5 sequels we could have done without

Far cry 2: so much potential wasted
Bioshock 2: The gameplay was better but the story, the main driving force behind the bioshock series, fell a bit flat.
The new DMC: What have they done to my DANTE!!

I must say though - having someone swear at me in Afrikaans was quite a novelty

LOL, that's probably the coolest feature of the game.

"Glimlag! Wys my jou tande dan skiet ek hulle vlenters." Classic.

Definitely agree with a few of those. Bioshock 2 was a good game, but didn't do anything different from the first. It was pretty much just a cash in on the first game's success. Far Cry 2 got too old too fast. Driving around for 20-30 minutes just to go kill someone or blow something up and driving all the way back to go get a new mission completely ruined the experience for me.

Disagree with some of the ones mentioned in this thread as well. Dead Rising 2 is brilliant, it is one of the only 2 games I have ever finished 3 times or more in a row, Prototype being the other. KOTOR II was just as good, I enjoyed it a LOT more than the first one even with the less than perfect ending. I also rather enjoyed F.E.A.R 2. I never played it when it first came out and finished it for the first time about two weeks ago. Really looking forward to F.E.A.R. 3.

I would add MW2 to that list as well. To me there is absolutely nothing different about MW and MW2. It's exactly the same game with just a different (attempt at a) story and levels. Black Ops might have failed as a MP game for me, but at least I really enjoyed the SP and could actually make sense of the story.

I considered MW2, but last time I put that on a negative list it incurred a lot of angry nerd wrath. Lol, plus there were others I felt were probably more deserving.

LOL, I know what you mean. My friends think I'm crazy for thinking it's not a 9/10 game.

Hot damn! Now I think you're crazy !
MW2 has/is gotta be the best CoD to date!!

Yeah, seriously. Justin Bieber is also popular and I'm sure he has provided many people with what they consider enjoyable experiences as well. Doesn't change the fact that he sucks.

His genre of music sucks, which is teen pop. He doesn't suck at what he does.

MW2 was a lot of fun to play, even though it was hugely popular and had a huge marketing campaign. You could almost equat it to pop gaming. THere is a huge demand from the casual gamer market for this sort of game. And you mentioned Rogue Warrior, it too had a pretty big marketing campaign yet it still failed, why? because it was complete rubbish. No matter how much marketing you do, a game cannot be hugely popular if its complete rubbish.

Elke koel dra jou naam!

Props to them for that - seriously

I'm with you Gir. For all the hate MW2 received (that awesome "boycott"), it was a fantastic game. My first ever foray into online MP as a matter of fact. Once I hit Prestige, at the same time the hacking/childish shit became unbearable, I had no choice but to hang up my FAL.

I beg to differ. But again, just like with MW2, that's just my opinion ...
