The worst games you ever played

Post Reply New Topic

Also, any movie- or tv-to-game adaptation on the SNES... I'm looking at stuff like Star Trek TNG and the Hunt for Red October in particular...

my worst game by far was over-g fighters on the 360, it was a horrible game that was trying to be the next ace combat

They said it technically isn't even a game since the other trucks sit there at the starting line the whole time and don't race.

Kabuki for the first Xbox was pretty awful. I had to test that thing, it really had no redeaming qualities whatsoever. It was one of those games that just made you cry out "why!".

Xxs: ( I think that was what it was called) The monsters and people looked like they were gliding around when they were walking, and the sound effeccts sucked. But the cutscenes were nice.

Dino Crisis 3: From playing the demo and reading the reviews of the game, I know that one of the things that is seriously wrong with it is the camera. The Camera. Is .Just. Awful. I have tried to jump to places or backtrack in the game, and the camera would move to corners and would move behind me, and it could make it hard to accurately place a jump or to see enemies. Plus enemies tended to respawn, and that feature I hated as I often had to backtrack to get something, and I would have to kill all the dinos all over again in that area.

Turok 2: Evolution: An alright game if it didn't have the flying levels. The flying levels are HARD, and extremely frustrating. I would be flying on the Pteranadon, and if I flew too close to the sky's "ceiling" or too close to the walls, I would get pulled into them and die. Plus the animation of the animals and some of the enemies is crappy.

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy: Bad animation and merely ok story. The feature to choose your species is cool, but I wished they could have done more with it. Plus the facial animation on the NPCs is poor, as they look like computer renditions of ventriliquist dummy faces. And also the animation when they move and fight is really jerky, sometimes when they are walking backwards the animation will "stutter."

Star Wars KotOR 2: The Sith Lords: This is only mentioned because of the obscene amount of bugs, truncated ending, and the underdeveloped characters and boss enemies. Other then that it is good.

Alrighty... lemme see here... in no particular order...


~ Beware the Ultimate Evil of Warlock (Megadrive)
I have no idea why my mother made me buy that game. It was so bad that I never trusted my mother on ANY matter again for the rest of time. I'm deadly serious.


~ Splinter Cell (XBox)
Overhyped. Underuseful. Boring, crawling and.... the moment I played it, I went on for about 15 minutes of suffering before boxing it and taking it back to the shop to trade in.


~ Ultima : Ascension (PC)
I don't know. I can't remember how we ended up with such a terrible game, but I knew within the first five minutes of playing it that I couldn't tolerate the controls, nor the apparent plot, nor anything about it. It was terrible on an epic scale.


~ Goldeneye (N64)
I have enacted dire retribution (usually involving burning of property) on people for just admitting to liking this game.... and a lot of idiots do. I enact a lot of retribution. It was a shite, overhyped game. FPS-wise, I'd rather play Doom... and I didn't much like Doom even. I'd DEFINITELY rather play Quake. The weapons were clumsy, the graphics weren't all that impressive, the gameplay was unnecessarily asinine... and the whole thing was PUBLICALLY BUTTRAPED TO HELL AND BACK. I really hate overhyped games.
But Goldeneye somehow beating Panzer Dragoon Saga (the greatest game ever made) in the first round of that damnable GameFAQs popularity contest was the straw that broke the camel's back. Some day, when I get the resources together... aside from completely destroying S*ny Computer Entertainment, I plan on eradicating ALL copies of this game from the face of the Earth.


~ Dead or Alive IV (XBox 360)
The only game disc I have ever actually snapped in two out of pure frustration... primarily because I couldn't get ANYWHERE in the game without relying soley on fluke. The characters spawn too close together, the combos are practically unbreakable once they get going, it takes very little to get beaten, and furthermore.... even on the easiest difficulty setting, the AI is totally merciless. THAT and in the training mode, one of those ninja guys had a combo move that was actually impossible to perform.
Well... now it is gone, and I never unlocked ANY achievements for it, and cannot remove the record of having played it from my console... so its name is lingering there as a blight upon my console.

That Cabela's game for the 360 (it's my brother's). It absolutely SUCKED. I can't think of a real redeeming quality of the game.

...Oh, I think I neglected to mention Harvest Moon DS. Not because it's BAD. It's fun, but then you get glitches that ruin your many hours/days of progress. Anyone agree?

Crimson Skies, for sheer bugginess. You played a red fighter plane. It should have been sooooo cool. The base gameplay was extremely fun.

BUT YOU COULDN'T GET PAST A SINGLE LEVEL WITHOUT THE DAMN THING CRASHING.

Seriously. I remember that I played the demo and liked it and bought the game and couldn't get past the level I'd beaten several times in the demo because the full game was buggier than the demo and kept crashing over and over and over again. And apparently I read that the bugs got worse after that. Sheesh!

yoshi's cookiewas a rip off load of rubbish back in the 90's.


let's line up cookies! what FUN!! ! not......

ET for Atari was the worst game I ever played.... ever. There was another game for Atari, that was dull as heck, but I can't remember the name. If you ever played this version of ET, you would know why you look everywhere, dying to eventualy get on with the game but then you don't. How you finish it is beyond me! All I managed to do in ET was grab pebbles, and run around. And, the human character grabbing the items was SO annoying. The whole game was rediculess.
