i agree i was excited for Army of Two. Im glad i never bought it, i read a lot of reviews for it and played the demo and realized it wasn't good at all, which was dissapointing. I havn't really bought a game i was dissapointed in though. I usually do my research for a game before i buy it.

N3, i heard all the reviews and did research and past it up at first.

but i liked dynasty warriors and they havent really scored well so i bought it for around 20 thinking id like it like DW.

NO, god no, ill never go against my better judgement again, that game sucked (imo).

Grand Theft Auto 4. It was getting 10/10s everywhere but when I got down to playing it, I was just disappointed. It lost the fun factor I generally expect from games, especially the GTA games.

Agreed!! GTA was just not as much fun this go around and I ended up not even finishing it and brought Saints Row which IMO was a much more entertaining game. The latest Silent Hill reviews don't look very sharp either so I doubt I will get it even though I was looking forward to it. Left 4 Dead was a big fat let down too.

It ws a while ago, but I'd have to say F.E.A.R. Not a bad game by any means, but for some reason the game just never "clicked" with me. I more finished it because I had nothing better to do in my off time (in the Army, deployed to Afghanistan at the time), but never really had any feeling about it.

 I haven't preordered a single game since I was in college, oh say 5 or 6 years ago was the latest.  There is so mych hype these days that drives up demand for cool looking games artificially. Supply chains are relatively quick to restock after a week or so- so why waste $60 just to be the absolute first to pay what may be a crappy game? I'll wait the week or two and ensure my $60 is going to a game that deserves the hype and my attention :)

Silent Hill Homecoming was amazing. If you haven't played it do so don't listen to reviews.

i disagee, i loved silent hill but 5 just wasnt too great, my main issue was that it just wasnt scary, the story was shallow and kinda a ripoff of an early silent hill, and the fighting was boring. it looked fantastic and wasnt horrible, but if it wasnt called "silent hill" i wouldnt of wasted my time on it

None for the xbox 360 but the biggest bust in video game history to me was Conker live and reloaded. So i'm paying full price for a stripped game in which all of my favorite classic modes are gone? Wow what a waste.

Far Cry 2 and GTAIV. GTAIV just wasnt all that fun and Far Cry 2 was a generic shooter with no variety in the missions.

Same here. I haven't experienced a big letdown in gaming since I bought Star Wars Rebellion in high school. There are games that annoy me with odd quirks such as long loading times, but I haven't experienced a "bust" on any 360 game.

Perfect Dark Zero failed to live up to the hype and the original N64 version, but I still think it's ok(if you don't compare to the best shooters).

No one mentioned Turok, I loved the 1st 2 Turok games on N64, but not this reinvention on 360, and I knew I wouldn't like it just from playing the demo alone.

Brothers in Arms was a major disappointment for me. Luckily I had a gift card and only spent 45 bucks on it, not the original 60. Basically it was boring and repetitive, unlike what I saw in the E3 demo.

I dont understand the whole GTA thing. I think a lot of folks didn't like IV because it was "too real." My pick would be Gears Of War....I thought it was a bust.

Not just it was too real, it took out a lot of fun things and features from past GTAs, plus most side activities sucked

Star Trek Legacy, was excited to play it after seeing screen shots and reading the reviews, thought it was going to be a great space-shooter. It turned out to be a bust though, a number of long and tedious missions with no checkpoints that meant having to repeat the whole thing over again if you happened to die, frustrating if you'd just spent half an hour battling it out only to get blind sided and have it all go to **** in 10 seconds.

Fable 2 was great, but faar too short and short sighted. Disappointed in that. Also built myself up hugely for Fallout 3, and tho great, didn't really hit the awesome status.

I would have to say the biggest bust that i have witnessed is Army of Two. It is kind of fun but nowhere near lived up to the hype. I thought it was going to be a huge success.

Grand Theft Auto4, Fable 2, and Halo 3.

GTA4 was the worst grand theft auto that I have played, and it felt like a rip off of liberty city with just better graphics, and a worse main character.

Fable 2 was horrible! The game is so stupid. All you do is kick chickens and follow a gold line. It was supposed to be a huge game but i couldn't even play it for more than an hour. BORING.

Halo 3 had no story whatsoever, and the create a map mode was hyped up so much i couldn't wait. Turns out making maps takes forever and it glitches when you use certain items. Basically i bought Halo 3 for a multiplayer that was exactly the same as Halo 2 just with better graphics.

based on reviews ever RPG to come out this year has been dissappointing. Of course the FF will manage to get a perfect 10 when I haven't enjoyed those series in a very long time.
