Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
Lost Planet had potential. It really did. However, terrible, emotionless voice acting and incredibly poor translations soiled what could have been an enjoyable third-person shooter experience.
The fights were excellent and the gameplay overall was solid, but a dismal story coupled with the problems mentioned above really ruined Lost Planet: Extreme Condition. Somehow, this title sold 2.8 million copies.

Ah, the Xbox Kinect. It was a great idea in theory, but the technology available at the time just wasn’t good enough to make the Xbox add-on a viable gaming option. However, despite the failures of the Kinect, one of its titles sold incredibly well- Kinect Adventures. In fact, it sold 24 million copies.
