I just love that Falcon is not doing a formal video. This is him basically venting to us and Im in for it
YES ABSOLUTELY MORE OF THIS.
I'm all for a considered squawk man
2018 Falcon used to rage in his vids. I welcome that rage back.
A 32 minute video narrated by Falcon with "DISAPPOINTING" in the title? This is gonna be good. I had to pause to grab my popcorn.
I love when falcon vents because he doesn’t just rip on every game that exists like Jake does
The best part of Dead Space 3 was the co-op guy having his own weird hallucinations and seeing things, so only Player 2 could actually see them. That was clever.
And even then, I personally think they could have leaned into that more. Would have been cool if the co-op partner was shooting Necromorphs that weren't there. Also defending Carver when he has one of those "ahh I'm stuck in my own head" episodes as Issac wasn't all that fun.
Although it was barely a dead space game, I still enjoyed it. I liked the story and that you got to explore the origins of the whole shit. But I did play a pirated version many years after the release so the online shop didn’t work. I liked the idea of making your own guns. Maybe they should have called something else but still in the dead space universe, and tell people it’s not really dead space 3, and that will come later. Too bad it killed the franchise. At least for a period. Now that we got that amazing remake, maybe something good will come of it.
@@GeoPePeTto Its funny, and somewhat telling of the quality of a lot of large titles these days, where the games of the past that are generally considered to be 'bad' are still a lot of fun. More fun than so many live service trash that comes out these days.
@@TuffMelon What are talking about? There were bad games then too. People loved to hate games back then too. Some still hate ds3. There’s just more games now. Play the ones you like.
Reminds me of Splintercell Conviction. The single player campaign was whatever but the Co op campaign was far more interesting.
Wolfenstein Youngblood should be here, not only it didn't stick the landing, it didn't even fly in the same plane of reality as previous entries
Honestly I don't know the promotion around the game at launch. But by the time I played it it was clear you wouldn't be playing as THE William J Blazkowicz. And come on, It's not Wolfenstein if you're not playing as Terror Billy 😄
I agree bruh Youngblood was garbage. Idk why I stuck with the game and 100%ed it.
I haven't played Youngblood, but seeing the reviews of that game made me realize it's not worth buying and playing sequels of all the games that I played even if they're crucial for the story continuation.
God Youngblood was bad 👎 such a departure from everything that made Wolfenstein playable. I couldn't agree more really should be on this list.
My favorite wolfenstein is still return to castle wolfenstein on original xbox
Only disappointing thing about Mankind Divided is the ending. The game itself is stellar. One of the best games I've ever played.
That gameplay and locations are pretty damn amazing. It was just such a short, half hearted game with a hohum story. It was definitely a bad followup to the story in HR
@@TheForbiddenOne55I loved both.
Loved this game. As you’ve mentioned the only thing that sucks about it is that cliffhanger ending. It wouldn’t be bad if we got a continuation a two or three years later… but here we are, with Embracer group ditching the new Deus Ex project.
I didn't like it at first but the 2nd time through made me realize it's actually a better written game, better side quests, and despite fewer areas, they felt better crafted with so many little details to notice. It just didn't have a world ending plot really. It was a lower stakes game.
And it's placed under mw3, imagine that 🤢
Lords of Shadows 2 feels like Dracula got isekai’d into Warhammer 40k
I've still not forgiven them for killing the Lost Planet franchise like that. 2 was such an amazing experience.
Such a beautiful game
@@xot3rmxo💯
For some reason I enjoyed grinding the final level for the boxes, and did it a good fifty times or so. I came back years later and did a few more runs just for old times sake, and it made me wish so hard that we had gotten a proper game like that again.
I perfer 3 to 1 or 2 its the only one i could finish
Lost planet was goooood
Should have put Force Unleashed II at #1. I remember finishing that game when I was in high school and being confused that it was over so quickly. I remember actually thinking I missed something and there was no way a full AAA game could possibly be that short. I beat it in under 2 hours.
The one game I still remember saying once it was over "THAT'S IT?" I was honestly stunned by how short it actually was.
Yep, 1st playthrough, $60, less than two hours. I was shocked
Damn it’s crazy to think Mercs 2 was bad. I remember playing it as a kid and loving it. Would love a 3rd installment
Same mercenaries 2 was great, but he meant in comparison to the first, which I never played lol..
@@lololollololol629 same never had the pleasure. But the missing things he mentions would have made mercs2 even more of a legend
@lololollololol629 its back compat and on Xbox if you do want to goes for like 5 dollars 😂 now at least in my country
@@amanchoosesaslaveobeys6510 I don't have xbox, but I might be able to emulate it..
@@lololollololol629honestly, it was very disappointing at the time. The EA CEO also gave pandemic a lot more time on it, I think the next gen jump just took too long for the devs to learn. It was the game that showed me games can come out and be buggy and unfinished.
The first is loaded with content and much better progression.
Red Faction: Armageddon was a big letdown after the excellence that was Guerrilla
Damn. Good call. Played it once and never again.
Guerilla is my white dragon. I played it so much and the only thing that scratched that itch has been Elden Ring
@@BargainBinkey Am I not the only one that used to just run around in Red Faction : Guerilla and just blow things up, reload a save and then go and do it again?
@SkiBumMSP I did pretty much that but only used my hammer
Guerrilla is showing its age like Vice City.
Modern Warfare III was absolutely originally an expansion. Not only could you argue that fact that it is made up mostly of remasters of old MW II maps (how does it make sense for MW II to have a couple MW III maps, but MW III has a majority of the MW II maps? Wtf). But also, more damning is that when the game first came out, some people were having problems on consoles, where it would ask for the disc to MW II in order to play it. That's the smoking gun, as it implies that it's a DLC / expansion that you can't play without first loading into MW II.
That was fixed in an update. But yeah... MW III was 100% conceived as an expansion and pivoted at the last minute to a full-on new game release.
Yeah, and it was a bait and switch. I KNOW no official source said 2022 was going to be a 2 year game, but I got the game and played it for that reason. And I quit and will never touch an acti/blizz game ever again. If I have children they will be banned from touching their games. I don't care if it was a rumor, it sold games and they didn't deny it. And the lack of content in 2022 really made you feel like you were going to continue that game for 2 years of content.
The trophy list for Playstation literally has it (or had it) listed as supplementary MWII DLC. There is no platinum for it and it’s grouped under MWII’s trophy list.
@mr.s9783 that one really put a sour taste in my mouth. I really enjoy getting the trophies for the cod games. I didn't even bother with the campaign for this one...
I don't understand why mw2 and mw3 couldn't be separate apps and frankly I'm absolutely heart broken my childhood game is completely ruined by greed
@@mr.s9783 One of the reasons why I'll never play it, but I've seen if you play the PS4 version of it, it'll pop up only as MW3 instead of it being DLC on PS5. Which is good, but ridiculous at the same time.
I actually enjoyed MK vs DC. Played it with my team mates in college and enjoyed it for what it was
Me too!
Really NO mention of 'Army of Two'? Anyone remember this game? It was super fun! (from what I remember).. and then Devil's Cartel came out lol.
God those games were fun
I was about to comment the same thing. The first Army of Two was great, the second one... Just terrible. My other thing is, I remember really enjoying Mercenaries 2 though and thats on the list
@@MSFTJusticethe second one was good. Third one is what killed the franchise
30 mins Gameranx video, it's christmas.
I AM FUCKING ELATED SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE ITS FALCON
holy shit i just realized that, THATS GODS BLESSING XD
Pfingsten equal christmas. do not know how pfingsten is called in english.
This is the only channel that gets us gamers
Same
True my friend ❤
thats why they will never run out of top 10 lists 🔥
it's definitely the only gaming channel that consistently puts out daily videos that are genuinely interesting, and has a good mix of new and nostalgia
Second Wind and MinnMax are pretty good too.
I will say that I agreed with most of these, but I actually liked Season 2 of the Walking Dead. Wasn't as good as the first season, but really enjoyed watching Clem grow, seeing Kenny try to pick up the pieces, and I thought the ending was pretty wild. Set a great, hopeless tone. Worst part was Arvo and Carver, one was just not written well and the other felt like he was trying too hard to be the villain.
Dark souls 2 I do believe was intended to be a open world game which is why it has such a strange level structure
Payday 3. Its only redeeming factor is that the gameplay at its core is fairly solid. Literally everything else - the UI, skills, challenges, progression, weapon customization, level design are just so lazy and generic it feels like they were made by AI. It's yet another game that was released 2 years before it was ready.
Gameplay isn't even THAT solid. Go play crimeboss if you want more natural gunplay. 1600 hours in payday2. 16 in payday 3
Crimeboss!!!? Pahahahaha
Payday 3 is better than pdayday 2 ur opinion is unvalid
@@jamesconlin5099 payday 3 is worse in quite literally every way.
@@samw2670 just bought it for $12. It's everything payday 3 said it would be
The only disappointing thing about Deus ex is that we aren't getting a third game. Mankind Divided was excellent but it was the middle of the trilogy. We need one more to finish it.
Human Revolution Directors cut needs to be put for sell on Xbox.
Sounds like the franchise didn't sell, they were gonna make a big universe out of it at one point
Don't you mean 4th game?
@@redfloyd69 I didn't like the games much. Idk, the gameplay and the feel of the controls always felt dated in both games (kinda like that Thief reboot. Eidos Montreal just isn't as talented as other studios imo) and Adam Jensen's monotonous voice got boring fast.
Man I loved Force Unleashed so much that I got the metal case for FU2 and I was tragically disappointed. I was gelling with it for the most part (largely due to the combat) eager for more then you reunite with Juno and it just ends. I was so frustrating baffled that I thought clearly my disk was bugged or something. The whole game felt like the first act😪
Yeah what cuts deeper is the FU3 was supposed to be a multiplayer game.
@@Xlen-omega Starkiller slaughtered so Cal could run🥹
@@MrHouse1657 lol yeah but I like Galen Marek better. Cal is awesome though, can't wait for the third game.
@@Xlen-omega for real and the actor is just the biggest Star Wars nerd. He works on a few Star Wars projects but no sign of him reprising the character. Almost wanted to believe he’d pop up in Ahsoka but he just did voice work
@@MrHouse1657 I got to meet him last year. It was awesome, he's a really cool guy.
I like the longer format. Keep it up if you can!
Falcon back at it with "Driv 3 R" 😂
Gets me every time.
I was a kid and maybe didn't know better but I played a ton of Driv 3 R, absolutely loved that game. Always get a little sad Falcon loves to hate it.
@@mikhailkosyan9735 I played the hell out of it too. I had a love/ hate relationship with the game because I knew the game sucked but it was the most fun game I had at that time lol
Yeah the low effort joke that he keep pulling out for years because he is just not funny, despite him trying hard to be. Cringe.
Well, it IS the name of the game as written :P
2:21 It's rather humorous how "Invisible War" was so "invisible" in everyone's memory (forgettable), it's basically "invisible" while "Mankind Divided" divided critics and players upon release. It's like the developer knew this in advance, so tacked on the subtitle just to be ironic and self aware. 🤣🤣
These game developers are becoming lazier and greedier every year. Eventually, we'll all see premium battle passes and cash shops flood new titles with numerous microtransactions.
@@SSGoatanksI know what you mean and agree 100%, but I’m going to be “that guy” and ask you make one correction going forward. It’s all the publisher’s fault, not the developers. EA wanting to put real life ads in their games comes directly from the board members, stock holders and CEO, not the people who bust their asses day in and day out actually making the game. Please don’t blame the devs for things they have no power over. They’re usually huge fans of gaming, which is why they make them in the first place, and know better than anyone what we like and dislike in games.
TL;DR EA ruins everything
At least Spiderman 3 was quite fun
MKvsDC was awesome, thank you. It ultimately led to Injustice.
I would argue it was so bad that it is actually what lead them to realizing that franchises should be mostly separate. Outside of guest spots where it makes sense. Like The Joker kills. So putting him in a MK game make sense. Not a fan of MK characters in Injustice though due to no Fatalities.
@@danielthomas7193I think that's a fair point. Having to tone down the game is what made it less compatible. However, Injustice Superman could make a cameo appearance. He'd definitely have a fatality.
@@emwbjr but DC doesn't want Fatalities performed on him. So he could be a Kameo (meaning the tag feature) in MK1 since those characters can perform Fatalities but can't have them done on them.
Hi Falcon, it's Folks!
We love your content 🤩 keep it up 💪💪💪
Hey
@@gameranxTV You a G Birdman. Youre gettin more righteous with these critiques in a way that shows your skill and knowledge of the industry as a real one all these years we followed ya. Falcone and Baldino? Forgetaboutit, I dip olive bread in small glass of Montepulciano when I see a new video from the La Gamer Famiglia ;)
It's falcunt overacting with his abrasive grampa voice
Telltale season 2?? Season 3 u mean
Yeah 2 was my favourite
Deus ex is like MGS5....they are both amazing and fun to play. Just they are not finished or had a proper conclusion to the story. An i dont think there ever will be. Which is a shame.
MGSV is the pinnacle of MGS gameplay and it has good characters. Too bad the story was not up to par.
MGSV got dragged down by how it was marketed and released.
Still can’t forget how Ground Zero and Phantom Pain we’re split, and not even finished at the end.
To put the nail to the MGS coffin, Konami made Survive...
Thanks for constantly creating lengthy content. As a retired veteran with way to much time on my hands and constantly trying to find things to do (Which isn't a bad thing). I know I can count on gameranx come through when I start to feel a little bored. Thanks.
I thoroughly enjoyed SC Double Agent and I had previously played all the entires before it, I loved the concept of making choices on who u side with
I loved Double Agent on the PS2, it's baffling that they did something completely different for next gent platforms.
So I'm trying to remember because the footage shown looks like what i played on my 360, how were the two versions different?
@@gr8gabe314 cinematics, gameplay and graphics. ps2 is worse graphically but I never knew until now that the game was better in on xbox360 and ps2 than on PC. I had always said I love double agent and people just look at me like "Why?". that might explain a lot of things. I'm not buying the damn thing again to see for myself tho lol
@@fatimapalacios2292I played the X360 version of the game and still didn’t care much for it. Never played the prev gen version tho.
Def Jam Icon was such a bummer
Facts
Top 5 for sure. Remove all the elements that make it fun for a sequel. Thank goodness there were still demos around when that was released.
Watch Dogs: Legion. I was so hyped when I heard they were making a third Watch Dogs, then the first trailer dropped, and I immediately knew it would be trash. I remember the promo character wearing the pig mask was where the straw broke the camels back. I wanted the fun gameplay of 2 with the amazing story of 1.
The first game was so bad that I stopped buying Ubisoft games.
The 2 was already pretty bad
As if watch dogs 1 & 2 weren't mediocre slop in the first place
The 3 comments above are trash
@@deepflare1028 hehehe
lords of shadow 1 and 2 were great i will forever replay those games
Which one do you like better?
@@Xlen-omega this is a hard question because both of them are so good but the first 1 has a better story and journey it’s longer but 2 has the better gameplay and it’s just a great continuation and you can play as alucard so i’d say 2 is my personal favorite but i think the first 1 is a little better
I know this will get lost in the mix but you know what game I miss? A game called black for the original Xbox I would love a remake of that game exactly how it is one to one just with better graphics no change in anything just upgrade the graphics and boom that would be amazing!
Dragon Age 2 should've been on this list. It had a really solid story and some interesting ideas but fell victim to the rushed out developement time.
God yes. Struggling to think of another sequel I found as disappointing.
Edit: Thought of one. TLOU2. Never looked forward to a game so much to be so utterly crushed at how terrible writing destroyed the whole game. Just the franchise really. I wouldn’t be in any rush to buy any other game in that world.
All true however I still enjoyed it. DLC were good but you can’t ignore the glaring issues from rushed dev timescales.
Interesting to imagine how good this could have been. Worst of the series but still a good game.
I didn't think it was nearly as bad as people made it out to be but it was a let down for sure.
So true. I was a HUGE fan of DA:O and the Awakening expansion was also awesome (all the DLCs were also great).
And then you get that total crap. Uninteresting story (seriously, how can you make a game like DA2 interesting if you close into a city?), forgettable characters, and that's not to mention maps that were reused over and over. Combat was also very fun... The first 2 or 3 times. What a mess.
Dragon Age 2 is a masterpiece.
This Channel is the best, made by gamers for gamers. Just how the industry should be as well but you just have greedy corporate executives ruining all the fun.
Loving the long vids
Could hear you guys all day
13:09 I hate it when the holes don’t get filled 😅
Lord of Shadows 2 is what made me a fan even though I enjoyed the first game.
Duke Nukem Forever cured me of my impulse to pre-order games.
Lmfaoooooooo I love how this was said
Funny how Gearbox has that tendency; Aliens: CM did it much for me.
Glad you covered Fear 3. Loved the first two games, and have replayed so many times, but 3 just was dead and empty inside.
Driv3r holds a special place in my heart. It was the very first PS2 game I've ever played
I started at DS 2 and I loved it still nostalgic af
Same
SSX On Tour: Take away the open world mountain of the third game, add skis to a snowboarding game, and give the game a cringy Xtreme vibe spelled the beginning of the end for not just the series but the whole genre.
Something else I hated about the Spider-Man 3 game was like at one point it just stops giving you missions and you have to just grind petty crimes for like a couple hours before you can move on. I literally never finished the game because of that.
Love when Falcon is let out of the bird cage! 🦅 😮😅
I almost said Blasphemy when you put Walking Dead 2 at number 11 but you gave solid reasoning so ill give you that
The video was out 8 minutes back???? How did you get to 15 minute mark of the video within 8 minutes???
@@raeeskhan924 Probably skimmed like I did
Coincidentally, blasphemy 2 was kind of disappointing.
Yeah I agree with his reasoning. Definitely a big departure from season 1, but still not bad. I did not care for the final season tbh
Yeah was surprised that Season 2 was on here and not the expected “black sheep” of the series, ANF/Season 3.
Good reasons for being here of course, in a way the mentioned problems with S2 only got semi-worse with Telltale made Games in general around that time (and by the time TTG realised this & tried to course correct with the 2nd half of Batman:TEW & TWD:TFS, it was too late for that act to save the company).
Conviction doesnt deserve what it got. Its the Max Payne 3 of Splinter Cell. Its more aggressive to match the characters mental statez
We all know why they made that change though. It was to reach a broader audience. Undeniable fact. That will always be disappointing to stealth purists.
For the record, I like Conviction. It's a fun video game. It's not what I wanted from Splinter Cell though.
@@PowderedVoltage Its a tough thing too. You want to placate the fans, the ones who made the brand what it is but as a creative you want to evolve and change the game to stretch your artistic legs and bring in new people. If they didnt create it how could we have become fans. And if we werent fans how could they make more. Fans and developers should give each other more leway to express and evolve and respect why we fell in love. We all get done dirty trying to please all and be pleased
I watch these for Falcon’s zen philosophical asides.
Ds2 isn't perfect but I love it. Lords of shadows 2 has got to be my biggest sequel let down.
Man, the Mercenaries games were great. 2 was definitely a step back, but still fun as hell.
I loved Castlevania LOS2, the story was nice and the combat felt great, idc what the earlier games were when it came out I had tons of fun, the story of the toy maker that lost his heart still makes me cry to this day. The OSTs in the game were peak!
Did you play part 1? It was epic as hell! LOS2 was ok but no LOS1.
I felt that LOS2 story didn't go anywhere. I really didn't like it. LOS1 was incredible tho
@@AqvinateYeah I loved part one it was epic. Part 2 has a lot of problems I still platinum it but I didn't like it as much.
@@Aqvinate Agree to disagree
The story was weird, but the mood and the music was awesome, one of the best soundtrack in gaming imo
Funny how Mercury Steam has been the only studio making non indie Metroidvenia games in the last 15 years.
Everything you said about DS2 was spot on. I just kept saying "yup", "yep yep yep", "you right"
I honestly loved Dead Space 3. Sure it was no 2, but heck it was an awesome ride.
Personally quite liked DS3, played it through a couple times even, Solo and Co-op
I think it being a direct sequel didn't do it any favors.
It continued the story of Isaac, but lacked the same atmosphere.
Doubt people would've minded as much if it was either a serious/tense game, or they just went nuts on the weapons. They did something in the middle.
Regenerators were sometimes something else especially on hardcore
Yeah, same here. Especially revisiting the place where it all started. I love when games show some big thing happening in the past, only to let you explore the location after many years and see the aftermath. Maybe they should’ve stated their intentions with the direction of the game from the start, and promise to make a true sequel after it. Hope the remake will revitalize the franchise.
The saddest one was Kerbal Space Program 2
It went downhill when KSP itself had the devs install some kind of spyware called Red Shell into the game YEARS after its release.
Falcon i believe you forget about assasins creed 3, they tried to improved the game and the mechanics but they fail really hard...
I’ve been going to sleep to this channels video everyday for the last 6 years. Genuinely thank you falcon your voice and Jake’s puts me to sleep in minutes lol only thing I can go to sleep to.
Do you fall asleep kissing your pillow and listening to them like i do?
A remake of Mercinaries 1 would be great, was so good setting off all the special weapons, cluster bombs etc. Was also fun attacking the bases etc. I doubt we will ever get a 3 so a redo of one would be awesome.
Yeah a remake of Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction would be so cool. A Third game was in early development by Pandemic Studios back in 2009 until the Studio got shut down and the project got cancelled. The IP is still with EA.
Did I just watch a 32 minute gameranx video. Love this 👍🏾
From a big DS2 fan, thank you for not ripping it to shreds. That was a VERY FAIR take.
I loved it too. Though I still remember how much I hated the poison area in that one. Most difficult/frustrating of Debuffs areas in all their games. Or maybe I just got better, but that’s what sticks out to me about it
@@heavenandhellcat8054 The Black Gulch... yesss, very frustrating going through there with all of those statues and monsters popping out of the oil pools...not to mention getting invaded once you finally feel kinda safe. Lol, thank you Dark Souls.
@@heavenandhellcat8054 Moments later I realized, you may have been talking about Earthen Peak ! Either way, thank you Dark Souls, lolol.
@@sherpa6071 You know an area was brutal when you still remember how crazy it was over a decade later. lol
I refuse to get gaming information from any other channel except this one
Surprised you put TWD Season 2 on here, yeah it isn't as good as season 1 but it's still widely praised as the best Telltale TWD season after 1, and one of Telltale's best offerings in general.
Yeah I didn't agree with it being on this list either. The fanbase was really divisive based on the number of endings it had and how those were resolved in New Frontier but I never got the sense there was disappointment from players after playing it.
it surprised me too
I'm surpised, I personally thought that season 2 was the best out of the series.
TWD is a Scorching hot take 😂, respect for standing on business tho, just a crazy take 😂😂
Even though Gameranx is a great channel but it felt like they didn't played season 3 it was a bad game in the series (yeah ik Michonne is worst) but season 2 was a good game you can see how Clem is trying to be like Lee you know trying to help everyone also Kenny is trying to take care of Clem like his own daughter it looks like people are obsessed with Lee (which isn't bad thing) I was surprised when season 2 came here it wasn't disappointing in any sense
I'm so glad Assassin's Creed 3 isn't on the list. It's nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be.
Also, great video btw 👍.
AC3 is good a game, if you can handle the glitches (Which are nowhere near as bad as later AC games). And I also like Connor as well. Level design is great, and the prison section is one of the most memorable levels in the franchise.
AC 3 was solid after the first like 2-3 hours. If you could make it through that then you'd probably be OK. I loved the combat of that game just got so fatigued with how boring the story and characters were that I never finished.
@@TheForbiddenOne55 The characters were more complex and more in like with AC1 than AC2 where the Templars are just generic and cartoonishly evil, the story was boring compared to AC2 but the conflict between the Assassins and Templars and the complexity of characters like Haytham is lot better than the Ezio Trilogy's black vs white story
@@deepflare1028 fair enough. Maybe I need to play it again with a fresh lense
Duke Nukem Forever should've been in the top 5. I'm surprised it was only number 10. 😂
I remember playing force unleashed 2 and during the final fight i was thinking there was no way this was it. And it was. I was legit pissed because it just got good.
ngl twd season 2 is my fav game of the series
fr it probably had more memorable parts over the original
Yeah, New Frontier should have been on the list instead
The same point you made about Dead Space 3 is how i feel about Dragon's Dogma 2.
I couldn’t even finish DD2. It was frustrating and boring for me.
@whatdoesthisthingdo I'm still playing through it but really it just makes me want a actual sequel to the first game. With the strider back, the second skill palette back, the actual hybrid classes back, the satisfying end game loop back, and the UR dragon (or a similar boss) back.
Wait so DD2 isn’t great? I thought everybody loved it. From what I watched of it, it looked like DD just improved. It’s one of the games I want to buy as soon as I’m able. This sounds disappointing that I read this but I wondered what happened to people talking about. It was hyped and dropped and nobody ever talks about it anymore
@Chris-yv2iv I would say wait on a sale if you want the game, the game might be even better by then.
But isn't the main critique of Dead space 3 that it has changed its formula to appeal to a wider audience and the main critique of DD2 that it didn't change much and is basically a DD1.5 ? Sounds like the polar opposite
That beat at the start, plus Falcon's voice ... now _that_ is how you start a video.
I’m not a CoD player by any means, but when I decided to buy MW2 because some friends wanted to play it, I found myself overwhelmed by the menus. After playing with friends and then finishing the campaign, I tried to find a multiplayer match on my own. I was so confused by the UI and UX I just gave up, turned it off and never went back. Am I the only dummy who couldn’t figure out their damn menu system? It made me feel dumb.
I actually like lords of shadows 2 🤷🤷
and i liked saints row 4 as controversial as an opinion that might be.
It's probably the most disappointing sequel i've ever played after the outstanding LoS. But, to each his own.
I liked it too. Though he meant by comparison to the 1st game.
Gameranx might just give us lists of games...
But damn they do it good...
I am genuinely amazed that you didn't mention F.E.A.R. 2 once when talking about F.E.A.R.'s sequel.
Thank you falcon, homunculus of suck is now my new favorite term haha
I really like these longer videos and lists. Great to listen to and watch
I feel like Gameranx talks about the same 25 games over and over
"Like something - but worse" I am going to be using that phrase a lot lol.
1:07 Don’t forget that map was also used in Infinite Warfare.
Gamers argue about a lot of things, but I think one thing we all agree on is that gameranx consistently drop top quality videos.
Cheers lads.
Amen
*dumbass gamer
There, fixed it for you.
Yep, cheers mate!!
Definitely! I've been watching for the last 10 years 😊
All these poor idiots thinking these videos are top quality despite them cranking these low effort, lazy videos out daily.
I liked mankind divided and human revolution. I respectfully disagree with the sentiment that they are bad. But yes mankind divided did leave me hanging. And now, we know that we will probably never get the closure that we should.
And I respectfully say you have shit taste in video gamed and that there was a reason they failed commercially and killed the franchise
Sounded to me like he enjoyed HR and was disappointed with MD, not that he disliked both of them.
I wonder why F3ar doesn't get the same treatment as Driv3r?
As someone who went back and played Lost Planet 3 for the first time a couple of years ago, I was impressed by just how well it held up. Definitely the best in the series for me.
Gameranx is the only game reviews i trust
Glaze a little less, son.
@@MoeFokaheat some shorts boi
It's nice to see that Gameranx knows that The Last of Us 2 does not belong on these types of lists.
Yes. This list about disappointing games, not straight up bad
@@Jackfromshack It's all a matter of perspective, among other things. I enjoyed the game immensely. After my first playthrough, I used all of the cheats and played through several times on the easiest mode just so I could enjoy the story itself. Every time I played, I found new things that just made the story more complete and enjoyable. I even found out a few things that I hadn't seen before by watching other people's playthroughs.
@@Joe_Okey glad for you. Sad, that less people nowadays have any standards
I loved the online in Double Agent Next gen version. I used to play it all the time when I was younger.
DS2 was a masterclass imo. Ive played them all, NG+ DS3 4 times, and I would still place DS2 above all. My reasoning: Majula theme.
Halo 5 and halo infinite will always be blemishes. Congrats 343
Ahhh yes. 32 minutes of gameranx fueled dopamine.
About DMC 2... Me and a friend used to borrow games from each other when physical media was still a thing. I borrowed DMC 2 and they borrowed something like Valkyrie Profile 2 och Xenosaga Chronicles II. Neither is memorable or particulary good. When we were going to return the games they said "You know what, you can keep it.", and that is how DMC 2 was added to my library of PS2 games. I got it for free and I didn't want it.
I actually loved Driver3. Back in the days you had the games you had, and you played them to exhaustion. They might have been buggy and super hard, but that is what made us good gamers and don't need the weak sauce hand holding most younger games need with constant checkpoints and autosaves and walkthroughs online...
I didn’t even know there was a Dead Rising 4
Just cause 4 removed all the fun of 2 and 3 and streamlined all the boring content. Speed trails, trail missions, turret sections make up the bulk of the "campaign"
I loved Just Cause 2 and 3, and I honestly put 4 down so damn quick. I couldn't believe how they could mess up the formula they perfected. The map was too damn big, too!
Just cause 4 looks like a Ps2 game fr. Like how did they make just cause 3 beautiful and 4 really really bad
Every Assassin’s Creed game since AC3
AC4 though???
ac3 sucked black flag was one of the best
Every AC after AC3 are masterpieces
@@kingmarre9130 No.
AC3 isn't that bad, especially when compared to Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla.
Force Unleashed 2 is a great game it’s just criminally short.
Dead space 3 is so disrespected, played this coop with a friend and it was one of our best coop moments.
Most of these games are pretty cool to play deus ex was really fun , the problem in this era of gaming is that video game snobs come across in their video synopsis summaries or critiques to throw their entire life into and video games and thus will be more sensitive to see things as being a "incomplete creation" as opposed to a "fun experience" that was meant to be had and walked away from while you go take part in other facets of you're life..... Video games are just there for fun and passive escape, they need not be out of body perfect experiences.... As long as you're not doing over the top virtue signaling or political messaging or any type of bait and switch most games are pretty enjoyable on their own. ....
HHHelll Nah Bruh, Walking dead season 2 was not disappointing.
facts
Season 1 and 2 were great. Season 3 with Javier was disappointing I thought. The only thing that kept the story interesting were the parts with Clementine.
Yes. Yes it was. Everything after S1 was trash.
It wasn't as good as the first but "disappointing" is a stretch.
You're right. It was complete trash.
Maybe I'm a masochist or maybe I was hit on the head with a somewhat large brick, but I love Dark Souls 2 more than 3 :)
'Homunculus of suck' is nothing short of legendary.
