XMNR: "Maybe they were massively over hyped, maybe they failed to live up to the legacy of their developer or maybe they just weren’t all that great to begin with. Regardless, here are ten games from this past year that could have been awesome, but, for one reason or another, simply weren’t."
Final Fantasy XIV fans can now properly benchmark their PCs and check out some of what's coming to their game this summer.

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.
Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.
I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.
Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.
This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.
MAG was fun, but I expected more. I'd love to see a sequel.
I never had high hopes for Metro 2033 and in retrospect it kind of sucks compared to Fallout: New Vegas.
I agree with some of these --disagree with a couple.
Metro 2033 didn't have that much hype. No one really expected it to be that great (even though it was a very, very weak Xbox exclusive) and the fact that it wasn't that great wasn't a huge surprise.
FFXIV was a huge bomb.
MAG was underrated --it's better than people give it credit for.
I think anyone with a half working brain could've told you APB was going to suck.
I thought Metro 2033 lived up to its potential, great graphics, atmosphere, story and gunplay.
Everything was great except for a bit of dodgy AI.
It really showed off the power of the PC.

One is a shooter the other a 1st person RPG, dont compare the 2
All games cant live up to their potential if you get so hyped about it. IF you can just keep your cool then many games wotn seem overhyped or living up to their potential.
BLACK OPS nuff said.
