Disappointing Sequels

[pyrosaw]

Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas

All 3 were buggy, boring, un-fun, and overall, bad games.

Also: Half Life 2 (All Episodes)

Half Life 1 was mediocre at best, but the sequels were just plain shitty. I was severely disappointed.

I can understand why someone doesn't like new Bethesda games. They are EXTREMELY buggy. But what is wrong with Half Life 2? Matbe it wasn't the jewel encrusted masterpiece everyone expects of it, but it certainly wasn't shitty.

Supreme Commander 2. Took pretty much everything that made SupCom awesome and dumbed it down.

He's just trolling. NO-ONE can be seriously that tasteless.

I'm not trolling at all.
Half Life 2's story, the best part of the game, was average at best. It wasn't engaging enough to keep me excited for most of the game. The characters didn't appeal to me, and I found them annoying after a while.
The game boils down to a bland FPS with some puzzles and 1 gun added in to help keep things interesting. The physics are good, I'll give it that, but overall, the game was sub-par at best.

Hey man, It's your opinion.

Hey man, It's your opinion.

It was more directed at the person who was calling me a troll, but yes.
Thank you for understanding.

I would mention Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen 2, but I can't. Because it doesn't exist.

Such a shame the series ended with Defiance.

Here's hoping for a revive!

After playing through the Trilogy I think that Sly 3 was a bit disappointing!

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

If you count expansion packs as sequels, Half-Life: Blue Shift. Half-Life: Opposing Force blew my socks off, and had my expectations too high as I got Blue Shift.

Felt like more of Half-Life 1, which I found repetitive.

Unlikely. Amy Hennig - the writer - left. They don't get funding because Tomb Raider sells better. And, you know, there's the matter of Tony Jay being dead.

Mass Effect 2
Civilization 5
Starcraft 2

 

[Sacman]

Deus Ex Human Revolution... even the lead developers admit that it was a poor sequel and too dumbed down...<.<

You mean Invisible War, right? Human Revolution isn't even out yet.

Yeah sorry... I've just got Human Revolution on the mind right now since so many trailers have already been released...<.<

I acctually thought that Bioshock 2 was funner to play. I was kinda dissapointed with New Vegas (still liked), but I acctually think that it was more because it felt the same, it didint have the innital new car smell and WOW-factor thatt Fallout 3 had.

 

[Mr Shrike]

The second and third Matrix films.

How I wish they were non-existent.

 

[SonOfStayPuft]

Star Wars The Force Unleashed II.

Lightsabers? Check. Darth Vader? Check

Repetitive gameplay, same enemies and quicktime events, the ability to finish it just by button mashing? check

Yoda? Check (but only for 30 seconds)

 

[TheGreatFedora]

Devil May Cry 2. Maybe one of the most outright boring games of all time, and this after the intensity of the first one.

Also, on the same note, Devil May Cry 4, which was fine enough but disappointing overall.

And agree with Wahful about Sly 3.

gotta say resident evil 5, its not that it wasnt fun, but it wasnt creepy, it wasnt tense

the co-op i think is what killed it most, i cant be freaked out or anything if im with a bot and certainly not with a friend.

also the atmosphere totally changed from creepy to super sunny. and most gameplay stuffs occured in more open areas as opposed to tighter claustropic areas.

Dead space 2 didnt dissapoint, i was really worried it would but thankfully viceral did well with the campaign, multiplayer is digustingly tacked on though

 

[Ludicrest]

I would say mafia 2, not that i didn't enjoy the game, it was just sun par when compared to mafia, perhaps it was the port to console. i'm not to sure. i did enjoy the cross over though.

Yeah man i really was thankful for Dead space 2, the multiplayer on the other hand again agree with you it felt like a poor mans left 4 dead, and i didn't much enjoy that either.

yeah i really hope they can keep it up, viceral is a promising devolopment team and i hope that dead space 3 or whatever other LP's they got coming will be just as good

Left 4 Dead 2. I got the xbox version, and you know what that means with Microsoft's online servers:

L-(disconnected)
La-(disconnected)
LAG.

Left 4 Dead 1 was much better. At least The framerate was low enough that I could actually tell if a tank was coming, and whether or not I was losing health.

Well i read somewhere that they have DLC to add to the story of DS2 which is out soon?
Hopefully its kept to a good standard. but considering this is an EA game i'm glad Visceral are really focusing on making the most atmospheric and downright terrifying game they can

Fallout 3

decent game on its own, but it just didn't capture the spirit of FO 1&2.
It was just like any other RPG, just with a fallout theme.
