HHG would have an article like this. His site NEEDS to be banned. Its all freaking falmebait, tired of his sh!t. Never posts news, terribly written articles, his titles are all flamebait etc... Nobody wants him press agree.

On topic: nice, a beta of an application that charges you nothing and is not forced on the PS3 consumer is the biggest flop this generation. LOL we've heard it time and time again. Lair. Haze. Too Human. They're all flops. just move on damn it. Nobody gives 2 sh!ts!

While I don't agree with that list because it's too soon to say for sure since we're almost at the half-way mark. (1 year more) Although I still love Lair beyond all doubt and would rather sell MGS4 before Lair. And I would bear Hideo Kojima's babies too, if he didn't have some already.

I think you're a flop hiphopgamershow. I mean all you write about is stuff to jerk a reaction and get you attention. I must say your site has an impressive rank, but how else would it have if you didn't have such controversial topics.

home and socom are far from flops
Home isnt even a game so like..how can it flop?
Socom is a pretty damn solid shooter despite a few bugs
the rest of the list was right though

Lair, Too Human, and Haze I'll grant you. But SOCOM and Home? Not on this planet. Not while ShadowRun, Two Worlds, Infinite Undiscovery (what's that even mean?) exist.

SOCOM launched with issues, yeah. So, Gears of War 2, I guess, was issue free at all times, right?

"nothing more than a mediocre shooter"

It's a better shooter than Bioshock imo. Although I love Bioshock (for everything else), shooting and controls placement sucked big time. Until the end, I kept changing weapons when I wanted to shoot.

If they just added more variety to the dialogues Haze would be a very nice game.

Lair, Haze and Too Human fair enough, but Home and SOCOM are fine. SOCOM launched with a crap load of bugs and received alot of crap for it, however, the gameplay was fine. As soon as the game was patched, it runs great, definately at least an 8 on metacritic IMO.

And Home isn't a game, it's a freaking place where you can hang out "socially", play some games, talk to people ect. It delivers all of this, why are people concidering it a flop? Plus it's still a beta!

Where are all the 360 RPGs?

I'm not surprised that it got approved, people know how to approve article that are news-worthiness material before fanboyism. I think HHG is worthy of a read, that's why I approved it. Watch this place go to hell now because it truly shows who the fanboys here really are. Hence the word "bait".

I hate flamebait articles as much as anyone else, but what I hate more than flamebait articles are fanboys who can't understand to just let it go and let people have their opinions in peace. They always gotta be saying something contrary so they can satisfy their "fighting the good fight" console war mentality. Seriously PS3 Fanboys, let it go. I hate the fact that Lair's on that list, but whatever. Life goes on. Sites only make flamebait articles because they know they can get a rise out of PS3 Fanboys on N4G.

So stop whining and prove that you won't respond to flamebait and the flamebait articles will go away. Simple right? Don't click on the link, don't even acknowledge it. Just go somewhere else. It's not that hard.

Home has well over 5 million users.

as of early jan. home had more than 3.4 million downloads less than 30 days after launch

as of early jan. home had made over 1 million dollars less than 30 days after launch.

time to shut this down. what? you think its all fun and games and people wont take it serious? you must of forgot how it goes down at the arcades in coney islandd and barcode in manhattan. hardcore gamers been doing this for decades and nobody likes a loud mouth thaat just talks sh!t. you mix talkin sh!t with 2 cultures. i see that nobody from def jam gave you a fat lip cause you act like you just heard it and it wasnt you that started rumors . thats why you dont hear hhg talkin about up and comming rappers cause he know they would catch him out there for poppin sh!t. but with the games? talkin out your a$$ every sunday because you butted into a conversation or overheard some weak stuff and then using it to spark up something for you to later on be like its just a opinion and i didnt mean it that way, should get you clapped. all bullsh!t bias gaming media must die and in the both world you think you live in but only just a stoop gossiper spectator dont need you. i fight with the fans becuase its fun and they all know im joking but i aint trying to get paid off of it. shut this site down, its got to go.

Go to the Home forums on the EU playstation forums or the US playstation forums and you will see that there are loads of people that really love that service.

Can't say i love it too, but i do think it is a good service - not half of what it could be but it is still good and judging from the amount of people that are always on the service - it is a far from a flop.

I wonder how HHG himself will respond to one of his own writers, he is always gushing about Home on his show.

I agree with just about everything else on the list, I'm still kind of on the fence about Home. It is an amazing and ambitious project and once they add more I think it will be great. But for now it's still too empty IMO.

I thought Lair was a lot of fun and once I got used to the control it was a blast. Even after the patch came out I stuck with the Sixaxis.

I don't think a lot of people played Lair I think they just trash it because its the general consensus that it wasn't good.

Haze totally blew. What a mess. Could have been amazing.

Never played Too Human so I can't really comment.

PS Home is a flop?? And then why everytime the spaces are full?? Everytime i go to Home,every room is full with people.. i don't think this can be called as a flop. The home is good and getting better every day.
And yeah only one x360 game...?

I hate these xbot articles...

Yes i did play haze, i got to the level where you had to escort the large missile across the bridge and after that i turned it off, wiped it off my hard drive and traded it in at blockbusters for rachet and clank
Dude all of the enemies were cloned, the graphics were god awful and the vehicle parts were just terrible from the handling to the actual look, one thing i found ok was the sniper rifle but apart from that, for me it was as bad a blacksite, and i even finished that game

Lair and Too Human. Biggest flops this gen IMO

Whoops forgot about HAZE!

Maybe since Haze game flopped so hard I couldn't even remember it, it should win.

hes trying to ride the fence like the other pathetic websites out there. this is probably the 3rd time ive seen his site get so retarded after he gets heat from the 360 side of town. it just opens up your eyes and makes notice that as soon as he gets some kind of sponsorship he would sell out faster than coronas at a peurto rican day parade. hes whack, i got tired of him sounding stupid.
