    Post Most Disappointing Games

    What games were you the most disappointed in, those that might have gotten alot of hype, but just plain stunk in the end. Of recent games the one that comes to mind is Ultima IX: Ascension, a sequel to one of the best series of games ever made. The horrible performance, memory leaks, and changing of the whloe style of the game, which made it so popluar in the first place, killed the game. It was a perfect example of a developer rushing an unfinished game, that might have otherwise succeeded, to the market because of dead lines.

    Ultima Ascension...mmmhhh...u r talkin` about this multicoloured nightmare,which cannot be the sequel of one of the most fascinating fantasy-series ever?
    U r right.
    Another alltime classic in my classic-sucks-collection is System Shock2.I`ve wait for this game for years and what do I get? A piece of S**t!Spawning enemys.A sluggish performance (For NO eyecandy).Nothing in direct comparison to the predecessor, which got atmosphere and all I need for beeing real IN a game.
    And the bio-end-sequence is only for the garbage-can. Yep, I`m really p***ed off!
    And u r right about the deadline and unfinished games.

    I also remember being disapointed in Unreal. Yes, not the single player, but i remember loading it up to play some deathmatch and the netcode sucked. It was also a long wait to get that fixed.

    Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun. Wouldn't even load on my system.
    Hopefully C&C Red Alert 2 will be better.
