disapointing games

Bighoss · 2003-02-17, 12:57 PM

I just bought the game The Get Away it is kinda a mix between GTA and Metal Gear Solid.

its really disapointed me because it looked cool but its impossible ! I can't even beat the first level where u need to tail gate this car but in the end it drives away so fast that I can't see its next turn and I've tried all three !!!

post some other disapointing games just so I know what not to buy

I was tempted to buy this game.. havent yet.

It was in development for many years and they actually duplicated london

Project Earth is a bad one too, a friend of mine bought it cos it was a HomeWorld clone and he liked HomeWorld.

Anyway after about 5 missions he relized that all you needed to do was to kill the enemy Harvesters as soon as they left the mothership. after a few cycles you win the mission.
And if you let the harvesters get back tot he ship with any ore they build a bigass friget and kick your ass.

Homeworld was great but this game wasnt thought out very well, just a warning

Tribes 2 (big ol pil o crap)

Revolution (crappiest FPS ever and i never thought I would play a FPS i didnt like )

sims (ultra crap)

Britneys dance beat (ultra mega crap x2)

mario sunshine (overly colorfull crap)

Everey game made by Radical (biggest of the biggest steamy piles of crap)

I could really go on all day I have played thousands of games and only a few were worth playing

I just installed Hitman 2. I've had it for quite a while but never tried it out. Seems like a good game but for some reason I get no thrill out of offline games anymore, it's just not much fun to me.

Need real people.

lol i can't stand ai anymore .... either its inhuman or its just stupid

Bighoss · 2003-02-17, 03:38 PM

wait never mind get away is really good I just wasn't reading the directions and I figured it out !

Buy that game its really fun its like GTA but requires more strategy and thinking.

Pac Man Fever, featuring 6 Sony characters I had barely heard of besides Pac-Man and Mrs. Pac-Man. Think Mario Party 1, divided by 5, take out all minigames, put in ones that require you to catch falling coins while a monkey throws anvils at you. Take out the stars, the items, and the value of coins. Then, make 20 kinds of spaces, 10 involve playing the catch the coin game. Add annoying music, and slow-paced play, and voila! BTW Mario Sunshine is the 1337 0wnag3. Don't dis my main man Mario.

Mario Sunshine was good, but I don't like how that retarded water machine was so central to the gameplay...it was like they were just grasping for a chance to show that they knew how to make a neat water effect. They need to bring back the mushroom and fire flower type powerups, man. Those were the days.

I could never get into Diablo 2, did anyone else like it. It's really popular.

I really enjoyed Hitman2... but I'm like you... I never finished it because I wanted to play against real people...

... that and it can be frustrating as hell

diablo2 is great - kept me busy forever. i cant think of any games that i like and have played for a long time except d2. strategy games just have impossible people to beat which is no fun. and im worrying planetside wont hold my attention.. ahh sure it will.

anyway im not sure of any disappointing games in particular but ill think of some later.

btw the getaway looks too gray and dreary. i love vice city for its warmth and awesomeness.

Doobz · 2003-02-18, 02:40 AM

vice city kicks ass

Ezcactus · 2003-02-18, 09:42 AM

Vice city was ok... the problem with it was all the boring tutorial missions in the begining.

Diablo 2 kept me interested for about a month, right up until i hit lvl 35. then i realized i was killing the same lame monsters over and over.

i can think of two games that were disappointing for me:

C&C Renegade

FF8
