Biggest Dissapointments of 2010

Medal of Honor. This came out in the same year as Halo Reach, Bad Company 2, and Call of Duty Black Ops. 5 hour story, 8 multiplayer maps and 3 player classes. What a joke! Not to mention the glitches.

I disagree, I thought Alan Wake was a great game. The most underrated game of 2010 in my opinion. Anyway as far as disappointments go I will have to say Medal of Honor and Fable 3. MoH had a short and very easy single player and the multiplayer wasn't up to much either. Been there done that. Fable 3 was okay but I was expecting more. The story was weak, engaging quests were few and far between and the multiplayer/co-op was poor.

Heavy Rain: One of the most poorly written stories of all time (for a big budget game that took years over the usual two that games take for development and when you consider the story is all the game has), and pretty offensive to women, cops, the FBI, kids, parents, and even serial killers. My only hope is that the game is used as a guideline by good writers on exactly what not to do in a story. The entire draw of the game of your choices effecting the plot is also a lie so that certainly didn't help.

Mafia 2: Too much driving to Joe's, and driving back from Joe's. I liked it but it could have been better.

gt5 is one, cant really think of much else

Civilization V. I know it got rave reviews, but most of the Civ community agrees that it's actually not very good. All of its features look good on paper, but after playing through a few times, you realize that they weren't very well thought out after all.

GT5 by a long shot, not a bad game but definitely not 'top-of-genre'.

Loved alan wake and loved alpha protocol..It was buggy alpha but a fun game all around..The stupid mini game couldve been taking out thats the only ting that was annoying in it really..

Civ five is really dissapointing..Maybe i played it for a few days thats it..Shame i reverted back to playing civ 4..

Aliens vs. Predator - I don't think it was that bad but after the amazing AvP2 it was a massive disappointment. It gets too much hate but it really didn't deliver what the old ones did so long ago so I understand that hate.

Alan Wake - After hearing everyone praising the game and knowing Remedy's pedigree I just thought it would be more. Not at all a bad game, but surely a disappointing one.

Halo Reach - I loved the multiplayer but the campaign was completely forgettable and half assed. It disappointed me that they changed so much to the core story. It also just didn't have the staying power of Halo 3, which I played with my friends for years. Couldn't tell you why, but we're already bored with it and moved on to different things.

God of War 3 - I really enjoyed the game, beat it a few times actually, but I let my own hype get the best of me on this one. It was great, it just wasn't God of War 2 great. It felt all over the place story wise (the Athena addition was stupid) and was graphically bi-polar. Kratos might be the best character model ever, while Zeus had a clay beard.

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 - If it was the first Sonic game I ever played maybe I would have liked it, but it was just lacking everything that should have been there. It was basically Sonic and Eggman with no sort of reasoning and it was missing that fun factor. If it was a direct sequel to Sonic and Knuckles then why not add those characters? Like Tails or Knuckles or how about a bad ass race with Metal Sonic? Stages were mostly repeats of older Sonic games and for $15 it simply wasn't worth it. Probably my biggest disappointment of the year.

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. Pretty much terrible. If I wanted to play a Burnout game, I'd buy one.

Star Wars The Force Unleashed 2. I was expecting a major improvement, not a huge step backward...JustPlainLucas

I agree. I was so looking forward and it just wasn't up to par. :?

I liked God of War 3 and Alien Vs. Predator. The only game I can think of that was disappointing was Fable 3, and I never even played it lol. Just from what I've heard from those who have played it, and especially all the points Angry Joe gave in his video review. I liked the first, short but fun. This one looks... awful.

Fable 3
Halo Reach

just so dissappointed with them

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II.
