All the excuses for people being disappointed with MW2 SP sound like it was the buyers fault lol...I guess thats what happens when you don't do your research, there were a TON of reviews upon release basically explaining all the dynamics of the game and how the story was going to play out , I agree with people complaining about the multiplayer though. But the SP of MW2 was amazing, 4-player campaign would have ruined it,long time COD fans would agree.

I was disappointed with RE5 all across the board...I payed $70 for that game, the controls are to stiff for an action, why can't you move while aiming ? once you beat the game it was pretty boring, they should have made the online like L4D2 : campaign multiplayer aspect...the graphics saved the game from being a total letdown of the series.

Mines would be Left 4 dead 2 idk why the game just really doesn't appeal to me i thought the first one was better the 2nd seemed like the same exact thing

DavidRswii

Thats because it was the same exact thing.

For me it would be RE5. Please Capcom, put some survival horror back in my survival horror games....

ODST was the biggest letdown of 2009 for me. It just didn't feel like a Halo game, for whatever reason. The only thing I even use now is the multi-player disc.

Research can back fire. Books and sources are all great, but they can not measure up to experience, no matter what. Research can not prevent failure.

No, they created a terrible game that is horribly boring to play. They killed my dream.

You didn't know RE5 didn't let you move while shooting? Didn't you play RE4? RE4 was the same. Didn't you try the RE5 demo that was available for free before the game launched?

Left 4 Dead 2. and I really can't explain why. It's more of the same, with new guns/zombies/setting. but I played waaaaay more L4D than the sequel. I think it's probably because it came out on the heels of MW2, which (until the glitches popped up) was one of the most polished shooters I've ever played.

Runner up is ODST, but I wasn't overly excited for it. so the BAM of the disapointment was less. although L4D2 was a much better game than ODST.

To tell the truth I was not expecting them to use the same outdated controls on a next-gen system, I was certain a game released in 2009 would let you move while shooting...

When I heard Section 8 was being made and I saw the cover, I knew it was an epic fail, Halo rip-off, etc. And thats just seeing the cover, when I downloaded the Demo and played it, what a Waste Of Money.

research usually includes playing the demo....

Resident Evil 5 could have been sooo much better but, when they introduced co-op it was doomed from the start.

Oh, I did not factor that in. Opps. I assumed that the demo was the obvious thing everyone played before buying a game.

Unless the demo sucks.. I thought the demo for Tales of Vesperia was very meh but the full game blew me away. In the end I just trust my gut and my gut knows well.

Gears of War 2. Everyone was a jerk. I just wanted a Horde achievement, but even when I was owning all the rounds myself and practically giving them exp from surviving, they quit the game. I wanted the Snowblind Horde achievement, and not getting it ruined the game for me.

Eternal-Entity
LOL, I experienced that too, when everybody trying to get their achievements and quit every map that they got it already. That was bad, but I still love Gears of War 2, the game is epic for me. I can play with you on Horde if you want.

Good for you. To think of it, Fallout 3 is the only game that I regret buying.
