Killzone 2.
The hype train for it was monstrous, it was built up as the ultimate killer app that would set a new standard for first person shooters.
Then it released, and it was thoroughly mediocre. The devs' attempts to simulate the character's weight and momentum just made it feel like I was controlling an obese drunkard, the admittedly impressive graphics technology was wasted on endless grey and brown industrial areas, the characters and story were horrid, and the gameplay a bland laundry list of first person shooter cliches.
Thankfully it's sequel was excellent and improved just about everything wrong with 2.

Really? to me kz2 is the most atmospheric shooter ever, well at that time anyway. From the pacing to the graphics, played it in one playthrough and loved it, found it very immersive, as though i was there.

Yeah really, for all the reasons I listed. It did have a strong atmosphere, I will give it that, but the actual process of playing it felt like a chore to me.
Killzone 3 in my opinion is how 2 should've been; more varied in visuals and gameplay, and much more responsive controls.
