Bordersdown Disappointment of the Year - Final Vote 2012

[Neon Ignition]

Same as the GOTY thread, this poll will decide what is the overall most disappointing games related release of last year.

Which was yours?

Street Fighter X Tekken.

One of the worst, most shallow fighting games I've ever played.

Most people I know seem to adore Assassin's Creed 3!

I want to say Resident Evil 6 because I see a series becoming less and less of a survival horror series, less and less resembling the Resident Evil that I love, and becoming a series with a serious lack of identity. But truth be told, I did enjoy significant portions of my playthrough of the game. The Vita on the other hand...

Mass Effect 3 is a weird one. I loved everything up until the final 10 minutes. The final 10 minutes are enough so that I am unlikely to play another Mass Effect game in the future.

Personally I didnt mind SFxT, was better than I expected it to be. ME3 was fine also, though not upto 2's standards. Vita is great, its more the lineup thats the issue and I was fine with AC3 so Resi6 won for me with its meh design

I probably would've voted for AC3 had I played it - knew it wouldn't appeal to me though so passed. I like my Vita and enjoyed ME3, but a quick spat of RE6 has not given me the greatest first impressions.

The Vita is fantastic if you're prepared to import games for it. Sony themselves and Apple are the only problems with that console.

RE6 is the first Resi game I have not finished. Soulless garbage.

Exactly that. It's a bit sad that even here there's a lot who aren't.

[Guts]

AC3 is a mess of a game and easily the most over-rated title of the year. It's an example of patch-work game of trying to jam too much poor/mediocre elements in a game and forgetting what it's in the end supposed to be about. People moaned about the ending of Mass Effect 3, but compared to the anti-climax of AC3's ending it's award-worthy stuff.

Sorry to take this O/T, but what are these great import games?

[nakamura]

RESIDENT EVIL 6!

I'm curious too.

Persona 4 Golden, Sumioni, EDF 2017, DJ Max Technika Tune, Hatsune Miku (right up your street these two! ), Dokuro... If I could actually read enough J to get by, I'd be on Time Travellers and Tales of Innocence R too.

[Colin]

Ummm, yeah. I was hoping you were going to write a list that changed my mind, EDF aside, that'll be a no though!

I knew that was coming! Sorry, statement earlier may have been a little too liberally applied. There's definitely an audience for some of them here though, and it's a shame that despite that the overwhelming message you read about the Vita is that it has no games.
