I think Darwinia had to do with evolving computer programs or something so I don't know if that one is terribly misleading.

Braid, you are not making any braids, you are just one guy saving a princess.
Limbo, instead of Limbo, you get the walk in the forrest.
Lone Survivor: You are not alone
Castle Crashers: You crashed only one Castle in the entire game
Serious Sam: The Sam is not serious.

Skyrim - Should be a game where you join the rim job division of the mile high club.

You're some kind of troll or you are really so.. silly, we'll just call it "silly" to jump on free giveaways and not even know what you're in for? You didn't look up any of these games? Are you really so "silly" as to think words and phrases used, often cleverly, to title a piece of media must translate directly into.. nope wait yeah you are just a troll.

All of the Elder Scrolls games pre-Oblivion, the worst offender being Arena. I say this because:
The only thing any of them got right are the areas where they take place.

Actually, this is a legitimate misleading title of the series. I mean, how the hell did they come up with the name for it anyways?

At least for Arena I think i heard that at first they were going to make an arena rpg-ish fighting game but then the game kind of evolved to become nothing close to it. But they still decided to stick with the name.
I think that was how it went, still could just be blabbering into the wind xD

the elder scrolls is a series of games ending with skyrim... so its only natural u dont get to find it till later releases played morrowind oblivion and skyrim never ended morrowind xD so i dont know about that but done my research long ago and that is what i found out maybe what u do in the pre oblivion it to help secure the elder scroll despite u never actually see it

The Binding of Isaac - I wanted to tie up someone called Isaac.
Alien Breed - To be fair, I was adding an "ing" on the end of this one.
Ace of Spaces - This isn't a card game!
Chivalry - Everyone just chops my head off! How un-chivalrous!
Duke Nukem: Forever - I got bored after five minutes. I was promised eternity!
Sanctum - What kind of sanctum is this? There are monsters EVERYWHERE!

Your comment indicates that you believe it was on purpose. But your link proves that the game is absolutely nothing like Mass Effect, indicating that yes, that is a bug in Google's translation software.

I do believe it is a bug, and I was being heavily sarcastic in my reply.
BUT, the finale to the trilogy released and many are comparing the ending of it to Mass Effect 3, so I think it's really funny, though probably just a glitch.

System Shock 2. I thought the game would destroy my computer.

Team Fortress 2. Until I found it was hat fortress 2 (not in a bad way)
Torchlight 2. I thought it was something like a puzzle game about lighting torches -_-

You did get several of them in Allied Assault.
I miss this game...it was the best of the series. If only they'd make it free on Origin like BF1942 or even a remake. Good times.

The infiltration mission was the greatest. I've beaten that game over 8 times but I think I've played that mission alone over 40 times.
MoHAA is just great.

I was discussing it other day with some friends, there are games that call your attention with their names but they are completely misleading.
e.g. I expected "Retrovirus" to be something about infection, epidemy and drug treatment, I expected "Natural Selection" to be some sort of improvement over Spore, I expected "Epigenesis" to be something marvelous since I can't even imagine a game about epigenesis, but what I really saw was... shooter, shooter, shooter! Also "Darwinia" is a RTS that, well, has actually nothing to do with Darwin...
What game names do you people think are totally misleading, have cool words but say nothing about the actual gameplay?
