10 Most BROKEN Video Game Launches Of The Generation

10. Battlefield 4

When you consider how well Battlefield 3 was received, the solution to its sequel should have been easy: "Make it again but better". However, it seems some wires were crossed and the message was translated to "Put out a hollow shell of a game, so broken the only solid part would be the disc it comes on".

To say that it was "a bit of a mess" is an understatement. I mean, how often are games subject to lawsuits for being buggy? No really, that actually happened, as a law firm took action against EA and DICE, claiming misrepresentation of the final product.

The fallout and backlash to Battlefield 4's playable condition caused DICE to halt work on its other upcoming titles to focus on fixing this mess. When a company has to suspend everything else to sort one mess of a launch out, you know it's that bad.

As mentioned in the intro, this did go on to be playable and enjoyable... eventually. But even EA acknowledged this would damage their fanbase's trust. At least they got that bit right.
