Conker's Bad Fur Day. I mean, come on, it sounds like some asinine edutainment freebie for ages 3-5.

Could someone explain to me why Half-life is named so?
Alright... because life in that time has degenerated into half of what it used to be, because of the cybernetic slavery, reproduction suppression, and various other... crimes. That's why they wear the half life signs on themselves, because they are half of what they used to be. NEXT!
Close, but it's also a scientific term for the rate of deterioration of radioactivity or something to that (I'm not a science guy), so I think it's referring to the rate of deterioration of mankind. Gordon Freeman has twice as much health as normal with his shields, and he, along with many of the other good guys, is a scientist. It all makes sense in the context. As for why the Resistance uses the Lambda symbol, I'm not sure, maybe your theory is right.

The Greek letter Lambda is used in physics to denote half-life, which is the rate of decay of radioactive isotopes. That's why they use it in the game.

What did Splinter Cell have to do with the games? I mean shouldn't they have been called "Sneaky white guy in a black suit?"

Oh yeah and Halo should have been called Shooty guy in power armour...

Well, it's more of a tool than a game, but I think Touch DIC for the DS takes the cake. As does If It Moves, Shoot It! I guess they'll have to share it...

EDIT: Wait, I have more!

No, that is a list of the greatest game titles ever conceived by man. The thread is supposed to be for the worst game titles.

left 4 dead, why would you do that to the english language!?
also mass effect, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
EXACTLY. It's "Left For Dead", or, if you've been reading the forums lately, "Left For Head" or "Left For Anal", which isn't quite as funny.

Crysis. I mean how fucking lame is that. Crytek just had to shoehorn their name in there somehow, just for added shitty gimmick points.

And S.T.A.L.K.E.R. I mean it's not exactly a friendly name to begin with, then that flaky ************ on the box art really seals the deal of weirdness...

"Shooty guy in power armour" was OK but I preferred "Macho guy with glowing armour that makes it look like he has tits"
I also enjoyed "Mute bearded guy with glasses and a bright orange chemical suit"
It would make so much more sense for game developers to name their games like this.
