Batman Arkham Knight
FIFA 16

Just off the top of my head.

Evolve. I loved Left for Dead, so I had high expectations for Evolve. I didn't even buy it after playing the alpha and beta versions. I tried again on the free weekend and still could not get into it.

FIFA 16, because they still only cater to the Ultimate Team fans and the offline Manager Mode guys are left out in the cold, as usual.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

Damn, I'm so shocked to see Batman and Fallout 4 pop up on this list so many times already!

I'd have to put my 2 annual sports games on this list of disappointment...Fifa 16 and NBA2k16...Fifa even tho it plays great on the pitch it's a disaster as far as stat tracking in manager mode. NBA2K16 is a good game, I respect the hell out of the developement team for their communication with their fans. But...as much content that is in the game, the control scheme for me personally is just messy and frustrating when trying to pull of plays. I've barely played 2k this year and I usually play it for hours on end.

Aqua I agree with you about Fallout but couldn't disagree more about Batman. Go and read the thread for the Arkham Knight game on here...it's littered with complaints ranging from a hugely expensive season, the content of the DLC, the tanks and the forced use of the batmobile as someone mentioned earlier, and overall the game just doesn't feel like the older ones (City and Asylum). I had trouble stopping playing both of them but I still haven't finished Arkham Knight to this day. Where with the other ones I had those finished within a couple of months of purchasing them.

Rainbow Six Siege
Batman Arkham Knight (even though it's in my top 10 of the year, I expected more from it)
Rory McIlroy PGA Tour

Siege and Evolve for me. I played betas and skipped the games thankfully.

Not a fan of the multiplayer only type game. They get stale kinda fast for my playstyle.

I miss the RB6 games that had both single and multiplayer. Those were great.

I hope The Division is more what I'm interested in.

Arkham Knight for me, closely followed by Fallout 4.

Hated the batmobile so much in Arkham Knight and just didn't feel like it did anything new and was more of them same which isn't necessarily a bad thing but I think I was just fed up with the formula.

Fallout 4 is a game I have no desire to go back and play. I loved 3 and New Vegas but this one hasn't held my interest as much as I thought it would and I think the crafting and settlement building direction the game has gone has a lot to do with that for me.

I didn't get to Arkham Knight with its PC troubles, but that in itself was a disappointment.

Fallout 4 could make the list too. It was my first venture into the Fallout world and it just didn't match the hype. It's not bad, but after putting in over two days worth of playing time, I don't really feel like playing it much more.

Fifa also fits the bill. Just wasn't feeling it this year.

Lastly, the PS4's lineup in general last year was underwhelming.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

Batman: Arkham Knight - Weak Story, crippled launch state on my preferred platform made it unplayable and ultimately pulled from shelves, batmobile sections are god awful and last too long.

I haven't been that disappointed by a game in a long time.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

Metal Gear Solid V - Maybe I was expecting too much.
Batman: Arkham Knight - See above.
Game of Thrones - A rare miss from Telltale.

Hands down mlb the show. They are so far behind in making the game a true next gen title.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

Call me crazy, but Witcher 3 for me. I just could not get into it for some reason. Looked great, but controls were crap. FIFA16 started out with promise, but patches have turned it back into the fast break arcade fest of the past.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

<b>Star Wars Battlefront:</b> Love the atmosphere, graphics, and multi-player. However, disappointed in no story campaign. EA Pricing beyond ridiculous. Expected much more. Gave us less with a whopping price tag.

<b>Daybreak Game Company (originally SOE)</b> However, little has changed. Planetside 2 was underwhelming on the PS4. H1Z1 has been in development for PS4 for what feels like years when they promised so much earlier.

Project Cars is my disappointment of 2015.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

Madden, the deeper you get into it, the more frustrating it becomes. It's close to being very good, but it misses in critical franchise and customization and the automatic field goals is inexcusable.

The Total War Series, just seems to be getting stale, no real AI improvement.

But on the flip side there are so many good games to play, that there isn't really time to focus on the bad ones.

Re: Biggest Game Disappointments in 2015

The Witcher 3
Batman Arkham Knight - PC
Evolve


NBA Live 16 was close to making that list but their last patch pulled it out of the fire.
