The top five most disappointing Xbox 360 games
A disappointing game might not be awful. But there’s a nagging feeling that, for whatever reason, the game just failed to live up to its potential.
5. Assassin’s Creed
It’s got some fantastic ideas, an amazing graphics engine, tight controls, and some of the best animation that we’ve seen so far. So what exactly went wrong? A poorly judged interest curve is a bad start, with a slow beginning and intrusive tutorial. As the game goes on though, the repetitive mission structure begins to drag, and the game’s lack of a decent stealth mechanic does little to help. Promising, clever, fun, but not all that it could have been and ultimately disappointing.
