Halo 2 was the most disappointing sequel I've ever played.  Because the first one was so unbelievably good.

I'm not anti-Halo.  Halo 2 was just marginal in every way.

StarFox Assault, Rogue Squadron: Rebel Strike, Tony Hawk: American Wasteland, and Perfect Dark Zero all come to mind. Oh, and the sequals to Beyond Good and Evil and Advent Rising. Why? BECAUSE THEY AREN'T BEING MADE.

yeah, for some reason I just couldn't get into the game. Sands of Time and Warrior Within were so awesome, but in that one I was just like "Boohoo prince, we all have problems"

Devil May Cry 2 wasn't nearly as good as the first. I also think Yoshi's Island DS is subpar.

For me it was the fighting. Any time I screwed up a speed kill, or worse I was forced to fight normally, the fighting was just awful.

I fail to see how Halo 2 is a controversial pick when Bungie itself is putting out press releases talking about all the things they screwed up in Halo 2.  :shock:

How are people saying Halo 2?

The first was unbalanced and repetitive. So what's Bungie do? They fix that.

For instance, (and not to pick on the person that said this) complaining about the degradation of the pistol. That makes sense, it's a damn pistol and was unbalanced to begin with. You want them to leave it broken conceptually. Find another weapon that is better and makes more sense being better.

I found the story more enjoyable and the characters were much deeper as well. 

The only thing that was bad for it was it's unfinished graphics and because it was rushed.

  • Tomb Raider - shortly after the 2nd
  • Phantasy Star - once it went online
  • Street Fighter - once it went 3D
  • Alundra - the 2nd
  • Xenosaga not in the sense that it sucked, but that it didn't come close enough to Xenogears

I personally don't find it as bad as some people would like to make it out to be. It's hard to beat the original, because it was universally loved by everyone (or so it would seem). The game is still fun, it's just a different kind of fun. Just try to enjoy it, instead of trying not to.

I tried to enjoy it. The controllers were clunky, the gameplay was rather slow , the stealth modes were rather useless and clunky, the story was just terrible, and the character design was really mediocre. I may seem like a fanboy, but that game just sucked..

No they laid the rumours that they didn't like Halo 2 to rest. They just said that obviously they will always want to improve.

Need for Speed Carbon.

Underground 2 was the ultimate tuning game. The racing wasn't much fun. Still people enjoyed the game just by tuning their cars. It was just damn fun. Then Most Wanted got rid of that but at least they put police back in. And awesome cutscenes and a decent story for a racing game. But then Carbon, pretty much got rid of the police vibe and didn't put those awesome tuning parts back in. They basically stripped the entire game. With a lame story.

At first I thought Carbon was going to be Underground 2 + Most Wanted in one game. Like they said. That's why I was so disappointed.

Are you talking about this stuff, where Bungie's technical lead says that he cannot play Halo 2's multiplayer, because it falls so far short of what it could have been?

Not only does Bungie say absolutely nothing about the quality of Halo 2 relative to Halo 1, but it doesn't mean that they hated Halo 2, just that they felt it could have been better. The article I linked to explains a lot of that.

People in System Wars really need to learn basic reading comprehension skills.

Some of us pay attention to the use of the English language.

The thread creator asked "what was the most disappointing sequel?", not "what was the worst sequel?".

That's a pretty huge difference of meaning, wouldn't you say?
