Not as bad as fallout new vegas's was... at least they extended the game with dlc in fallout 3.
For me it would have to be Zelda Twilight Princess, truely link will never get laid.
Personally I believe that gannon is just a physical manifestation of Links sexual frustration, similar to pyramid head in silent hill only with less mannequin rape.
How was Fallout New Vegas's ending bad? It showed you how all of your actions affected everything. That's way better than Vanilla Fallout 3 if you ask me.
May the the blessings of His Grace the Emperor tumble down upon you like a golden fog. (Only a VERY select few will get this reference. And it's not from 40k. )

How was New Vegas' ending bad? There was a huge battle that the entire game had been leading up to, a proper final boss fight equivalent (unlike Fallout 3 where the game played itself for you, then you could accidentally kill Colonel Autumn and it wouldn't make a difference) and all your actions were clearly shown in the wasteland. Are you just mad because the game actually ends with a satisfying conclusion? If you really want to you can just make a save right before the Dam (It actually does this for you!) and faff around forever if you want.
On FNV DLC: I thought the DLC did a great job of filling in a side story for the Courier. That story being Ulysses.
You know from Jonhston Nash in Primm that you are not the first "Courier 6" and that this guy is not a fan of you.....And that's it without DLCs. Before the Sierra Mardre DLC, that pissed me off. Felt like a whole questline was just torn from the game.
Dead money, while also tying up the Brotherhood of Steel storyline with the Death(or trapping) of Elijah, Foreshadows the event where the two couriers would meet.
Honest Hearts gives you Joshua Graham's side of the Story from when He was Legion and how it effected him. You learn that the other courier is/was Legion, and a Frumentarius at that. Prolly the weakest of the DLCs unless you just craved Legion backstory. Still awesome, but the weakest of the three.
Old World Blues fills in more details about the Events at Big MT involving Elijah, "The Courier with the Old World Flag on his back" and Christine, Gives some background on Cazadores and nightstalkers, Found a way to make Radscorpions EVEN WORSE(then found a way to make the Roboscorpions even worse by making one the size of a Damned Super Mutant Behemoth), and had 7 of the funniest characters to interact with (The Think tank, Mobius and the Courier's Brain).
Lonesome Road, sporting the coolest name of any Fallout DLC, did not disappoint. We now know more about the Courier's history. We learn more about ED-E(the coolest of all FNV Companions) and that final confrontation. That big meeting, when the two couriers would pass along their respective messages, the event that has been hinted at SINCE PRIMM(like at level 3!) before ANY DLC and the event that was actually cut from the original game finally happened. You pass your messages along, and of the two flags, only one remains. The one of the True Courier 6. You then get to decide to nuke Caesar's Legion/NCR/Both or disarm the missiles. The DLC ends, you look in the footlocker outside of the gate to the Lonesome Road, and find a note from Ulysses, telling you to "wear your symbol proudly",referencing the Courier's Duster, which has a logo on the back that changes based on what faction you support the most when you confront him.
Ulysses was an amazing Antagonist and shouldn't have been cut from the original game. The DLCs did him proper justice. They built up to a final climatic battle between an Antagonist and Protagonist (almost put good and bad guy. Forgot for a minute that last week when I played through FNV, I traveled from location to location on a river of the blood of the innocent.)
What did the FO3 DLCs build up to? I survived radiation that everyone said I wouldn't! Time to go blow up an oil rig stop those nasty enclave guys...Whose house I collapsed two weeks ago. And whose robot boss a killed two weeks ago.....and whose human boss I killed.....you guessed it two weeks ago. While Fallout 3's ending wasn't great, I preferred it to Broken Steel.
Black Ops: After you destroy the Super-Extra-Secret Communist Underwater Nuclear Base of Doom that somehow the Soviets had managed to build off the coast of Cuba without no-one noticing, you emerge to see whole fleets of warships and aircraft doing aerobactics for no reason.
Halo ODST: That's what we needed, another Warthog Run.
