Too Human - one to rule them all.

CoD WaW Wii,

No more Heros,

Alone in the Dark



Around the Network

I would have to agree that Too Human was flop as well. So, I would say that it would be between Haze and Too Human. Both very hyped, both flopped. End result were terrible sales for both.



If you read this, slap yourself.


PS3 Trophies

Mercenaries 2 would be my vote. i wasn't happy with that game.



This hand of mine is burning red. It's loud cry is telling me to grasp victory.....SEKIHA TENKYOKEN!!!

Anyone who has COD:WOW as a flop is an idiot, give the game's sales a chance to level out before making such a call. Wii's games aren't front loaded, and haven't been since launch.

Haze has to be the biggest flop due to it sending Free Radical broke, just like Lair of 2007.

Okami shouldnt be on this list capcom have stated that they have sold more copies to customers then PS2 version (which is pretty impressive for a port), also Cod:Waw will eventually sell well.

Same with No More Heroes, Suda's 51 best selling title ever.

 

Alone in the Dark, yes. Rock Revolution, yes. Bioshock, expected. HAZE, no. Haze sold about 600k units.

Haze is by far the biggest flop of the year. Not only did it sell poorly and have a huge budget but it caused its developer to go bankrupt.

600k for Haze at this point is terrible. It probably barely broke even.



gta 4 and call of duty world at war ..yeah yeah they are selling great.. still they are both disappointing to play



People PLEASE! Don't look at the total sales of Call of Duty WaW for the Wii, look at it's freaking weekly sales. The game has ginormous legs with almost every week being higher than the last!

Geez...

My pick would be Too Human. Decent game, decent sales... but it definitely lost TONS of money.

That means disappointment, not flop.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
