinted at during the actual game, which is a shame.

Fable is the textbook let-down. All this hype about choices affecting plot and character development and then that's what we got. Maybe I was just spoiled by Morrowind, though.

I actually thought Fenix was pissed because he killed that guy half way through the game.

My most recent disappointing game is definitely Assassins Creed.

He/She was obviously not playing is right, lasers, bombs, and bullets firing off on large scale. The units accuraty is also affects by their position, e.i. shoting down on something gives you better range and accuracy.

There are so many elements in that game you really have to think about everything before you go raiding off.

The Darkness was so uber disappointing, i nearly cried

Shoot me in the back, flame me, bash non-stop for what I'm about to say...but the Morrowind series has always been boring to me and I'd only play it to the end if I forced myself despite the torture. Don't know why...but its just not my style...which is weird because I love First Person games and I love RPGs.

No doubt for me was Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.

After falling in love with Sands of Time and looking forward to another romantic adventure with the Prince. Warrior Within was like a bi-polar date with a psycho chick. The puzzles were like meh...the story was like...oookay...the romatic music gone...and the image and character of that cocky yet charming Prince completely gone. Ubisoft drop the ball with the changes.

well i agree it was good but Abe the original was very unique, it was a story that was new and the gameplay was interesting to me, puzzle solving, smarts instead of brutality

(may be small spoilers but surely theres no one around playing the 2nd abe and not heard of it before, just a warning anyway )

the second one had tonnes of the same sort of stuff and it was a great game, it was just not new i suppose, there was a similiar feel to it, too samey for example Factory--->Jungle--->Temple/mines---->back to factory with new powers--->stop badguy, blow factory

That's why i found it dissappointing, it was the same thing just a few differences.

Th gas add was a nice move, but it still had nothing on the first one.

I suppose it's one of those games that set the bar too high for a sequal to be successful IMO

Those are actually the 2 that I have.

I actually enjoyed Duelist of the Roses when I first started. It was fun and I expected it to get better and I expected certain things to take place.

Once I realized I had reached the pinnacle of the game and that the pinnacle didn't go any higher than my Metatarsals (bones in the feet), I realized there was no point in further playing and that it sucked in retrospect.

Now with Falsebound Kingdom...........I realized that sucked right away and put that mess to rest.

Ugh.

Love all of the Handheld Yu-Gi-Oh! games that I've played though.

Final Fantasy 9

Mortal Kombat Armaggedon.....

I mean, Deception was awesome and it could have been better with more characters but when armaggedon came out, it was all crap and I was able to beat konquest like three times in one day....Pathetic. And the game did not even give me the excitment to beat the game with every character. Kreate a Kharacter was pretty good but their is just something about it I did not like.....need more options?

The first 3-D Mortal Kombat Game. Can't remember the name and I own it. That's how disappointed it was for me. I loved the 2-D Mortal Kombat Games.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

I love both. I never understood why people hated 3-D. i have played MK since the first one and I kept buying the games ever since.

The recent console only games have been good, but the first 3D one wasnt too good.

MK4

ace combat 6: compared to the 2 ps2 installments it has virtually no levels, no planes...no relatively original missions (in that u dont have any that differ from the main bulk)

dead rising: repetative after a very short time (once uve used everything possible as a weapon)

tenchu z: control were not as intuitive as the earlier versions

enter the matrix: nice how it was weaved in with the film plot but the controls and general gameplay were terrible

americas 10 most wanted: perhaps the most ridiculously crap game i've ever had the misfortune of playing

Well, although Armageddon was disappointing (in general) and way overhyped, I wouldn't quite say it was all crap, but the Konquest mode was definitely short compared to Deception's. Not to mention, things like Taven's ground pound and time freeze just made the Konquest mode too damn easy as a whole.

The thing that disappointed me about Armageddon most though, was the Krypt. There wasn't much in it (compared to the ones in Deadly Alliance and Deception), and you could just automatically unlock everything in the Krypt by getting all the hidden/extra items in Konquest mode.
And then there's the lack of character profiles...

Then again, I don't really see how that mode in particular could've been much better than it already was.

Hmm. I guess some people just couldn't adapt to having 2 or more fighting styles (and to use them together as combos and all that stuff), or they didn't like characters having weapons?

Whatever the reasons may be, I never quite understood why people hated the 3-D MKs either...
I mean, regardless of the changes made throughout the series (both big and small), all the 3-D games still had the Mortal Kombat feel to them, so why the hate? (to those who at least liked the 2-D games)

Didn't feel like a Mortal Kombat Game at all to me.

Oh.
I meant before it came out (sorry. Should've specified there).

Armageddon was overhyped before it came out because people were expecting it to be like the best MK game ever since it was gonna have all the characters from both the old and recent games (which it did of course), but even that didn't make the game that good as a whole...

I know armageddon was the last one for that Generation of consoles

What they need to do for the next game is make it a bit more fast paced like Tekken and soul caliber.

AC and Timeshift.

Some of the missions go by really quick, even on Veteran.

For the people who aren't able to participate in online play, I can imagine it being disappointing for them if they're just stuck with the campaign.

- Super Smash Brothers Brawl

There. I said it.

It's sad that I don't even have to play the game yet to know it'll be most disappointing (compared to Melee) in many regards.
R.I.P. Mewtwo and other awesome characters...

They didn't even de-clone Ganondorf, give Wolf and Falco an original final smash, etc.

Also, this is coming from someone who isn't much of an online player, so I hardly care for Brawl's online mode.
There have been other games with online play that weren't that good as a whole.

Mewtwo was crap to and fro. I won't miss him. They brought back the popular one that didn't suck, that's all.

Actually, Mewtwo's the only non-clone vet that didn't come back (yes, I'm one of those who views Toon Link as a tacky Young Link excuse), he just happened to suck like two of the three clones that didn't return. All I'd've asked for is five more characters that I had in mind.

While it's true Mewtwo wasn't nearly as good as he could've been in Melee, he had so much potential to be better in Brawl. I mean, look at how much they beefed up Bowser, who was one of the worst characters in Melee. They could've easily done the same to Mewtwo, but nope. They f*cking cut him. Inexcusable. Inconceivable.

You may not miss him, many others and myself still will.

I could care less about Jiggs. Although she's good and all, I never used her much.


Brawl's still a most disappointing game as a whole (not just because of no Mewtwo). As I said, it's sad that I don't even have to play the game yet to know this.

This isn't a Brawld thread, but who cares, I wanna say this. Jigglypuff in Brawl, wtf?! Why?! Possibly the dumbest excuse of a character, let alone a Pokemon. I may not know too much about Pokemon, but Mewtwo is defenitly better than Jigglypuff. Should've left Jigglygay out of Brawl...

I don't like pokemon, I don't like Jigglypuff at all.

I'm not sure I've ever been disappointed by a game. Maybe because I don't overhype things, just take them for what they are.

I haven't bought a game in a long time. Probably because money is short at the moment.

Then seriously, it's not something you know, nor something I kno weither, but there are enough thins shown for me to know that this game will satisfy my expectations beyond what I anticipated. They've shown clearly to have taken just about every aspect of Smash Bros. from the past that meant something, and added depth to it to thepoint that the game is like an epic more than a party game. With what little reception of the game has been shown to the public (Famitsu magazine), it's looking to be the most promising Wii game since the console came out.

"As a whole", the game is shaping up to be everything SSB64, and SSBM was times five. There's practically not a single thing in the game that they haven't shown touching upon to the point of perfection, and if that's not enough to compensate for dumping a single sucky character (who was, by metagame standards, the worst in the game), then just hope that his apparent replacement (Lucario) sucks enough to fill the gap.

Not really...
Actually, that's far beyond the case.

They spent so much time on stickers and other relatively insignificant features, that they forgot about strengthening the most important part of the game: the characters

The clones remain unchanged for the most part, they did nothing to improve the sucky characters, etc.
And unlike Melee, Brawl wasn't rushed, so they had all these months to improve them, along with adding many other unique characters, yet they decide to waste it to incorporate advertising ploys (like the "masterpiece" demos and what not). Simply pathetic.

Originally posted by First_Tsurugi06

Right ...

Although I haven't played the game myself yet, it basically seems the majority of development was spent on the addition of menial little features rather than the core of the game.

Sakurai and the Smash team were lazy, clones and repeating attacks are just unacceptable. Nintendo didn't necessarily drop the ball, but they didn't deliver either. Although the game will still be amazingly fun (if the online works properly) and will have long long lasting value, it won't be winning many 'Game of the Years' because really, it doesn't deserve it.

Brawl's basically a rehashed Melee with online mode and some new characters in it, which mean nothing since half seem to be clones anyway. Is that bad? No. But its not what people wanted and expected on Nintendo's biggest current franchise.

As I said, just because Mewtwo wasn't as good as he could've been in Melee doesn't mean he couldn't of been beefed up in Brawl, like they did with Bowser, as he sucked in Melee too.

It's Mewtwo. One of the most f*cking powerful Pokemon ever. Everyone knows a Pichu wouldn't compare to him outside the borders of Melee. He could've been easily improved in Brawl.

If you honestly believe it's right for a character to be cut just because "they sucked", then by that logic, I guess Kirby should've gotten the boot as well, since he was around the bottom (with Mewtwo) of Melee's tier list.


As for that Anubis dog thing (Lucario), I don't hope anything for him. Replacing one of the most respected 1st generation Pokemon (who was a legendary) with that easy-to-annihilate fighting/steel type is just one of the dumbest mistakes Sakurai's ever made.

Who wanted R.O.B. the f*cking Robot anyway? Not anyone I know.

It's because they know they can make money by producing the same game five times and people will buy it. Why? Cos they are familiar with it and it makes them feel like they're good at games.

Gauntlets are Gilgamesh. Lucifer are energy swords akin to Vergil's but detonated in fancy way.

Removal of Wall Run and replacing it with quite a retarded move and explaining it by the thing that "there's not enough walls"=bad news, but in terms of gameplay it's OK. Could have been more than 7 missions with Dante, through.

I just feel that if you can't perfect a game series and game dynamics in four games, over two generations of consoles, then there're issues.

Although it's Capcom, hardly got a bad track record.
