Default Which sequel of 2011 is most likely to disappoint?

Take your pick:
Infamous 2
Uncharted 3
Mass Effect 3
Resistance 3
Batman: Arkham City
FEAR 3
Deus Ex Revolution (not technically a sequel)
Duke Nukem Forever
Battlefield 3
Next Call of Duty Game
Alice: Madness Returns
Prey 2 (dunno if this a 2011 game)
Just for fun: Gears of War 3 (mods can remove this)


The games that I think will least likely to disappoint are: Mass Effect 3 and Uncharted 3. My only concern about Uncharted 3 is that it will be less good than Uncharted 2.

My concern about Mass Effect 3 is simply that it will not be able to meet the massive expectations that come with it in terms of importing characters from previous games.

Duke Nukem Forever and Fear 3 are what I feel are most likely to disappoint.
Alice Madness Returns is also a game that I have low expectations for since the developer does not have a great track record in recent years (Bad Day in LA, anyone?).

My general concern with some of these sequels is that they will suffer from what I call "Halo 2 syndrome" in that they will do everything to try to make the game bigger and better, expand the story with too much drama but lose some of the heart of the game that preceded it. I feel that Dead Space 2, and Resistance 2 are recent examples of this.

What are your thoughts?
