Games with misleading names.

What games/series have the most misleading/confusing names.

Off the top of my head...

Final Fantasy: Never final.

Legend of Zelda: About Link.

Castlevania Lords of Shadow - It's not Castlevania at all

Dead Space - space can't die

The Orange Box - the box isn't orange

LittleBigplant...The planet was actually huge and there wasn't anything little :(Funconsole

this thread just calls for this funsohng

Half Life - You start out with full life

Fallout New Vegas

There was hardly anything new about that game at all:?

Red Orchestra: There's not a single musical instrument in this game WTF! Black and White: Bahh what is with all this COLOR! Hawx: This has very little to do with birds!

Dont know about misleading, but Duke Nukem Forever is like the most appropriate name ever.

Castlevania Lords of Shadow - It's not Castlevania at all

Dead Space - space can't die

The Orange Box - the box isn't orange

GreenGoblin2099

Dead space is actually a term, the name is probably a pun off of that.

Donkey Kong: He is not a Donkey but an Ape

It's a medical term.

huh, I heard it the way I put it also though.

Wii Party - I was expecting a sausage fest:|gamefan67

Guitar Hero - You're playing a plastic instrument. There's nothing "heroic" about it.

Max Payne - It sounds like the main character could be a wrestler.

Super Smash Bros. - There are women in it. :|

If Epic Mickey gets terrible reviews, it will be a good candidate.

very true, Would make Flava Flavs Bling look like thatfake jewelry you get out of the quarter machine at Chucky Cheeses.

There are women in it for a reason:wink:

And I guess I could have worded that better too.

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties

Gears of War- there were very few gears visible and any that may have been there certainly had no direct relation to war.

Uncharted- A large portion of the areas Drake explores are in fact on a map, and are therefore charted.

Super Mario Galaxy- You do not visit galaxies... you visit solar systems. Galaxies do not have a single sun and do not consist of planets.

Red Dead Redemption- Redemption makes sense... not much is red other than the very limited amount of blood and I'm not sure why the redemption itself would be red or dead.

Resistance: Fall of Man- Well considering man at least partly defeats alien it's not the total fall of man.

Red Faction: Guerilla- What part of this game is guerilla warfare? Sure you stealthily blow **** up but once it's blown up it's not exactly guerilla tactics since you're out in the open.

Far Cry- I do not believe there are people crying from a far.

A lot of game names make absolutely no sense in relation to the game I guess :P.

This has ended up one of the funniest threads since the reaction to Dante in DMC.

Unreal Tournament 3- there was no tournament

Metal gear Solid 4- how is it solid?

Ratchet and Clank: Up your Arsenal- say it really quick and you'll know what I mean ;)

Kane and Lynch: Dead Men - They're not dead.

Quake: There is no Quake in the game at all

Donkey Kong 2 and 3: Donkey Kong wasn't in both games

Donkey Kong: He is not a Donkey but an Ape

Grand Theft Auto 4: Has the GTA name but yet it isn't fun at all

"The Legend of Dragon"

Every time I see this PS2 game on the shelf, I think it is a re-packaged version of The Legend of Dragoon on the PS. Then I am sorely disappointed every time I pick it up.
