Halo 3 - i was new to the series and after having heard so much hype i was expecting a half-life beater but its nowhere near.

GTA4 - great game but over too quick and i somehow feel like we are being milked by R* (redoing the PS2 games over again in a new engine)

Over too quickly? It's about 60 hours of gameplay to get all the achievements, story is ~20-30 hours. Not really short, but it is very repetative.

Bioshock - Cant even be bothered to play past the first level, i should give it a chance but then again maybe the game should try harder!

Bit unfair to say it's the biggest disappointment this generation when you've not even played the first level :p.
 
Biggest disappointment:

Resistance: Fall of Man
Ratchet & Clank: ToD
Heavenly Sword
Assassins Creed

Most of all would have to be the Nintendo Wii though.
 
Assassins creed - choppy framerates really annoy me, also nower near as good as i expected
halo3 - I played halo 1 to he death because it was awesome, however this is not awesome

the nintendo wii.....im not 7years old. I think that due to the dreadful dated hardware the console will be needing a replacement in a years time.

*Jumps on the bandwagon* Assassins Creed for me, not because of the repetitive gameplay because all games are like that if you break them down. But because they didn't offer anything like the initial concept, of being able to plan your attacks, using stealth or brute force and then escaping away using the crowd to your advantage.

All the "bosses" where setup with no planning at all. Then it was simple few button presses then run for it.

Can't believe some people are saying Halo 3 as well, if you expected anything different to what was delivered, its your own fault for falling for the mainstream hype machine.
 
having yet to play GTA4 I'll reserve judgement

Big titles would have to be Halo 3, complete tripe IMO

Smaller title let downs : can't think at the moment
 
Halo 3 for me too.

It's only saving grace was the fact that all of my mates got it at launch like me so online was a laugh. It filled a gap before CoD4 anyway.
 
Id go with resistance, I was relaly looking forward to a quality title from insomniac. I think its just average at best.
 
I'd go with Bioshock. I was expecting a modern Deus Ex/System Shock 2 but it turned out to be very dull indeed. Still forced myself to complete it but it was a big BIG letdown. Fortunately The Darkness arrived a month or so earlier and that evened the balance.
