Quote:Game of the Year Awards, ironically, aren't always about the positives. So to that end we've made up a lovely award for "Biggest Disappointment".

Wow, what a list. Umm, I would have to say AC: Revelations was particularly badly received by a lot of people, but most there are worthy of this "award".

The CURSED CRUSADE. I actually reviewed this game and omg.. i never want to play it ever again.

Bodycount was really really terrible.

It had almost no story context, bland level and enemy design, a (literal) 4 hour campaign, and no distinct multiplayer modes.

A year ago I really thought that Bodycount was going to be a truly exceptional shooter, but the game I played earlier this fall seemed like nothing more than a rough prototype for a mediocre title.

Omgosh completely agree. I was surprised from what I saw at E3

I can't believe I have to talk down about a series that I love to death... but I have to say... Assassin's Creed: Revelations. Talk about a total letdown...

First of all, the story was almost near-nonexistant in this one.
Second, The voice acting was quite mediocre this time around. Ezio's love interest, Sofia Sartor, has a horrible lack of ability to emote whenever it's actually NEEDED. Prince Suleiman's voice is so ungodly boring that I sometimes find myself nodding off to sleep.

Third, the Multiplayer, while slightly improved gameplay-wise from its Brotherhood counterpart, is utterly broken and unplayable to those who want to play stealthily, which is the CORRECT way to play. As per usual, Ubisoft actually indirectly encourages noobtubing tactics such as Rushing (Continually sprinting to kill targets and evade pursuers. Gains barely any points.) and Roofing (Running around above ground level to gain Aerial and Acrobatic kills.) by way of the new Reverse Detection Meter, which is a complete opposite to Brotherhood's Detection Meter. If you wish to play stealthily, good luck winning. As soon as your target gets notices any suspicious activity from ANYONE, they will instantly sprint away, forcing you to either drop the contract, or chase them down and sacrifice an Incognito or Silent bonus that would get you a pretty good kill. Also, defending yourself is nigh impossible, as the two best defensive abilities, Smoke Bomb and Mute, are utterly broken and unusable. I've had hundreds of pursuers walk directly through my Mutes and Bombs, and then swiftly kill me with a free Incognito bonus that they should not deserve.



Now, I'm sure people are going to disagree with me on most of these complaints, but for me, AC:R has earned a 4/10 from me, and is by far the worst game out of the series.

Easy. Dragon Age 2.

What a collossal disappointment! A downgrade from Origins in every way and ugly to boot!

---

@Bexn - Just edited your post there a little to include [spoiler] tags, so that (at least on the forums) the story isn't quite so open for everyone to see. I don't think the game is quite old enough for that yet.

---

Im actually might piss off some people on the forums by saying this, but i really loved dragon age 2. I actually loved the combat system, the dialogue system (ala mass effect) and the overall ending. The game's graphics were a step up from dragon age origins.

If i had to pick a game from that list that sucked, it would have to be The cursed crusade. On a side note, from what ive seen of revelations, i actually like how it looks. Its probably better than brotherhood, which in my opinion, sucked.

AC:R. I've complained about this enough. I don't need to say anymore.

The first AC title that has broken my love/hate relationship with the series, and moved it into 100% negative. *shakes head slowly*
