Red Dead Redemption.
I remember reading posts here claiming it to be the real GTA4 and stuff like that.

Red Dead Redemption was a hundred times the game GTA4 ever dreamed of being... period. GTA4 is the biggest dissapointment this entire generation. lousy, boring tech demo garbage... i could go on for days about how terrible that game was.

Final Fantasy 13 and 14.

Also why is Gt5 on the list? This isn't supposed to be a fanboy war is it?

whats "lol" is that a sony fanboy complained about people chosing GT5 and then chose Alan Wake. Did you ever think that maybe GT5 actually IS the biggest disappointment?

Medal of Honor, was thinking it was going to be so much more, But it's just nothing new, and it doesn't do its already conventional gameplay with anything that makes it better or even stand out from the crowd.

Not to say I didn't enjoy the game, it's fun, just dissapointing.

The beauty of opinion... I honestly cant see how you can say Red Dead wasnt a triumph in every way. It wasnt even hyped heavily yet it surpassed every expectation people had for it. Chinatown wars was better than GTA4 if im being honest.

My biggest issue with GTA4 was that it just,,, i dont know, wasnt fun! It was an absolute chore to play that game. Its obviously impressive to realize the scope and care that went into liberty city but as a game i couldnt have been more bored or frustrated with the way that game plays... I could sink a hundred hours into chinatown and still be entertained. Red dead was just so refined and flowing in my opinion.

I didn't think Fable 3 was all that bad...I went in with fairly low expectations and finished the game pleasantly surprised

NFS: Hot Pursuit. The SP mode has completely broken amounts of cheating AI and rubber banding. I mean, it's just insane.

I don't see how this award could possible be given to any other game then GT5. The game has been in production for so long. It has been delayed for so many times. It's also one of the most expensive gamesever in the history of gaming. It was touted by Cows to rival Crysis in graphics (something that of course within the laws of technology is impossible). All these years we were fed CGI clips and bull shots to keep our expectations sky high. Cows went on like broken records about how loussy Forza 3 looked in comparison to these bull shots.

And what happens when the game gets released??

It's a sloppy unfinished game with inconsistent graphics not even on par with Forza3. After all this I was expecting something extraordinary but was majorly let down.

Yeah, the sheer degree by which Forza 3 wipes it's butt with GT5, and the fact that it spent much less time in development to do so, is pretty insane.

The only people that seem to be really disappointed are the 360 fanboys and others who haven't even played it. :P

I haven't seen many people disappointed who are actually playing it.

The title says "Biggest Disappointment of 2010" not "Worst Game of 2010".

GT5 is not a bad game, it's actually a rather good game, well worth it's 8.6 at Metacritic.

But yes, worst of the bunch is FFXIII no doubts.

FF13 is the worst game i have played in my gaming life, it is the first game ever that there is nothing good about, not a single thing, and everything is terrible

FF14 is the only worst, but i dont play online, so i dont count it

In general, Square is dead to me, i will never even rent another game or FF from them

Alan wake is my 2ond best game in 2010, so what is it doing in that list ?

It's funny how so many people are bashing down games based entirely on what IGN (or whatever) says. "Lukewarm" reviews? As far as I can tell, GT5 is getting excellent reviews. I guess if you expected nothing but 10 star ratings across the board, you can call the responses "lukewarm". But really, play the damn games for yourself and decide what truly is the most disappointing game of the year for YOURSELF and not what others tell you.

dissapointmen =/= bad

They could great games on their own merits but still be the biggest dissapointsments of the year. Since some games have a history of past instalments they expect them to improve on their formula. It also doesnt help their case when the developers promise so much and hype them through the roof.

Metroid Other M because it lacked the awesomeness of the Prime games, the refilling of missles and energy sucked as well as the story and the combat.

None from that list. I'd say Force unleashed 2. While it was a fun game, It just didn't feel like it did anything hugely different to the first game. It's visuals were stunning though.

That's not what I'm trying to say. I'm saying it's silly people are giving a game the low end of the stick based entirely on reviews. I know some people around here who are criticizing GT5 to its grave haven't even played it. I think that's just sad.

Either Alan Wake or Final Fantasy IV. A former PC developer hardly flopping in console and a former console developer flopping in PC market. Delicious.

GT has not even been out for a week yet and the GS review is not in so how can we already list this?

devious742

I think its painfully clear that it will not be living up to the enormous hype... sorry. one review outlet isnt going to change that.

sorry bud :(a GS review is the only thing that holds any weight here..you are in SW..cmon... you should know this;)

It holds weight for flops, not disappointments. Anyway, from that list I would say FF13.

GT 5 should've been a great game very close to a perfect 10 and more fun to play. That's a long time to develop a game and not make it near perfect.

Halo Reach probably, it was a game i had very high hopes for, but the multiplayer went dry so fast and the single player was decent, I did expect much more.

What's up with the GT5 disappointment?
Haven't played it,but is it that disappointing?

Lto_thaG

Not really. Actually I think the game is pretty damn amazing. What shortcomings there are seem to be getting blown way out of proportion. People seem to think a long dev cycle should = the 2nd coming. Like you put the game into your PS3 and it transforms into any car of your choice or some ****. Your expectations have to be ridiculously, unrealistically high to consider the game the biggest disappointment of the year. Not to say I'm not seeing justified complaints. The game isn't perfect.

But when you simply evaluate the game on its own merits, the game is outstanding.

Also this is SW of course. One of the biggest exclusives of the gen just released. One that has been hyped on this board since before the PS3 even released. I would be more surprised if it wasn't winning this poll right now.
