I think title explains itself. Mine would be Fable, Morrowind, Oblivion (I'll explain them in a second), and maybe Battle for Middle Earth.

Now, I'm sure that there's going to be some people who are Bethesda Fanboys or simply want to know the reason for my choice, in Morrowind and Oblivion I felt that it didn't make much use of it's world and setting. I mean, you check one part of the world, and you basically have seen say the equivalent of 50 hours of the game world. The NPC's didn't show much, say, real interaction between each other as well they could have been, also I do not like much the RPG system.

Anyway, what are your most disappointing games?

Dark Sector. Horrible game to pay full price for. I thought it'd be good but it was disappointing in just about every single way. The only thing that made up for its' shitty everything was the Glaive, which never got boring.

I bought it day one for 60 bucks. The second I bought it it had already dropped in 'worth' to 20 bucks QQ

Probably Far Cry 2.

I really just couldnt get around the odd animations, weird gunplay and the seemingly excrutatingly low FPS rate.

And Bioshock 2, just the same as the first with the guns in disguise basically.

Fable II. I loved the original Fable, it had a certain charm to it that Fable II didn't have. Fable II is also incredibly easy.

Modern Warfare 2. I was promised the second coming, and all I got was a generic FPS that I quickly wished I hadn't even given a chance.

Fallout 3.

Having heard literally no negative words about this game, I bought it and expected a good game to get into.

It was fun when Liam Neeson was there, because he's Liam Neeson.

Then it was boring. And grey. And the most underwhelming game I'd ever played.

I'll go with Far cry 2 as well. really enjoyed the first one and was looking forward to the second one. But it turned out to be a total bunch of arse...

Red Alert 3

EA systematically destroyed the C&C series after Westwood was removed from the equation. I was hugely excited because I'm a big Red Alert fan. I finished the campaigns in a couple of days and got bored with the Skirmish mode in a couple of hours.

The story was horrible and didn't actually fit in the RA universe. The whole "Tactics" part of the game had been sucked out of it by making sure that everything was so perfectly balanced that there wasn't a great deal of differences in the three factions. The fact that half the units + bases could be built on water was a horrible idea, once again eliminating half the "tactical" part of the game considering you could now go ANYWHERE on the map (all of which were tiny).

The only redeeming features were Tim Curry and David Hasselhoff.

But that's just one disgruntled former fans opinion...

Easily Fallout 3. The previews I read neglected to tell me that they ditched Oblivion's "level a skill through practice" idea. And replaced it with boring old EXP and skill points.

I had a good time, though. But I will NEVER play it a second time.

Then again, my hopes were so high, no one could meet them.

Hmmmm.....

Fable 2: Everyone's already covered this.

Bioshock: I was told it would be akin to 'Deus Ex'...... It was not.

Dragon Age: It had a good build-up, then it comepletely shoe-horned in three plot devices in the end to make the game more "dramatic". Coupled with not playing your PC from #1 in DA #2, I cannot find a reason to replay it. I intended to, so my character would be set-up for #2, which I still had hopes for, but I can't now. It's the first game from BioWare I didn't play half a dozen times through.
