Too early for the 2004 edition of this thread? 
THUG2 is definately getting lukewarm reviews. Unless they change the courses to some absurd layout, I'm thinking this series has definately played itself out.
But I'd have to say the most disappointing game for me this year is definately DRIV3R.
Oh my god is this game a disappointment.....is it the moon-gravity that seems to plague your car (but never any of the computer controlled ones)??? Is it the just-plain Godawful running around portions of the game......or...is it the fact that Reflections chose to use what APPEARS to be the lowest resolution available on the PS2??? Probably so they could obtain those fancy lighting effects on the vehicles...................this game, in its night scenes, looks granier and dithered worse than a PS1 game would...!!!
It took me 22 tries just to beat the first mission, where you gotta chase the guy in the red firebird out of the parking lot.....oh brother talk about frustration.
But...you know....thast one of the few games I was looking forward to....
PSI-OPS was a definate surprise, I dig it.........that Terminator Redemption game is in a similar vein, and also not bad. NOt game of th eyear, but not bad either.
