    What are the games that disapointed you most in 2009?

    For me there were a few

    Empire total war
    Company of heros:tales of valor
    Operation flashpoint 2

    What are yours?

    Left for Dead 2, was almost the exact same as L4d1 in every aspect. really should have been part of a dlc.

    Operation flashpoint 2

    I hated every aspect of it.
    Long live ARMA

    Well fifa has it bugs too but its definitely better than pro evo atm.

    PES 2010 was massive improvement on last year's effort for me.

    Pro evo is great if you are playing two player with a mate, playing single player is kinda pants. Plus i could never get the online to work even once.

    You all might as well make your opinions count before the nomination thread(s) gets closed:)

    Probably Killzone 2 and Street Fighter IV. Was really looking forward to them and didnt play them long after they came out.

    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

    Took all the fun parts from the original and replaced them with nothing. Fewer people to talk to between missions. Worse characters, most of whom play very similar to each other. Fusion moves are unimaginative and similar for a lot of characters. Can't use some characters in some missions due to the storyline. Game is a lot easier.

    Really disappointed with that game

    +1 for Empire Total War. What a pile of steaming poo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,462 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    no, Steaming Poo:Total War is due later this year


  • Legal Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 5,400 Mod ✭✭✭✭Maximilian


    Empire total war - A steaming broken turd of game, that could have been great. I used to be CA's biggest fan. Now I detest them. I find the idea of being asked to pay full price for the glorified expansion (& patch) that is Napolean, not too mention all the ****ty overpriced DLC, offensive.

    Operation Failpoint 2 - Pure unrefined 100% fail. It promised Arma and delivered COD. That's fine if you want COD but that's not how they sold it. Thank god for Bohemia Interactive.

    +1 to that and the graphics were shocking nothing like the videos we saw.

    Operation lolpoint: Draglol rising. Just ****e.

    Batman Arkham Asylum. Not that it was bad, but with the amount of hype around it youd swear it was the second coming. It was a good platformer/brawler, nothing more

    Modern Warfare 2
    I wasnt even a major fan of MW1 but this took the piss. It was enjoyable to a point but the story was a shambles and it palyed exactly like MW1, which in turn played like COD2, which played like COD1...etc. At least MW1 had a decent story and didnt try and cram as many set pieces down your neck as possible every 2 seconds.

    I did try to warn people about Op Flash 2 but nobody listens to me and I've got a sneaky feeling AvP won' be great either.

    For me it was the single player of Modern Warfare 2. It was just half arsed compared to the first game.

    Resi 5 was also a major let down compared to Resi 4.

    Sadly I think you may well be right. You can only judge Rebellion on their track record and that's utter ****e as far as I'm concerned. And in any event, methinks they doth hype too much.

    OPF2 for the reasons already stated. Its not got any drm of any kind, but even pirates regard this as waste of pirating
