From the article: "So our favorite bundle of joy (and madness…oh what deep and despairing madness), SlasherJPC scored an interview (not really), with Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford (not really), and discussed the most recent Goliath that fell to gaming’s David, Aliens: Colonial Marines (now I wish this was the real interview)."

Player 2 takes some quiet time to look back at some of the most hyped failures of the past 10 years.
Can't argue with any of those really, but I would add Resident Evil Operation Racoon City and Metal Gear Survive to that list. Both terrible games from good franchises.
