Apparently disappointment is governed far more by expectations, than execution. I saw a number of good games there, but they disappoint. It is due to expectations people have of the game. The issue is far more expectations than the quality. Gran Turismo 5 on anyone's disappointment list is due to bad expectation (bar set too high) than how good it is. Another thing tending to lend towards disappointment is the belief that somehow long development times would result in something BOTH revolutionary and accessible. I do see what happened with the likes of Alan Wake getting dinged on one of the pages. And then you see Crackdown 2, which was merely a refining of the formula. It did that, with its own glitches (got rid of it because of an issue with one of the Freak lairs resetting if you wandering what shouldn't of been too far away). As far as Move and Kinect going, not sure what they were expecting. Why wouldn't Move be like the Wii? It does what the Wii does. And for Kinect, not sure what people were expecting. Anyone expecting Kinect to be a core gamer focused device?
