    Games that failed to live up to the hype

    When great expectations meet harsh reality

    Kinect? Really? (I'm asking, not being sarcastic)... I thought it was such a great hit.
    I myself have the PS Move which works awesome with Heavy Rain and a couple of other games.

    No guts, no glory, no brain, same story.

    I'm with Viper on this, I think Kinect is a great party accessory to use when you're drinking with friends and decide to add to the enjoyment. I'm pretty sure Wenz will also agree with me , getting pissed and playing Kinect just makes it even that more enjoyable.
    All it takes is ONE BAD DAY tO ReDuCe the SaNesT Man Alive To LuNaCy. That's How Far The World Is From Where I am. JUST ONE BAD DAY

    And that's the thing. It's only great for kids or for when you're goofing off with friends. There aren't really any good games on it, like we see on the other platforms. It's dominated by casual games.

    It pretty much became the PS2's EyeToy.

    ACTUALLY. To be completely fair, Dance Central is superb. It's not for everybody, sure, but it's a very impressive game.

    I was really disappointed with Spore.
    I bought the game after all the hype around it, and it seemed so cool, but then just fell flat.

    Thinking about it I'm getting angry, I so wanted that game to be amazing.

    Same here dude, the idea was there. All the elements just didn't fit together and once your past the creature stage its all downhill from there. Still haven't finished it
