Most disappointing video game

[Ratchetcomand]

What games you think where disappointing.

My list

Devil May Cry 2
Dragon Ball Z: Sagas
Final Fantasy 12
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly
Predator: Concrete Jungle
Ratchet: Deadlocked
Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex
Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (video game)
Sonic and the Secret Rings

[brok3n]

I don't think Deadlocked was disappointing at all.

[Ratchetcomand]

^I was disappointed with the game because it was to short, to easy, everything limted.

[brok3n]

I actually thought it was the most expansive of the PS2 versions.

[Vengeance]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006
the most dissapointing game, EVER. i wouldn't mind if it was called Sonic Chaos 2 or some shit like that but the fact that it shares the same name as the very first game makes it all the worse.

Devil May Cry 2
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly
Lair
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Pokemon Diamond
Crash Twinsanity
Clive Barker's Jericho
Nights: Journey of Dreams
Worms Open Warfare 2
Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004

and many more that I can't be bothered to remember.

[kirby22]

here's my list:


sonic and the seret rings
mario and sonic at the olympic games
spyro enter the dragonfly
luigis mansion
super mario 64 ds

[Vekta101]

Spyro: A Hero's Tail
Crash Bandicoot: Nitro Kart
AVP: Extinction

[Techne]

OMGAH

DBZ: SAGAS!
Worst game I ever played.
I was soooo disappointed, it looked so bad ass but blam, gayyy.

[PunisherAB]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 Thought this was going to be Sonic's comeback...lookalikes his retirement.
Lair Damn you Factor 5, you disappoint me.
Clive Barker's Jericho I hated it, it a real disappointment
Nights: Journey of Dreams I love the first two Saturn Versions (the Orginal and Christmas), but this one was a real disappointment.
Halo 3 Next to Bioshock, Call of Duty 4, and Crysis, Halo 3 was a disappointment for me for a shooter and a sequel.
Super Paper Mario Should have stayed on the Gamecube.

BTW just because it a disappointment to me, doesn't mean that all these games suck :P

[Ranmakuu]

Shadow The Hedgehog

Awkward camera makes things worst and the guns are barely useless and the story was awful. Sonic Team you disapponit me once again.

Pokemon Battle Revoution

I thought it will have many elements from the staduim series but no they added whole bunch of stuff on there that is pointless expect for the WiFi play.

[Vengeance]

Shadow The Hedgehog

Awkward camera makes things worst and the guns are barely useless and the story was awful. Sonic Team you disapponit me once again.

the story was not bad at all. It explained much more about Shadow's past and the events of the predecessing games Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Heroes. Everything had cleared up until Sonic the Hedgehog on the 360 in which everything got messed up with the whole Mephiles thing. I admit that the game wasn't so good, and the Black Doom thing was kinda lame, but the story was not at all "awful".

"The guns are barely useless" this makes no sense. First of all, the guns were ESSENTIAL to complete the game, as you needed to shoot things from long distances at times. Obviously you haven't unlocked the Shadow Rifle yet; it's the most useful object in the entire game, it kills most to all enemies in a single shot and can take bosses down in seconds. Either you don't know what you're talking about and/or your english is very bad.

[Ratchetcomand]

^I remember when you said that Shadow the Hedgehog was the best game ever and now you said the game wasn't so good.

[Vengeance]

^I remember when you said that Shadow the Hedgehof was the best game ever and now you said the game wasn't so good.

I know, I was such an idiot back then... the game isn't bad, it just isn't that good. everyone said it was awful because of the guns, but it's not as bad as people say although it does have lots of problems (glitches and such).

[Ratchetcomand]

I must be the only person who liked Clive Barker's Jericho.

[Vengeance]

I must be the only person who liked Clive Barker's Jericho.

yes you are. the level designs were awful, the story, script and voice acting were disgusting and everything was just a generic mess. it has some of the worst lines known to man.

"I want you to know... when I get out of here... I'm going to eat your soul!"

[VGMaster]

I think Jak II was dissappointing but that's just because Jak and DAxter was AWESOME and Jak II wasn't. I also don't like Shadow the Hedgehog. Kirby Squeak Squad was a good game but WAY to short. I beat it in 2 days.

[Vengeance]

I think Jak II was dissappointing but that's just because Jak and DAxter was AWESOME and Jak II wasn't.

Jak II was better, IMO. But I love the first game with a passion. One of the best platformers of the decade; brilliantly original and fun as hell.

Honestly (also with Shadow) when they mixed guns into the game it became less fun. I don't like shooting games. And I liked how in Jak and Daxter there were 'levels' to go to, but in Jak !! you went to places in a big city. I also don't like games where I have to watch out for cops.

But I must say, the hovercars were sooooo much fun. I love hopping from one to another in mid-flight.

nonetheless, jak II integrated the gta style of gameplay perfectly in a platform game.

For me the most disappointing game I've played would be FF X-2. It was still good, but nowhere near its predecessor.

[E_G]

Super Paper Mario
Final Fantasy X-2
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Blood Omen 2
Yoshi's Story

Some of the games I was severely disappointed with.

[Vengeance]

I thought Killzone was dissapointing because of all the hype about it being a "Halo-killer". It was a decent game but the controls were really clunky, the graphics were pretty ugly and the multiplayer was next to useless. The story was cool though. I'm hoping the sequel can live up to the hype...

Also, Crash/Spyro Fusion. When I heard Crash and Spyro were having a crossover I was excited as hell. It's just a collection of the same repetitive mini-games with a random storyline thrown in.

[The Forsaken]

SCEA was clearly hoping Halo would die of laughter. :p

Anyway, Bullet Witch disappointed me. I thought it was going to be awesome. :(

[Vengeance]

Anyway, Bullet Witch disappointed me. I thought it was going to be awesome. :(

because the main character is a super-hot gun-wielding witch babe :D

Mayybeeee... >__> *runs away*

[cheezypoofz]

Super Paper Mario
Final Fantasy X-2
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Blood Omen 2
Yoshi's Story

Some of the games I was severely disappointed with.
im sure i know why you are disappointed with paper mario; interminable cutscenes?

anyway..
lemme think
doom 3 (xbox) it was different than computer in some ways. it was so hard at some times i had to use the cheats.

phantom hrglass- uses too much of the touch screen.

ill update more later..... ive just gone blank.

[Vengeance]

Super Mario 64 DS was quite a dissapointment aswell because the controls were awful.

[Ratchetcomand]

What about Super Mario Sunshine? It was good but Super Mario 64 was way better.

[cheezypoofz]

if super mario 64 was on the gcube and sunshine on the n64, '64 would be one of the greatest games ever.

Vengeance- they revamped the graphics a bit and they look slightly better. but i dont like what they did with the storyline. they jacked it up too much.

and what about forza motorsport 2? its too real. the first was better by a longshot.

[Vengeance]

here are some more, sorry for the bump, i got bored.

Mario Kart Wii
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
Rollercoaster Tycoon 3
Mass Effect
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
Blacksite: Area 51
Frontlines: Fuel of War

none of those were bad, some of them were awesome, but they failed to reach the bar that was set by their predecessors (if they had any). I know you'll all flame me for saying Mass Effect, but I honestly didn't like it. I was so overhyped and it definitely isn't GOTY-worthy. But whatever.

[Cerium]

I dont get how Pokemon Diamond/Pearl was disappointing?! I think it was one of the best of the series.

Anyway I thought Guitar Hero 3 was disappointing. It had a much weaker tracklist than the 2nd game.
Oh and Sonic '06 OBVIOUSLY!!

[Vengeance]

Pokemon Diamond/Pearl was dissapointing because:

-it was too short and easy
-the Sinnoh region is too small
-the plot is too predictable
-the GTS is broken, you can hardly ever find a good deal
-there were too many legendaries/one-time-only pokemon, and a lot of them sucked

it was still an awesome game but it could've been so much better.

[hsoldier]

shadow the hegdehog
sonic the heghehog
mario and sonic at the olympic games
transformers
spiderman 3

[espio.vx]

Heres my list
Sonic Heroes
Mario and Sonic at the olympics
Shadow The Hedgehog
Finding Nemo (boring)
Pok'emon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team

[vidboy10]

OMG Halo 3 has gotta be my bigest disappointment ever!
It looked so awesome but it failed for me..... V.V

The rest:

Super mario bros. 2 (Hard and you wernt even playing SMB 2 =/)

Motor Storm (looked SOOOOOO awesome but there wert to many tracks =()

This= Truth.

[Redhedd]

Crash of the Titans
Mariokart Wii
Tetris DS
EA playground
Wii Play
Some of these really annoyed me, especially Wii play.

[Nerdysimmer]

Metroid Prime: Hunters
Multiplayer is a blast, but the single player mode is too boring. The puzzles are simplistic, the enemies aren't varied and mostly appear out of a portal, and there are only two bosses that you fight four times each, all of them ending with a timed escape sequence. Easily the worst Metroid game in terms of single player but the best in multiplayer.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
The controls work really well in this game, and it's by far the most playable game in terms of gunplay and its puzzles are fun to solve. However, the game is the easiest in the Prime trilogy, which takes all of the fun out of it. Plus because it's the most story-driven game in the Metroid series, (besides Fusion) the game is more linear than the other two Primes but it isn't the most linear game in the series. Samus prefers to be alone in a Metroid game, just like StarFox should stick to the skies instead of walking.

Metroid Fusion
I'll admit the game is fantastic, but it disappoints me because it is possibly the most linear game in the Metroid series. There is very little exploration to be found in the game, and sequence breaking is impossible. The only time you are actually exploring the game is when you need to find the security locks, but the paths are so straightfoward, there is little difficulty to be found finding these locks. The game shines in terms of its gameplay, story, and fun bossfights.

StarFox Assault
The game wasn't that great at all. The game only shines when you are fighting in space in your Arwing, but the game is a mess on foot, the controls are frustrating and hard to get used to. The biggest problem in this game, is that there are more on foot missions than flying. What happened to the original StarFox gameplay? Remember the quote from StarFox 64:

"I'll take the sky any day." - Falco
I agree.

Beyond Good and Evil
The game had a Zelda feel to it, and it is very good. Puzzles are unique, and the stealth missions are fun as heck. The game has an open world and you are free to explore to a destination of your wish. All of that gets thrown down the drain once you finish the game; the final boss is as frustrating as ever, you literally have to turn your controller upside down some of the time, and if you beat the boss, you are rewarded with a very disappointing ending.

More to come

[dmshaposv]

Being the biggest BioWare fanboy ever, I've loved everything they've made except:

- Jade Empire

Other games include:

- Dark Cloud
- GTA: Vice City
- Fable
- Escape from Monkey Island

[Vengeance]

Halo 3, dissapointing? Halo 3 is by far the best in the series. The only think I didn't like about it is that The Arbiter was such an asstard. He would stare at the walls most of the time and he couldn't shoot for shit. Besides that it was an AMAZING game. Hell, even VEKTA, the self-proclaimed Hater of Halo(tm) agrees (well, kinda).

[Ervo]

Final Fantasy XII

It is a good game, but i got bored playing it. Mostly because the storyline sucks :I I hoped this was going to be as good as FFIX but it isnt even near.

[ELCrazy]

- Fable

:eek:


.......



:eek:

[Cerium]

I dont get how Fable was disappointing?! I thought it was amazing and I usually hate RPG's (I had Final Fantasy 7 and I thought it wasn't that great) but for some reason, I really got into Fable and I loved every second of it! Although I do think it was a lil bit short but I think the sequel is gonna be brilliant ^_^

[Vengeance]

Call of Duty 3 was pretty dissapointing aswell.

[Veronica]

Fabel was a great game, but it failed to include features that Peter Molyneux had mentioned while the game was still in development.

[TwistedTinkerToy]

Crysis for sure.

I read all these great reviews talking about how pretty it is and how fun it is. I think it's very average. My old computer could run it just fine up to medium graphics, but it crashed when I tryed to do high. My new computer is a Vista and it can barely run low. I don't see what the big deal is. Like I said above, it's average. One of the most disappointing games I've ever played.

[TrevOwnz]

The only game on the first page i even played was Devil May Cry 2 lol.

I don't have the money to buy every system and game haha.

[xIAMHUNTERx]

It's not just all about the OS, you know. :\

[Ninty]

Mass Effect - That game was terrible. So boring and rubbish. I hated it, but thats my Opinion.

Looney Tunes back in action - Well i shouldnt have expected this to be good....

Halo 3 - when you havent got LIVE then its crap. But when you have, then its awsome. But they didnt cater for the offline players, as i am the former.

[XCore]

GTA Liberty City Stories for PSP - Many gamers around the world where probably waiting for the best PSP title in the world. They where wrong. It's just Vice City's engine with GTA III's graphics and animations from San Andreas. The story was superb though have to admit.

FIFA 08 for PC - It was just basically FIFA 07 with different menus and 3 new modes... pathetic.

[Ratchetcomand]

Tenkachi 3 was disappointing for me was well.

[XCore]

Lemme add Metal Gear Acid to my list. I got along with the card based system, but the story was too damn confusing and the use of cards makes the game even harder. Metal Gear Acid 2 Kicked Ass though!

[Vengeance]

speaking of which, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

[Maximum]

-Tony Hawk's Proving Ground (Wii) They really messed the essences of making a good Tony Hawk game here.

-Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES) This is a kinda fun game, but it doesn't fit in it's place ( between SMB and SMB 3).

-Sonic Rush (DS) This is fun at first, but it makes you really agrevated in the later levels.

-Yoshi Topsy-Turvy (GBA) Ehhhh....just play it...

Well, there's my list!

(P.S. I know SMB2 was released about 20 years ago!)

[GuitarMan]

Well here;s my list

Super Paper Mario
Call of Dudy 3
Pokemon Battle Revolution (Had it a less than a week)
Pokemon Diamond
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Yu-Gi-Oh The Scared Cards
Spyro: A Hero's Tail
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (I loved it at first but then is just started to suck by the end)
Shadow The Hedgehog (Shadow was cool in SA2/SA2B but that game ruined him, it had a good story but Black Doom? Come on SEGA)
Super Mario 64 DS
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity (i played it breifly and hated it)
Transformers (Saw the movie loved it, after playing the game i wanted to gauge my eyes out with spoons)
Wii Play
Sonic 2006 (Never owned it but i have played it)

[Vengeance]

Transformers (Saw the movie loved it, after playing the game i wanted to gauge my eyes out with spoons)

you and me both, man.

[Ratchetcomand]

I played Transformers on the wii and it pissed me off so badly. The controls made me crazy.

[BennyBoy]

personally i hated all th espyro games after the 1st 3.

[GuitarMan]

I played Transformers on the wii and it pissed me off so badly. The controls made me crazy.

i played the decepticons first. I didn't even bother going past the first mission before being really pissed

[xIAMHUNTERx]

Mass Effect - That game was terrible. So boring and rubbish. I hated it, but thats my Opinion.

*removes you from favorite authors*

[dmshaposv]

Fabel was a great game, but it failed to include features that Peter Molyneux had mentioned while the game was still in development.

That.

Even Molyneux himself admitted that the game was a dissapointment, months after the launch.

The thing is..it wasn't much like a RPG at all. It was more of an action adventure game that was somewhat fun for as long as it lasted. It was quite short and had a forgettable story - two of the main things for me in a RPG.

[Vengeance]

just noticed Roku's new wip, which reminded me... STALKER wasn't worth the ten years it was in development for. Sure, it was good, but after all that time I was expecting GOTY material. It was simply a survival horror/shooter that could be played through once or twice, and then never be touched again.

[IceFox]

Fable: The Lost Chapters is one my favorite games of all time...top 5 probably...

[VGMaster]

Now that I think about it, Brawl was a little dissapointing. I had all of the chars and stages in a week. I remember how awesome Melee was when I first played it, and I feel Brawl is missing something. Sill an awesoem game tho. Just wasn't as much fun once the magic of having it wore off.

[vidboy10]

Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 was also disapointing =/

[PuzzleMan1337]

Subspace killed it. Made getting characters to easy. It didn't have Melees thrill of unlocking all the characters, which took along time. For me a few months. Brawl was just not as rewarding.

[Lenny819]

the real most disapoint game was NFL head coach. worst purcuse ever

[Ninjamojo27]

Heroes of Might and MAgic: Curse of the bonestaff or something like that.

I loved these games for the PC, but this one on the PS2 raped the whole series.

[TwistedTinkerToy]

Subspace killed it.

Burn in Hell!

[VGMaster]

Burn in Hell!

subspace was good, but yeah too easy to get chars. They should've done it in chapters. Like ex.

Chapter 14 is only accessible when Lucario and Snake are unlocked.

[TwistedTinkerToy]

I absolutely loved Subspace. I thought it was better than the actual fighting. It really made the game for me.

And I think online is a bust.

[PuzzleMan1337]

That would have made the game more rewarding.

[Ervo]

I'm not sure if I have said this, but.

Zelda: Ocarina of Time

The biggest dissapointment ever. I just don't understand what's so cool in this game. Maybe I should play this a bit more. And I hate that annoying flying thing.. Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages > Ocarina of Time.

[Ladykiller]

When did you play Oot, Ervo?

Because, back then it was ground breaking.

[Venom1]

I actually liked Ocarina of Time for gamecube.

But for me, most dissapointing is Yoshi: Touch n' go (i thinks thats how its spelled.

That game was good IMO


better than these ''Baby Makerz'' games and all that shit.

[Vengeance]

Burnout Revenge! that game required absolutely no skill to play. It was the noobs version of Burnout 3.

[Venom1]

That game was good IMO


better than these ''Baby Makerz'' games and all that shit.

But it had no plot and storyline whatsoever its like "hey boyz n' girlz, lets watch yoshi walk for 3 hourz!1!!!!1!!"
