2. LAIR

To say this game had hype is the understatement of this console generation. Everyone believed that Factor 5's dragon flying action game would welcome in a new era for the troubled PlayStation 3. When we finally got our hands on the whole game the alarm bells immediately started ringing. The motion controls simply weren't responsive enough and they were the only way you could play the game - the decision to leave out standard analogue stick controls was simply unbelievable. Add in a less than thrilling series of missions and you had a PS3 exclusive that missed the mark completely.

1. Killzone

Perhaps we shouldn't be so harsh on a game whose hype was generated because of one tiny screen shot printed in a magazine months and months before release, but Killzone was labelled as the "Halo Killer" by Sony fans and for a long time people believed it to be true. Sadly the hype around Sony's PlayStation 2 FPS elevated people's expectations to such a high level that a pretty average game with impressive visuals simply wasn't good enough. Killzone, without a doubt, ranks as one of the biggest disappointments in video game history. We're just hoping that next year's PS3 sequel manages to live up to the enormous hype it too is generating.
