Forums - Gaming Discussion - Top 10 Biggest Flops of 2012: Let's discuss

tonymarraffa on 08 December 2012

Even though I enjoyed it I'd give this one to Fable the Journey. 80,000 sales that's worse than most Vita games. It should be at number 1 FLOP. It was way to linear. It did have great graphics and music and an OK story though.

Software-wise, this was not Sonys year at all.

you can make such a top10 list with Sony exclusives (PS Vita / PS3).

Twisted Metal
Starhawk
Sorcery
AC Liberation
CoD Declassified
LBP Karting
PSABR
Resistance Burning Skies (Meta 60, sold 0.17m)
Modnation Racers: Road Trip (Meta 52, sold 0.10m)
Wonderbook (Meta 72, less than 8k in its first month in the US, less than 11k wordwide)

Sure, you can't expect every game to do well. There will always be a flop every now and then, but that is way too much.
Still, the internet will praise Sony for their unrivaled 1st party studios...


I literally had every one f those games on my list when narrowing down aaccept starhawk and modnation.  I also had 007, Epic Mickey, and Raccoon City as well though.

Also, PSASBR has sold 0.18m on PS3 and 0.04m on PSV in its first week, which is great.

hell no. it is horrible. People here were predicting something in the 3 - 5 million range.


3 - 5 million first week!?!?! HAHAHHAHAHA who are these people? the only predictions I saw were 1 million LTD for PSASBR.

Declassified is so so fun online! :)
Sadly I never had the chance to do ANY mission, and I had it for only 1 week until my Vita broke. LOL.

I agree although it's a fantastic game.



bonkers555 on 08 December 2012

I agree with everything on the list except for Dead or Alive 5. Great game and I really think that we are really under tracking it here.

Resi 6 was a super flop. So disapointing. Even more annoying is I know I will buy it again when it comes to Wii U.

Why on earth you will re-buy a game that you don't like?

I'd say cod black ops 2 on Wii U is the biggest flop. Compare the sales to other versions, it is just terrible.
