Well, it was a bad game so it probably deserved the questioning.
Heavenly Sword was questioned, it turned out average.
Anygame that hypes what it looks like over what it plays like deserves to be questioned.
Ratchet & Clank: TOD was questioned, it turned out good yet too short for everyone.
I don't know about it being too short (I have never heard that and I didn't finish it) but was this game every actually questioned or are you just making things up?
Resistance: FOM was questioned, turned out good yet gamers said "It's no Halo"
This game just isn't that good. It only sold so much because it was a launch game (and don't get me wrong, not a bad launch game at all).
Motorstorm was questioned, turned out decent, yet gamers said "It's boring"
I didn't think there were a lot of doubts about this one leading up to release but it was in fact pretty meh.
Killzone/Heavy Rain/Infamous/White Knight Story although have not been released yet, have all been put into question whether it will be good or not.
Killzone 2 - See Heavenly Sword comment.
Infamous - From what I've heard this is just supposed to be bad.
Gran Turismo Prologue, despite excellent reviews, people say "It's a demo, not a real game"
Isn't it a demo and not the real game?
Littlebigplanet in particular has recieved the most put into question, even though people who have played it said it is going to be the most innovative game ever, 360 fanboys in particular would say "What's the point of the game??"
I question the game but not for that reason. I don't think the game is going to get the insane community it deserves and it will fall into a small close knit community.
Even MGS4 is being panned with "Too many cutscenes" or "Installs" despite it's gameplay being impressive.
When more than one source comes forward talking about insane long cut scenes it's alright to get worried.
The biggest Irony is between Haze and Too Human. Both have recieved huge ass delays, yet it was Haze that was said to be not so good before it even came out which it wasn't. But for Too Human, people are saying it's going to be "Awesome" even though they were the same people who said delays is not a good thing for the game which means it isn't good.
I don't know about Too Human, but everything about Haze screamed overly generic. Also the delays with Haze were a month before release when print ads were already being published with the release date so the delays are very different.
The point is, every single first party game Sony announces, it will be put into question and generally negative each time. Why is that? Why are first party Microsoft games always praised even without screenshots, trailers or little details of that game?
Some games just deserve to be questioned and don't think *only* Sony games are questioned.
Halo 3 - is it going to be just another Halo?
Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Kart Wii, Super Smash Bros Brawl - Haven't we already bought this game?
Also, as for Uncharted (since someone mentioned it), the game had a really unimpressive demo which raised a lot of questions. Luckily the game at least turned out to be good.
