13 Massively Hyped Upcoming Video Games That Will Totally Disappoint

8. Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite

Release Date: September 19

The Hype: The latest entry into the revered beat 'em up franchise attempts to broaden the series' appeal with "refined" new gameplay mechanics and a cinematic story mode that sees Marvel and Capcom's finest teaming up to take down the villainous Ultron Sigma, a fusion of Marvel's Ultron and Mega Man's Sigma (yes, really).

Why It'll Disappoint: As eagerly as fans will probably buy this regardless, the demo released last month was...not good, and assuming it's probably a pretty decent indication of the game's shape at this point, it's likely to be torn apart for its underwhelming graphics and overly simplified gameplay.

In short, the hardcore crowd will hate it, and mixed reviews will probably deter more casual potential players, so it will effectively please nobody.
