    Re: Biggest Disappointments of 2010

    Music.........All, I don't really care for it and this year I have seen more and more people get famous for audio toners and beats, then ACTUAL SINGING.

    When you watch shows like Sing Off and then listen to what's hot on the radio it is a world of difference between actual singing talent and being a studio made star.

    Movies:

    Centurion - It was good, but not as great as they made it to be in the previews

    Mega Mind - Very subpar kid movie, I expected better

    The Warrior's Way - didn't live up to the hype at all

    Skyline - wow......disappointed

    For Colored Girles - wasn't a hit at all like I thought it would be, really sales wise was one of his worse in a while

    TV:

    Will have to think about that.

    Electronic Devices:

    The Droids.......way too many came out this year and most of them were blah.

    Kin - enough said

    Xbox 360 4GB slim - Not that I bought it, I bought the 250GB version, but why even come out with a 4GB version if you can't even use that thing online for majority of the games ????? That pissed my friend off when he bought it and tried to play some games online with it and it told him no, hard drive required.

    Alpha Protocal - I liked it, however it seemed like it was just rushed to get it out the door.

    Sniper - That game was such a let down.

    NBA Elite - enough said

    UFC 2010 - They did a 180 from 09 and it took them 5 months to release ONE patch, that is just pathetic.

    Community Managers for videogames - Over all I don't even know why they even have that title when they don't even interact with the community. They only interact with their friends and media people. I mean what is the point of posting your twitter and email address if you don't even respond to people ?

    Madden 11 - seemed more like Madden 10 1/4.

    Dragon Age DLC - other then Awakening, all the other ones were extremely SHORT and only lasted 40 minutes. I was so disappointed in Witch Hunt.......

          1) Really? I enjoyed the album. Obviously not OutKast, but I believe its better than OutKast's last album anyway.

          2) What were you expecting? She never really seemed to be a great talent to me.

            1. I was mostly hoping it would help push Big Boi back to a place he belonged amongst hip hop artists, but his biggest single didn't touch top chart numbers. I like Big Boi no matter the content, but I just think this specific album underperformed. Maybe Outkast just doesn't matter to people anymore?

            2. She became a bigger household name in 2009 with The Ugly Truth. She was supposed to capitalize on that rising stardom in 2010 but her newest films were mostly forgettable and didn't hit the Box Office draw she was expected to pull.

              The Ugly Truth was forgettable. Every movie she's done besides Knocked Up was forgettable.

                The Ugly Truth also pulled in $200 MM in the Box Office. She didn't touch those numbers in 2010. That's why I think she's a disappointment as she was being headlined in hopes that her 2010 films would do the same.

                      That 3D resident evil movie, at least the first 3 were somewhat watchable.

                          I'd like to add The Wolfman. I remember seeing the trailer at the end of '09 and thinking it looked really good and it turned out to be one of the worst movies that I saw in 2010.

                            I appreciate when some of the developers come here to OS and lay out some ground work to help inform members etc. What bugs me is their absence after the game is released. It's tough to read all the criticism and all, but it would be nice if they balanced it out by remaining and staying involved with constructive discussions. I think though the the politics of gaming is a large part of it.
                            Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

                                I for one was calling for Bill's head when we traded him. But I had no idea he would mail it in for 2 teams after NE. Straight disappointment, homie.
