I'll add this to the list of Top 5 Most Disappointing Journalism of 2014.

Odd that these pieces all have the same (or similar) titles.

I wasn't allowed to differentiate it with our site name, unfortunately.

What's disappointing for some may be admired by others. Slow news day???

It's part of our weekly Top 5 feature. Regardless if the news is slow or not.

Rather surprised to see Shadow of Mordor in there. I thought it was a damn good game and one of the few I completed last year.

How is Driveclub on this list???? Unreal.....

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that John found it disappointing.

"DriveClub had the potential to be the next great racing game for Sony, but it was a complete disaster. The servers were completely broken from the beginning, and Sony’s promised PlayStation Plus version still hasn’t been released. Even worse, DriveClub was supposed to have a dynamic weather system that affected the driving, but that was only added a short time ago.

Of course, the broken parts of DriveClub weren’t the only reasons why this game was disappointing. Honestly, DriveClub was actually a pretty crappy racing game. The computer-controlled racers all drove in the exact same line with no changes, and anytime you ran into these racers, they would shove you off the track. When this happened, DriveClub would penalize you because of “cheating”. Even worse, the cars in DriveClub just didn’t handle very well. Trying to win felt like a chore, no matter what car you happened to use. DriveClub should have been way better, but it was truly disappointing."

Yep. Says so right in the article.
