Since the Xbox 360 originally came out quite some time ago, we've been fortunate enough to see some excellent titles which leave us longing for more. On the other hand, we've seen just as many titles which have left us feeling angry and cheated.
Let's face it, games are not cheap and when we have to fork out a lot of money for a game, we expect it to be good. At the very least, we don't expect the production companies to release a game simply because they feel their profits need to be boosted. What makes it worse, is that a game can still be good even if it has a poor story line. Even when the story is useless, providing there are some truly memorable characters, most of us will be happy.
Look at the Xbox 360 game Two Worlds, for example. A few people out there will enjoy it, but the majority thought that this game had downright awful graphics. The sound was terrible and the control configuration was just bad. The great thing about the game was its online play, but that was broken as well. This game was just a complete failure in every aspect.
Another game - and it won't be a surprise if no one has heard of - is called Hour-of-Victory. The problem with this game is that it appeared on the shelves in stores a couple of years late. If you are looking for a great WW2 game, there is the Call-of-Duty franchise. The problem with HOV is the horrible sound and graphics. The level of design is awful and the artificial intelligence could have been trees instead. Let's not mention the bugs and glitches.
Vampire Rain was yet another total disappointment, especially since we tend to expect vampire games to be great. After all, if we play a stealth game we expect it to be challenging in the same way the Splinter Cell games are. However, in Vampire Rain, you could sneak past the vampires, even bumping them in the process, and yet you could still get through. The fact that the game was an instant failure says it all.
Next we look at Jumper, the videogame based on the movie. When this game is originally intended for a cheap machine, we have to give the programmers a medal for making things look a bit shinier and also better looking for the new platform. Not in Jumper's case, though. Pure PS2 graphics, from beginning to end. This is an insult.
Let's face it, there's no shortage of terrible games out there and unfortunately many of us become victims in that we only discover we've wasted our money when it's too late.
