Which game has disappointed you the most?
Personally I'd have to say Fable on X-box...
I mean it was great fun and all, but it was very short and the whole game was just to easy, including the final boss...

Metal Gear Solid 2 
Stupid #!"%#&#¤! cut scenes and radio conversations! I wanted a game, not a partially interactive movie.

Sorry everyone, i have to change my opening statement, Magic The Gathering on X-Box was the most disappointing game i've played.

Wind Waker.. All the reviews say it's really good, but I found the game so boring that I couldn't even finish it...

WWF Attitude. Had an incomplete feel to it (compared to Warzone), most of the features they were hyping were cut at the last minute, and the career mode was a boring piece of crap.
Taught me a thing or two about hype

Yeah ive got to say Final Fantasy: CC too. Not that it wasnt fun - but that fun only lasted 2 hours at a time, then you couldnt play it for months.
Little to bland.

Guild Wars... actually more specifically, the Rangers in GW... the rest of it is pretty good and is very nice, but the rangers are unplayable IMO... i really should roll another toon...
but then i only bought it for the times WoW isn't working... and since then i've bought other games i'd rather play...
rangers ruined my GW Experience...

Halo 2
Was expecting more from the actual story and playing as the arbiter for half the game was borring, and the ending really sucked!

WCW Mayhem- When it came out I didn't know developers swapped...it turned out to be terrible.
Clayfighter 63 1/3- Even at age of 8 I knew I just blew $100 on a pathetic fighter
Yoshi's Story-Nothing like the original, way too easy and pretty annoying to boot.
Halo 2- Hyped up way too much, was a decent shooter but that's all I'll say
Luigis Mansion- Was going to be the first game I bought...I ended up renting and beating it
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw- Way too samey, nothing changed besides from camera angles and a few other additions
Final Fantasy XI- From my own opinion turned out to be pretty dissapointing, it expected too much time and work to be fun.

Paper Mario 2 and Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga. All the reviews say it's good. Everybody I talk to say they are good. I on the other hand don't like them as much as I thought I would.

Stuntman for sure. I was hugely into Driver 1 & 2 so I paid full price for Stuntman thinking it'd be as good as the Driver games. I was really wrong.

I would have to say Kingdom hearts chain of memories it wad fun and all but the game play was bad. You had to use cards that do run out, but you can reload them but you have less.

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. I was watching this game for months, bought it on the first day, had a blast playing it. Then the bugs kicked in. It was a damn shame. It just wasn't polished enough, animations were jagged and disjointed, the stealth system was a joke, and it had some major balancing issues. It's only saving grace was it's story and ambience. And V.V  . I was really hoping that this game was going to rock. It was a huge let down.

- Need for Speed Underground 2:
It was just boring, racing through a city for ages, to find a Glowing item, then race. Repitition...
- SmackDown! Vs. Raw:
1 Hardcore Match Area? Linear Career mode? Pfft.

Man I really am enjoying SmackDown! Vs. Raw, probably because its my first wrestling game since PS1..
What better ones are there besides Wrestlemania 21 and Days of Reckning?

i loved this game, the only issue i had with it was the source engine... i got it AFTER i'd already played HL2 and compared to how Valve used it, i agree, it was sh!te... but it was still one of the better games i've played...
but then my style wasn't one of stealth anyway, so i guess maybe i missed that bug/mis-management...
it's been a while since i played it, so i don't remember the names of the races but i was one of the looney ones...

Smackdown shut your mouth IMO is the best on ps2 with longer career and huge roster compared to the current games.
S V R 2006 better be good.

Karl, I recommend AKI games nothing can top their gameplay although outdated you can still update the entire roster to your liking.
Any new wrestling games that are good? I would say DOR but you arn't allowing me to include that so try Def Jam Vendetta as it runs off the AKI engine which is good.
Anyways back on topic and I'll add Yoshi's Touch n Go. It wasn't really a bad game, just no lastability and besides from trying to beat your high score nothing worth doing.

I picked up Days of Reckning last week actually. Its graphics are better than SmackDown! Vs. Raw but the gameplay isnt as good.
I actually enjoyed SmackDown! Vs. Raw's career mode - but how annoying is it at the end when you loose your hard work, Except for the things you bought! I really wanted to play on with the belt strapped to my Undertaker.
Def Jam looks pretty cool - but I want some legit WWE action

Yeah I suppose it's a matter of opinion. BTW Karl what type of wrestling you into Fast Paced or Slow? From what I can tell it seems to be fast.

The AKI is a bit slower but what it lacks in speed it makes up in overall smoothness which is one thing Smackdown lacks.
