All the Tony Hawk games beside Tony Hawk 3 and 4 for the Gamecube. Those two are awesome, and the others suck in comparison.

I've played alot of bad games, so I'll just name one.

Golden Axe: Beast Rider
This game sucks. The Golden Axe game for the the Sega Genesis is just fun old-school arcade action. It's just so great. It's one of the best Genesis games of all time but this game is such a disappointment. The first thing bad is the controls. It's just awful. You have to get used to some of the worst controls of video game history! You have to like roll out of the way and press right or left trigger and it just blows. It's not just an option. It's just REQUIRED. It took me like 30 minutes to get through the tutorial. The chick in the game is good looking but you can't play as the dwarf or the guy in his underwear with the sword. I was really looking forward to playing as the dwarf, because he was my favorite from the Genesis. Nope. I don't even if you can play as him later in the game, because I stopped at the end of the first level, thankfully I wasn't the one who rented it, it was my friend who rented it. I felt sorry for him. He loved it, but in the inside I could tell he hated it.

Mario sunhine (Gamecube). Would've been a nice boss game in Mario Party, but a whole game with it? 8O

The Sims 2: Pets (GBA): My first and only - and never again- attempt of playing a Sims game. Who the bleep faint that easily due to not eating, going to the bathroom or taking a shower for a few hours?? I think that character needs to see a doctor. What an idiotic game!

Mario Bros (Not SMB 1): I played this after SMB 1 though, so maybe I would've liked it better if I had played them in chronologic order.

I think the Spyro games released after "Year of the dragon" were a let down. Too bad, I loved the more traditional platform style - and the lovely dragon - in the first 3 Spyro games on PS1.

Micro machines (DS): Man, how disappointing. None of the fun from the GB Colour or SNES versions.

Super Mario Land 2 & 3: So far from the fun of SML 1.

I haven't played a lot of bad games... When I pick games, I usually get lucky, and if I can tell from the first level that the game is going to be really bad, I don't play it. I remember two off the top of my head that I did play through...

WoW: Okay, it was fun at first, but it got so tediously boring, even moreso after you hit the max level.

Black and White 2: There were some aspects in this game and from the first game that I really like, but I just didn't like this rendition. I think what turned me off most in this game was that they made it so that you had to TRY to lose. Seriously; it took me forever to get myself to lose on the last level. The other characters weren't in the least bit original (though I could forgive the conscience for that), and the story was really lacking. The gameplay can be rather fun. It just didn't mix well with the rest of the negatives.

Myst. To play the game right the first thing you have to do is go to a bookshelf and pull out these books and read them in the game. I'm sorry but reading a book is not the same as playing a game. :roll:

GTA4 for the PC - Terrible, terrible performance.

Alien vs. Predator Gold Edition - I thought it was a full-fledged expansion to the orignal AVP game; it was just a few new multiplayer levels.

Blacksite: Area 51
Failed across the board for me. :(
And I had good expectations for it after playing Area 51. I know that also got mediocre reviews, but I actually liked it.

The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. This game disappointed me beyond belief; here I was expecting a truly epic and groundbreaking game to the series and instead I got a game that was mediocre at best with clearly no new ideas whatsoever. Twilight Princess was a very dull, been there done that experience for me.

You are definitely in the minority, when it comes to opinions like that. It went beyond my expectations. It was addictive, the storyline was gripping, and the gameplay was beyond awesome. It wasn't groundbreaking, but it was Ocarina of Time evolved. It is still addicting, even after the 25th time you play it. It's just plain fun.

Anything released on a handheld console thhat was also released on all the home consoles.

Please, if you want to buy The Simpsons Game, make it a home console verion! The DS version looks beyond horrid. X[

Well, I finally forced myself through the last few levels of Halo (1) last night, and I think now I dislike it even more than I did before :x

...and now I suppose I'll have to run through the sequel...why do I hate myself so much? :cry:

There's always a few exceptions, though...I've heard one of the Spyro games is actually better on the GBA than it is in 3D.

And...well...I can't really think of anything else off the top of my head. Puzzle Quest, I guess.

the latest alone in the dark. classic case of water temple syndrome :cry: (in this case the stupid things were A ridiculously unfair driving sections and B being forced to wander around the park spending hours looking for roots to destroy with no story proggression.) truly deserves the title "broken masterpiece"
