The Simpsons hit and run. Who would have known that it was all about cars?
I loved that game! Not a good story, but it was fun!

Stupidest. Hmph. Mass Effect. Yes, I'll say it. Too much reading. Plus, because I live in an "O'Reiley" household, I FOORCED myself to stop playing it after THAT controversy. Syupid, because it was over something in most video games/ TV/ Movies today: SEX.

Barney's Hide and Go Seek. I was helping a small girl who was too stupid to figure it out on her own, I hated that girl but the ***** babysitting me threatened me with something, I don't remember what I was like 11, so I helped her which despite my hatred of the little twat I did. I hated that girl too, I would say mean and horrible things to her, most of which were true, in order for me to get her to leave me alone, for example sometimes spiders crawl into your mouth, it's one of the reasons you may have morning breath.

because a title like "hit and run" could mean anything...or maybe I just made myself look like a complete idiot for not realizing you're being sarcastic, but ether way...

anyway, My pick is saints row. Nothing is worse than a GTA clone based soley on violence (and no, that's not a contradiction, at least GTA has a reasonable storyline)

Quest 64. What a waste that was.
Hm... wasn't a complete waste. I admit I only played the game for an hour but I liked costom magic abliity and whatnot. Not to mention recently I had a sudden craving for the game but haven't been able to find it (doy) I think where I live the only N64 game you can still rent is Zelda Majora's Mask. I'll have tbe buy the thing off e-bay just to get a one hour crave play in. >.<

*cough*Halo 2*cough*
but honestly, Cooking Mama Cook Off.
i actually can't talk about it right now...
*cries in corner*
i hear shatnershaman coming for u.
nope it's my turn to defend halo

with a game so hyped as the halo series no mater the quality of the game it is impossible to live up to the hype. but I find with games like this that the only people who are disappointed are those who want to be and it seems that now making fun of halo is the "cool" thing to do because it makes you different... or he disliked the game for legitimate reasons ( I like to give people the benefit of the doubt)
What "I have a God complex" said.

My game is a Japanese Pokemon where you called them to fight for you and they could all talk.

My pick would have to be resident evil umbrella chronicles it kinda just made a mockery of all the other games but it also had a difficulty curve of a brick wall ...it starts easy then it puts you in some boss fight that are freaking impossible

For the lack of better ideas, the Trial of the recent XBLA Game "Sea Life Safari" is pretty stupid. Throwing Trash at animals make them pose for your Photos? Riiiight...

A certain little game on newgrounds about the Virginia Tech shootings.
By merely stating that you've played such a game, you fill me with disgust. No offense.

Flash games can often be quite clever and reach levels of stylishness and originality that would put most big-budget game developer to shame (see 'The Fancy Pants Adventures'). Then you've got all the mindless violence that's just a short trip to Newgrounds away. Ew.

However, in terms of games I've actually played, I'd have to go with Runescape. Try fishing, my friend. Then you can fish all day. And all night. Fish. Fish FOREVER!

No thank you.

Pokemon snap. What the hell, it's the same thing. Professor Oak (who should really be arrested for child labour) calls up some other kid to take pictures of pokemon cause he's too lazy or stupid to do it himself. Then you go around on a track trying to take pictures.

It's like.. uh... why the hell would I be on a track, and why wouldn't I have the option of stopping the vehicle I'm riding on?

But anyways, the whole premise was just stupid, but then again we are talking about pokemon here. I mean, come on. Every game starts off with a professor who's the leading expert in his field, but needs some kids to go out and complete his pokedex or whatever for him.

If I was the kid, I'd be like "Pay me, asshole. And in money, not in pokemon."

Okay now that I think REALLY HARD about it I can come up with one other game I've played that was pretty damned stupid. I know I was very childish for playing it at all in the first place, but Hey You Pikachu. Yea, the bad ass tomboy in me cringes when I remind myself I played that game... and how annoying it got yelling into the microphone hours after hours trying to get the damned yellow rat to do what I wanted it to do. >.<

I think a few people have gotten 'dumbest' as in silly and 'worest' games mixed up. Or am I mistaken for what the OP originally intened with the thread.

As for dumbest, I'd say Conker. Loads of fun but it was so silly. A squirel pissed off at the world becomes king by fighting through cavemen on surfboards, rock bouncers, cows with a digestive problem, and alien, nazi teddy bears. The list is endless. No real thinking required, just pissing and crapping on the enemy. Good fun.

I have yet to find any game with voice recognition where it can recognize voice.

Two come to mind.

Whiplash was just awful. I can't remember any specific reasons why, it just was. Perhaps it was repetitive dialogue, perhaps it was the lack of beta-testing, I don't know. It just sucked.

Crash: Twinsanity also comes to mind in that it took the standard Crash formula, and ripped it to shreds. It's not the way you successfully reinvent a series.

We need more games like that. (Take the hint Rare and Micro$oft)

Blue Dragon made me sick to my stomach-- the story was straight out of a kid's cartoon (actually I think they have a Blue Dragon cartoon now...) and the voice acting made me want to kill myself. It was one of those games that actually had me saying: were they -serious- when they released this?

My little brother owns a Gamecube, and he has that game... i forgot the name.
Every Level is built like a giant Pinball machine, but filled with landscape, trees, water and stuff. There are hordes of little enemy soldiers that run down from the top of the screen. At the bottom, you have your own soldiers. And like in a Pinball machine, you can shoot a giant around ball and kill those soldiers. And your own soldiers. But to prevent your own men from being smashed, and thats the "greates" part of the game, you shout commands into a little microphone. Like, Down! Down! Left! Forward!!
Playing that, he looks even dumber than anyone playing Wii.
On top of that, the game is ridiculously hard.

You're talking about Odama-- which is a FATASTIC game, in my opinion. A true gem.
