L.A. Noire and RAGE comes in right behind it. I overhyped L.A. Noire and RAGE was just super boring ...

L.A. Noire is never meant to be a GTA in 40s. It needs intelligent to solve the mysteries of crimes and investigations.

I would pay so many dollars for GTA 1940s. So many. Also DA2 was the only game I was disappointed with this year.

None. I was perfectly happy with all of the games that I purchased this year.

Much as I may hate to say it, I might have to go with Skyrim. Still a great game, but the more I play it, the more flaws I seem to be noticing. 

A mention for L.A. Noire too, primarily because of the reptitive nature of the game. DA2 as well, for reasons often repeated.

That's every Bethesda game ever lol. You should've expected that 

Eh most dissapointing game I'd say Assassins Creed Revelations. Its not a bad game and in fact its a great game to me but it used to many of brotherhood's features instead of putting in enough new ones. I personally couldn't see how much more you could improve on the game since the gameplay was already rather great.

Yes I played DA2 but it won't make it on my most dissapointed list. I enjoyed and they did improve on some things that annoyed the hell out of me in DAO. If the game wasn't rushed it would likely be better than DAO.

Dragon Age 2, without doubt. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth just thinking about it.

[Melra]

Witcher 2 by far.

Haha, you would think at this point that I should be accustomed to it. I let my mind start playing tricks on me again.

Bethesda always trick their fans. They spend a few years making their games giving us hopes that it will have a great story, no bugs and keep the excellent large sandbox world. Skyrim does the last part perfectly and improves a small amount on the former. If you want a large sand box world with Great story force Bethesda to get Obsidian to make another Fallout game. Just be prepared for the bugs lol.

[LPPrince]

[Homebound]

EA's decision to make Origin software mandatory

I only needed it to order ToR online other then that its uninstalled. How is it mandatory?

Skyrim disappointed me the most this year.

Well Sword of the Stars 2 was worse but that was my fault for not picking up I needed a 64 bit os for it. That will be fixed with my tax refund and a brand new PC.

IMO, this has been the worst year for games I can remember...

1. Dragon Age 2 - Redesigned for no reason, and ended up horrible because of it. Then the developers interviews are insulting to RPGers.

2. Stronghold 3 - Pushed out the door in Beta form because the Publisher can't be bothered letting it be finished.

3. Sword of the Stars 2 - Pushed out the door in Pre-Beta form because the Publisher can't be bothered letting it be finished.

4. Heroes of Might and Magic 6 - Designed by someone who's never played either Heroes of Might & Magic, nor a strategy game, and ended up pathetic because of it. Plus, the voice acting is so painfully bad even a child would cringe.

5.  Dead Island - Great premise,  interesting crafting system,  fair leveling system bolted onto an adventure game...that ends up completely hamstrung by auto-leveling critters eventually leaving you to get killed over and over and over.  I swear the worst innovation in gaming history is auto-leveling critters,  I can't imagine anyone finds this preferable to the previously used gradient-difficulty system.

6.  Dead Space 2 - Pathetic PC port.  Mandatory DLC.  One of the worst games I've ever bought,  only slightly better than Heroes 6.  It could've been a great game,  if they had bothered to put more than 10 minutes into the PC version. 

Dishonorable Mentions:

X-com's an FPS!

Syndicates an FPS!

EA and Ubisoft publicly state even RTS isn't "Worth making" anymore.

Bethseda finds more ways to remove RPG elements because they've no idea what an RPG is, and then go on to release a game so buggy that the PS3 is completely hosed. (Which is probably the first time in gaming history anyone's managed to release a game in an unplayable state on a console, no surprise Bethseda managed it given that their release canidates resemble everyone else's Beta's.

E3, over 90% of what was shown was Yet Another Shooter, almost nothing but Shooters are being developed.

Diablo 3, automated leveling and online only gameplay. Diablo 3 and Mass Effect 3 are neck-in-neck in the "What'll be the biggest disappontment of 2012" contest.

It's been a disappointing year all around, I'd argue the NPD numbers show that. The only reason it wasn't 12 straight months of negative growth is CoD, every month except for CoD months showed drops, one managed a >30% drop.

Disappointments you could see coming a mile away:

Duke Nukem Forever - It was Daikatana 2,  that was obvious years ago.

Rage - ID's decision to switch to console shooters made it obvious they were in trouble.  Plus,  they ceased to be relevant during the Quake era.

-Heroes of Might&magic 6. words cannot express my dissapointment.
-Dungeon Siege 3...
-Dragon Age 2..
-Stronghold 3
-Duke Nukem Forever :/

[Kaiser Arian XVII]

Ah boring Skyrim! I hate killing dragons ... It's not any fun. Shutting down oblivion gates was far more interesting (and important). The best part are Thief and Mage guild missions and Legion Invasions toward Stormcloack forts

Skyrim for me as well. The music is great as usual, but its just Oblivion with a worse leveling system. I just couldn't stand how they regressed on that terrible leveling system in Oblivion and made it worse. I would've rather they used the Fallout: 3 type of leveling system. I know Dark Souls has a lot to do with it, though, because of how incredible the combat system is compared to Skyrim's slash, slash, run).

mine was Saints row 3 i baught it compleated in 2 days didnt like it so traded it in lol

I'm in the same boat...

I choose games very carefully because I just haven't had a lot of spare cash this Year...I even really enjoyed DA2 because I knew what to expect going in to it.

^Considering Dragon Age 2 is one of my favorite games of this year and one of the favorite ever as well and think it's better then Dragon Age Origins, so please explain.

Read this:

http://forums.someth...40&pagenumber=1 

Thread's full of bellends (hilarious ones mind you, even if their jabs at Bioware employees are weak) but it just shows you how much of an obnoxious ****** Hawke actually is, the poor graphics, the miserable facial animation (THE EYEBROWS, THE EYEBROWS MAN), the completely unlikeable cast, the ridiculous amount of combat, recycled maps (obviously), and even though it's all satirical, the LP actually made Bioware's writing look terrible - the jokes in the game just made me pull an absolute blank face in disgust at how bad they were.

Anyway, I liked DA2 after playing it, but for me it was when I looked back, really had a time to think about it, read peoples' views on the game here and elsewhere that I realised how much a pile of sh*t the game actually was - and that's not because I want to "jump on the bandwagon", everything people, say, KnightofPhoenix were saying just made perfect sense such as how the antagonists are all just dumbasses, the Qunari were moronic for not taking advantage of Hightown's steps to defend from Hawke (& Co.) in Lowtown, Hawke's too dumb to continue his investigation about the limbs he finds for Emeric and just leaves it three years and so on.

What tends to happen when people learn about things like that is they split in to two camps:

1. "Bioware rushed DA2 and it has flaws, but for them to be able to pull out something like that in 16 months it's great! "

2. "Bioware rushed DA2, it had flaws, and they seriously should have taken more time with it. I think it sucks."

I fall in the latter, 16 months for a sequel of a game that took ~5 years, plus trying to do so much in the sequel in such a short space of time is foolish, and DA2 deserves the stick it gets.

I was tempted to say DA2 and call it a day but for my money I at least got a playthrough out of it. Dear lord did I regret buying Marvel Capcom 3 and I scoff at the very idea that their throwing an "ultimate" edition of it.
Also gonna go with Saints Row the Third.  For a game franchise that prides itself in over the tope zany fun its ironic that it was one of the most boring games I've played this year.  I forgot all about it thats how disapointed I am in it.

Why do you regret buying Marvel vs Capcom 3?  I was thinking of getting the Ultimate Edition of it and want to know if there is something terribly wrong with it.

Its not terrible.... its just nothing special.
We waited how long for it?  And what did they improve on from 2?
........
I'm drawing a blank
Oh right graphics
well some characters are a welcome addition and the lack of clones is great but its nothing special that we didn't get from 2 already in fact when I want to play something like this I get the urge to pull out my Dreamcast and Play MvC 2.
Then there's the terribad story things after the arcade that makes me want to play it less just thinking about it.
and I haven't even mentioned the pathetic online multiplayer where there are no options you just join and HOPE that the person your fighting is somewhere near your skill level.  I stopped trying to find any enjoyment out of the multiplayer after my 3rd match everyone chose Dante, Wolverine and whoever else was overpowered and it became more of a chore.

I like I said its not bad but for a 60$ game to buy on a whim on release day?  UGH yeah at least DA2 doesn't anger me when I look at it on my game pile.

[Nameless one7]

I guess I'll wait till its a $20 bargain bin buy.
