The game industry wouldn't be what it is today if any single game had not been made as I believe all have had an impact; from the most controversial, the most popular, the most ground breaking - down to the downright awful clones that make up part of the large statistic of "bad games". For that reason no game should ever have not been made.

World of warcraft and not because it was a bad game.
WoW pretty much killed the MMO industry to me by becoming the new standard of MMOs, every devlopper (or publisher maybe) are trying to get the same player base as WoW by making casual-friendly MMOs that are barely a step above playing a Single player RPG with msn open.

The Halo sequels.
- The first game was all right, I admit enjoying it. But fanboys became completely insufferable after that.

Team Fortress 2.
- If you haven't already been playing hundreds of hours a month since the beginning, there's no point in trying anymore. You won't survive more than ten seconds in any match. Ever. Oh, and let's not forget Valve's endless updates, making it bigger, and laggier, and more bloated, and more unbalanced. Every. Time. You. Start. Steam.

Warhammer 40,000.
- It's a complete clusterfuck even by tabletop standards. The only one more crufteriffic was FATAL, which was at least notable for its blatant and lulzy racism.

BioShock
- Overrated piece of shit. Seriously, people, pointing out the flaws in Objectivism is like starving a limbless Ethiopian man--no challenge whatsoever. It's not deep. It's not groundbreaking (System Shock did everything BioShock did first). The name sounds like a venereal disease a woman gets from keeping the same tampon in too long. And I want people to shut the fuck up about it already.

Kingdom Hearts
- DIE. DIE ALREADY. WHY WON'T YOU FUCKING DIE.

The .Hack series.
- It's a long, tedious, boring-as-fuck grindfest with an ugly and obtrusive UI, terrible voice acting, countless dungeons filled with the same 10 species of enemy, and tons of sidequests that don't feel at all rewarding for the amount of time you have to invest in them. So, I must say, Bandai did a great job capturing that MMORPG feel.

Aggressive Inline.
- As a game, it's decent enough--but who actually gives a fuck about inline skating?

Dungeon Lords.
- Complete piece of shit. You die once in the early stages of the game and you might as well just start over, because respawning permanently reduces your stats.

Final Fantasy X
- The gameplay was good. But the story sucked in every possible respect, only one or two characters were even likeable, and the most powerful weapon was a fucking rubber ball. WTF.

Minecraft.
- There's no fucking documentation, there's no tutorial level (and let's not kid ourselves, there's never going to be one). You have to go on the wiki to figure out how to do anything whatsoever. Playing Minecraft is like trying to learn a foreign language by copying the dictionary. And once you die, you'll never find anything you built ever again, unless you put it right next to your spawn point. (Besides that, it's been fully implemented in GMod now, so you might as well just buy that.)

SecondLife.
- Do I even need to say anything here?

Robot Unicorn Attack
- It's the Flash game equivalent of "HEY EVERYONE I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!!!"...and I can't stop playing it once I start ;~;

Your personal belief does not constitute an actual reason for any conclusion.

Basically this, and also their RTS games wouldn't be appealing to the lowest common denominator either (Fuck you for Starcraft 2). Or at least I would hope they wouldn't.
Well, I find it kinda funny when people mention that WoW is so freakishly addictive, (which for most people it is).
The thing is that think about all the stuff which would be ripped out of the gamer community and all the people which wouldn't have been introduced otherwise.
And what game would I wish to banish from the memories of all and from time it self?
Pac man of course!

I would definitely say none.
But if I had to choose I would say...

Viva Pinata. That game was a bloodbath.

Why play Army of 2 when you can play Gears of War.
its for those who do not own an Xbox 360, like Darksiders is for people who dont own a Wii or PS3 or Castlevania for those who cant play God of War

thats what its for

anyways, i think Turok (for the seventh-generation consoles) should not have been made

A game soooo fucking bad I felt insulted by its unskippable credits.
awww, not Legendary!

I got that game spontaneously one day and actually liked it, although I am probably the on-

nope, I'm gonna say no more of that sentence :)

im surprised nobody has said this, but rapelay?
actually, Rapelay is just your average 3D hentai game, it's just that the japanese porn culture is pretty big reliant on rape and shit

the game was meant to just stay japan only, it was some little fuck who torrent'd it and flicked the shit

also, the name is just a pun for Replay

also, another reply for all those silly people who think that BIG games which made loads of money and LOTS of people enjoy shouldn't have been made, just because they themselves dislike it...

Probably CoD: Modern Warfare 1 and 2. God forbid if you should say anything bad about it when its fanboys are around. You'll end up wishing you didn't have ears.
You just had to be "that guy"

Say what you will, but COD4 revamped the standard of FPS's in 2007.
I actually really enjoyed CoD4, its just that you can't seem to say anything bad about it and MW2 around some people without being burned at the stake.
Well that's where I call bull shit. Modern Warfare 2 is the most bashed game out there. It's gotten to the point of where people are just sick of hearing about it being bashed.

I grew up gaming Sonic the Hedgehog. Well. I don't touch the franchise anymore. Not since fucking Sonic Riders. Terrible game.Couldn't stand that stupid thing -- even being an avid Sonic fan at the time I couldn't get through more than an hour of game play. Also. I don't understand WHY THE HELL Sonic needs to ride on some hoover board if he's as fast as the speed of sound. Found it kind of pointless.

I can't even imagine how god awful Sonic Unleashed is. I mean... what's up with all the gimmicks. I feel like Sega is getting kind of desperate or something. ;m; OH. And Shadow the Hedgehog is a pretty awful game -- though I did play all the way through because I was kind of a fangirl of his at the time.

However, once I had played Shadow the Hedgehog I was very much over the series. I guess they wanted Sonic games to be more edgy -- but giving Shadow a gun and a motorcycle that moves as slow as fuck doesn't really play off as edgy to me so much as stupid. The random cuss words thrown into the slew of corny dialogue didn't really help much either.

Enh. I hate to bash on my childhood like that but I'm kind of mad at what they did to it. >n> Sorry Sega~ I really did love you guys. (But you just had to go and sell your soul to Nintendo, huh?)

QFE, esp the SC2 part. I never played WoW, but I have seen the horrors it can do to a person, particularly teenagers.

I'm not exactly following what the OP is looking for.. is it games that are so addictive that they should never have been made, or games that are so bad they're a disgrace and don't deserve to exist?

Anyway, I just want to add Fallout3 to the list. What a fucking sacrilege.
Fallout 3? Bad? Could I get some of what your smoking, I gotta a party to go to.

As for games that should not have been made, well I got quite a list.
Modern Warfare 2 (Flame all you want, I don't care)
Too Human
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising
Stormrise
Modern Warfare 2
Halo: Reach
Halo Wars
Borderlands
Crackdown 2
Modern Warfare 2
Kane and Lynch 2
World of Warcraft
Maple Story
Runescape
Modern Warfare 2
Lord of the Rings Conquest
Fracture
Viva Pinata Party Animals
Newest Turok
All the Final Fantasys
No More Heros
Red Dead Redemption
Gears of War (Though I love Gears 2.)
Bioshock 2 (The first was good)
Everything past Halo: Combat Evolved
Fallout: New Vegas woulda worked better as an addon
Rainbow Six: Vegas 1&2
Modern Warfare 2
ModernWarfare 2
MODERN WARFARE 2!!!

Probably more, I'll edit it if I think of something.
