WhatThe Cheesiest Game Ever?

[fairyland]

Before asking I done a search here and did not see this question asked, so I hope it it's safe to ask it without ruffling feathers. People here asked for the cheesiest game NAME, but never the cheesiest (kitsch/camp) game ever. So what would you say would be the cheesiest? Outside of "Chester Cheetah: Wild Wild Quest" of course.

My vote goes to "Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure" for the PSX. The songs are the most cheesiest I've ever heard in gaming, but I love them to death. It sets my kitsch meter to overload!

Runner ups - Space Channel 5 part 1 and 2, PaRappa the Rapper, UmJammer Lammy, Idolm@ster, Bust a Moves and Bust a Grooves (I cannot remember which is which), any Taito game with a cute cartoon whatever, any game that says Puyo or Pop'N in the title, Parodius and Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom. I know there are more, but these I actually own.

For me, it's House of the Dead 2. It's a great light gun game,, but watch the video and you'll hear some of the cheesiest lines ever. It's all capped off by the line at 1:35 in.

Well, if you understand portuguese it must be Samba de Amigo.

Chester Cheetah: Too Cool to Fool. Get it. Sorry, but I had to do it.

[chrisbid]

Mouse Trap, you had to collect lots of bits of cheese

[aclbandit]

Don't get me wrong, it's now one of my favorite games simply for the stunning gameplay and bosses, but Devil May Cry 3 has an unnecessarily over-the-top storyline full of nonsense, terrible cliches, and generally stupid dialogue.

But so.... much... fun....!

[swlovinist]

Incredible Crisis for the Playstation.....WTF

[Gunface]

Irritating Stick for PS1 has the worst commentator cheese ever. It's cheesy and appropriately titled. I almost snapped my controller in half playing this game.

Some people will hate me for saying this, but most anime-themed role playing games are too over the top for me. I've stopped playing certain games before because the characters were so overly dramatic I couldn't enjoy it on any level.

:puke:

[Sniderman]

Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE fan of the franchise, but the original Resident Evil has the most cheesiest dialogue ever recorded for a videogame.


Jill, why don't you, the master of unlocking, take this lock pick.


You were almost a Jill sandwich!

I could go on, but case-in-point above.

[Gunface]

Haha not just the dialogue, but the voice acting itself is cheese city. "Leon!"

How about the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night voice acting. "You steal men's souls!"

"The same could be said of ALL religions!"

I realized when I played Dracula X Chronicles for PSP that they re-recorded the voiceovers so that they wouldn't sound as cheesy. Such a bummer, because I love those cheesy lines!

[kainemaxwell]

Where's Waldo, NES.

[fcw3]

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties for the 3DO

[j_factor]

On music alone, the award goes to Sonic R.

Other than that, how about Rizing Zan? The "samurai gunman" with sexy moves.

[krooper13]

Cheese Cat-Astrophe for the Master System! Only messing I think Fantasy Zone may well be the kitchest game ever its ridiculously vibrant with lots of high pitched beeps.

[CelticJobber]

Revolution X has to be in the running for cheesiest game ever, with its lame storyline of saving the world with Aerosmith's music (literally, you fire using CD's).

Wave Race 64 was a great game, but it's MIDI version of the Mary Tyler Moore theme and other ultra-cheery music made it kind of cheesy.

[gum_drops]

Cho'aniki gets my vote.

[Gameguy]

I'll list some that haven't been mentioned.

It Came from the Desert for the TurboGrafx CD(it's worse than other versions).

For a cheesy plot, Bad Dudes. "The President has been kidnapped by Ninjas".

[CDiablo]

Id say most of the American Lazer games, most possibly Space Pirates takes the cake. Honestly 90% of games with FMV were terribly written and acted.

[chrisbid]

real answer

Minnesota Fats: Pool Legend

[Astrosmash]

Second Bad Dudes and Revolution X, and also submit Corpse Killer for consideration.

[theChad]

For a cheesy plot, Bad Dudes. "The President has been kidnapped by Ninjas".

First game that came to mind.

[Gunface]

Night Trap is pretty cheesy.

[stargate]

I know its an arcade game, but "Journey" is just god awful. It has to be up there. Even today, I am still amazed at how cheesy and sucky this game is.

"Steve Perry: Steve starts at the top of the screen and must make his way through a maze of moving turnstiles to his microphone at the bottom of the screen. Once he has the microphone, he uses the fire button to shoot at rows of passing turnstiles (similar to Galaga)."

[aclbandit]

Another nonsense title is Ninja Assault for PS2.

Guncon 2 is used for a ninja game starring ninjas with guns. Pretty sure they missed the point, but somehow I had fun with the game anyway.

[The 1 2 P]

Thats easy: Perfect Dark. It literally had cheese layed out in every level. Go figure.

[alec006]

Hmm that would be James Bond Jr. Seriously James Bond Jr,wow a redheaded James Bond wannabe,what a nice game huh.

[Cryomancer]

No More Heroes has some delicious cheese filling.

[Cinder6]

First thoughts were of Resident Evil and Rising Zan. But since those are already said, how about something more controversial?

Despite being one of the greatest RPGs ever, Lunar 2 (particularly the remake) can be pretty dang cheesy at times, particularly the Epilogue ending and Lucia's Theme (I'd start quoting it, but I'd start to feel ashamed).

[Haoie]

Are there any games where you star as an anthropomorphic piece of cheese?

Man, I'd pay for that privledge.

Technically it's the moon made of cheese, but I feel it counts.

90% of whats coming out for the Wii and DS these days. I went to target and man it herts to have these systems now! Potatoe Picker 2? Dog sitting? Profesional Pedicurist? Water Carierr '09..... What the f happend to the good games. Everything good came out last year or before. This sucks!

Thanx RASK1904:rockets:

[Tron 2.0]

Crime Patrol though most live action fmv games were like that then.

For some reason, developers are taking the innovative controls and wasting them on games that have mundane tasks. Just because I can make the motion of mowing the lawn with the wii controller doesn't mean I want to!

[Rob2600]

Cheesy games:

War Gods
Mortal Kombat series
Kabuki Warriors

[Draven]

Zen: Intergalactic Ninja. Like Captain Planet but with an odd-looking alien instead of a blue humanoid...wait, which is worse? It's not a bad game, but the plot is ridiculous and kinda cheesy. The whole premise of Blaster Master was quite insane, but not particularly cheesy.

[Xian042]

You MUST watch the cinemas on the Sega CD version of Prince of Persia. That dialogue was bad bad BAD. Especially when the main bad guy laughs.

[chrisbid]

i don't think anything produced in japan should count, they do not have a 'too-cool-for-school' attitude that is willing to call things in the pop-culture crap. U.S. americans have only started calling BS on what is spoon-fed to us in the last 25 years, and most of the stuff that deserves a cheese belt still (ie hannah montana) still doesn't get called for it

[Zebbe]

James Pond 3 is quite cheesy.

Oi, now I've seen it all.

[SegaAges]

There is a children's learning game, somebody help me with the title.

Where you are a mouse and are a cop mouse that has to stop people from doing bad things.

At one point, you could see in the game how drugs would effect you.

Incredibly funny because it was so cheesy

Not sure which game you're referring to offhand, but your description does remind me a bit of the "classic" unlicensed anti-drug NES game Wally Bear and the NO! Gang, which would also be in the running for cheesy games.

[blissfulnoise]

Sewer Shark is #1 for raw, unfiltered cheese. You know it's true.

SHOWTIME!

[Xander]

Magic Knight Rayearth for the Sega Saturn.

It makes your testicle shrinks.

[GnawRadar]

Minnesota Fats: Pool Legend is both the cheesiest game ever and the best game ever for the Sega Saturn.

[Damaniel]

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties for the 3DO

Seconded! :)

Of course, any of the 'Make My Music Video' games for the Sega CD give Plumbers Don't Wear Ties a run for the money. I tried playing the Marky Mark one a few weeks ago, and I was cringing from embarrassment the entire time. Stupid premise, terrible acting, terrible script -- even by Sega CD standards. Oh, so cheesy. :)

"Wrong way butt brain!"

[SegaAges]

Mappy?

Not mappy.

The cop was a mouse. I will have to hit wikipedia or something to try and find the title name, but it definately hits top 10 (maybe 5) for chessiest game ever (it would get this even if there was no mouse)

[Sonicwolf]

"Plumbers Don't Wear Ties" for the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer. Cheesiest game ever, hands down. ("TAKE YOUR DAMNED CLOTHES OFF!!" *dramatic music*)

[slapdash]

Not mappy.

The cop was a mouse.

He was in Mappy too (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mappy for a picture of the ad sheet), which is why Gameguy suggested it. I don't know the game you're thinking of, but wanted to at least stick up for him that far.

Thank You. :-D



I haven't been able to find many games that featured mouse cops, but I thought that would have been the most likely game. I'll list the other games I found that have mouse cops in them(I'm surprised there's more than one). It would help to know how old the game is, even an approximate age.

Murray Mouse: Supercop(C64)
The Mouse Police(PS2)

[FrakAttack]

Sewer Shark = Cheesy Bad

Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman = Cheesy Good

Incredible Crisis for the Playstation.....WTF

I love that game! Also just in case no one has mentioned it but Skull Monkeys for the psx.

[Thrillo]

I'm very surprised that nobody has mentioned the CD-I Zelda series...but then again, I guess it's mainly the cutscenes that rank of cheese.

[Seeric]

If games that are purposely cheesy are counted than Zombies Ate My Neighbors has to be up there.

If not, than I would have to say Jim Power and the Lost Dimension in 3D not really for anything particularly cheesy about the gameplay (although some of the sound effects and the appearance of your main character were ridiculous enough), but for the fact that it's the only game I can think of that actually came with a pair of 3D glasses to play the game with, which has to be the most awesomely cheesy gimmick I've seen a game come up with, especially since they barely even did anything from what I can recall.

Monster Party is an Honorable Mention for the story, some of the one-liners of the bosses, and the boss fights themselves (the 3 phase shrimp fight for starters...).

[Rob2600]

Jim Power and the Lost Dimension in 3D ... it's the only game I can think of that actually came with a pair of 3D glasses

Rad Racer (NES) came with 3D glasses, too.

[gum_drops]

Rad Racer (NES) came with 3D glasses, too.

Also, 3D worldrunner for the NES and Contra for the Saturn. I didnt realize Jim Powers had a 3D option.
