10 Video Games That Wasted Brilliant Concepts

How they messed up a ghost detective trying to solve his own murder while dealing with demons is the real mystery here, as somehow Square Enix found a way.

Having an absolutely stellar idea, Murdered: Soul Suspect just doesn't do as much with the premise as it could have. Being able to walk through walls for clues and possess people for interrogations is a phenomenal idea, but in a game like this, the lack of freedom is incredibly obvious.

You can only walk through so many walls as there are places blocked off, there are demon fights to be had that quickly become boring after your third time, and on top of that, it's an incredibly short title with a mystery in zero danger of not being solved.

The only way you don't find out who the killer was is if you turn off the game halfway through, and honestly, no one would blame you.
