Complex - Sometimes your favorite band breaks up. Then ten years down the road they get talked into doing a reunion show. Which sounds like a great idea. At first.

Everyone looks a little haggard. Maybe a bit bloated and draggy. They don't sound as tight as they used to. Maybe multiple divorces, bankruptcy, and a jaunt to rehab have taken their toll. In other words, they're showing their age. No longer the immortal rock gods they once were, they seem almost..feeble.
Too many games aren't given a second shot. We at VGU choose which games we would love to see receive a sequel.
The Saboteur - criminally underrated and a fantastic mechanic of bringing colour back to Nazi-occupied Paris.
The article lists Bulletstorm, Sleeping Dogs, and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
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.
Bulletstorm, I actually liked the gameplay but the atrocious writing and characters made me despise the game by the end of it.
Thanks to a bustling mod community on Steam, Gearbox's Aliens: Colonial Marines actually has a stellar multiplayer experience to offer these days.
