Forums - Gaming - Gametrailers: Top 10 Most dissapointing games of the decade

AnarchyWest on 06 March 2010

I like MGS2 I think it is a lot better than MGS4
I probably don't have to watch the video to find out its on the list because Raiden is the main character...most people probably don't understand why he is the main protagonist of MGS2 either but then again I don't expect most people to play MGS to understand Kojima

Update New number one:
Final Fantasy XIII

Over hyped. It was expected to be bigger than Jesus but failed to deliver. Mixed reviews on the game. Oh it will be a painful gaming experience, glad I will not play but we will hear all about it. Lowest rated main story FF game of all time.

Bombshell Edge gives it 5 out of 10.

 

 

XI is lower.

 

1UP gave it A-

Actually, it isn't. FFXI's metascore is 85, while FFXIII is at 83.

SW: G #1? It's not that bad to be the #1 disappointment UNLESS the hype revolving around it before it came out was really hype. It's a solid MMO but.....nothing to go as far to brag about.

Imagine playing an incredibly complicated and confusing broken mess of a game where entire professions didn't work, you had to walk across planets on foot, and there wasn't a single fully functional quest with an actual reward worth earning. Then imagine a community of incredibly patient and understanding people in this game and keep playing because of them. You tough it out with these people and as the months and years roll by things actually do get fixed, some promises are finally being made good on, some fun things get added, and this game starts to finally develop on it's a fraction of it's massive potential.

Then imagine one day the people who run the game decide to completely rewrite the rules on a lot of major aspects of the games, completely invalidate a lot of people's years of work, ruin tons of their own progress, introduce tons of new bugs and glitches, and a lot of your friends give up and finally quit.

Then imagine you endure, you make new friends, you adapt to the games, learn the new rules, and start having fun again. And then imagine in six months time the people who run the game completely rewrite the rules AGAIN! Imagine the development staff decide to start over on a game you're already paying a monthly subscription to play for the second time in less then a year. Imagine going through the same frustration and confusion and disbelief you had just suffered once before half a year ago. All because some executives at SOE though the game would sell better a cheap and broken third-rate copy of World of Warcraft.

I normally don't care about these silly lists the gaming sites throw around, but this, to me, is rare occasion where one of them involved someone making a pretty thoughtful choice.

Well I wouldn't go THAT far but I heard the "upgrade" (whatever it was called) made the combat worse as well. 

The "combat upgrade". It completely rewrote the game's combat system and nearly everything related to it. (Most of the damn game.) They added a level system to make it more like WoW. Before that it was like Ultima Online, you build up your skills and equipment and just went for it. No floating number above your head decided how much damage you did or how much you actually received. Super powerful weapons that cost people millions to make were adjusted into the new system and were made into completely average run of the mill junk. Doctor and chefs found there every buff item had been made mostly worthless. Armor crafting was made more difficult and expensive, yet armor was made less effective. Entertainers buffs were made useless.

And that was just the first one. Six months after that they suddenly announced the "New Game Enhancements" and released them like a day later. They removed the 32 skill professions (of which you could switch freely from and master more then one of at the same time.) and replaced them with nine "iconic" professions of which you were forcibly locked into one. They actually made Jedi a starting profession. It was a absurd on some many levels and probably one of the most insane business decisions I'd had ever seen.

@daroamer - I hear you man. I spent my first year building droids and weapons and selling them out of my little Corellian home. Good times.

MGS2 is far and away the most disappointing game I've ever played.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Thank you, thought no one else liked MGS2 more than MGS4 lol Imo, MGS4 - 9,8 out of 10, MGS2 - 9,9 out of 10.

MGS2, a dissapointment ? wow, that's a bold statement...

At the time it was my favourite game ever. Now, imo, MGS3 and MGS4 surpassed it in every way, but MGS2 is still top 5 games/experiences. One of the most thought provoking sci fi thrillers (i guess that's exactly the problem...'too' thought provoking for some).

I dunno, people seem more & more retarded these days with all these half assed 'top 10' stuff -_- It's all about traffic sadly.
