You've probably didn't read this:
" idon't
care if Shepard will kill him self and all his team mates at the end (i don't believe the end is worst than that),
ME3 is a masterpiece in all aspects.
"
Now it's clear ?


As a matter of fact it is. It renders almost everything you did in the previous games pointless. Don´t worry about any of the difficult choices you made in the previous 3 games, with  the status quo at the end game they don´t matter anymore.

While it's still early in the year I can't see any other big name title managing to screw up so monumentally.

I think Me3 will successfully replace Da2 in the next vydia game awards :P

It certainly won the most anticipated game of 2012 category, lots of gushing over the ( quite rightly) new fight mechanisms, total disbelieve over the ending, 100% loss of replay value of the previous installments, not much of an incentive to buy dlc's, a lot of agreements over the poor rpg aspect and rotten relationship handeling, 1000% of misguided artistic ego trips, badly handled publicity, not to mention business ethics ( mass producing entertainment that was aimed at "the minority" because we can't please them all?!?!?) ....i have never seen so many green faces in any forum, so here is mine:sick:

No, it'll be given the "Best Sequel" award.

I don't know. ME3 was awe-inspiring. If you can't understand the ending it's your bad. It's not better than ME1, but still one of the best few games ever made I've played... since Commodore 64.

Almost everyone here thought the game was great - until the end. Then only 2% out of 70K+ liked the ending as-is. Just finish the game and then we can talk.


What i've meant in my original post that it couldn't be the "Most Dissapointing Game" even if
it has the worst ending ever.

Don't get me wrong i'm sure that the ending is far for what it's should be as most say but making
ME3 most dissapointing game of the year ? Don't think so.

There's only one group of people who will honestly break down what was good and bad about ME3, and that'll be /v/ when they do the 2012 Vidya Gaem Awards. Pretty freaking sad that 4chan is capable of more genuine, intelligent and honest review and awarding of games than the official ones.

I think different awards have different scales of measurement. As of right now, Mass Effect 3 wins the most disappointing award hands down. I expected it to be the game of the generation, and it delivered an amazing experience that almost reached those impossible expectations only to blink and give one of the worst endings in this generation of games.

That being said, I could see ME3 winning the most disappointing award and Game of the Year as well. The ending disappoints, but as of right now there is nothing else that comes close to matching the rest of the experience.

So for example, Macbeth and Hamlet was the worst games ever too? I don't think so.

I think ME3 does qualify as a disappointment. Not that it's a bad game in general, it's a really good game, but disappointment doesn't have to be rational.
Numerous players were disappointed after finishing the game. The reason for this disappointment is not as important as the fact that they are disappointed.
And by the way. While I really think it is a very good game, it's definitely no masterpiece. Aside from the ending, the game has several other minor and major flaws.

I think the majority of people in the world that played ME 3 weren't disappointed with the game.

At the same time just because of ME 3's ending it doesn't really deserve GOTY either (maybe not even a nomination.)

No offense to ME 3's developers

EDIT: ME 3 was still a disappointment for a large/considerable amount of people, but I honestly think that by the end of the year there will be bigger and more wide scale disappointments.

I mean Dragon Age 2 was disappointing but then Brink and DNF came out and I really really was disappointed by them.

If not "disappointing" it should at least win the "game that should have remained in development for another year" award.

no joke.

Doubful.... The entire game was amazing minus the ending.

The meta is at a 93-94 on xbox and a 92 on PS3... having critical acclaim.

Maybe the fans... but not critics. The only one I could think is Angry Joe, but he is more a fan than a legitimate reviewer

Ninja Gaiden 3 makes more sense...

We are disappointed in the ending... thats all

But they are disappointed with the entire game

It's more likely to get nominated for game of the year everywhere than most disappointing game. There are only a handful of reviews that have dropped below a 9/10, no way does a game score a 9/10 and then is considered "disappointing." At least, I've never seen it happen

Dear God, I'm laughing so hard at the TOR staff talking about how they're implementing stuff and how great it is, while you see the Titanic crashing into the iceberg, filling up with water and sinking.

Guys, you really gotta see this.

And do NOT be fooled by the start of the "show", it's just to **** with you for the first minutes.

Indeed, L00p. They have another TORtanic 'trailer' later on, where the iceberg has the Guild Wars 2 logo on it. I laughed myself silly. The jokes in between aside, again, the awards are all well-thought out and rely on genuine votes, rather than being bought out.

I don't think so.  I get the impression that most major gaming outlets were very satisfied with the game.  I don't think fan outrage from a minority will change the general gaming community's perception.

Exactly.  I find it interesting that some people seem to forget this fact, just because a group of gamers are in an outrage.  The game is still critically accliamed.  There is no way that Mass Effect will be "most dissapointed" because a few vocal gamers were upset about 5 min. of cutscene at the end.

Just pointing out here, Wise Men, over 90% of the vocal consumer base (this includes both those who praise and dislike on the forums) were disappointed by the ending. Now considering that most marketing projections list the number of people who are vocal about a product as being 4% of those who actually speak out, with the remaining number of that not saying anything but sharing the feelings of those people.. 90% of that 4% hated the ending, meaning that only 10% of the remaining 'silent 96%' (i.e. the ones that didn't say anything) actually liked it, making THEM the 'few' in this situation. Long story short; It's not 'a few' or 'a group'. It's a painfully large majority.

Thanks for the response. I appreciate your tone and maturity. However, 90 percent of the 4 percent of the total consumer base is not the majority of the total consumer base. It is only the majority of the 4 percent.

Even if 100 percent of the 4 percent were unhappy with the ending, it would still be the minority of the total consumer base.

I could be wrong here, but I think you are confusing "majority" of the vocal group with "majority" of the total consumer base.  Just like with any product, most consumers who were happy move on.  You never hear from them because they are content.  In this case, most gamers who are happy with the ending are either too busy playing another run or have simply moved on to the next game.  I have 5 friends who were very happy with their ending.  They never posted on forums.
