Yeah, well some people got wayyy too hyped for it. But it is as good as it could have been, unless everybody wanted it to be delayed again.

LOL oh yes so true, i know the story behind Daikatana and Romero's Ion Storm...he totally f'ed that one up.

Crysis received an extreme amount of hype and rightfully so BUT at the end of the day, everyone forgot that Crytek tend to have a habit of developing games a generation ahead hence the performance problems on current PC's with Crysis...that'll all change in Q4 this year



ahh yes i remember that game! with Romero behind quake and all that, the hype for Daikatana was over the top! and when the game finally came out(after endless delays), it ended up being pretty sh!te. whats the story behind that then? i remember reading about it, but cant remember it now...

crysis - yeah i agree rightfully so. my housemate's been playing it and he said the story is pretty good as well. have you seen the graphics on that game? prob the best ive seen in a game for a loong time.. pity my old PC running 6600GT cant take it

For me it was Mario Kart for the Wii. Ever since the Gamecube version the game had gotten less fun, the Wii version sounded like it would rock... and it is pretty much the gamecube version again. 64 was the bomb!

Honestly, COD4 snuck up on us, You cant say there was hype surrounding it. It just came out and everyone was like "OMGZZZZ INFINITY WARDZZ MADE NEW GAME" and then everyone bought it because it would be as good as COD2 or better.

It tried to be too "grounded".

I couldn't give a toss about what happened to nikko.

The missions lacked that "over the top" comedic appeal of the earlier games.

Only being able to store 2 cars per safe house was annoying.

Constantly getting nagged by "friends" to do pointless $hit.

Being unable to hear mobile phone conversations due to back ground noise.

Unable to buy businesses and amass wealth

And most annoying of all, it just wasn't a GTA game without the cash for kill streak power ups (i can't believe this doesn't bother more people).

Technically however, GTA4 was near flawless.
