I have to say.. mine has to be Okami on the Wii. The beginning got me really hyped for the game, but nearlly three hours in and it is a bore-fest. I was hoping for a Zelda-esque experience, but haven't seen it at all so far. And on a tangent, the IGN on the boxart is extremely obvious. I could barely see it in pictures, but wow is it obvious on the box!

What about you people?

GTAIV...

Even though I enjoy the online once in a blue, the game is just boring...It definitely was not what I was looking for. Hell, I enjoy Assassin's Creed more...and that game was awesome to me.

Wario Ware smooth moves.

Proof that Jeff really isn't as good as a reviewer as most people make him out to be.

dead rising and not for the reason you might think, its because I don't have an HDTV so the reading stuff I can't read on a SDTV so I just give up and not play it. That will soon change though when I get an HDTV this coming weekend.

Pure game play wise I would have to go with Lost Odyssey

True. Splitscreen alone warrants a purchase from me!

The legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

A big disappointment if you ask me. I was also one of those idiots who were bashing gamespot for the 8.8... then I played it.

Basically... guitar hero. Not because I didn't like but because I felt a little ripped off paying $100 for it. I could have bought a better game with that money, possibly 2 better games =\

Wow, I was going to post pretty much exactly what you did as soon as I saw the title.

Yeah, boring combat really ruined it for me. Easy enemies and always being in that stupid circle= lame

I even played it for more then 11 hours, thinking it would get better considering all the praise it gets, but it never did.

Star Trek Legacy. When they announced that they had all the Captains signed on for voice acting and that you would get to play in each era I was totally stoked, but after beating the game I ended up severely disappointed. The dialogue was absolutely terrible, and Scott Bakula gave the worst voice acting performance I've ever heard. On top of that, they shoved Next Generation, Voyager, and DS9 into one campaign segment, instead of having them seperate. Horribly disappointing game.

That's why I'm having a hard time getting excited for Fallout 3, I was super hyped for both ST: Legacy and Oblivion and both times Bethesda let me down, they're 0 for 2 this gen as far as I'm concerned.

A lot of stuff was removed in GTAIV. Crazy weapons,Tanks, Parachutes,Planes. Missions were also boring and dull.

No. Okami has much more style and is an overall better game than any Zelda besides A Link to the Past. The closest another one gets is Majora's Mask and then Wind Waker.

I was kidding. One opinion can not be better then another.

With that said, I disagree with both of you.

F1:CE on PS3. I was desperate for a circuit racer, but man, did that suck. Then I was still desperate, was taken in by the new NfS promising to dump all the fast-and-furious garbage and go back to the track, and bought ProStreet. Man, did that suck.

Of course, I'm still waiting for a good circuit racer on PS3, so don't be surprised if I crack, buy Ferrari Challenge, and then post in a similar thread two weeks later about how it's a disappointment.

Assassin's Creed, it was just a bad game I thought. Pretty to look at but not all that much there content wise. Just repetitive tasks that weren't all that much fun.
