I see some people on here posting that this year is the year of the flop (which is true) but they think this makes this year of gaming disapointing. I disagree since AA titles and even A titles are still good. We got a lot of qulaity titles in my IMO. So I enjoyed this year very well. I just think some people on SW overexaggerates on flops, and how it ruins a title, it doesen't,it just simply means it didn't quite meet expectations. So are you disapointed with how this year turned out game wise?

God of War III and Final Fantasy XIII came along with some other great games. It wasn't disappointing. It's just not the best year in gaming ever.

The year in general was fantastic but it was disappointing in the sense that people were hyping it to be the best year in gaming and it wasn't even close to that.

Not really, i didn't buy or want many games and the ones i did want i enjoyed... So nope wasn't a flop if you ask me. Sure it could have been better, notably Alan Wake being hyped for a 10 by a lot of people... Score means everything here though it's system wars... If a single hair somewhere in a game was different from another one it'd be used to exaggerate a console... It's SW after all... I agree people pay too much attention to scores and usually say "It scored 8.5, it's a rent for me!!1!"... Which is silly as 8.5 is "Great"...

The importance of exclusive titles is massively overstated on SW, there have been plenty of killer multiplats. My only problem this year was deciding which games to buy, not a lack of choice. The crowing about exclusives flopping is just fanboy nonsense, it has no relevance in the real world.

This year was front loaded. There were a ton of great games early in the year, but the latter half has been pretty mediocre. Fortunately, there are still a lot of games from the previous years that I never played.

Q4 has been a bit disappointing, but there are games released earlier that made this year good for me, not great, but good. I'm talking about Mass Effect 2, Heavy Rain, God of War 3 and Red Dead Redemption.

7.5 isn't a bad score. Something like "5" or below would be considered bad.

I remember at the beginning,it was all out Q1. Then after that it ended up short.... In the end,Q4 +Q3 always give the lasting appeal of the year.Thats why i prefered 2007 PS3 more than 2010 PS3 (RaCTOD,Uncharted,Heavenly Sword)

2010 has certainly not been a disappointing year, not for me, anyway. I got an XBox 360 in January and I love it. It WOULD have been a disappointing year if I only still had my Wii, since I'm hardcore and the Wii is an epic fail on the hardcore front.

I've been greatly enjoying 360 games-- Mass Effect 2, Splinter Cell Conviction, Red Dead Redemption, Alan Wake, Star Wars The Force Unleashed II, Medal of Honor, and Halo Reach.

I hope 2011 is as fruitful.

No. This year was way better than 2009. Anyone who thinks this year was a disappointment because of the flops needs to GET OUT and realize that not every single game is going to be/has to be AAAA/GOTY contender.

What? How can a year with Super Mario Galaxy 2, Mass Effect 2, Red Redemption, Starcraft 2, Halo: Reach, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Metroid: Other M, etc. be considered dissapointing?

All I know is, I don't normally like platformers, and I bought Epic Yarn at launch. Yeah, 2010 has to be good, because it made me buy a platformer on launch day. Best year ever confirmed

It's not the worst, but there has been alot better. Vanquish, GOW3, and RDR saved this from being a mediocre year for me.

No this year had more than enough titles to be remembered as a great year for gaming. Mass Effect 2, Rock Band 3, Red Dead Redemption, Super Mario Galaxy 2 and God of War 3 are prime examples of what this year had to offer (a year that isn't even over yet). It may not be the best year in gaming like I had been hoping due to a few unfortunate flops, but in no way is this year disappointing

No man. You're wrong. It's not a terrible game if you had a fondness for games like Shenmue, survival horror, art house games, or the show twin peaks.

Skip RDR and go straight for MOM. It takes a dump on most of the games this year... and most of the games in the Metroid series. The only thing it can't surpass is Super. At least for now... I'm not done yet.

I actually like the game and not in a ironic way,and apparently the GB guys loved it as well.

iNDEED

this was an alright year. There were good games like mass effect 2 red dead... but alot of people who i know or even online say that reach was kinda a litte disapointing.

Gamespot did an horrible job of putting fable 3 7.5 it should of atleast had gotten 9.0.

I have a bad feeling about black ops because i remember when we all bought MW2 but it was disapointing.

Any ways the games im pumped about are brotherhood and defjam rapstar
