danielpholt Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Everyone's had them. You wait months, even years for THAT game and then 2 hours into it, and you've lost the will to ever play a video game again. Now the first game that came into my head was Brutal Legend. I'd heard so much good stuff about that game, but when i turned it on i found myself bored inside an hour. The main game was enjoyable, but i was left cold. Aside from Jack Black being awesome, and some decent Storylines, nothing happened. Anyways. What are some of your biggest disappointments in gaming?

Eleven Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Prince of Persia, the latest game in the series. I think it's the one released close to the movie. Also, Prince of Persia 2008. The artsy one where you never die. Compare that to Sands of Time. Which was awesome until the end. Hell that Trilogy I loved them so much, even though people hate on Warrior Within a lot.

Strangelove Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I dont know whether Im easy to please, or im just the type of person to like stuff others dont, but Im not easily disappointed with my purchases. I will say one game I was disappointed in after hearing all the hype - Half Life 2. The first 2 hours are awesome, but then the jetski section comes along and ruins the entire game. That section never ends. Then you get to the zombie part and I just gave up. It was good, but that part also lasted forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I was extremely disappointed with Too Human, though luckily a shipping delay to my area meant no stores had it on release day and I ended up renting it instead of buying it.

Eleven Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 OOOOH MY GOD! I completely put that game out of my mind. I was too... I still have the disc no one wants to buy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Red Orchestra 2 for me. I preordered it, hoping to really get into it before the Battlefield/CoD crowd heard about it as the "next big thing", and it was completely unplayable for nearly a year after release. Bugs everywhere, terrible optimization, and completely broken progression across the board. Played it recently in the free weekend they had, but it still wasn't all that great, but definitely better. Completely unfathomable as to why they would put a rank/progression/unlock system in a game and then not even fix it when it horribly breaks. But, eh, Tripwire, I guess.

MetalCaveman Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I was extremely disappointed with Too Human, though luckily a shipping delay to my area meant no stores had it on release day and I ended up renting it instead of buying it. I may be the only human that enjoyed Too Human. On topic, Lollipop Chainsaw, I was expecting it to be as fun as Shadows of the Damned, but it failed, so far the jokes aren't funny, the gameplay needs improvement, a lot of combos need to be unlocked wich is annoying considering how hard it is to get the medals you need to buy them, some events can't be skipped no matter how many times you've played a level and Juliet's voice is annoying. However some say that the game gets better later on, I'll keep playing to see if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielpholt Posted June 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'll make Lollipop a rental then. Shadows of the Damned was for the most part a pretty enjoyable ride. Speaking of Too Human, my brother was super excited for that. Then he played it for about 10 minutes and decided to trade it. Collectors edition and everything.

TheMightyEthan Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I played the Too Human demo and liked it a lot, then when I rented it I was really enjoying it until the first boss fight. It was terrible and I quit playing at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I never had a problem with it, I thought it was genuinely fun, then again, I payed $20 for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
