:x Damn, how did I forget this game...and you just reminded me of another

Halo 2 has the best SP campaign of any shooter in gaming history imo.

The Arbiter is the greatest character in gaming history imo.

On topic: PERFECT DARK ZERO :x

1. Halo: Reach
2. Fallout 3

When I played that game, after trying to imagine the grandiose and epic portrayal that all the hype campaign and promo videos had depicted, I finally came to the conclusion that someone must have came up with the entire story while taking a dump on the toilet on their lunch break. Perhaps an employees son came up with the story while playing at recess.

*edit*

I don't want to take a dump on your opinon, but I expected so much more (also I didn't have XBL), I played thru the original Halo CE campaign at least 30 times...I couldn't even finsh H2. When you have to start imagining you are playing something diffrent than what you are actully playing just to make it seem betterfor you, you konw the game has failed you.

MGS4 and Halo 2 are the only games I've actually done that for.

L.A. Noire. I was going to buy it on several different occasions at full price. I'm glad a friend lent it to me in the end.

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Exact same story as above.

Fable II. Loved the first game and one of the main reasons I got an Xbox 360. I naively assumed it'd be as good, if not better than the original. Decent game but disappointing nonetheless.

Star Wars Force Unleashed 2.

First one was so good, and the videos made TFU2 look amazing, but the campaign was hugely disappointing and the combat system felt like it actually lost moves which was entirely the wrong way to go, plus the story was so short and lazy really.

Red Dead Redemption, the trailers did their trick and I was super hyped, it was good but not THAT good. Disappointed to see where gaming has gone when you look at how many awards it won. People moaned about GTA IV being boring but at least it had more gameplay variety, there was little else to do in RDR which is why I was disappointed.SaltyMeatballs

Super Mario Galaxy. It was my most hyped game this gen by light years, but it didn't leave a good taste in my mouth :(

Oh and of course FFXIII. Not because of the hype, but when I was playing it I kind of just accepted the "slow start" but expected to be blown away later. 50 hours later and I knew this "amazingness" wasn't there so I just gave up.

Hmm, that's a tough one but I'll say Too Human.

AVP3, Crysis 2 and Dragon Rising.

Metal Gear Solid 4, although I still enjoyed it.

Perfect Dark Zero was probably my biggest gaming disappointment ever. It was a disgrace compared to the original.

You made it 10 more hours than me, that's impressive!

:lol: Oh you

1) Except the 1st one was far better.

2) If such a generic character is the best in gaming history, we should be worried.

:lol: Oh youcasharmy

:| Could of been so much better.

Halo 2

Alone in the Dark (this gen)

Farcry 2

dead space (just found it boring) splintercell conviction (too much of a change from double agent / chaos theory) LA Noir, thought it would be interesting, turned out a turd of a game. i try not to get hyped up as it can often lead to disappointment. sts106mat

Skyward Sword (still a great game though)

Killzone 2 (though I didn't care too too much)

Halo.

Everyone was going on how good it was.But I just don't dig it.I only played 3 and ODST.At least ODST didn't put me to sleep.

I also played some Reach with a friend.The guns sound like guns now,so that's good.But I'm not buying it.
I really tried to like it because..well,it's Halo.
