PC World writes: "2011 is promising some pretty impressive gaming titles, but will they be everything they're vaunted to be? We've picked out six titles we think will disappoint gamers this year.
We're not saying they won't be good -- but we don't think they'll be as good as they're being hyped up to be, whether it's by marketers or by rabid fanboy gamers."

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
"The Singapore-based indie games publisher Spiral Up Games and Qingdao/Shandong-based (China) indie games developer Aluba Studio, today announced with great happiness and excitement that their hacking adventure "Cyber Manhunt 2: New World" is coming to PC via Steam EA on May 10th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Disagree with all of them (except maybe Driver: I want a return to the old Driver)
Personally I feel that diablo 3, portal 2, and LA Noire can live up to the hype.
I can't really speak for the others, but knowing the devs like blizzard, valve, and rockstar, I think they'll do fine.
swtor would do fine because bioware is up there in terms of good developers....but since it's an mmo, mmos always always seem to have trouble.
This is sounding stupid
"Now that it's being tailored for consoles as well as PCs, and it's getting the mass-market treatment, we think Portal 2 is going to be dumbed down and cutesier than the original"
Portal 1 was on 3 platforms and Portal 2 is on... 3 platforms. Obviously a good gaming site.
And how is Driver: SF overhyped? I hadn't heard of it until now and noone is talking about it.
I think all of them will deliver the goods except for Duke Nukem and Driver. L.A. Noire will likely be the best imo.
Agree with most of them except L.A Noire and Portal 2. All other games are extremely overhyped. Let's take duke nukem for example: Ugly graphics and boring mechanics, but everyone is hyping the game to hell just because it's duke nukem.
