I think there was a thread similar to this not so long ago.
Anyway the problem with answering this question is that you generally don't play terrible games for long. So they aren't really memorable. I've probably played a good few bad games but I honestly can't think of any truly terrible at the moment.
My most hated game is Ninja Gaiden Sigma, but that's not really answering the question.

Revolution X. It was an arcade shooter that was ported to the SNES. Being a sucker for arcade shooters I played the game for quite some time. Looking back I realize just how silly the game was:
1) The main characters are saving the world from the New World Order, who begin their takeover of the world by kidnapping aerosmith at a concert the player is watching.
2) Apparently the player's qualifications for being world saviors include the fact that they are giant Aerosmith fans AND they happened to go to concerts armed to the teeth.
3) When it comes to firepower, your usual weapon is a machine gun. For a special weapon you shoot CD's (yes, compact discs) at your enemies.
4) The NWO seems to possess an endless supply of grunts dressed in yellow rain slickers wearing gas masks
5) Said grunts have only a handful of frames of animation: Grunt running (two frames), grunt not caring when you spray hundreds of bullets into his groin and finally grunt finally succumbing to the bullet storm to the crotch.
6) Special boss fights include fighting sentient toxic waste in a sewer.
I'm sure there is more that I've blocked from my memory. What really gets to me is just how much I played the game when it was clearly awful and derivative.
Also, state of emergency. When I first picked up the game it was a complete blast to play. Unfortunately, the moment chucking an XBox into a crowd or beating someone with a trash can gets old the game grows stale and boring. It's basically the same mission over and over, with progressively more impossible time limits and difficulty imposed on the player.

Ninjabread Man.
I played it for less than 5 minutes (the training stage) and was literally 25% through the game.

I have a contender for that title:Wasder said:Big Rigsff the road racing. Widely acknowledged as the worst game of all time.
"D" for PS1. I know I've posted about this before on other threads so I won't go into all the reasons again here, but this game is absolutely craptastic.
I try to avoid games I know are going to be bad but I did once download Big Rigs just to see what the fuss was all about.
I'm usually pretty careful when it comes to selecting games to purchase. But my biggest stumble was buying The Bouncer for my shiny new PS2. What a pantsload that game was.
My father installed "Big Mother Truckers" on my computer a few years back as a joke. After getting rid of that piece of garbage I defragged my harddrive twice to make sure it was gone.
