Top Five Most Disappointing Games of 2020

Phil writes, "It's an annual tradition at SuperPhillip Central's year-end award show to talk about the best and brightest in gaming each and every year. It's also an annual tradition that we take the good with the bad--the yin with the yang, if you will--and publish one less-than-stellar category to have your game nominated for, and that's SPC's Most Disappointing Games of the year. 2020 is no different--save for a grotesque pandemic threatening all of us, of course--so the SuperPhillip Central Best of 2020 Awards rolls on with the games that didn't live up to the hype, as the kids say, didn't live up to their potential, or were just plain bad! Here are the list of "winners" as we count down the Top Five Most Disappointing Games of 2020."

Will make a note to avoid Minecraft Dungeons.

bouzebbal1588d ago

From what I played this gen tlou2 is the biggest disappointment this year.. I made it halfway and I couldn't anymore.

Haaliax1588d ago

For me Minecraft Dungeons was great. I really liked the aesthetics and it is a simple fun game to play

Knushwood Butt1588d ago

My kids play the base game so it's only a matter of time before they start asking about expansions / DLC.

Wild guess: cyberpunk is number 1. Not even clicking. I just know this was written largely as a cover to complain about cyberpunk. Am I right? Be honest now, dearie.

From a business point it doesn't make sense, but they should have avoided releasing Cyberpunk for PS4/XB1.

CD Projekt after years and years of impeccable reputation, all went down the drain for a bad console port...

CantThinkOfAUsername1588d ago

Hopefully they turn it around like No Man's Sky, and give us the proper game that was advertised/shown.

Ah the Avengers game, initially started off looking rough with character faces and low gamer excitement. The devs worked on the faces and tried to make thr game look more exciting, still really no takers. Now the fame has released and is a wasteland will little to no players dying a slow painful death.

"...and while the execution was off-putting, the numerous bugs and glitches, matchmaking errors at launch, and painful progression meant that the player base vanished as quickly as a snap from Thanos' fingers."
Bu... bu... but crossplay play tho, it will swoop in and save the day replenishing dead servers with players from other platform, it will bring seperate universes together for one great gaming community. So I ask where are all these people now who were championing crossplay, why are multiplayer games still dying?

Edgelordsupreme1588d ago

Saying Avengers failed so this is some kind of great Mea Culpa against all MP games is something only a "gamer" could think up. You truly are one of the special people that keeps this community stupid, kudos it akes a talented idiot to appear markedly more inept than the average N4G user.

DLSS should help the Nintendo Switch 2 with longevity

Profchaos14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

Based on so e of the impossible ports we saw on switch 1 I'm not worried about the hardwares longevity.

Next gen systems ps6 and next box might slow down switch 2 development but given leaks showing PlayStation releasing a new portable system around the same time as ps6 that can play ps5 games says that next gen cross gen seems to be poised to last the entire generation

And right now I'd say there isn't much that couldn't be scaled down to run on switch 2

Goodguy0115d ago

Nvidia or Nintendo need to come out and detail how dlss will work on switch 2. Like is it dlss4? Or just completely customized for the switch.

Tacoboto15d ago

I'm sure they've detailed exactly that in documentation provided to developers.

b00mFargl315d ago

It will probably be behind a $20 demo that we have to download. 😂

PRIMORDUS15d ago

I like to know as well, which version of DLSS? 2, 3, 3.5 or 4? I mean it's not that hard for Nintendo to say which version games will use.

Profchaos14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

Given the specs of the system and the time the hardware was produced if I had a stab in the dark I'd say a heavily customised dlss3

Neonridr15d ago

it's GPU is based around ampere technology, which is 3 series cards tech. So some features from DLSS4 can be ported down to older cards, just not some 5 series exclusive features like multi-frame gen.

Notellin15d ago

If they did what would that be even do for you?

originaljohn11d ago

Why do you care, are you a developer?

40fps docked is a interesting choice as it's in the vrr range but we don't have confirmation of vrr docked
