Top 10 Most Disappointing Video Game Sequels Of All Time (Part 2)
While most video game sequels try to improve over their predecessors, some just are not able to live up to the expectations set by the games that came before. So here are the top 10 most disappointing video game sequels of all time. Also, this is Part 2 of a five part article, and you can check out Part 1 here. Ghost Recon: Future Soldier This game suffered from the same issues as did Call of Duty: Infinite. Frequent sequels, with increasing focus on futuristic warfare lead to a game that simply did not resonate with the audience. Thief Stealth games are often a slow and calculated affair. However, when littered with loading screens and backtracking it can become outright tedious. And that’s Thief for you. Battlefield: Hardline While the campaign was actually not half bad, the multip...
The Best of 2016: Top 5 Disappointing Games
Let’s face it, 2016 wasn’t exactly the best year in gaming, though not the worst either. From No Man’s Sky to Mafia III, hype and publicity was the order of the day and all we got in the end was either broken, incomplete or a straight up crap fest. Here are our 5 most disappointing picks in gaming for 2016. 1. No Man’s Sky Release Date: 9th August, 2016 Platforms: Windows PC and PlayStation 4 No Man’s Sky, the most anticipated game of 2016, the game that was supposed to define the standards for gaming, the game that was supposed to change how we play and think about video games forever. Back to reality, and after numerous delays, death threats, and a lawsuit, we get a buttload of procedural-ly generated mediocrity, and Hello Games faces another lawsuit for fa...
Did Take-Two CEO Take A Jab At Reviewers And Game Critics?
During a recent earnings call, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed Mafia III’s review scores, among other things. He admitted that the scores were lower than the company had hoped for, but also pointed out that the game is selling well, considering that it had sold more than 4.5 million copies in its first week, setting a new record for 2K Games. “In terms of the reviews and scores, it was sort of an odd anomaly,” He said. “The scores were lower than we would have liked. But there are a lot of stellar reviews.

So I think we and our competitors are seeing some anomal...
5 Things Mafia III Does Better Than GTA V
We know that Mafia III has not received the most welcome reception as many expected it to. But there are many things the game gets right, and these are things that have made my time with the game a lot more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise. The game’s story, setting, characters and core gameplay all seem so well tailored for the time period it is set in. Even though the game has a massive open world setting, it is great to see equal importance given to the characters and story. As much as I have enjoyed my time with GTA V, there are certain aspects where Mafia III clearly does way better than GTA V ever did. This is where I think Mafia III takes the lead. It boasts of a large open world but at the same time keeps your mission and side missions focused on an overall objecti...
