Banjo Nuts and Bolts

Wii Music will flop.. It will probably sell around 1.2m ww lifetime which would be a huge disappointment for Nintendo.

Fistful of Boomstick was actually a pretty good game despite review scores especially if you like The Evil Dead movies and Ash (I never got a chance to play Hail to the King). And it only cost $19.99 when it was released. I've heard they might be working on a remake of the first Evil Dead movie now.

my vote is for Banjo

although a lower price point my save it

LBP, Killzone 2, Motorstorm 2, R2(sales wise),

With my massive brain I believe I have come up with a pattern in your choices.......wait......nope I lost it.

Hey my choices are logical and are choosen among others and I am doing my part by contributing while u are not.

The original poster qualified their statement to mean a epic failure with reviewers. That said any game that comes in on the shovel would qualify, and that list is far too long, and a utter waste of time to collate. Beyond that all the highly anticipated games have already received massive praise from reviewers. They are not apt to build a straw house.

I think the better question would be which highly reviewed title with ample hype will fail to sell a respectable number of games. To me the obvious answer is Mirrors Edge. The hype is strong with this one, but Electronic Arts failed to give it a good run up. So it will not be an ingrained need with gamers when they have so much more to choose from.

The game will receive high praise from reviewers. However even so the bleached visual effects, the focus on first person melee, and the mere fact that the game is unconventional will probably damage the sales greatly. I think Electronic Arts has probably killed off a possibly stellar game with bad planning.

This game should have been front and center six months ago. To give players more time to get excited. This game should also have been sold outside of the holiday season. Bottom line the game looks bland in comparison to the games around it. Finally this game is too radical in the realm of comfortable genre stereotypes. After all it is hard to sell someone on something new when the best of the old is on display.

Well someone has to mock you for picking games solely on those you want to fail due to your being a fanboy on the opposite side of the fence.  But here ya go:

OT: Fracture, Mirrors Edge, Sonic Unleashed.

I, and a lot of others have said Banjo....but is that game actually hyped enough to be considered a "large flop." Especially considering its pricepoint.
