Most Disappointing Game Of 2009

RE5 and NFS:Shift were both horribly disappointing, mainly for the control systems too.

Hard to pick a GOTY, there were many good games but none of them really stood out as better than the others :o
 
most disapointing was easily operation flashpoint

the multiplayer was awful, but the single player and co op were awesome.

i was hoping multiplayer would keep me going through till reach, turned out it didnt even last me a day.

modern warefare 2 gets a honorable mention but i already knew it'd be cack. i honestly don't know how people missed the fact the first one was a massive pile of sh** (single player that is, multiplayer is decent)

IW are really a sub standard developer, it amazes me how they sell so many copys.
 
I'd vote for TH ride if i had only played it lol

The reviews where so universally bad for this game i avoided it. If i had found it for under 50 bones during the holidays i would have bought it as well lol
 
MW2 I'd have to go with kept it for 5 weeks then traded it in. SP was good but the multiplayer ruined it be it both the game issues and those in the community that exploited them no end... loads of fun erm not :/

Borderlands was good but the end has to be one of those most disappointing ever!
 
I would like to amend my choice to ghostbusters. What a steaming pile of festering ****.

Love Gb but this is a 4 hour game on normal with zero depth and variation. It's truely one of the worst games I have played through released last year.
 
I'm torn between two games really.

Red Faction: Guerrilla

Still annoyed that I paid a good £45 for the game, when it dropped significantly a few weeks later. The demo I enjoyed, but the main game just got boring so quickly. What they have done with the damage physics for destroying buildings was great, but it felt too much of a gimmick, like that was all there was too the game.

Not to mention the actual combat wasn't that well executed and it's a sandbox game that all looks the same, and all you do seems to be the same. I'm not sure I'll ever bother to finish it.


Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

I sat on the fence with this one, and when the bad reviews came in, I decided to rent it. Oddly enough, I've had it for a couple of months now (Love Film) and should really have returned it, because I doubt I'm going to bother with it again.

It promised a lot from the trailers and dev diaries, but in the end turned out to be terrible.

I encountered a bug that left me stuck on the first level of the game until I blew myself up. The squad AI is often terrible, they can be stood right next to an enemy and will do nothing. It's not always easy to tell who is an enemy and your team, as they look so similar.

Massive let down.
I think Flashpoint takes it.
 
Have to say, although not an awful game, HALO3 ODST was deffinitely disappointing.

It didn't really feel like much of a game to me, I wanted it to end ASAP.
 
Modern Warfare 2.

COD4 was pretty much perfection, WaW was great fun too.

Everyone thought IW could pull off a further miracle, but they failed miserably, and largely as the maps were terrible.

The other would be Fifa 10. The manager mode is just so full of bugs, and bugs that EA just aren't bothered about ever fixing.

Its like paying £35 for a beta.
