I don't understand HOW you can be anticipating Blue Dragon, the demo was a mockery to every RPG ever made, its so cliche.

The Darkness

This game had so much potential. It immersed you so well into the environment and gave you a great story. But the controls were a little sloppy and the end of the game was terrible.

Concur, and as far as Blue Dragon goes. Go play FF7 and then look what he has made of this disaster piece. The Dialogue was mundane, and boring, I could and hope I'm wrong and it turns out being a great story. Just the demo left me with a rather sour taste in my mouth.

Halo 2, after loving Halo: CE so much. It's left a bitter taste that makes it difficult for me to hype Halo 3.

For me it was Legend of Mana.

I loved (L O V E D) Secret of Mana and Secret of Evermore on the SNES. And the instant the translated version of Secret of Mana 2 hit the interweb (Seiken Densetsu 3) I downloaded it and beat it in a week.

So lo and behold I find out the next great "Secret of Mana" is finally coming to the PS1. I bought the game and after playing it for 30 minutes returned it to EB. When they asked why I was returing it, my response was "You forgot to sell me the plot when you sold me this game."

Biggest ... letdown ... ever.

Halo 2......i was so hyped after Halo 1:(, wasnt a bad game by all means, but i expected much more from them

That and belive it or not Half Life 2, i herad such great things about it, but i love the mods for it. Like SMOD it acually makes me enjoy the Single Player after the 2nd time:D

Funny becuase there both games in my two favourite series:)

I guess Mario Power Tennis, and Simpsons Hit & Run. Both were crap games.

At least Power Tennis had a nice visual style but the sound was as appealing as the sound a human carcase being grated, and the gameplay was sooooooooooo cheap. I couldn't believe the N64 game has actually BETTER gameplay than the GC one, even today.

Simpsons was cruddy for a few reasons: crap graphics, awful driving mechanics, broken missions, repetitive gameplayand one ofthe worst mutliplayer modes I've everplayed. Also, the Itchy and Scratchy cartoon sucked at the end, but at least the gamewas remotely funny -still, not enough to save it beingawful.

As forupcoming releases, my hype and died down for No More Heroes.It looks really rough, I don't see what people see in it.

I was hoping for a high-intensity thrill ride, ala Burnout series, but instead I got a moderately paced, standard run-n-gun shooter with no multiplayer.

After loving every FF game I could get my hands on I was totally stoked the minute I heard about FFX. Hyped and excited up until the minute I got about 10 hours in and realized it wasn't to my liking. After FFIX it felt like a pathetic joke by Square-Enix, in my opinion. And while FFX is not a bad game, it's just meh to me.

Um the framerate was pretty solid on the demo I noticed no slowdown but as you are a hardcore lemming you have never played it and the full game isnt even out yet so dont bother.

My biggest disapointment was probably Devil may Cry 2. I was so hyped for it after the first one was amazing and I actually didnt think it was a bad game like many reviewers thought but it simply wasnt near as good as the first one. The 3rd one made up for it though.

I get exactly what he is saying. The random battle system isnt even as advanced as FF11 and it also does one of the most dreaded things that I cant stand in RPG's which is Randomly generated Dungeons where basically the whole level looks the same.

Hmm, not really. Every game I hype usually turns out just as satisfying as I pictured. Well, sometimes there are certain aspects that annoy me, but overall, I love all my games and they're all just as great as I pictured them before I owned them.

  • Red Steel, very badly rushed
  • Farcry Vengeance, pure garbage
  • Heatseeker, ugly and half broken
  • Excite Truck, way too shallow
  • Zelda TP, too easy and very boring
  • RE4: Wii Edition, controls are different not better as I expected, no visual upgrade
  • Killzone, rushed
  • Halo 2, dissapointing campaign compared to the original's
  • Fable, way too short and wanted free roaming
  • Morrowind, combat mechanics killed it
