In honor of this special holiday where we pay tribute to the Pilgrims, Indians, and Leprechauns of yesteryear, 1UP came up with this list of ten turkeys -- games that just didn't live up to their incredible hype. These aren't necessarily bad games -- in fact, most of these are quite good. It's just that, for whatever reason, they fell short of expectations. So after you're done stuffing your fat faces full of food, chew on these!
Announced in 2020, Playground Games' open-world action RPG has seen sporadic updates and departures but still no release date.
You could say the same for any number of games that were stupidly announced during pre-production. Elder Scrolls 6 & Perfect Dark are current examples, Blade is another recent one and in the past Mass Effect Andromeda and Cyberpunk 2077 come to mind.
I don't think this game is in any trouble. For a start, Playground Games are one of the few under MS Studios that actually have a track record of delivering on time and with quality. We got a trailer last year and I'd fully expect there to be something more substantial at the next showcase in the summer.
No dramas here - just another victim of Microsoft's incompetence. They simply had to announce several games way too early because they had nothing else to talk about.
The same thing that happens to any project when you announce it far too early. Perfect Dark, Fable, The Elder Scrolls 6, Star Wars KOTOR Remake...you actually have to, I don't know, make the game?
I'm fairly confident this game will see the light of day, as Playground have released 5 Forza games of quality and on schedule. Think it was just revealed too early.
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
This should make fans and collectors very happy. PureArts & Ubisoft Announce Assassin’s Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama Assassin's Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama available for pre-order on January 25.
Interesting read.
Theres so many things wrong with this article.
shenmue2,FF8,and MGS2 roflmao
1down is a joke
hey 1down what about gaylo 2
While I agree with every game on the list (expect for Assassin's Creed which I haven't played yet) was in one form or another a let-down from what the game was hyped to be.
MGS2??? ummm....ok.....?
