Worst Game of the Year 2015 - WGOTY!

Neil79 · 21 Dec 2015 at 14:58

So we've banged on about the game of the year 2015, but which in your opinion was the most disappointing! This can include Early Access

For me it just has to be either H1Z1 or Raven’s Cry!

In H1Z1 it started off so well but as soon as Daybreak took over it went to ****. Nearly everything was put towards Battle Royale with some of the worst Zombies I've seen since DayZ SA! Raven's Cry was just awful from the word go, looked bad and ran as such, probably the worst performing game of 2015

I would say this year has not held as many big flops as 2014 and I have managed to stay away from the really disappointing ones.

It was nice to see The Forest continue to get regular updates which are game changing (introduction of stealth, Co-Op), as well as optimisations in building and in the UI.

Evolve was a disappointment for me. What little gameplay it had was okay but it felt like a quarter of a game with twice the pricetag of a normal game.

BF Hardline for me. Got a refund for it after a day.

Just Cause 3 has to be up there for me, could have been great but it's basically a Just Cause 2 dlc with a few gimmicky gadgets added and the same repetitive crap with no improvement on vehicle physics, what a shambles.

Hardline from word of mouth, never played it myself.

SonniLombardi · 21 Dec 2015 at 15:26

Fallout 4

Not really

Was going to give it a go but the the forums oozed with disappointment before i got the chance to buy it.

Hardline. Bought it, refunded within 2 hours.

Evolve hands down wins this award. There is no doubt in my mind that their shoddy dlc practise before release and exclusive preorder retailer content killed the game before it left the shelves. They trumped EA therefore what would have been a straight award for Hardline has now been given to Turtle Rock's Evolve, plus I wanted Left 4 Dead 3 and not that ****.

I cant believe this is an acceptable standard for AAA titles. The fact that they still make cash and pump out title after title knowing full well that people will buy it and only a fraction would return it is proof of that.

Fallout 4. Piece of hopeless shovelware. Considering how much financial resource Bethesda have & how little they put into Fallout 4 is shocking :eek:

Basically they reused all their old tech systems added some awkward to use but glitchy crafting systems then went about creating some very similar missions as filler (no doubt the DLC will be the only different missions crafted).

2015 has seen more than ever unfinished glitchy games released for full price for indie & big publishers are both as guilty.

Steam must also be held accountable yes they offer refunds now but also offer so many shovelware titles & or early access games which quite frankly should be given away for free as that's all their worth but Valve had to make some money from it so allowed these tiles onto Steam. Lets face it most of them are utter garbage :rolleyes:

Bar humbug as well

+1 Evolve is absolutely the worst game of 2015.

Arkham Knight. A game that was supposed to be fixed in the next patch, but is STILL being "fixed" by the devs.

What a pony.

I heard that they can't fix it and just leaving it?

agnes · 21 Dec 2015 at 15:54

2 AAA titles for me that were flops...

Starwars Battlefront, what a joke EA, what a ****ing joke.

Fallout 4, I'm sure I'll like it in time. It's just nothing compared to other RPG's, very shallow and empty.

Seanspeed · 21 Dec 2015 at 15:57

Haven't played a bad game all year, quite honestly. I can think of one that I felt was mediocre, but it didn't come out this year(Killzone Shadowfall).

I've really got nothing to contribute. People will probably list a bunch of decent/ok games, because most people probably aren't going around buying the titles out there that are truly bottom-tier.

FIFA 16.

Same rubbish, year on year, slightly improved graphics but otherwise, same massive waste of money.

This!

I can't see how there are any contenders!

In terms of most disappointing, I would agree with Evolve - had so much potential, and just didn't get anywhere near
