Bionic Commando. The voice of Faith No More, the appeal of my childhood. A burly-looking protagonist in dreadlocks that wasn't a pirate. An amazing orchestrated soundtrack. But the gameplay... All those 'you can't swing here and you won't know until it's too late'... ugh.
Now Rearmed, that was awesome.
Edit: Also, Fallout 3 and NV. But that's all Bethesda's issue of being continuously crash-buggy. Big shock there, considering I was reloading saves in Daggerfall and Morrowind as much as I was playing the games.

For me it would probably Be Twisted Metal Head-On.
I hadn't played since TM4, which wasn't the best of games, but the multiplayer was fun, if a little buggy. Then I play Head On and it just feels... uninspired and boring. As you may see, I haven't bought many games in past years, though I'm still sad that they made cash shared in Dark Alliance 2, instead of just splitting the money 50/50 or leaving it like the original.

That's more or less the community letting you down, rather than the game, but I see what you mean. I kind of relate that to playing Team Fortress 2 and hating it because people were jerks to you. I'm sure if you played with a cool group of players it would be sweet, but I think you just had the wrong group. That being said, I play Blops once a month because I can't really take it upon myself to play it any more than that...ParanoidAndroid said:
Recently, Socom 4 let me down. I'm a huge Socom fan and it was just such a let down in so many ways, I won't even get into it. That's a sequel though, an original game that let me down was Haze a couple years ago. It looked promising but it was way too generic and cheesy, it wasn't as good as it led off to be in almost every area (graphics, audio, etc) and the online was atrocious. I could snipe and destroy ANYONE, and that was simply because I could sit on where the sniper rifle spawned and snipe down a corridor. I would get ammo instantly when the gun spawned and the sniper was always located in really easy to snipe spots. A decent idea I guess, but I remember going like 50-1 my fifth game or something, because I just sat, literally, on top of where the gun spawned and sniped down the cave to their spawn. It made me think that the online was so thin that I couldn't get anything else out of it.
Mortal Kombat, the recent one, for this new bull dlc of Freddy....I don't like it when games break away to just introduce a crossover character. Next they'll be wanting Jason or that pinheaded guy

Oblivion. I was hoping for a halfway decent RPG with an interesting story... But nope, story completely not compelling, everything is stiff and lackluster. I quit playing halfway through (the only game so far I've not completed) disappointed. I hope Skyrim proves to be a lot better.
[joke]Again, I'm not sure if this counts but I'm heavily disappointed by the game of life. The childhood stage is exceptional. Everything seems bright, cheerful and good. You seem to be surrounded by moral, upstanding adults you can count on to do what's right.
Then you get to the adult stage, and things don't seem quite so bright & cheery anymore. And you find that the "moral, upstanding adults" you thought were there... Don't exist. They're as flawed as you are. Not a good game, I highly recommend against it.[/joke]

[serious]Oh, and also this X-men game for NES I played as a child. It wasn't very good[/serious]
