In your opinion, what was the worst game you ever played?

[Stammer]

No doubt Final Fantasy XIV. I was super hyped for the game, and after maybe a day of playing the beta I ran over to Gamestop and cancelled my pre-order.

The game wasn't just bad in that it sucked. The game was so bad it hurt me personally. I lost so many friends I had earned solely because that game sucked just so bad. I spent like a year and a half on the Eorzeapedia forums meeting other people who were excited for the game, and in the blink of an eye we all parted ways.

Final Fantasy XIV is so bad, it makes you lose friends!!

I heard Vampire Rain was awful which is too bad because I really wanted it to be good. My worst game has to be Too Human. Ugh, the camera sucked, the fighting sucked everything was just damn bad bad damn damn bad bad...damn.

 

[DesertMummy]

All of the CoD games, with the exception of 4 and 5. All of the Final Fantasy Games, and Fable 3 also sucks huge elephant wiener IMO.

 

[Harker067]

Hard to say ... I'd have to think about it alot.... Kabuki warriors is probably near the top....

 

[Vibhor]

Meh. I actually really like mediocre games. In fact I fucking love them. The only games I hate are the ones which are perfect. So my award for the worst game ever goes to God of war series and POP:SOT.

Erm....trolololo?

Nah I am telling the truth. I haven't completed any god of war and only managed to complete Sands of time because it was getting frustrating later on. I seriously cannot stand perfect games. Trespasser is probably somewhere on my top 100 list of games with daikatana close by.

 

[witheringsanity]

wow all you people making me feel old with those answers, did none of you own an nes?
anyway, i'll put a few gag-worthies that i've played (i actually owned all of these)

Fester's Quest - NES
Day Dreamin' Davey - NES
The Adventures of Bayou Billy - NES
Chronicles of the Sword - PSX

 

[CrashBang]

I donno if it's the worst I've ever played but Final Fantasy XIII was definitely the most disappointing. What a giant waste of time. Dragon Age 2 is a close second as well. Oh, and Condemned 2. The first is one of my favourite games and then pfweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwww...... CRASH!!

 

[A Weary Exile]

Operation Flashpoint:
Dragon rising

That game... it... I can't...

the only word I can use to describe it is; Broken.

Gah, took my answer.

I bought it for two dollars on a Steam sale and I actually regret it. I thought it'd be an awesome military sim with slow-paced action that rewards patience and planning, but really it's just boring and frustrating.

 

[Karma168]

Really horrible game called Vampire Rain. Was just plain awful; bad story, bad graphics, bad mechanics, you name it this game did it wrong.

 

[Rooster893]

Robodemons for the NES. Words cannot describe. Go look it up on youtube.

I looked it up, and all I have to say is

WOBODWEMONS

 

[Rooster893]

Drake of the 99 Dragons.

What a fucking trainwreck!

 

[remnant_phoenix]

Too Human.

...do I really have to elaborate?

 

[Retronana]

I don't make a habit of playing bad games, but the game I disliked the most would be X3: Terran Conflict. Probably because I had no clue what to do, how to control it or what anything meant. The enclosed novel of a manual was no help either. I got stuck in a trading screen 30 minutes in because it wouldn't tell me how to buy anything, how much anything cost, how much money I had and, most importantly, how to exit the trading screen. It's a shame, too, it came in such a lovely box.

Yeah that's exactly how I felt when I first played it, but now I have nearly 300 hours, the first 10 being an immense struggle.

Worst game I've payed for and played is Too Human, which was an absolute mess. I also aquired the classic Big Rigs for the PC and though it was technically worse than too human...Big Rigs has comedy value in how bad it is. Hence why it's better than too human.

 

[Sikratua]

I'm going to say Bushido Blade for the PS1. While it's not a bad game, on a technical level, it commits a far worse crime. Bushido Blade is boring. I love bqad games, because they're fun to riff on sometimes. But, I can't even riff on Bushido Blade. There is no fun to be had with this game, and I'm glad that it's more or less forgotten.

 

[Skoldpadda]

I tend to, you know, not play games that I know are going to be bad (because bad games just aren't enjoyable in the way bad movies can be), so the worst ones I've played will probably merely have been disappointing to most.

But those are

- Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Dear God, that thing annoyed the shit out of me. Repetitive as hell, the swordplay rapes your touch-screen, and it actually makes you yell into the microphone to solve some puzzles which is just extremely embarrassing. I love Zelda, I don't mind that they keep pulling the same trick over and over, I've loved that trick since I was a kid. And this game proves that they should stick to the old tricks, because the new ones suck.

- That newest Turok game. The blandest experience ever, and that minigame where you shrug off raptors was both irritating and ridiculous. A great premise that was peed and shat upon by developers who seem to hate fun, or something. One of those things where you wonder how anyone can possibly fuck it up.

- The Force Unleashed. Yes, the first one. I was shocked and appalled, and I've avoided the sequel like the plague, since apparently it's even worse. The camera and targeting are atrocious, and I found the game unplayable because of it.

- Dungeon Siege, the first. It plays itself. It's a repetitive, endlessly padded out hack-and-slasher that plays itself, requiring very little input from the player. It is boring beyond belief.

Superman for the N64.... dear god

 

[AWDMANOUT]

Had to look up what it was called. This. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digimon_World_4]

Safe to say as a kid inviting my best friend over to play the new game I got, we were both quite dissatisfied and enraged at the stupidity and unplayability of the whole thing.

 

[spikeyjoey]

Game called NiteKlub...

all the npcs are poorly rendered and have terrible voice acting (especially the security)..

you have to buy drinks to increase your "fun level", but you have to go to a seperate area for that, and the loading times are atrocious..

that and you have to pay 10 euro everytime you want to go online!! ridiculous

for some reason, the servers are always packed though.. makes my cpu overheat after about half an hour
