Nintendo Power said it was going to a wacky good time. It was just so monotonous and aggravating. Plus I never understood what I should have been doing. (cleaning the house and fixing the big robot, sure but...why?)
MW2. I got it for PC, its like IW didn't even bother to say anything to the pc community. We are the ones that held CoD up for so long and they shat on us with no dedi servers, bad gameplay for the PC and huge restrictions. It still looks better on pc though x.x
the newest prince of Persia and dragon age origins. i say this not because these were the absolute worst games but because they had potential to be really good, and because these games had such potential their failure is all the more disappointing.
"Hey guys! I have a great idea! Lets make a game entirely out of quick time events! Then we'll make some stupid collect-a-thon to make sure that people explore every inch of our beautiful world!"
Edit: MW2 for such awful story. Also for the horseshit that causes me to die online, obviously everyone else is hacking.
Well, I play a lot of independant games and some of them are quite awesome. This means however that there are many mind bogglingly bad games in my mind, along with the hidden gems. Omitting games that would not run, I would have to nominate *rolls drums*
Zenhak, which is a cyberpunk RPG released through X-Box Live's virtual arcade. It has no directions, no plot, and checking out the developer's page he said it was more or less releasing it unfinished and planned to work on the game more if enough people actually bought it. It's sort of a hacking game which I eventually figured out through trial and error, but it's not anywhere near as good as say... Uplink.
Unsure if that spoiler thing took (just trying to figure out the code after being griped at). I suppose if I had to pick a professional or "mainstream" game it would be hard because of the sheer amount of passed time, and so many good and bad games. I mean Silent Hill 2 (and the contreversy over the Demo) was in like 2001 and that means that technically PS-2 launch titles like "Evergrace" and the like technically qualify, even though many of those games are bad mostly because it was still when developers were figuring out the tech.
I thought Spore wasn't bad, though it struck me as being more of a tech demo than a game, and I seem to remember Will Wright even admitting that after the fact when asked if he expected it to take off like "The Sims". Never played Superman 64, and when I eventually tried Halo I thought it was a pretty average FPS game. I'm not a big FPS gamer but it didn't grab me like some other games like "Bioshock" that sucked me into the genere for a while.
I suppose if I HAD to pick something that was bad as opposed to not being as good as it should have been or whatever... hmmm, Ephermental Fantasia for the PS-2 stuck in my mind as having an interesting premise but ultimatly striking me as a pretty bad game. A lot of people swear by it though. Probably something worse that my mind is surpressing at the moment though.
Ive got the movie for that! ..It makes me want to murder people. We have it on every christmas as a joke
Oh, and if I have to hear another joke about "This year we got Fireplace 3: Revenge of the Fire" I will shoot someone.
Anyway.. I dont play bad games. At all. I always watch the gametrailer/IGN review before buying any game or downloading the demo.
The worst game I actually played and can therefore be a fair judge of is WoW. I generally don't play bad games because I have learned how to determine a games quality through a combination of trailers, reviews, and good old intuition. For example, the second worst game I played last decade was Half Life 2, and that was fairly decent.
I hoard games because... well, I really don't know why, but my copies of Call of Duty 3, Sonic the Hedgehog (for the 360), Rainbow Six 3, and Starfox Command are really, really dusty.
Starfox Assault wasn't great, either, but I still get a kick out of the awful dialogue and woodland critter drama
Edit: Somebody mentioned Shadow the Hedgehog. How the hell did I forget that one? Playing that through was like choking down a quart of cyanide (and since I was thick enough to try to see all the potential endings, I probably consumed over a gallon). I've learned my lesson with those rotten little fleabags: never, ever again...
I'd say worst game would be easier to agree on than best game because some games people will argue about but others are just plain bad. There are games that everyone is agreed on as being godawful. I.e. Have you ever heard someone try to defend superman 64?
My personal worst would be Harry Potter and the goblet of fire.
This is one of my problems with these threads. Some people don't even back up their opinion. And they are the ones that pick the "popular" games that "are cool to hate"
OT: Haze. I went into it hoping for something Free Radical wold make something even okay, but it was bad. The graphics were bad, all the guns were completely bland, giant game breaking bugs, and it was just boring.
I really liked Haze's singleplayer/co-op. The story sucked, but I don't remember the graphics being bad, and it was fun to shoot teh baddies. I hated the multiplayer, though. HATED it.
Probably not the "worst game", but the game I had the least fun on was Mirror's Edge. It was so badly put together. I played Superman 64 on an Emulator too, and I'm not sure if it was this decade, but that was pretty bad, albeit hilarious. Kind of a cliched choice I know, but hey.
Worst game I have played, well that would have to be Luigi's Mansion. Good God the boredom that I had will never be measured in like terms again. Yet the worst game I ever HEARD of would have to be E.T.
Sonic the Hedgehog for the 360. I only played the demo, but I knew it was bad. Then I heard the plot synopsis... human-beastial romances have no place in a Sonic game (or, for that matter, ANYTHING).
