Gears of War 2, Far Cry 2, GTA IV (somewhat), and Fable II (somewhat).

Assasins Creed. I had such high hopes and bought it day one.. I ended up trading it in out of sheer boredom. Its sooo repetitive.

Research, reviews, word of mouth, gameplay videos etc....all prevent this feeling "disappointment".

but FAR CRY 2 was a real downer.

I read reviews, watch the gameplay videos, ect, but sometimes your still end up with a dissapointing game.

Look at his profile pic? do you still think he never watches reviews? ohh yes I love ur profile pic :) and for me its gotta be Cod WaW i was really expecting more

GRAW. Loved the PC game, and I heard that the 360 version was different and also good. Well, it was different, I'll give it that.

Without a doubt GTAIV. It was hyped to death, all the vids looked good, all the reviews rained in 10's... I played it, thought it was cool. 4 hours later I was bored. It has to be the most boring game ever that has recieved such high ratings. It really taught me a lesson. Perfect on paper doesn't necessarily equal fun. It was still a reasonably fun game, but the hype killed all that. Theoretically, GTAIV deserved the 10, Crackdown the 7.8. But when you take a look at how much fun you have with the game in reality, those scores should be exchanged. I was also slightly disappointed by Prototype. Basically because the developers hyped it up. I even remembered some guy saying they went out and created such a deep story, other games wouldn't even dare to dream off. Well, that was a little bit overkill. The story was kind of lame. It wasn't bad, but no way that it could be seen as a selling point for the game. Taught me another good lesson; don't trust developers. Really though, nowadays I rarely make bad choices. Last I remember was GTAIV (I still enjoyed Prototype a whole lot) and before that I can't even remember. I think I'm at the point now where I won't make another bad choice ever again.

Conflict Denied Ops. Most games in this series have been pretty good, superb Co-Op, & the Conflict Global Terror game was my favorite PS2 game. However, Denied Ops failed to even be a decent game, moving away from everything that made Global Terror such an awesome game.

GRAW & GRAW 2 has some of the best Tactical Co-Op & Multiplayer game play available on the 360. It's single player is nothing to talk about, I'll give you that, but it shines bright through multiplayer.

You were disappointed? Then you much not know much about the strategy genre, as it's almost a guarantee every console game will be mediocre at best. If you are into these type games, you gotta own a PC.

I disagree. SupCom recieved poor reviews for X360, but I liked it. C&C3 also wasn't mediocre. All these installments are better on PC, obviously, but not necessarily mediocre on consoles. I think the main reason to be disappointed with Halo Wars is that the game had no gameplay going for it. It was way too casual.

The single player is great in the 1st one IMO.

This has never happened to me. I have never been disappointed by a game I researched first.

Same, unless you count playing my friend's copy of Call of Duty 4. Not disappointing though, since I had incredibly low expectations in the first place.

I don't think I've ever payed full retail and been let down since I pay full retail so rarely. Like someone else said, forums, reviews, word of mouth, rentals all prevent that. The two game that I played that let me down would be:

GTA 4 I was really into trying the multiplayer that everyone hyped. Total garbage

Bioshock Played it about 3 months after release with all of the hype going on. Thought it was absolutely mediocre.

Nicest surprise: Lost Planet and Test Drive Unlimited

Too Human easily. I had such high hopes for this game, bought all the hype, waited for it, got the pre-order, was the first person at the Game Crazy on it's release date... and starred slack jawed in dissapointment about 40 minutes in the game.

I rarely buy disappointing games, but I guess Street Fighter IV disappointed me (I was puzzled what all the fuss was about - if I had played all the other games in the series it would probably be better, but as a newcomer it was just ....bland)

Other games include every NFS game released as of yet on the platform (bought Carbon and ProStreet on sale, but was let down by the poor coding/framerate, which is a no-no in any racing game imo), Dead or Alive 4 (same reason as SF IV)

Some people mentioned Mass Effect, Bioshock and Oblivion, which happens to be some of my all-time favourites on any platform, so each to their own I guess :)

I haven't really bought a game on the 360 that I've regretted, but if I had to pick one I'd say Portal: Still Alive. The new levels don't really offer anything that groundbreaking or even interesting or fun. The turret bowling was kinda cool, though.

Need for Speed: Carbon

Bought it blind as a cheap race game to kill some time with, but it sucked big time. I heard good reviews from the Need for Speed series, but should've done more research first.

Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 because, sadly, it didn't run at 60 fps like the first one on original Xbox

NFS Underground was pretty disastrous for me. Most recently was ODST way over hyped. I can already hear the fanboys crying about it but that's my opinion.

This is a tough one, I pretty much love any game I own... TBH I suppose the most disappointing buy was Condemned 2... I loved the first one and the second showed promise, but it just... Felt like it tried too hard to be scary. Sorry C2, but you kinda suck.

Was never really dissapointed with a game as I make sure I know what I'm getting before I get the game. With that said I was probably most dissapointed with Halo 3 campaign. I though the first few levels were truely magnificant but I felt that towards the end the developers got lazy and the quality of the final levels were sub par. Overall I did love the game, except for that.
