Maybe one of the most dissapointing, but worst?
Obviously it's better than some bargain bin shovelware but as far as anticipated AAA titles go, the PC release of Deus Ex 2 was absolutely abysmal. You couldn't change the key settings because the config file was set read-only and you couldn't aim because some "mouselag" variable (why would such a variable even exist?) made all your movements register about a half second later. It was literally as if they changed the "xbox=1" variable to 0 and released the PC version with no playtesting whatsoever.

Out of the box, it was the worst PC game I had ever bought. All PC games need patches of course, but I can't think of any other occasion where the initial retail version of a game was completely unplayable.
