I was not a fan of GTA4. The new physics engine just sort of killed my fun for me.

I felt the same way, up until I was going roughly 40 mph and rammed into a tree. Watching Niko soar out of the windshield, screaming like a drunk singing karaoke, quickly turned my anger into confusion.megapenguinx said:
This as well. It fell just short of the mark for me, especially after VI had left such a huge impression on the series, and gaming as a whole.Radeonx said:

I didn't like what they did to Silent hill 4 but they were just trying to mix things up and I still enjoy the game. On another note do something about your spelling and welcome to the escapist.
Crash Bandicoot: Wrath Of Cortex, became too ahrd to control and wasn't as imaginative as the first 4 games.
Gears Of War 2 , its still the same muscle-flexing, testosterone-riddled emontionally-stunted piece of shit as the first one, only with crappy multiplayer.
you haven't done the park swings glitch, have you? probably the best thing about the game.megapenguinx said:

I'm gonna have to agree with GTA4 being rather disappointing. Another one would have to be Condemned 2. I absolutely loved the first one, but the second was pretty bad. Also another game, which shall not be named to avoid any problems (rhymes with waylo), has sequels which I was rather disappointed with.
I feel Kingdom Hearts II wasn't as good as the first, but it is still a great game. GTA4 wasn't as fun as the others. That is all for the moment.
Fable 2. Once again Peter Molysomething got my hopes up and crashed it cruelly against the rocks.
Tales of Valor. While some people consider it an expansion, it was also a standalone game and the only Company of Heroes material in over 2 years. Relic could have really revived the game by fixing balance and returning the game to its roots, perhaps even adding the Russians in, which many people were waiting for.
Instead, we get 2 worthless singleplayer campaigns and units to replace other units within each factions rosters, causing even more balance headaches.

Actually his spelling is really good if you don't count the abbreviations and no caps.Radeonx said:
Unreal 2, a bit too 'Generic Space Marine FPS-ish', all though in it's defense your character isn't in the marines, as you are told right at the beginning. It just doesn't feel as much of a cult hit that the first Unreal was. I'd still probably play it though.
I thought the second Condemned was way baetter. I loved the deeper combat. But on topic, Resident Evil 5 was disappointing. Just like 4, but worse in every possible way, except graphics.sfrench11189 said:
KotOR 2 (Still a good game, but obviously unfinished)
Deus Ex: Invisible War (Weak and forgettable)
Oblivion (Dumbed down for the consoles)
Neverwinter Nights 2 (Horrific performance and retardedly high requirements)
Halo 3 (A step backwards instead of forwards from Halo 2)
Every Activition-published Guitar Hero (No explanation needed)
Civilization 3 (Spearmen > Tanks and other balance LOLs)
