What is a game you were surprised you hated?

[MrPop]

Fable II was a big disappointment to me. I liked the first one but it just didn't feel as immersive as that. Maybe it's because games had developed between I and II and the speach still felt very slow, cumbersome and rigid. Also the arena section in II was a big let down. The arena in the first one was awesome. That was my favourite bit in the whole game but in II...

Morrowind. I loved it back then, but since playing Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Mass Effect it just comes off as dull and lifeless.

Yeah. But it still remains one of my best loved games for nostalgia value. I can't ever insult it now >._>

 

[Mr Fatherland]

Definetely Fallout 3. The whole game disapointed me, especially V.A.T.s, to me it seemed broken, when you shot someones head off and the body would go all rigid and then revert back to a weird straight-backed posture. In fact, the whole game seemed broken.

It was spectacular, but it all looked so dull and brown after going back, you know? Especially after the Shivering Isles.

 

[KarumaK]

GTA4, Oblivion, and KOTOR. They all caused me epic meh.

Yeah. I redid a bit of Morrowind two weeks ago and I was surprised by how brown it was. I still enjoyed it but I get agree with you there. Nostalgia can be blinding sometimes. I haven't got Shivering Isles yet though but by the sounds of things it is good though =P I did get Tribunal and Blood Moon though (Morrowind expansions) and they were amazing. I loved the clockwork city in tribunal and the cold wastes of Blood Moon was brilliant. Anyway that's enough rambling on my part >.>

 

[Desaari]

Warcraft 3.

I felt it was a huge let down after the fun that was starcraft and Warcraft 2. Bloody Heros. Ruined the RTS part of it.

ummmm warcraft 2 better than 3? 3 is one of the best RTSes ever

Hahah that made me laugh, needless to say I agree wholly with tkioz.

 

[Shepard's Shadow]

Gears of War, Far Cry 2, GTA4 and all RTS games.

 

[philzibit]

Mass Effect and Gears Of War. When I finally played them the didn't live up to all the hype they had for them.

 

[Rann]

Mass Effect 2, When they decided to kill off Shepard, just like Revan.

I lol'd

I disliked Spore, which is a shame because the concept was awesome...but the game was shockingly bad (espically after the civilastion stage)

 

[powerinblack]

ICO. It had it's good points, but so much of the game felt so... mediocre, especially the combat.

 

[Brisingr]

Dead Space, I got it for the Pc and it was just not fun to play in the slightest. Awful controls and just an overall disapointment.

 

[Drasur]

UFCs online, the amount of people that have turbo controllers is ridiculous and as soon as they get you into a submission, split second later, bam and your out. apart from that excellent career mode.

 

[Zephirius]

You've probably never heard of it, but Parkan 2. It was supposed to be awesome and then it sucked. I don't care to elaborate.

Oh, and Fallout 1/2. The writing was very well done and all, but the gameplay was plain awful.

 

[Frenger]

Hello everyone.

Call of Duty 4.

They made a game that could have been great into Virtua Cop 2008.

 

[Sewer Rat]

Legend of Zelda Wind Waker.

 

[Lopunny]

Final Fantasy X-2...I just couldn't get into it the same as it predecessors...such a shame, and I loved blue mages, but I could never figure out how to make the gun mage actually copy moves *shrugs*

 

[Time Travelling Toaster]

Half life 2, I just didn't get into it or like it for some reason =/
