F.E.A.R. 2
I loved the first one, but the sequel left me feeling terribly unsatisfied. It was more of the same, but it just didn't seem to work as well as the first.

Dante's Inferno. All that hype. And when I got to play it the only reason I finished it was because I felt I had to find SOMETHING redeeming about this game. But no, I never found ANYTHING good about it. It was God of War with a terrible story and lackluster enemies and level design. I would've liked it as a budget title though if Beatrice WASN'T FUCKING THE DEVIL! The whole queen of hell thing really ticked me off, and Beatrice got with the devil willingly to get back with Dante. She was supposed to be incorruptible according to the book, but here she's way out of character. Lust, wrath, and heresy in one body, SCREWING the DEVIL and choosing to become the QUEEN OF HELL to GET BACK AT DANTE!!! I liked Dante's quest of redemption to face all the sins he committed in physical form. I hated how the enemies didn't stay in their circle. Lust should've had nothing but lust monsters, greed should've had nothing but greed monsters, etc. And this is a minor annoyance, a nitpick really, but humans don't become demons in Christian lore, evil angels do. And humans do not become angels. They become ghosts. Until they get resurrected.
I promptly sold this game as soon as I beat it. I won't be playing this game again unless I decide to review it.

Half Life 2. It mystifies me as to how this game has become so popular. I loved the first game but Half-Life 2, to me, was just a bog standard FPS with bad combat, an uniteresting location, repetitive enemies and a gimmicky weapon (guess which one I'm talking about).
Bioshock 2 was just puke on a platter. Total waste of my time.
I spent alot of time playing Modern Warfare 2 then once my gold membership expired I realised that I hadn't enjoyed any of it.
Assassins Creed 2. I spent so much time getting hyped up for it and it just wasn't any good. When the best part of a sandbox game were you play as an assassin is a silly sims city minigame then somethings gone wrong.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, some games are really expensive here in New Zealand.Iwata said:
I got the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. bundle off Steam, NZD$15 for CoP and SoC... I'm pretty sure CoP is $70 dollars in a store here. I was looking around at popular new games... EB games America has Call of Duty Black Ops for USD$60, (about NZD$82) EB games NZ sells the same game for NZD$130, DSE sells it for $110. The Starcraft 2 prices were just as bad.
Time to get a credit card and never step foot in a retail store again (save to maybe buy really, really old games from the used/bargain bins).
Just recently... bought ModNation Racers for PS3... played it for maybe about 4 hours. Made a MOD, made a Kart, made a Track and raced the single player...
I think the best part was making the Kart and Mod... track editor was boring and your track is just gonna look like everyone else's. Didn't go online cause the racing wasn't fun single player why would it be online?
Returned (bought it used, sue me) it and got Heavy Rain. AMAZING GAME... but I beat it in one 6 hour sitting... Debating on returning it for something else (see, I'm working the system).
So ModNation was a disappointment and Heavy Rain was disappointingly short but worth it IMO.

Mortal Kombat vs DC and Blacksite Area 51. I finished both, hated the entire experience and never played them again
