    Default Xbox 360 Games Not to GamingGamingGaming in the Bargain Bin - 2008

    2008 was one of the best years for gaming that I can remember, some really stellar titles were released for Microsoft's Xbox 360 system. The unfortunate thing about such a good year is that with every triple A title there is bound to be an equally horrible one. Thankfully we are here to keep you as far away from these games as possible, even when the prices are slashed and they end up in the bargain bin. Even though the games below did not live up to gamer's expectations I still want to make sure the developer's know that a lot of work was put into them; I know how much effort developing a next-gen video game takes and whether it was good or not it is still someone's labor of love and for that gamers everywhere are appreciative; next time just work a bit harder. Check out our full list of what not to GamingGamingGaming in 2008 below, along with the game's current "new" price on Amazon.com:

    I know that games based on movies generally suck but both Iron Man and Hellboy especially dreadful!

    Kane and Lynch

    I think I don't really need to elaborate further.

    Actually I don't tried those games (only the demo of the first one), but I think that there are really bad or at least very expensive : Iron Man and Golden Axe Beast Rider both from Sega Secret Levels.

    It's sad how much money goes into these games that end up not being fun. Even worse though would be being on a team that produced one of these games. Ouch.

    I guess in those cases you just have to be proud of the work you individually accomplished. The quality of your model, the layout of your level, and that type of stuff.

    Agreed.

    If you don't have a LOT of patience, stay away from Assassin's Creed. Also avoid Vegas 2 if you are not invested in multiplayer.
