Bionic Commando for pretty much all the reasons Yahtzee stated in his review as well as the lack of free roaming. It made me mad since the NES one was so damn good.
also
Mirror's Edge seemed very stylish, but there was no substance. The controls were shit. The plot was weak. I never got that "feeling of momentum" that everyone else seems to get from it. And the fact that it was FPS; I hate the fact that they made a game based so heavily on parkour and yet we can't see the moves. That's like if District B13 was filmed with a helmet camera.
and
Guitar Whore-o and it's entire cabal. They could have come up with a better peripheral and they could have made a game that actually taught some basic guitar lessons, but instead we got Frequency remade with a $60+ controller that feels like it was made by Fisher-Price.

Call of Duty 5? Didnt know it was out yet. As for CoD: World at War, yes, dogs were extremely cheap and the guns had a balancing issue.L3m0n_L1m3 said:
OT: Majoras Mask.
Resident Evil 4. Amazing production values: I really would have loved to play more than I did, but the controls sucked! I think we're well past the point where dual-stick shooting control is optional. And even then, at least let me move while I fire my gun. Way to completely ruin what was otherwise an amazing game.
God yes! I was so psyched for Damnation once I heard about it, but I rented it for a week, brought it home, played it for an hour and never touched it again. Everything about it was awful. Before the opening cinematic was even finished I was feeling disappointed.Joa_Belgium said:
Lost Planet. Nothing it did it did correctly. Your character was really slow, the levels were too long, the bosses were uninspired, and the gameplay was boring.
You're talking about the movie tie-in game right? Cause this Jumper (http://www.pcgaming.ws/viewgame.php?game=jumper_redux) is awesome.Xyphon said:

Since this is an opinion thread I'm not going to say anyone is wrong, but I'm interested in what reasons Assassin Xaero has for saying Starcraft fails and why PxDn Ninja thinks any of the games they listed fail.PxDn Ninja said:
As for what games fail for me, definitely Wizard of Oz and Batman Forever for SNES. Since then I found out about reviews and have tried avoiding bad games.
Street Fighter IV - I felt it was neither an evolution or revolution in the series. It just bored me terribly.
FarCry 2 - One of the more annoying games I've played. Enemies take an entire clip to kill, you are constantly getting attacked and losing health, but I never died in that game. I thought my Xbox was going to explode from the catch-22. You can't do anything in that game without getting chased by technical and getting shot from a sniper that is a mile away.

GTA 4. Excellent graphics, physics, and a pretty fun multiplayer, but I hated the story, the dumbass dinner dates, the fact that Little Jacob and Dwayne (my favorite characters) stopped giving missions WAY to early into the game, and all of the [unnecessary] realism thrown into the game.
Manhunt 2. Everyone was on their high-horse, either trying to have it banished to Satan's bowels, or defending it like it was the last Krogan breeder (ha-ha, snarky Mass Effect joke...God I'm lonely), and in the end it turned out to be utter shit. Boring, too violent to be fun, and more forgettable than Stéphane Dion.
Spore was a big disappointment for me. Its seems ok at first glance, but during every evolution, you find no depth at all. just pointless repetition.
Far Cry 2 - How many times do i have to kill the same people. Its seemed like just turning to look for more enemies made them respawn.
Crysis- My biggest fail. Great graphics. decent AI. kinda ok for a shooter. Not a good story. They a huge deal out of the suit, which was IMHO worthless. Seriously, i p[layed through it on the hardest difficulty to check and the only times i needed to suit were when they forced me to use it. and all this put together in a package that the best computers of the time struggled with. Huge fail....epic even.
