Disappointing means severely undermet expectations to me. So, with that in mind, here are a few from MY perspective:
* Brutal Legend: I thought this was going to be like Herzog Zwei based on buzz and reviews. Had liked the world, the characters, and was getting into it... until I was FORCED to do a rhythm mini-game to order troops around and give orders? That ruined it for me, very disappointly.
* Bad Company 2: I had some reservations about it, but had hopes the humor would still be there that I liked in the original. NOPE. They totally drained it and made it more serious, but also gave me the stupid American is invaded story found in Modern Warfare 2. I miss the irreverance.
* Farcry 2: How the heck did this happen? It is supposed to do everything I want, including give me a cool story, and it just left me cold. Maybe something about having to dig a bullet out of my leg and showing it graphically really just didn't do it for me at all, and killed it. Yes, I really wanted to like this thing.
* Civ 5: Maybe it is me, or maybe the changes were too much, or maybe I have to run Steam, but I am not playing it, and Civ is like my all-time favorite franchise. I guess times change. Maybe issues with Civ 4 did it to me to.
I am sure there are others here, but those three come to mind.
