Star Ocean 4: the last hope
worst voice acting in any game i have ever played, and i wanted to kill every party member within 5 minutes of encountering them. also the story is pure s**t.
the only reason i even finished it was that if i turned of all the sound in the game it made for an excellent distraction for me to catch up to my podcasts (you know all 20+ hours off them.) since it required about zero attention except during boss fights.

I'd probably say Eternal Sonata as well. As a fan of (J)RPGs and a huge classical music nut (I'm studying music history if that's any indication), I had huge hopes for this game, of which the concept had so much potential. Unfortunately, it had a somewhat entertaining yet broken battle system coupled with a story that wastes hours asking "philosophical" questions in a laughable pretention of depth, and yet goes absolutely nowhere. It tries to be poetic, but comes across as naive.
The entire game felt unfinished, and left me very dissapointed. Pretty much the only thing I liked was the final boss battle, for some reason.
That being said, Eternal Sonata isn't my worse dissapointment. That honour goes to Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life for Gamecube. Never had I anticipated a game so much. I never got to the third chapter (out of six). Again, much potential, but so poorly executed...

I liked Indigo prophecy.....Anyways, probably the great escape for the xbox. If you ever wanna do stealth wrong,look at that game...Lazarus Long said:
Worst game that I actually finished? That would have to be Dungeon Lords. A horribly done 3rd person action-RPG for the PC that was so incomplete when they released it that you couldn't even finish it right out of the box. It took half a dozen patches just to make the game beatable. Not only that, the game didn't even include a third of the features that were promised, although some of those were added later via patching, like the mini-map. Also the respawn rate of enemies was fucking insane, fortunately that was adjustable; but still the default was fucking insane. Additionally the story was rather broken, you're sent after this one mcguffin from this one NPC and your told not to go after the other mcguffins until you get that one. Unfortunately it turns out you can't actually find that NPC until you go get all the other mcguffins and there's noting in game to indicate that.
So if you can come up with a game that's worse then this, I'd love to see you try.
EDIT: Oh I forgot to mention the real joke of the whole thing. They've released a 'Collector's Edition' of this horrible game.

Army of 2 the 40th day, I'm quite sure the only reason I was able to beat it was thanks to a steady supply of a beer and a buddy to make fun of the game with while playing co-op.
Same ... I beat that one out of spiteAura Guardian said:
OT: I can't remember any so, they must have been awful >.> Give me a day or two and I'll be able to add Final Fantasy XIII, another one I'm playing out of spite at this point
Resident Evil 5!!!
Because playing alone sucked.
And playing with a friend sucked.
And the gameplay sucked, even though the gameplay in RE4 ruled. How did they fuck that up?? I only played through to the end because I wanted to see what happened with Wesker and Chris, which was more like some B-movie James Bond bullshit.

And there is not a single thing wrong with that.Hazmatdeath said:
Ouch. I had forgotten about that one. How did you ever survive to the end? I felt the ghost of Steve McQueen trying to strangle me about twenty minutes in.Hazmatdeath said:
