I agree. I played the Bodycount demo and it was the worst FPS I've ever played. I didn't know shooting a gun in iron sights made the screen look as if a earthquake was occuring. LOL. Very disorientating. Duke Nukem Forever and Dungeon Siege III - I love both so I obviously wouldn't put them on the list. The others don't look interesting to begin with so I never gave them anytime.

Yeah, reactions to Duke Nukem Forever were heavily divided, but in the end the Most Disappointing and Worst Game Awards are very subjective in nature :)

Bodycount was really, really bad, I mean like, everything about it :P Dungeon Siege 3, as we said, wasn't really horrific, we just grew bored of it much too quickly and it just wasn't any fun.

I actually thought of buying Knights Contract, but when I saw the gameplay having to get the main character back on his feet if he took too many hits and watching how the AI co-op partner could never seem to stay out of harm's way causing a GAME OVER if she dies, I said it wasn't for me.

It was a game where the ideas were great, and the premise and story were really interesting, but everything fell flat as far as gameplay was concerned.

And your partner really seemed to always contradict her desire to live a nice long life, the way she couldn't stay out of harm's way. You can imagine the frustration involved when you're trying to feel bad-ass pulling your broken bones and limbs back together but she's off busy trying to block swords with her boobs \:D?

I wish it had been a CGI movie. It could have been really cool.

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g583d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot625d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan624d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel625d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
