Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 for Xbox 360
I thought if they used the circle interface they used in Kane's Wrath for 360 and combined it with the awesomeness of Red Alert 2 and put in on a console I would be sold on RTS for a console because my computer is a POS and can't play games, but Red Alert 3 was just awful, first on console then I got to play it on a friend's PC.

Fantasy Star : Universe or whatever it's called for the 360. I have never experienced a crappier piece of rubbish.
Prince of Persia - Sands of Time. Got it for the PC over Christmas and the keyboard controls seem to make the game prohibitively difficult (as does having no experience with games which have a moving camera). I don't doubt that the console version is good but the PC one seems like a waste of money.
Also, Trine. Bought it for full price and since then it's been in sales twice. I like the game but I wish I'd waited a bit longer to get it since I don't think it was quite worth the £15 or so I paid for it.

Spider-Man 3 (twice, I thought it would be better the second time... big mistake)
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games
Red Steel
Call of Duty 3
Lit (WiiWare)
I just bought Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, Wii Sports Resort, and the Pikmin port for Wii... surprisingly, I haven't played Pikmin before, so I thought now was the time; I've heard good things about it. I haven't had time to play them yet because of college, but let's hope they don't find their way onto this list...

Civilization 4 [Either glitchy game or just bad programming]
Age of Empires 3 [Annoying gameplay]
Halo (PC) [Major decrease in graphics for PC, crashing and no patch]
Halo 2 (PC) [Ditto]
World in Conflict [Multiplayer is bad, reinforcement mechanic was too annoying]
Soms 3 [CONSTANT crashing with no fix or explanation]
ALL MAXIS GAMES [Ditto]
Dragon Age Origins [Could hold my interest, I don't know why. I liked it but ... I dunno.]

All these games people are naming off make me wonder, are people just naming off good games just to be different thinking that they aren't following the pack. Anyways...
2 worlds... yeah i think the majority of escapist members can agree on that one. Played it once havent touched it since. Sold it a month ago.

Maelstrom on the pc, wow that game blew hard. Played it for about 10 minutes then it went straight back to the store. And stalker clear sky, massive disappointment after the first game.
