Most disappointing game on ps3?

White Knight Chronicles II.

Loved the first one as I put in 600 hrs into it, anticipated for the sequal but was a huge let down.

That's hardcore haha. I didn't enjoy the first one but I was thinking of buying the second since the first had much unrealized potential, too bad to hear this.

Killzone 3. Never try to fix something that isn't broken Guerilla. Shame on you.

Dead Rising 2

Why does nobody like Resident Evil 5? D:

Final Fantasy XIII. Seriously, most disappointing game of any generation. Just sit back, press X, and let the computer play the game for you.

Oh yeah this too, couldn't finish it, barely playable in my opinion, everything's changed so much since FFX, can you believe that was over 10 years ago?

Final Fantasy 13 hands down, this coming from someone who adored 7-10. One of the worst games I have ever played, Couldn't even finish itXxRefereexX

FFXIII for me. I couldn't put more than 2 hours into that game before giving it back to my friend.Console_Gamer93

Final Fantasy 13... *sigh*

In my opinion the characters are unlikeable, the dialogue terrible and the story uninteresting.

There's no exploring to do either, it's just one corridor after the other.

Previous FF titles I've played like VII, IX and X had a great atmosphere and kept me playing for hours because I wanted to explore their worlds and see where the story went.

With Final Fantasy XIII I had to push myself to play on, it wasn't fun or interesting. Never finished the game.

Crysis 2 was a let down. Lack of vehicles , large-scaled map and how they twiddled with the features of the Nanosuit made it seriously uncomfortable for players of Crysis 1. The only improvement were the graphics IMO.

Final Fantasy XIII isn't quite so bad - early on just pressing the Auto Battle feature would pretty much do the trick but later on the bosses can really sweep you out of the ring if you don't plan out your tactics. Though the storyline was definitely horrid compared to the older series of FF.
Though all in all , the linearity , pathetically made characters and disappointing plotline kills it.

Last Rebellion was pretty bad as well. Bad physics and mechanics for it's system really kills off the game's value.

Duke Nukem Forever was overated - really now , if anyone enjoys it at all it must be the hype incurred by the trailers. The more I play it - the more ridiculously boring it becomes. If it was released like several years earlier it may be better than average but now? It'll be swept away in a moment.

Hyperdimension Neptunia was O.K but the jokes are really bad - or rather , their lame.
The only selling point of the game were the girls and everything else was a train wreck. The gameplay is somewhat unique but unrefined and developed.

I don't wanna be killed but I'd throw in LittleBigPlanet. Maybe I'm not into these kind of games but I can hardly get through two weeks of it.
I can't really see the point of bouncing about in a land full of sugar and rainbows whilst running to the end of the map.

Atelier Rorona was fairly unexpected. It features more responsibilities and missions rather than RPG combat.
I find myself rushing to hand in quest items on time rather than grinding on monsters to be honest - and the combat system in itself was pretty....bland.

Mmm... Can't think of anything else for now.

Gran Turismo 5, all that time and what do we get yeah the driving is good but the a-spec mode is badly put together, cars are too expensive for the amount of money you earn from a race, leveling up takes ages, the AI of the other cars are like zombies and never deviate from the racing line plus THEY hit you and YOU get the time penalty and only the premium cars have a cockpit view (my preferred racing view) so if i have to use a standard car i have to play in a view i can't race in

all in all GT5 was the most disappointing game i have EVER played on any console so much so i will never get another GT game again (and i used to love the series) :cry:

For me it was MotoGP 08. And now I read that is being considered the best of the PS3 MotoGP games. That says something about how the others came out. I wouldn't know. I wasn't stupid enough to go back.

Gran Turismo 5 all this time to wait for the game and it was boring.

It's a racing sim. They all tend to be like that.

Hmmm.... Mercenaries 2... could not get it to work no matter what. Always froze on the title screen. I was pretty disappointed :(

Why is everyone mentioning good games? Far Cry 2 is not the MOST dissapointing game on PS3. Neither is RE5, Gran Turismo 5, GTA IV, LA Noire, Killzone 3, Resistance 2 or Assassins Creed 2. It ridiculous to say so. Games like HAZE. Now that was very dissapointing. NukleaWorfair

Disappointing doesn't mean it's bad, it just means that it didn't live up to the hype.

Heavy Rain, it was a completely awful game and a complete disappointment IMO.

StealthMonkey4

Seriously? I thought it was awesome.

Littlebig planet 2, i just couldn't get the online to work, shame really because i really enjoyed the first one.

Totally forgot about GTA IV. After San Andreas, the game was just inexcusably boring.

for me, Gran Turismo 5. it was originally THE game that got me into buying a PS3, and i had very high expectations for it. it's not a bad game, sure... but let's just say it's a far cry from the platform defining experience I expected. I was very disappointed.

GTAIV - I've been a big fan of the GTA series since the original and GTAIV had to be the most disappointing in the series the Niko was dull even Claude from GTA 3 who never spoke had more of a personality. San Andreas had loads of different things like the ghetto, the forest, city, casinos etc while your back in the boring bland city of Liberty City where everything feels the same. The missions were repetitive as well and it had no side mini games like in Vice City you could go in the Destruction Derby. I had more fun with Ballad of Gay Tony. I'm just glad THQ/Volition made Saints Row 2 as that's what I call a fun game as it doesn't take it's self seriously and it has plenty of stuff to do once to finish the game.

GT5 was disappointing considering it took all those years to develop it just didn't really have much to show for it. It's the last GT game I'm buying I think I'd rather stick with Codemasters Dirt and GRID series. How can anyone find B-Spec mode in GT5 interesting or fun it's awful.

What do you think? I felt Far Cry 2 had all the makings of a really good game but was let down by a number of unecessary elements. GTA 4 I also felt was worse than expected, not bad just not what I had really wanted from the game, a bit too dark and sluggish. Another one would be Killzone 3, not because I didn't like it, I just felt it was the same as Killzone 2 in a lot of respects and worse in others such as storyline; the single player also seemed to rely on visuals rather than engrossing gameplay and character development, not to mention the abrupt ending.

Any games that spring to mind?

I agree about Far Cry 2, even though it isn't a console exclusive. Heavenly Sword is one that really sticks out if you want to pick a ps3 exclusive title. It was good, but should have been much better.

The Madden series.

most dissapointing game i played was r&c quest for booty. got through it in 70 mins from start to finish. no gold bolts, no holo-plans. it was boring

No doubt: GTA IV

And I'd also say Skate because I was expecting something like Tony Hawk

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is the only game I've ever returned to the store on account of suckage. The game is beautiful looking, but balls.

*Final Fantasy XIII is a close second.

but they were to some people. i think all the games mentioned were a little dissapointing. it doesn't mean they were bad, it means they were hyped up, were described alot better than what they came to be, or are part of a big franchise which make amazing games and didnt live up to the game prior to this one.

gta4 was a dissapointment and bored me, and just wasn't as good as san andreas or vice city, it seemed to be heading a nice way when vice city came out then san andreas built upon that. and then we got gta4, sluggish, washed colour morbid, not much to do game.

la noire: was fantastic playing it fully enjoyed it, but it ended, felt dissapointment to how the story ended and then realised it was just a matter of pressing a button everywhere at the crime scene to pick up clues, and then when i really looked at it, it was more of a beta test for the facial expression graphics, more than a real game in it self, plus it was really short.

gran turismo 5: of course that was a dissapointment it didn't bring anything new to the table. nor was the graphics for the damage any good when you have games already out there with full complex damage systems, and it was still the same old race the same race many many times just to earn enough money, was ridiculous the prices for cars to races ratio for me. esps when we had been waiting years and years for the game and it was still dated when it came out,

I'm guessing none of you have ever played 'Turning Point'.

I know I'm the only person in the World who doesn't like AC2. Don't hate me for it. I am going to give all these games another try btw.Weenski

I'v never liked any Assassins Creed game.

People who said Duke Nukem Forever: Yep. 30-90 seconds load time each time you die or enter a new area? BS.

People who said GTAIV: GTAIV is not a bad game, it's just not really GTA. I think of GTA as an unrealistic, cartoony, fun-as-hell sandbox, and they turned it into a realistic 3rd-person shooter. So yeah I agree it's a dissapointment

People who said Heavenly Sword: I didn't have high hopes for the game, but I agree that it sucks.

People who said Dead Island: Yeah that was probably my #1.

People who said Red Dead: What? This is the only good Rockstar game for the PS3 (hopefully Max Payne 3 will be good)

Person who said Heavy Rain: NO. This game was awesome.

Person who said Killzone 2: Could not agree more about the control scheme. If it weren't for those stupid controls, I wouldve been able to make it past level 3. Graphics were pretty crappy too.

People who said the Assasin's Creed series: I cannot believe at how bad these games were, considering they all got 9/10's and up. Those Uncharted-copcat levels were complete junk.

Shift 2: Unleashed. It was set up to be amazing, but somehow the developer's messed it up and actually went backwards instead of forwards.
