About: "Power Gig: Rise of the SixString is a disappointment in almost every way. The presentation is a mess. The real SixString guitar it comes with is hard to play due to poor design. And it does not, and cannot, actually teach you anything remotely like playing real music because at its core it is just a Rock Band / Guitar Hero clone (only uses 5 frets ...) that fools you into thinking it is something more because it uses a real guitar. What a letdown."
GamingExcellence - Functioning guitar brings nothing to the table; poorly-designed interface; half the songs are locked away until you play the campaign mode; dull campaign mode.
PSX Extreme: We believe in celebrating the year's quality rather than laughing at the stinkers. And yet, we also understand the failures and near-misses and "what if...?" titles are often quite popular topics of discussion and so, as a prelude to our GotY extravaganza, we give you a few PSXE Dubious Distinction Awards.
2010 was the year we made contact with a lot of half-assed videogames. While there was much for gamers to celebrate over the past 12 months — and we here at Game|Life will be getting to that later — gamemakers also delivered an inordinate number of flops.
The following list isn't of the worst games of the year (such a list would be made up of Wii shovelware and movie games), but of the most disappointing titles, the ones that had great promise but fell way short.
let this be a lesson to other devs, stop copycatting the shit out of every genre. like a poster said a few days ago, this will be in the bargain bin with rock revolution.
