Spore - The creature creator was great, but the game was nothing like what I had hoped for; I want my SimEverything :(
The last game that did this for me was White Knight Chronicles. The story of it just irked me in a manner that should not be done.
Star Trek Legacy -- I such a hard time understanding the controls (and no real manual or in-game support for the PC) that I barely touched it. I need a, sigh, 360 controller to play it. Absurd! A starship sim should run fine from a keyboard.
Fallout 3. I was hoping for a perfect marriage of first-person shooter and RPG, but got an RPG with terrible shooting. The VATS system, while interesting and cool the first couple times I used it, began to just take me out of the game by it's fifth use. As in all Bethesda RPG's, the NPC's lacked personality (or, you know, movement.)
Thankfully, Borderlands came along and was everything I wanted Fallout 3 to be.
It really stinks, because with all the DLC support and accolades, it makes me feel like I missed out on something.
The Conduit. still haven't beaten campaign.
