5 Highly Anticipated Games That Were Totally Lame

vgPWN: "These games were meant for greatness but failed miserably."

scottypops2888d ago

Just because you don't like a game, doesn't mean it's a flop, or bad. For instance, I hate call of duty. The majority of gamers do. However, I can't deny that it dominates the fps market. Ghosts sold 19 million copies. That's a successful game.

spicelicka2888d ago

But you can also say that just because a game sold 19 million copies doesn't mean it's great. Commercial success doesn't equal critical success. Ghosts rode off the success of the Cod franchise and that is why it did well financially, but that doesn't mean it was a good game. As far as i read, the author called the games "lame", not "flop".

Who are those majority of gamers you so speak of?

WellyUK2887d ago

the vocal minority hate cod most people buy it because they know EXACTLY what they are buying and they know the servers WILL work. Makes a massive difference when you know what your buying is going to work on day one.

CoD isn't the best game but at least it's bloody good at supporting those millions of players from day one.

Swap Batman Arkham Origins with Destiny or at least Evolve.

barb_wire2888d ago

Batman: Arkham Origins was actually a pretty good game, IMO I don't think it belongs on that list. - shame WB won't be releasing it with the 'Arkham' remasters.

luckytrouble2888d ago

Better than Arkham Knight, really. It seems to be the forgotten Batman game though since it isn't technically part of the Arkham trilogy.

AlokTheDemon2888d ago

I played RE6 co-op part with my friend , it was fun minus qte.

Celeras2888d ago

I never understood Lightning Returns. The original 13 was relatively mediocre, but they did a decent job fixing the majority of the complaints with 13-2. Then they throw it all out the window with the third game? Total misfire.

The best Batman Arkham game still isn’t on PS5, and that’s a problem

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League is almost here, but I can't revisit the best Arkhamverse game on PS5 without sacrificing quality.

Not a fan of Orgins. Blame it on the absence of Conroy & Hamill. Blame it on the lack of atmosphere compared to Asylm. Hell blame it the devs thst dicked over Wii U owners like me that purchased the game only for support be dropped as a thank you to me. It's better than Knight but that's not saying much. I don't care for that entry either.

Rebel_Scum104d ago

tbh buying a game like that for WiiU should’ve been an obvious non-purchase when it existed on better hardware.

Cacabunga104d ago

Origins is amazing..
my favorite Batman is Batman and Robin on mega drive.. an HD REMASTER of that would still look glorious

ZeekQuattro104d ago

I got it launch. Kinda hard to go back. I'm supposed to know they were going to drop support months after the fact. 🤣

Exvalos104d ago

You sound like a salty fanboy, that it didn't come to your precious plastic of choice. It's not the developers fault Nintendo continues making underpowered hardware. It's our fault because we keep buying it. Yes I say (we) I'm part of the problem as well.

ZeekQuattro104d ago

I have a PS3 and a Wii U. How was I a salty fanboy? I bought the game on the system I wanted it for.

Rebel_Scum104d ago

Nah my comment has nothing to do with whether you’d know or not that they’d drop support.

Buying any AAA game of that era for a WiiU you should’ve known you’d be sacrificing graphics and load times.

LucasRuinedChildhood104d ago

It's solid but Origins is definitely not the best Arkham game.

LoveSpuds104d ago

Smacks of hyperbole to me, talk about clutching at straws to create some drama around PS5!!

generic-user-name103d ago

Titles like these are designed to get you to come in, go to their comment section and tell them how they're so wrong so they can boost their numbers.

Phoenix76104d ago

Even though its not the best arkham game in the series, its still an enjoyable game in its own right. What it do really well at though, was the crime investigations scenes. Which imo, were the best of the franchise.

goldwyncq104d ago

I don’t know about best game but it definitely has the best story and boss fights.

boing1104d ago

Never played it and recently I've finally tried it via cloud on psn. It's not the best for sure, but it ain't bad either.

Batman: Arkham Origins - Open World Busy Work that Doesn't Hold Up 10 Years Later

Batman: Arkham Origins launched 10 years ago today, and sadly doesn't stand the test of time as well as its predecessors.

Petebloodyonion185d ago

I fail to grasp why this title is worse compared to Arkham City (according to the article) as the author didn't provide any argument to explain why aside from that it felt the bigger map compared to Arkham Asylum made the experience less tight.
More importantly, the author seems like he never played Arkham City since he described the game as linear (alongside Asylum).

Yeah I figured it would be ordered like this. For me Leons best game was his debut. RE2.
