Kingdom Hearts (the first one).Ugh, where do I begin?The storyline was decent at best, convoluted at worst. None of it even made any sense half the time, and I kept having to stop and go, "Wait, what's going on...?"I mean, you don't have to tell me how to play it, but I shouldn't have to refer to a walkthrough every five minutes because you offer no clues as to where to go next, SQUARE ENIX.Plus the 2-D characters and cheesy dialogue- the voice acting was okay, but DAMN. The lines were just dripping with lactose. Like 4Kids' Yu-Gi-Oh!.And then the controls- the fights are messy and fast, and you have to scroll through a damn drop-down menu to cast a spell or use an item while at the same time trying to avoid the crazy attacks thrown at you by annoying bosses. Not to mention the Heartless were EVERYWHERE. I couldn't even take two steps without like fourteen of those bastards popping up and jumping all over the place.Oh, and did I mention the camera? I don't think I did. The camera was everywhere except where I wanted it to be, and it twitched and rolled everywhere; especially while jumping; making places like The Cave of Wonders hell to traverse through. And don't even get me started about climbing up the waterfall area in the Jungle.Riku was annoying- whether you were fighting him or just viewing a scene with him in it or even THINKING about him. Cloud was annoying to fight, but other than that I didn't care about him. Leon and Yuffie were a pain in the ass to fight, too. Oh, and how about I tell you all about how the bosses did the same exact thing OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. This is supposed to make it so that you had to work out a strategy, but it was making it less challenging and more annoying.Plus Donald kept dying.This entire game read like a bad fanfiction and played like Space Bunnies Must Die. Except Kingdom Hearts was pretty and had nice music, even if it looped over and over again.I did have fun collecting items and the Hundred Acre Wood level was cute(Though that part where you have to jump across the stumps with Tigger and Roo was infuriating).Over all, Kingdom Hearts was a nice kill-time and wasn't necessarily a BAD game, it was full of things that just pissed me off and did NOT live up to its hype as some "super deep, super meaningful heart-wrenching tale".And did I mention the cheese?Oh, the cheese...

Madworld, that game seemed like the hottest thing for the wii, but then it only last around 6 hours and is quite repetitive

The Final Fantasy remakes.Numbers three and four were alright but the first and second ones were slightly confusingand it took ages to figure out where to go to not be killed.

I thought the Shenmue series was going to be a lot better than it was.I bought the game for the original Xbox and it was pretty good at first but the nearly non-existant story and the boring gameplay made me stop playing it after about 5 hours. I just didn't feel like I was getting anywhere.

WarioWare Smooth Moves was like that for me. At first it's fast paced and fun, but then it just gets a little too fast and a little too repetitive

x_x Please don't tell me F.E.A.R. is a really terrible game. 
I haven't had a chance to play it. I mean is it really really bad or is it that people just expected way more out of it? Anywho, I'm going to say that the game that seemed awesome at first was silent hill 5. In the end though I was left with some disapointment. I mean it left with the desire of it needing a final you know UMPH to it. >.>

I would say Fallout 3. Had good concept but still needs work. Plus the DLC is sub-par.

I used to think that Halo 3 and Afro Samurai were awesome games, but I got very bored of them in a short time. They were not very interesting in terms of plot.

star wars the force unleashed, almost everyone said it was a great game but i think it just okey the realy bad part about it is you just have to complete story mode over and over again and theres nothing else about it.

I think a lousy game to play would be digimon dawn, I thought it was going to be cool and fighting.. but it ended up being worse than any game, the animation is the only thing its good, the plot stinks and the battle system is bad.. I would love it if the battle system was like pokemon mystery dungeon.
When the going gets tough, the tough goes shopping...

Far Cry 2 seemed like the perfect game at first.Three hours and about 50 miles driven for every 5 enemies shot later... not so much.
