My 5 Biggest Disappointments of the Generation

[theRepublic]

My biggest disappointments this gen:

1. The lack of journalistic integrity for both articles and reviews.
2. The fact that I've seen better game ideas come from members of this site than actual game developers.
3. The willingness of people to pay for downloadable content.
4. The fact that many developers won't even take advantage of one of the Wii remote's most obvious strengths, the IR pointer.
5. Sequelitis. I'm not sure if there actually are more sequels this generation, but it certainly feels like it.

Games:

1. Halo 3 - Halo 2 was such an improvement over the first game that I expected the same for the third installment.  Halo 3 was still a great, highly polished game, but it felt like more of the same from Halo 2, and I was expecting more.
2. Gyrostarr - An impulse buy that didn't turn out so well.
3. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure - The last four levels are terrible compared to the rest of the game.  It left me with a bad taste in my mouth that was made worse after listening to all the praise this game gets here at VGC.
4. Okami - I'm 30 hours in, and it has lost my interest.  Hopefully, I will finish someday soon.
