I would've included Fallout 4, but I didn't expect much from it from the start.

Haven't played Fallout 4 yet but from the majority here and other sites, it seems like if it's your first game in the franchise, you'll most likely enjoy it a lot more than those who have played Fallout 3 and New Vegas because while the game is still good, it's simply just more of the same. In other words, you know what you're getting already and there's no surprises.

Very fair assessment IMO

Star Wars for me. Didn't even buy it, played it on EA access 10 hour trial, still have time left. Was expecting better and no single player killed it for me.

Every game but the tomb raider remaster and I can honestly say that.

Every game that dropped last year was a disappointment to you?

Yes but the next gen experience in full has been a disappointment, I remember how I felt when I first saw the division trailer, how detailed everything was, the CPU AI, it felt like something fresh and innovative, fast forward to now and I haven't experienced that feeling with any of these games but I really enjoyed Tomb Raider.

For me it's Battlefront, but that said, I also love it at the same time. It's weird. The elements it does well it really does well. But the lack of depth really detracts from the long-term replayability. Considering how long many of us have been pining for a new BF game it just fell short of the mark as far a being a well rounded and deep game.

Although I answered previously, I have to at least also identify Joe Montana Football. Talk about your let downs. We all heard the rumors. E3 2015 was going to reveal a true next gen football game. Heck, this was going to be that must have app for me to finally buy an Xbox1.

Haven't play it, and I'm sure its fun on mobile devices but man, what a disappointment that was.

You actually believed it that?

With their deep pockets I thought Microsoft would get in bed with Montana and put out a next-gen generic football game. I knew it wasn't going to be the NFL. Just another option.

Arkham Knight would be at the top of my list, it just got incredibly tedious and just didn't grip me like the others did.

Battlefront is around that as well, mainly because of what my expectations of it's predecessor were in relation to the product given. It's by no means a bad game, but it's barebones. It nails the implementation of Star Wars terrifically, but MP only games really need to bring a lot of variety to be a success (in my opinion). It's one that I wouldn't of bought, but I got it as a christmas present. I can plug and play, but I never feel that draw to play that games give me from time to time.

Evolve, I liked the idea but I wish I didn't go in on it, or at least at full retail.

FO4 sort of disappointed me, it's a great game and I loved the experience, but compared to the weight of choice and such that I've grown accustomed to from Bethesda games, it sort of had a ME3 Ending kind of effect on me, a good game negatively impacted by the story, especially so the ending. It just wasn't ever gripping, it did drop a good bombshell so to speak, but it never drove me to move forward, I never developed any sort of desire to move forward with any group or anything, it all just felt neutral..

I'll likely sell my PS4 copy of FO4 and move on with a PC Copy, the mods will give it life for me.

I might be one of the few that wasn't disappointed with the Order, I'm disappointed it was a $60 title when it should've been a more modest $20-30 as the length of the game and amount of content wasn't great. I can't say I'm upset I bought it, but I traded it in pretty quickly after completing, there's a franchise that could be had, but they need to work on length or at least providing replayability/activities to extend the longetivity of the game.

By far for me is Fallout 4. After a while it got boring, the settlements to me were a waste of time. There was nothing in that game to motivate me to keep going, and the graphics to me were really sub-par for this generation of games.

I'm kinda in the same boat as you, nothing really blew me away. We're 2 years into this cycle and there is still nothing that jumps out.

Evolve: I was on the bandwagon early. It was incredibly fun honestly, it just got stale and reptitive and didn't quite hold up as well as the Left 4 Dead series did. The community wasn't nearly as strong for Evolve as it was for L4D.

Project Cars: It played really well, just didn't have a whole lot of depth to it. Maybe I'm just not a "sim" racer.

Arkham Knight: Got it as a gift. Played it for a few days and got bored with it. Just didn't grab ahold of me like Asylum and City did.

Battlefront: Oh how I wanted this game to succeed. The graphics, audio, and general atmosphere are fantastic. The game play is decent, and there are some really fun modes (Heroes vs Villains, Walker Assault). But like all the other games, there's just no depth. Compare it to Battlefield or Call of Duty and there's just not as much of an incentive to grind and get promotions, unless all you want are stormtrooper skins.

FIFA 16: Hasn't latched onto me yet. Almost no improvements to the Manager mode has really killed my interest. Only play it for Pro Clubs now.
