The only games I've ever preordered were XCOM: Enemy Within and Telltale's The Walking Dead S2 and both turned out pretty good, so I'm satisfied. xD

Well i didnt preorder it, my brother did but anyways modern warfare 3. In my opinion that game was so shit it stopped me from wanting to play cod for a long time, ive recently started playing cod4 again but screw the new games, there is the whole people think of copy and paste but its not copy and paste, the quality slightly increases and the gameplay decreases, the newer games suck ass big time.

 

I played MW1 with a few friends recently. They maintained stopping power and juggernaut are over powered. I went 25-1 using my own finding of the bandolier double tap deep impact silence ak. Not saying I created it just I found it out on my own when the meta was Jugs/Stopping power. God I forgot how much I loved that game. You always had a way to beat a specific class. Was really the perfect cod.

 

Worst game I preordered would have to be Gears 3. Only game I ever cancelled a preorder for/

At the moment at least one of my bigger disappointments when it came to pre-ordering was with Brink.

I tried to pre-order Black ops 2 hardened edition but best buy messed up and so it was canceled and gave the copy to someone else. Never pre-ordered anything other than that so I guess it defaults as worse since I never got it.

That's 5 more FPS than my rig.

 

I never preordered anything but I'm playing the Destiny Beta and it's pretty nice.

 

So the worst thing I've preordered is lining up to be my personal GOTY.

I don't think I ever preordered anything unless I knew for a fact I would like it. I guess the closest to a complete disappointment would be ME3. Decent game with an ending so profoundly disappointing I do feel bad about having bought that game.
