Biggest Letdown This Generation

i'll have to go with Assassin's Creed, it was ok but didnt blow me away as i thought it should have, never mind

GTA IV. Go here, shoot people, escape from police. Rinse, repeat. Repetitive gameplay that the reviewers who gave it a 10 seem to have conveniently not mentioned. 35% of the way through the game and thats all I have done. Oh and a few car chases thrown in. At least San Andreas had a bit of variety in the game.

For me it would have to be Assassin's creed a little bit. The story is over so quick missioning it around the cities endlessly not doing much wasn't much fun =/

Also, dare i say it... I came late to CoD4, people telling how damn good it was, and in the end I was slightly underwhelmed. I preferred Halo 3 in the end, having played both through, online and offline

The PS3.

Sony promised so much and failed on every front. The lack of high quality games is crippling.

How can the PS3 be the most disappointing?

It had a poor first year but I think it's starting to make up for it quickly. If your going to point out the PS3's first year then why is the 360 hardware not just as disappointing?

Because everyone is entitled to their own opinion which may not be the same as yours.

Assassins Crud.

Could have been so much more, lazy, dull, easy and a combat system that would make a disney game proud.

Kids will be wow'd by the graphics.

Completely agree. Major struggle for me forcing myself to play past the first hour. Sadly, the second hour proved just as terrible. Waste of money.

Because there are 2 ps3 games out now I'd like to play but more than 20 360 games.

Might as well say what everyone is thinking... 360.

Being one of the first to mention it. Seems you are out of touch with everyone.

Well I disagree with that.

I'm just saying I think the faulty 360 hardware and the poor start of PS3 even themselves out.

Why are you pointing out the obvious?

I'm only asking a question so that other users can explain their comments.

heheh check his sig .... although ill admit it made me chuckle, and who'd have geussed blu-ray would win!

Still saying the 360 is a let down is a bit, far fetched, but an opinion nonetheless and your entitled to it.

250 quid for a 360 at launch

425 quid for a PS3 at launch, over a year later, and absolute sweet **** all to show for it.

Get it?

I wouldn't say every front. PSN is pretty damn good for free and Blu-Ray is ace.

Not surprising judging from the poster. Just ignore him.

Well, if you insist that spending 425 is as bad as spending 250...
