Games you've wanted for years before finaly getting them and finding out they're actually just shit.

Soul Calibur 3. Granted, "shit" is probably too strong a word, but I was seriously disappointed. It's much better in the arcade, but even there, I hate the AI and the Legend system...
Rainbow 6 Vegas 2.
I played the first one some time after launch and liked it, and always wanted to have a crack at the second game but didn't get around to it til recently. I picked it up when it was cheap on Steam last month. That game is buggy as hell. The number of times it issued random commands to my squad without me pressing anything, the number of times they wouldn't do what they were told, the number of places where the level design was several steps past challenging and into frustrating or poorly designed...and the finale just outright sucked. I didn't see any of the bugs in it in the first game and frankly I don't think it was worth even the sale price of £7.49!

Don't be fooled into EA's plot, they never make anything good. It will just be the same game so save your money.
If you were expecting a highly manageable squad shooter, or a very slow RPG, I'd agree. On any other grounds, I will have to hunt you both down and kill you. Sorry. Fan.Skillswords said:
Half-Life 2. Has not aged well. Had I played it when it came out, I probably would have loved it. But I didn't; I waited several years, and found it to be a huge ball of meh when I finally got a PC good enough to run it.
"Wow, a physics engine; let's see how many tedious, convoluted puzzles we can make with it..."

Two Worlds. Rented it because the ads looked good, and the horrible gameplay/acting made me despise the time I wasted playing it.
I was waiting for the Fallout 3 before even Fallout Tactics came out. I was satisfied with the Fallout 3 for some time, than it bored me so much, that I actually started playing Fallout 2 for the... I don't know, 8th time?
Fade To Black
Flashback was the best platformer game I've everplayed in my entire life.
When I realized there was a sequel released I bought Fade to Black years after it was released.
By God was that game entirely and utterly shit. I had 10000x more fun with its 2D predecessor than any of that sloppy Tomb Raider-clone. By God that was disapointing. No Wonder Delphi Software went bancrupt after that...
