Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands because it has no right to exist.
Star Wars Force Unleshed II because it's bad and it has no right to exist.

Between There and There.
Country
The Wide, Brown One.
I don't think any game disappointed me this year.

That's the result of low expectations and cynicism where the games industry is concerned, so it's very hard for me to be disappointed, and I usually end up with my opinions validated or on the odd occasion pleasantly surprised.

Minecraft was a bit...uhm...Hurrah for fun!


OT: New Vegas was a tad disappointing. Even though I love Fallout 3. I just couldn't get into New Vegas. I just wait till there is some Warhammer Conversion mod or something ^^
And the Singleplayer of Black ops was a bit...MEH in my oppinion.

Fable 3. I missed the first two and took a gamble on #3. What I got was HILLARIOUSLY mediocre. All the big concepts that were being hyped were underwhelming at best. I'd consider it on the wrong side of average overall, just the game in general. I'd call it a poor game in general.

Call of Duty: Black Ops, yep, surprised someone said it?
Pretty obvious; all the reasons everyone has stockpiled.

Halo Reach... Only game I was really wanting to play besides Black Ops, which I haven't got a chance to sit down and enjoy yet.

Reach just was a bit boring. Graphics haven't improved a bit since ODST, little wannabe epic parts seem to just be pointless, characters just aren't that good (but then again the Halo series hasn't really had any good characters except Johnson and Cortana in Halo 1).

The jump from the tower into the ship was just dumb... wasn't being blown up imminently, they weren't in any hurry. It's like noble 6 thought that it might be fun to risk falling to his death by making a jump that would destabilise the dropship (spartan armour wieghs a ton).

And the spartans had gay looking armour... why didn't they have mark 5 armour at the time? Small criticism but still, one of the things I liked most about the Cheif is his cool looking suit.

The only part that I felt the slightest bit emotionally immersed was the part when that shuttle full of civilians got shot down.

Tron: evolution. i am soooo pysched for tron this friday, and i was so bummed when i heard tron evolution got a 4.5/10 from gameinformer. i mean, come, wtf disney? it's a game based off a movie based off an older movie which was based off a series of little games. then there was the wii version which was a bunch of little games, and that got a 5/10. come on, wtf.
Escapist put up a review of Tron which was quite favorable. Maybe you should make up your own mind, mate.

Mafia II

Its too damned short on side missions and the DLC makes me want to gut the level designer.


I mean seriously, how hard would it have been to stick in a couple of side missions on each level? Go here and do this thing for X and get a car/money/porn magazine.

Oh and on another note: Porn Magazine gathering in a game, even when its "Classic" porn appropriate to the time, shows that you have no respect for your customers or characters. Lets look at it this way: if you assume the porn is part of the role playing side - then your character is the kind of sad bastard who goes around collecting random bits of pornography he pinches off the floor. Then if you assume its for the entertainment of the player, your saying that everybody who plays this game will either be the kind of sad fuck who requires wanking material in a game to keep their attention.

Someone's already started cranking out IG armour and weapons for FONV.
Yeah but I rather have the full package.
Even then it might be hard to be drawn in. Though still enjoyable

Yeah...don't trust game informer.

XD

It got good reviews from Gametrailers
did it now? FUUUUUUUU

well, my GI subscription is free from having a gamestop membership, so w/e

(w8, did i just say GI subscription? i know i mean gameinformer, but doesn't that really mean government issue? as in G.I. Joe? AWESOME, i wanna be shipwreck! he's my fav character!)
WAIT A SECOND!
I think it was the escapist that said it was good
say whaaaa?

funny coincidence, i was talking to a freind about it at school who said they played the demo at gamestop, they HATED the interface and the camera, just like gameinformer said

but if the escapist, a community 10,000 strong of intelectuals and a handfull of animetards, says it's good, i should reconsider

Call of Duty: Black Ops

I didn't have high expectations for the game in the first place but the fact that they released it completely broken and still haven't even bothered to fix it disappoints me greatly.

Red Dead Redemption.

It was like GTA4 without any buildings, cars or pedestrians, and with a human doormat as a main character.
OMG THANK YOU!
Finally, a person who hates RDR for the same reasons as me, not just "'cuz it's not COD herpa derp derp"
I loved GTAIV so much more.

Final Fantasy 13.
And I was disappointed because I loved almost all the other FF's. But 13 was just...fucking awful.
