Game-wise, which game/announcement/delay was the biggest disappointment for you in the last 8 months?

If you're gonna list a game... for it to be a big disappointment, you'd have to have been pretty hyped for the game and it would have had to fall short of expectations.

Mine would be:

Wasn't crap or anything, just expected a bit more from an FF title. I have a feeling SE rushed this, so hopefully with the next one for DS, they take more time to update everything, and not just the graphics.

Anyhoo, what do you guys think? What was your biggest disappointment in the last 8 months?

It would be Assassin's Creed.

It was fine playing it at the start, I understood all the Sci-Fi stuff, but was it really neccesary to do the same thing 9 times?

That my arch-nemesis Streisand didn't spontaneously drop dead.

Oh, you meant in terms of gaming.

I would have to say it was Mass Effect. Still a great game, but I was hoping for a LOT more.

It was a somewhat enjoyable game (played through most of it on my friend's PS3), but just not as good as I expected. It was nowhere near as bad as reviewers said it was, but still dissappointing.

I bought Super Mario Bros. 2 on VC. Not good at all. Of course, it isn't a real Mario game, so that's what I get.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Assassin's Creed.

Both for being so damn repetitive. I have yet to complete either one.

Spore being delayed from 07 to 08.Gimli524

that was my biggest gaming news disappointment.

the biggest game disappointment was probably MOHH2 for Wii. It have great controls but was just too derivative like the review stated. they need to do more with the story.

second would be Zack and Wiki. it's a great puzzle game but i didn't feel they did a good job with the adventure aspects. the world was meh. and the characters blah. the story and atmosphere was that of a bad anime.

Mass Effect is by far the biggest disappointment of the last two years for me. I anticipated that game as BioWare's second coming, a return to form the way they used to be back in BGII. Instead I got a scifi version of GRAW mixed with a conversation system from KotOR (not a bad thing) and a story and planetary exploration system that was almost completely ripped from Star Control 3 (a bad thing), which was itself already a sub-par game.

NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams (Wii)

Amazing let down from the original. Dialog ruined the whole mysticism and feel of the game. Awful gameplay variations. On-foot stages, what the hell?

Beautiful Katamari (360)

Short, unispired and more expensive. You have to purchase additional content that is already inside the game, and you can't even complete many of the achievements without it.

Thanks for ripping off your fans, Namco-Bandai.

Halo 3, waited in line for 6-8 hours, spent 130$, ugh... at first it was good, but it aged SO FAST!!! I played Halo 2 for a year and a half before I once thought this game is old. It took 3 1/2 months for me to feel the same way about Halo 3. But by no means is it a bad game, just didn't live up to my hype.

Really? I loved it. Its nothing like MoH. It has one of the best campaigns out there, but a little short. And the multiplayers one of the best on the 360. What more could you want?

My biggest was that Brawl was delayed again, but in terms of game quality, my biggest disappointment is probably Guitar Hero III. They totally went ahead and sucked the fun out of Guitar Hero. Woohoo.
