Top 5 worst games on 360 this far:

1. Bomberman: Act Zero Konami 34.9%
2. Hour of Victory Midway 36.4%
3. Pimp My Ride Activision 38.9%
4. Vampire Rain Microsoft Game Studios 40.6%
5. New Rally-X Bandai Namco Games 43.1%

Two worlds rests on an average of 52.0%
So it`s not the worst technically. ;)

"AAA bugs that require restarting your 360 also abound, the perfect frosting to a cake made of garbage and offal." I wanted to get the game but this makes me reconsider the decision.

If I made a game soo full of bugs I might as well have had fun with it, I would have loosely based the story on Daemons making the world look "evil"(excusing the bad graphics), full of satanic portals that freezes time(technical issues), poisoning the voices and words of men (excusing the bad voice acting).

It sound rediculous, though I just had to. :)

Gothic 3 was also like this, filled with bugs but still a great game.

The thing that I don't understand is how they say graphics are for PS2 launch.

I bought Gothic 3 almost a year ago because of some sale, but it is still sitting there unopened. It's good to know that some people enjoyed the game, it might give me the boost I need to try it out.

7.3 - no...

this is not all the 360 can come out with, but i do agree with you that it is garbage.

remember it is also coming to the ps3, now would i say is this all the ps3 can do, no, cos you would point at oblivion...which also happens to be on the 360.

if a game is crap though, its crap !

8 - It is a bandwagon thing

I like the game and it plays fine for me. No crashes, some occasional loading screens but nothing longer than 5 sec. The graphics are good. What the heck was he playing it on, because it looks good on my 42" lcd. And most of all it is fun once you learn all that you can do with the character. And since when was the dialog in Oblivion that great. They all sound cheesy. Gimme a break

no it is not. This is a truly bad and horrible game. The single player was incredibly bad, and the multiplayer in unplayable. I love my 360 and I think it is the best console, but i am not going to lie and say this game is even worth 10 dollars.

10.1 - Here's what I would like you to do...

Find 5 people that said 'Two Worlds' is a 'AAA' game....
then post the quote...
because I'm pretty damn sure nobody said this is a 'AAA'...

Where we're you when Lair got a 4.5 on Gamespot and IGN?......

12 - Rented it...then bought it...played it tonight...loving it.

Yeah, its mindless Diablo-like level grinding, but I was tired and not in the mood for the intensity of Bioshock.

So I pop in Two Worlds, and I'm only a few hours in, but I'm having fun - no crashes, no slow frame rates - load times, yes. I can kill some enemies easily now - the rest I just run from.

The quests are interesting enough. Heck, I'm entertained. Yes, it could and should have had more polish, and I'll expect it if there is a sequel.

I guess I'm just a sucker for a huge open world to explore.

14 - Depends if you're a serious or casual gamer doesn't it ?

Despite some tragic reviews, I can't wait to get this on Sept 7. With a patch or two I'm sure the more frustrating issues will be resolved. Oblivion had freezing/loading problems at first that required fixing.

Problem today is that there are too many casual gamers that feed on the pretty faced, linear, no-brainer quick fix of the fps.. run shoot, run shoot...collect ammo.. run shoot, run shoot.... & when they come across an RPG the gameplay is too involved for them, they loose concentration easily then think it's crap.

One often spends up to 10 hours before getting into games like TW's & then there's another 50-150 of great gameplay. By contrast, games like BioShock/Halo/Haze etc are instantly playable but it's GAME OVER in the time it takes just to get into your average RPG.

I suspect that this is a great game for the serious gamer or a dreadful one for the casual, hence the balance of negative comments.

Looks like the Xbox 360 must be hard to program for now.
