Love you guys. There's a sticky but you still have to post a topic about New Vegas. Honestly.

Also I say FF14 was a bigger flop.

There's a reason it wasn't hyped, and that the open beta was so close to the release. It's a terrible, terrible game.

Have you even played the game?

Gothic 4 is the biggest flop of the year, with FF14 right behind... those games got low scores.. AND they suck.

New Vegas has some bugs but is amazing.

So it was hyped to score a 4 then? What about a 5? A 6? No wait, can't be 6, then it'd still be a bigger flop, and that just can't possibly be true.

well tbh there are 2 kind of flops definitions used here FF14 is obviously the biggest flop in the industry this year but using SW rules, it wasn't really hyped over here so I'm not so sure if it is the biggest one here :?

I´ll wait until the PC review of New Vegas comes up,IGN already scored it higher than the console versions,so that may be the case here as well. That,or it´s just late.

Well it certainly wasn't officially hyped but FF is certainly not expected to score bad bypractically NO ONE in the gaming community. XIV shattered this.

7.5 still means its good, but it wasnt a 9.0 game like everyone thought it would. FFXIV is definitely the biggest flop this year

I don't see how someone can't understand that.. the game is great and all, but it was hyped AAA(9 or 9.5) and it fell quite short of that... Whatever makes you feel better.

Guys, let's be fair to the games that haven't released yet that demand an opportunity to take the coveted title of Flop of the Year. I'm looking at you GT5


[spoiler] It will probably just be FFXIV [/spoiler]

As of now, APB is the biggest flop of the year. Game is 100% dead. After that then ff14. This game though is not even close to a flop considering over 90% of the reviews are 8-9's. Yes, gamespot gave it a low average but flop to me has to be more universal then relying on 1 reviewers number to state so. No if 90% of the reviews from everywhere were 7's I could agree but this just seems more Meh then flop.

Hmm.. I'd say FFXIV is an epic disaster and not flop. The shoe just doesn't fit. A flop has to be built up to be something it's not. I think these are better candidates for the year. Sonic 4 Lost Planet 2 APB Naughty Bear C&C 4 Alpha Protocol

That would be Alan Wake.

the game was in development when MGS4 was announced and came out two years later (6 year dev time) was suppoed to be the uncharted 2 killer and take the graphics crown from PS3, AAA and also open world yada yada.

The game comes out sub HD, linear, only AA on GS and gamerankings and metric, failed on promised graphics, and sales were mediocore.

I'll have to agree with FF 14. It's pretty shocking to see a Final Fantasy game score lower than an 8.0 in my eyes.

NV was hyped, it scored well below expectations in GS. It's a flop.

FFXIV was never really hyped (maybe for its graphics only), people knew it wasn't going to be good from beta, and of course it bombed in GS.

Seriously if you're going to lolwut me and then throw out Nine-GN scores then why are you here in SW. Everything here goes by GS scores which is why I said technically.
