Forums - Gaming Discussion - What games had the most unrealized potential for greatness?

As in games you feel could’ve been better.

I’d have to choose Geist.

Since that game had a brilliant concept, of possessing objects and people, in order to progress; that unfortunately was poorly implemented with a bad game engine, and was sometimes hard to figure out how to proceed. Which is a shame, since the game was so original otherwise.

Have any additional games to list?

I will just leave this here

Check out my hype threads: Cyberpunk, and The Witcher 3!

Geist came out on the wrong console. It was a mistake to release a game aimed at teens for a console aimed at children.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Alan Wake for me... Not saying it is an bad game but it is sad that it ended up so linear while it would have been an sandbox game,  the idea of Alan wake being in an open world setting..Well I would have loved that :).



 

Anything from Peter Molyneux. 

I remember him talking about the first Fable and thinking it will change gaming. It's a shame he barely ever even gets close to the potential he clamis his games have.



Bully.

There's just so much that can be done with the game.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Not to mention being less gun-ho and more atmospheric and creepy.

Hey, the first Magic Carpet and Syndicate were cool games.

And Theme Park and Dungeon Keeper.
