Worst games you've ever played?

[Pong]

Huh- seems like this is a question that stumps a lot of people. Here's my list:

 

ATARI 2600: Pac-Man (very annoying, because collision detection is really off and biased)

NES: Action 52 and anything made by LJN.

SNES: Terminator 2

Genesis: Action 52, again.

PC: Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing.

Wii: Tales of Graces (not a bad game, just full of glitches)

 

That's all I got right now, what's yours?

[The_Laird]

So many!!!! I will list ones I think of:

 

NES: Super Mario Bros

Gameboy: Super Mario Land

SNES: Super MArio World

CDi: Video Speedway

Megadrive: Dark Castle

Master System: Pit-Fighter

Gamegear: Joe Montana Football

Lynx: Cyberball

Jaguar: Superfly DX

2600: Pac Kong

7800: Fight Night

I've only got one that comes to mind, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty for xbox 360. It was so bad I actually returned it and demanded my money back from the manager at blockbuster within an hour of renting it. I've never felt the need to do that before, usually I'll just tough it out on a bad rental and try to enjoy it. This game though was so buggy and had such poor control that it was just completely unplayable, I got as a far as a section with a mounted machine gun versus a bunch of nazi's and it took way way more tries to beat it then it should have due to the fact that I was having trouble getting the gun to point at the people I was supposed to be shoot... yeah it was that bad.

NES: anything from Color Dreams. especially robodemons and raid 2020

SNES: Clue. boring

 

 

yeah thats about it.

I'm curious what you didn't like about this game? I'm a huge fan of the Metal Gear series(recently beat all 4 in order) so I'm curious as to what you didn't like about it. Was it Raiden's disturbingly womanly figure?

I don't play bad games long enough to even remember them or put them in a list. It's counter productive to focus on what I didn't like. Why try to wrap your brain around something(s) you didn't enjoy? only makes sense if you're attracted to pain.

well, there are games that are so bad and glitchy that its fun to screw around with them, like Action 52. Its not worth spending some big $$ to buy them, but its interesting to see how bad they are in emulators.

[BydoEmpire]

Airlock by Data Age for the 2600. I enjoy having it in my collection because it's so bad. IMHO, one of the worst on the system.

[nonner242]

Slave Zero for dreamcast.

 

Never played a game that had sooo many places (glitches/holes in) you can fall thru the map where you shouldnt. And very repetative...same old level after level. I remember feeling like I totally wasted my $50 on this game 2 hrs after owning it. Wanted my $$ back from store, but never returned it. It just felt sloppy and unfinished..rushed. Only cool part I remember was how big th last boss was.

Sssnake for VCS. This game single-handedly caused the crash of 83.

 

Dash Galaxy in the Alien Asylum for NES. It stunk.

[Christophero Sly]

Was it Raiden's disturbingly womanly figure?

No.

 

And for the record, I didn't hate the Raiden character as many people who dislike this game do. In fact, I found him to be the least annoying character in the game.

 

I couldn't abide the plot/story or whatever the heck that farce was supposed to be. Stupidest thing I've ever sat through. I'll spare you the litany of negative adjectives I usually invoke when I describe this game. I might have been able to tolerate the experience (as I was able to in MGS3) had the gameplay itself been any good, but it wasn't. IMO, it was just as broken as the plot.

Three Data Age titles in less than a dozen replies.

[Itchy Koala]

I found Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six on the DC to be extremely confusing with poor controls. The one shot kill health didn't help anything either.

Urban Champion on the NES. There were so many better fighters for the NES -- Karate Champ, Kung Fu, Punch-Out, Pro Wrestling, Wrestlemania.

Especially since Action 52 is so bad that it self-destructs. That's actually true, play it for 2 days, if you can. Then get a new console.

 

Metal Gear Solid 2 - PS2

I count six main titles.

METAL GEAR (but not the NES version)

Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake

Metal Gear Solid

Metal Gear Solid 2

Metal Gear Solid 3

Metal Gear Solid 4

 

Also, I remembered about Superman 64. Oh, how I hated that game. I can still read that flashing text, so that isn't a problem, but it's hard.

Why would you put "Super Mario" games on your list? Even if you don't care for platformers and dislike Mario as a character, you have to admit these are well programmed (not full of glitches), visually appealing and playable. You must have played far worse than those. But thumbs up for taking an unpopular stance.

[Krytol]

Bebe's Kids - SNES.

[gamer4456]

Urban Champion on the NES. There were so many better fighters for the NES -- Karate Champ, Kung Fu, Punch-Out, Pro Wrestling, Wrestlemania.

 

I laughed out loud when I saw Urban Champion...because that was a horrible game! Didn't they have an option for the power glove for uppercut? So funny!

 

 

Funny thing is, I still have a power glove one in a box downstairs!

[NE146]

SNES Pit Fighter

[Rikkarr]

Power Serve tennis for PS1... It was completely broken.

[mbd30]

Is SNES "Pit Fighter" much worse than the Genesis version? It was no classic but I kind of enjoyed the Genesis version at the time.

[Ze_ro]

I haven't actually played it myself, but check out "Town With No Name" for the Amiga CDTV:

 

 

YOU WATCHED IT! YOU CAN'T UNWATCH IT!

It says worst games you have played so I looked at it from the enjoyment factor and I really hated playing all those games so thats why they made my list.

Night and day. The SNES version is an absolute disgrace, go watch it on Youtube.
