SO DISAPPOINTED! The 3 Biggest Video Game Disappointements of 2023

As we approach the end of 2023 it's time to look back at the year that was. There was a lot of good, there was some pretty bad bad, and lots of stuff in between. Let's take a look at why we were so disappointed as we check out 3 of the biggest video game disappointments we experienced in 2023.

Honorable mention
Losing family members
Listen, I'm going to try to keep this short light but I can't look past the fact that we lost very important members of our family this year. We lost the alpha of our dog pack Murphey Mayhem in January, And just a few weeks ago we lost my brother Scott. Other family members have recently taken ill, I would really appreciate it if life would cut us a break for a bit.

Number three
PlayStation 5 slim
Generally speaking, when Sony has revised their hardware they've made it more powerful and less expensive. In 2023 they released the PlayStation 5 Slim, which wasn't a whole lot smaller than the original and wasn't any less expensive. Add to the fact that it required an internet connection to pair the disk drive to the console left a sour taste in many people's mouths.

Number two
AEW Fight Forever
I was really excited when I heard there was an AEW wrestling game coming. I was even more excited when I heard that Kenny Omega would be one of the lead testers. What we got was a steaming pile of crap, with tons of lag, graphical glitches, and overall terrible gameplay. I had extremely high hopes for this but whether we're talking about on the Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch, this game needs to go back to developmental.

Number one
Sony PlayStation Portal
If you had asked most Sony fans at the beginning of the year if they would be excited at a new PlayStation handheld, most would have replied yes. What most people probably would not have wanted is what the PlayStation Portal wound up being, a remote play handheld that has no native onboard storage or games. It wouldn't be so bad if the remote play service actually worked halfway decently. The hardware is significantly held back by the quality of the backbone service running underneath, and for some users, the portal has been absolutely unplayable.
