With a Wired magazine subscription, gaming fans can find out what the publication thinks are the most disappointing games of the year.
According to the magazine, there was "contact with a lot of half-a**ed" games during 2010.
In tenth place in its rankings is Dark Void, which should be a great idea but it was a "non-starter in the end".
Vanquish looked like it would provide the "complete package" for gamers, according to Wired magazine, but it didn't.
Coming in fifth place in the magazine's list is Crackdown 2. It apparently "tweaked the formula too much" and lost "the magic of the original".
Taking the top spot in the Wired magazine selection is Realtime Worlds' APB. Dubbed a "sophomore padded bra", the game was a "half-baked compromise" between Crackdown and Counter-Strike that was "cancelled almost instantly".
At the other end of the scale, the best-selling Xbox games list, presumably compiled before Call of Duty: Black Ops was released, features Halo 2, Halo: Combat Evolved and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, among others.
