Star Wars - Battlefront: it just felt incredibly boring and shallow, especially for a Star Wars game.
Half-Life 2: again, this game felt shallow and lacked purpose. It's physic innovations were fantastic but served no real purpose other than to show off when the intention of the game is to be a revolutionary epic with a strong storyline pulling it along.
Ninja Gaiden: sure it's pretty but so incredibly boring!
Need for Speed Undeground 2: basically part one with a free roam feature and even dumber AI.
Hyper Street Fighter II (PAL): missed out on SFIII and played like a hacked arcade version of SFII (to counter this though the Xbox version was fucking brilliant).
Mortal Kombat Deception: chess Kombat was cool, konquest was cool, puzzle kombat was cool but the core ingredient, the actual fighting, was poor and sub-standard.
Spiderman 2: I can't honestly see why this game was being praised so much, it looked horrendous and was nothing new or exciting. The missions were bland and uneventful and overall it was just an average movie tie-in.
Prince of Persia - Warrior Within: they took part one and stripped away all the clever goodness about it, added a pathetic cliched heavy metal score and turned the game into an 'edgy' and 'alternative' bloodfest. What a fucking joke.
