The New prince of persia (It looked good but the hyped killed it as well as boring gameplay , It thought we stopped collecting glowing things back in 1980's ?)

Driv3r. The biggest let down in all gaming history. (Although when you play it with lil kids who for some reason love it the game and with cheats on like the go kart it's not so bad)

Oblivion - I'm not a big fan of open worlds for their own sake and the game's story, characters and writing were atrocious. Add to this an uninteresting game world, monotonous combat and broken gameplay mechanics (you're not supposed to specialize in stuff you actually want to use, wtf?) and you have an unmitigated disaster.

Crysis - I didn't get it. It was an OK-ish FPS. I didn't see what the big deal was. Granted, I'm not a big fan of FPS games to begin with.

Arkham Asylum - Not a bad game, I just don't like Batman so I didn't get that little something extra from it. Also, the combat was a bit dull. Fun to watch initially, but essentially a rythm game, and I don't really like those. Also, controls were sluggish.

GTA3&4 - Again, I just don't get these games. The setting isn't something I can relate to in any way. The game's freedom is lost on me since I don't really have anything to do with it. Overall, not my cup of tea.

Borderlands - Monotony. That's all I can say. Also, lack of any story. Even Diablo 2 had a decent plot with good cutscenes, Borderlands didn't even try.

I have never felt so much hate in my life

Oh, and Empire: Total War
Napoleon: Total War looks good though, so all may yet be forgiven

the Saboteur was a big disapiontment for me. there wasnt much hype from he media, but trying to get some certain people to shut the F**k up about it was like telling the tide to turn around and bugger off. *shudder* i hate that game now.

Nothing compares to the soul crushing disappointment that was Dawn Of War 2 in my opinion.

Morrowind. I got the game because all of my friends said it was awesome, but it turned out it was just an MMO type game that you had to play by yourself.

Dragon age Origins

Don't get me wrong, I liked the game, and I might even replay it sometime... But I have NEVER hyped up a game as much as I did with Dragon Age. Thus I was incredibly disappointed since I compared it to something it obviously wasn't all along.

Alone in the Dark for me (PS2). This was the most disappointing game I have ever played. I thought it was going to be at least ... somewhat ... good. But noooooooooooooo.

Assassin's Creed. The game had bad controls for me and a story that made me go 'What?'

Battlefield: Bad Company. Multiplayer was bad in my eyes and single player got really annoying.

Sly 2..? Really? I know 3 was a bit of a mis fire in some respects but 2 was excellent.

Gears of War 2. I picked it up just to see if they really did make a kick-ass story as they claimed. Instead, I completely left the single player mid-way through. (And the multiplayer didn't help, either.)
