Default Re: (OT) Games That Have Dissapointed You

I don't buy too many games, but there have been some disappointments:

1. Civ III (My expectations were too high. I wanted SMAC on Earth)
2. Seven Kingdoms (RTS just isn't exciting to me)
3. Europa Universalis II (Locks up on my computer even though I meet the minimum requirements)
4. Black and White (Same problem as EU II)
5. Spaces Empires IV (AI and graphics) (Please don't go ballistic, read on...)

Best games:

1. SMAC (Depth of play is immense - did need some serious patching, though)
2. Space Empires IV Gold (PBW and modability make AI and graphics deficiencies irrelevant - or even an asset in the case of graphics, because an artistically challenged person like me can make a shipset)(Oh, and I shouldn't forget, the best community of gamers anywhere)
3. Combat Mission (revolutionary gameplay - this is how to combine turn-based and real-time action!)
4. Civ II
5. Strategic Command (Third Reich on the computer!)

I'll reserve judgment on MoO3 until I actually play it.
