Yeah, Resident Evil, maybe Silent Hill too even if Shattered Memories was pretty good.

If you'd asked this at the end of the year I'd say Thief. When I read the interviews with the developers it becomes all too apparent that they really have no idea about what Thief is and what people like about it. What's worse is that they don't even try to mask the fact that they're watering it down. They said they added explosions because they were showing the game in the USA. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't make this on a smaller budget. When was Thief ever about the visuals?

Resident Evil is probably the most prominent series that was destroyed. The one that bothers me the most though is Ninja Gaiden.

Call of Duty both rose to greatness and fell to blandness this gen.

Resident Evil and Duke Nukem are the other obvious answers.

Halo went downhill a bit with Halo 4.

Kingdom under Fire, Heroes and Crusaders were amazing RTS's on Xbox with there blend of hack and slash. What did we get this gen? Circle of Doom some shitty action RPG.

Resident Evil for sure. Go from arguably the best entry in the series (RE4) to the two WORST entries in the entire series (5 and 6).

Like, WTF?

1. NBA Live. It got so bad that they hade to take a 3 year hiatus. Ouch

 

2. Def Jam.  Vendetta was cool, but not astounding. Fight for New York was really fun and the customization was addictive. Then comes Def Jam:Icon.....

THAT GAME WAS HORRIBLE!!!!

 

3. NFL 2K. There was no installment for this entire generation because of that stunt pulled by EA and the NFL going along with it. I've never seen anything like that before. And people STILL wonder why EA is the worse publisher in the entire industry???

HA!

Was this sarcasm? Resident Evil 5 was amazing (even though it controlled a bit slow).

Resident Evil 6 is hands down the WORSE in the entire series.
