Why was this on the other anticipated list?
I’m still holding out hope for Pokemon Legends and maybe Marvel midnight Suns but the rest definitely don’t care about them
Splatoon 3. This list is poorly written. I doubt it’s going to suck.
Didn’t saints row get moved back? Last time I was on playstation it was listed for late 2022 instead of March
I’m not looking forward to any of these games.
I didn’t realise Wonderlands and Splatoon 3 was getting hate.
i am looking forword to wanderlands
@Animal Hotline YEP, get ready a for a bunch of shitty lists like this coming in the future.
They aren’t. Most of this list isn’t the hate they’re claiming.
WatchMojo just realized that since people can’t see the Dislike count, they can flood their channel with clickbait videos claiming any old bullshit with absolutely zero consequence.
I thought people would hate Wonderlands because of how far 2K has fallen
I didn’t hear anyone talking bad about Splatoon 3, despite my most hyped game of ’22 (except a few trolls)
I can totally understand why some people are skeptical about game releases considering how gamers have been burned with games (Fallout 76 & Cyberpunk for example) I want to give developers the benefit of the doubt. However there have been some games that make me really want to question game developers
“The rage against starfield is questionable”, much like a lot of entries on this list. Ya got me WatchMojo, clickbait worked
@Alyssin Williams Sounds like they are enjoying the fact dislikes are hidden and not showing how shitty some of their lists are.
@AdBlock Every1 but I 100% agree with that..
@Kah P WWE 2k22 also has distrust in the game after 2k20
@Kah P it sounds more and more like this WatchMojo list should be high up on the ‘this list is really shitty’ chart
I’m willing to give Pokemon Legends: Arceus a go.
Grand Theft Auto 5 is starting to age really badly now. A lesson to be learned for those that milk a game.
i don’t blame ppl for starting to hate the game its been there since 2013 and they haven’t given any info on the sequel
Fucking whales, burning cash on the damn game. Gta 6 should at least be teased. Come on!
Where´s GTA 6, Rockstar ?
I’m actually really forward (if you can’t tell by my name) to the Legend Of Arceus, I just appreciate the fact they are taking a different direction with the games, if it doesn’t work out the developers will just go back to the tried and loved idea of Pokemon, but if it does work out then it’s a win for the developers and a win for the consumer 🤷♂️ at least they are pushing the boat out compared to longer running franchises 🤷♂️
People just like to find things to complain about
My most anticipated games (keeping in mind I havent really followed gaming news early summer) so far at least are total war warhammer 3, my time at sandrock, starfield (hope bethsoft can hit that target date!), baldurs gate 3 and maybe dwarf fortress (steam version – eta is unknown). expansion for humankind would be nice. I had forgotten that Diablo Immortal was a mobile game, but even if it had been something else, well.. still boycotting activision-blizzard
Pretty sure Pokemon Arceus will be a lot of fun (I rarely am bothered by framerate).
Pretty sure about half of those aren’t worth my money.
At this point in gaming history I’m convinced there will never be a perfect game where everyone enjoys with no hate.
True, even a game as good/perfect as GOD OF WAR 2018 has it’s share of haters
I’m sad that Pokémon Legends: Arceus is on here, but I’m happy Kirby and the Forgotten Land isn’t.
You’re not telling me that Starfield is more hated than Diablo Immortal just because it’s an Xbox exclusive?
@Daniel Ortiz 343 studios, Rare, Bungie, Lionshead, Ensemble, GFWL. Microsoft has ruined so many studios, and continues to buy many more. So, I ask you, is it okay to the gaming environment as a whole to let microsoft take over certain IP’s knowing that they may kill off the studio?
@FullyCharged yes and I’m glad Microsoft is getting greedy and making Bethesda games exclusive
@Jamie Murphy Greed.
There was a reason why Microsoft acquired Bethesta in the first place.
Yes.
Yes I’m looking forward to any of these games this year like Grand Theft Auto 5 and Marvel’s Midnight Suns and Starfield are my favorite anticipated games of 2022 on the PS3 or on the PS4
So excited for Arceus Legends.
Tbh I do agree that the texture of the game wasn’t interesting, bit o don’t really care about it. The only thing that matters to me is the gameplay once I play it.
But hey. I wouldn’t mind if they deleyed the game to improve the texture.
While WWE 2K20 was an abomination, WWE 2K19 was fairly well received, had a great story, and played well. As for WWE 2K22, the recent reveal was also received favourably and the general consensus is one of mild optimism that the time off will yield positive results. Due to this, WWE 2K22 should not be on the list.
Plus it’s nit their fault that wwe keeps releasing so much talent each month aswell
I’m looking forward to Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands.
I’m looking forward to Marvel’s Midnight Sons
I am too but that card mechanic is a downer for sure
Wow. Completely missed the mark on why people were hating on Saints Row.
Given the fact that the current cultural zeitgeist can’t be as offended as we could be back then, there’s a good reason why Saints Row was hated. But it is bringing the best of the Stillwater and Steelport eras, just toned down for a modern audience. (Which sucks if you liked the parody driven tone of the Steelport era.)
I like the quirky parts of the Saints Row games. It feels like I’m back in the early GTA days before Rockstar started taking themselves too seriously.
Watchmojo is a place where one game placed in top ten most anticipated list on previous day is now in the top hated games of 2022 on the next day
It may come as a surprise to you but people have different takes on the upcoming releases which they got this from
