Abeg, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West was good-o. More like poor marketing, the same thing that killed Beyond Good & Evil. Those two games were one of my best bargain bin finds. Man, I remember being hyped for Too Human and abandoning it on my 360.

The Witcher 3, Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War, Sleeping Dogs, Batman (any of the Arkham series)...

Shemue was a hit if everyone had it maybe it didn't sell as well as they expected but it was a pretty neat game with great graphics imagine being able to buy coca cola from a vending machine and use the phone etc You could even catch the bus and even get job where you could earn money it was games like this that gave the plot for GTA 3 to build on. GTA IV in my opinion was a success because of the Russian bit everyone has always dreamed of playing a foreign character in a GTA series and it was a step up from one that couldn't speak like someone said it depends on the gamer. I liked the fact that you had a phone and you could actually do activities at your leisure plus the radio stations particularly the chat ones were so funny.

its all about improvement and GTA V should have allowed us to buy and sell property to earn money and not just carry all the fun online imagine online as soon as you enter they just kill you lol no stopping no waiting everyone is looking for money

Thegamingorca, when will you create this type of thread?

Fallout 4 Terrible

Shenmue will live forever with me, I still have it in my garage. What a game! Takes me back to when I was in uni and the fact that it can still compare with games today says it all. Sad it never sold as it should have.

#1: Destiny



"Bungie are doing it again" they said.

"It's the next Halo", they said.

Little did all the press outlets and hands-on impressions know, the code and set of missions available before

launch and during the beta was... the exact same we'd get for $60. Over time it would be revealed that Bungie's higher-ups gutted everything about the game other than its combat mere months before launch, resulting in something that played exquisitely (this was Bungie, after all), but whose depth was entirely surface level.


Microtransactions and DLC story segments followed, as did the news that the game itself cost a ludicrous 500 million dollars to develop. Bungie touted a '10 year plan' for the franchise too, yet that only succeeded in peeing off the vast majority of consumers before Destiny had left the starting gate.


Destiny remains one of the biggest missed opportunities in gaming, and although its player base have an average of 500 hours per person (yes, really), this was 'the next Halo' like the original Kinect was the next step in gameplay interaction.

Dude, clarify Destiny or Destiny 2? I am a clan member and know other players who have religiously followed the game franchise avidly for years. Destiny 2 was a dud in some respects however both games are still a commercial success for Bungie despite the mixed reception. Micro transactions with the Eververse malarky did not start until Destiny 2. Other issues mentioned such as the XP throttling scandal, multiple repeat same exotics rewards, lack of storyline and weapon reskins did not start until Destiny 2.

#7: KillZone



How to kill a franchise in the eyes of the public with just two words? Brand it the "Halo killer".
In reality, Guerrilla Games' brown n' grey shooter had about as much chance taking down the Halo of the early 2000s as a mouse's fart would knock Superman off course


It wasn't that gameplay was fundamentally broken or anything (aside from making you switch to grenades, anyway - something Halo had made a one-button thing), but everything about Killzone came with this weirdly glum, morose feel that actively discouraged you progressing any further.


Even the various ranks of the almost-iconic Helghast blurred into one after a few minutes, and when gameplay never extended out of the barest refinements on 'point at enemy, shoot enemy, reload, repeat' over four instalments, it was time to throw in the towel.


Thankfully, although it would take them over a decade to realise, Sony finally freed Guerrilla from putting out aggressively average FPS campaigns, letting them move onto Horizon Zero Dawn with much better results.

Go on, name one thing you like(d) about Killzone. I'll wait.

seems u never play killzone, No shooter feels more like real shooter than killzone2 and black

#5: Grand Theft Auto IV



Controversial, yes, as GTA IV is by no means a bad game - it's just a bad Grand Theft Auto game.


And when we're talking about titles that completely failed at living up to their respective hype or those that attempted a new direction and failed, Rockstar's pivot away from the characterful likes of Vice City and San Andreas into this maudlin, washed out, 'serious' tonality has been seen as the outlier ever since, especially when looking at the franchise as a whole.


When you consider that Rockstar were clearly having their 'rebellious phase' throughout the original trilogy and its experimental mission designs (Love Machine weaponry and Area 69 stealth sections, anyone?), they designed GTA IV through marketing, story and character to be a new direction for GTA as a franchise, leaving the 'childish' stuff to Saints Row.


As time has shown, that approach didn't connect, leaving the company to go back to the drawing board and design GTA V as one big apology to everything they attempted five years prior, restoring the 'wackiness' through both Michael's family and Trevor's... well, everything.


To that end, why do you think Trevor so adversely and brutally stomped the life out of GTA IV's Johnny Klebitz?

That's not true bro. Your analysis can at best be described as faulty. GTA IV is way better than GTA V. BTW, GTA IV is one of the best games rockstar have produced.

Wasn't worth the hype

CarlyX8:

No bro

I knew No Man's Sky had to make it.

But Shenmue... I wouldn't quite have it on this list. I guess you mean it failed financially though. It sold a shit-ton of copies, but the budget was too ambitious to recoup. So it was technically a very successful title, but it couldn't break even.

I understand why you might think Destiny  was a successful video game, Afterall Destiny 2 is the second best-selling game of 2017 , and it got largely positive reviews (overhyped reviews to be precise, probably paid reviews). The PC version was also considered a fantastic port, On paper, everything seemed perfect, but then reality hit: something is obviously wrong with the game. You dont believe huh? this link shows how financial analysts and gaming experts admitted  that  the game is struggling.


https://www.pcgamer.com/destiny-2-is-not-in-a-good-place-says-analyst-in-wake-of-microtransaction-concerns/


But that obviously isn't all. It's surprising how alot of so called "loyal" fans could have quickly turned their backs on the  game that was so popular just few months ago but(check their bungie's online community to see the utter disgust of users towards the game). I think I have an explanation though, the game has been criminally overhyped right from onset, it's good game, but it was overhyped.
