Well BioShock 3(aka BioShock Infinite(great game. Love it. Could pop it in any day.). was cancelled three times before it was finally released under Infinite and many people thought that game would bomb because it wasn't in Rapture, the protagonist could talk and the style of the game was so different from 1 and 2.

L.A. Noire was amazing. The graphics were great the story was fine the characters were...bland and really...boring. The game is really underrated.

Max Payne 3, like Hitman Aboslution and Duke Nukem Forever was just in developmental hell for far too long. The fans of the series just gave up and all the games(except Hitman) were declared failures. However, I found the first two rather enjoyable(Duke Nukem can burn.)

RDR was so far ahead of it's time, it's graphics are still superior to even some games released this year. The story was outstanding, the characters were memorable, the side stories were just...hilarious or engaging. The only real problem for me was Jack Marston. He annoyed me and I felt he was there to just take up space.
