Infinite Undiscovery for the fail. If you're going to make up words, at least make it relevant to the story.
This applies to many jrpgs 'dirge of cerebus' wtf
A dirge is a generally mornful tune/song. Cerberus is the name of a mythical three headed hound that stands guard at the gates of the underworld to keep the dead from escaping to the land of the living. Thus, the title simply means "Mournful song of the guardian of hell". One can readily imagine that such a guardian has much to regret throughout the endless existance.

Just imagine that you are charged with eternally standing watch at this black gate. Your task is to thanklessly protect the living from the dead. Anyone that pays any attention to your stalwart fulfillment of your duty is dead and thus they resent you. Thus you stand as an eternal guarding, never thanked by those whom you protect, eternally hated by those your imprison. I imagine such an existance is worthy of mourning.

Halo. Dumb name. Yeah, I went there.
ooohhhh. Edgy AND Original!! How Clever of you!*
*post may contain sarcasm

Honestly I think that Metal Gear Solid and Donkey Kong are really odd names. I Like the Donkey Kong Country series but really, DONKEY Kong?
ooh edgy AND original indeed

try that attitude in the real world, and you will meet great success in life

anyway on topic...lolll
I never understood "DONKEY Kong"...it seems silly but I guess when you're a giant gorilla throwing barrels no one's gonna say anything about it

honestly many titles these days I don't think are by any definition outright BAD (if anything, adjectives such as tacky, generic, silly, egregious, pompous, oxidizing...are more appropriate)

waiiit has anyone discussed any of the "best" game names yet? guess society tends to jump for the negative haha

I suspect the worst name is probably "Holy Invasion Of Privacy, Badman! What Did I Do To Deserve This?". Hard to top that.

...you know what? That's one of the best names ever. But so are these:

Hot-Blooded Tough Guy Kunio.You may know it in North America as a variety of names, like Nintendo World Cup or Crash and the Boys' Street Challenge or most notably River City Ransom.

or even better: Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble. There's a game for the PSP that totally rules the school.
