You've been ordered to give one game away for each system that you own. You've also made a solemn vow never to replace it again. Which do you give away?

N64....Super Smash Bros. I suck at it anyways!
PSX....Wheel Of Fortune. Glitchy and repetetive.
Dreamcast....WWF Attitude. Even the DC couldn't help this dog.
NES....Trojan. My friend bought it for me because he thought it was an RPG.
Genesis....NHL 95. All of my other games are RPGs. LOL
Xbox....Sega GT Online. I can always play the one with Jet Grind on it.
PSP....ATV Quad Fury. It's the game that has the cheapest AI. :D

GBA- Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (I really tried to like this game but landed up hating it)
Lynx- Gauntlet

That’s all for now…

Sega Genesis--SportsTalk Baseball
Sega Saturn--Hexen

PSX - Sim City 2000. Sooo much more convenient to play on the PC.
2600 - Swordquest: Earth World. I still haven't figured this game out, I'm sure someone else a bit better at these things would get more enjoyment from it.
Inty - Utopia. Same as above.
Dreamcast - Incoming. Awful and boring.
Genesis - Wings of War. Bought it, thinking it'd be a shmup.
SNES - Spawn. Did somebody else already give this away?
NES - Rush 'n' Attack. One of the many mediocre NES games. First one I thought of.
Gamecube - First tough system, I'm real picky with current gen systems. I guess Windwaker, couldn't ever get into it. Sorry, guys!
PS2 - NFL2K3. Came with my playstation, no where gives enough credit to make it worth trading in. Don't care for sports games.
Xbox - GT Online.

Genesis: Sub-Terrania. Nice idea, but bad controls.
SNES: NBA Live '97. I can get my fix in NBA Live '96.
N64: Pokemon Stadium. The only thing I really enjoy is the minigames.
PlayStation: The Simpsons Wrestling. Worst game to use the Simpsons license until Simpsons Skateboarding came along.
PS2: Haven: Call Of The King. Not an awful game, but still pretty mediocre. I played the first couple levels and never went back to it (a couple months ago I would have picked Spyhunter 2, but I traded it off).
Gamecube: Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds. Not a bad game, but I'm not into the series as much as I used to be (a couple months ago I would have picked Batman: Vengenance, but I traded it off).
Game Boy: Castlevania Adventure. Not a bad game, but a little too slow for my liking.
Game Boy Color: Wario Land 3. I got lost a few too many times, and with portable games, that really turns me off.
Game Boy Advance: SimCity2000. A port of the original SimCity on the SNES would have been much better.

NES- Kid Icarus, just no fun
Mega Drive- WWF Royal Rumble, better wrestling games available

Playstation- FFVIII, Square did a complete 180 with this one.
N64- Excitebike 64, hated it.
DC- Resident Evil: Code Veronica, first DC game and the only one I have that I dislike
Xbox- Ghost Recon, hated it.
Gamecube- Summoner: A Goddess Reborn, really lame and your character is a ho.
GBA- Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, really wanted to like this as I love SRPG's. This was just to easy to win but felt very tedious.

Game Boy Advance: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Not a bad game I guess, I just don't like the Potter.
GameCube: James Bond 007: NightFire - EA mediocrity.
Nintendo DS: NONE. Only got one game and I'd never give away Polarium!
PlayStation: Rally Cross 2 - The original was fun, this one is not.
PlayStation 2: Top Gear DareDevil - Uncontrollable and devoid of a frame rate.
Xbox: NONE. I love all my Xbox games.
2600: Laser Blast - already got it as a part my 32-in-1 cart.
7800: NONE. Only because the sole game I have for it is the built-in Asteroids.
Dreamcast: F1 World Grand Prix - Not bad, but for some reason it's just not as a good as it's N64 predecessor.
Game & Watch: NONE. Again, only have one (Turtle Bridge).
Game Boy: NONE. Only got three games and I like all of them.
Game Boy Color: Turok 2: Seeds of Evil - Boring and crap.
Game Gear: Cool Spot - Boring and crap. Nice graphics though, but yeah, the gameplay is forgettable.
Genesis/Mega Drive: Newman Haas Indy Car - Again, BORING.
Lynx: NONE. Only got 4 games and I like 'em all.
Master System: Great Golf - Really botched game of golf. Slow, clunky and boring.
Neo Geo Pocket Color: NONE. Nothing particularly bad that I could get rid of.
NES: Super Mario Bros. - because I already have another copy of it as part of Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt! But if that doesn't qualify, then it would probably be International Cricket. I love cricket, but this game blows.
N64: AeroFighters Assault - Bad controls, awful fogging and a terrible frame rate. Glad I only paid $5 for it.
Saturn: Hi-Octane - Awful port of an already average game.
32X: NONE. Only got Star Wars Arcade and it RULES.
Mega CD: NONE. Only got 3 games, and I love them all.
SNES: Pebble Beach Golf Links - I find amazing that T&E Software, a company who seems to exclusively make golf games, has never EVER made a decent one!

2600 - I don't know. Most of these are more sentimental to me than anything, really. Actually -- Dolphin, since it was the last game that I picked up and I don't really care for it.
Lynx - I've only got five or six carts left for it -- Robotron, Crystal Mines II: Buried Treasure, Joust, Championship Rally, PONX and a BLL cart. If it counts, the BLL cart. Otherwise, Championship Rally.
Jaguar - White Men Can't Jump - WORST. "GAME." EVER.
Jaguar CD - Space Ace - Nearly unplayable...
NES - Death Race. I bought it to play it, and have yet to play it :/
SNES - Tough. Probably Tiny Toons Buster Breaks Loose. I really like the few SNES games I've held onto though. I mean, Star Fox Competition almost makes this list because it is probably the one I play the least.
Dreamcast - Oh geez... I really do like them all, and I'm playing this as I give away an entire title, so saying "NBA 2K" would be all five copies or whatever it is I have... In that case, I would have to give up Jeremy McGrath's Supercross 2000. I bought it early in the Dreamcast's life and then sold it because I hated it before I started collecting. I put off re-obtaining it because I knew I didn't want to play it.
Colecovision - I sold all my games for it that I don't care for... damn. Um... Probably Donkey Kong...
3DO - I own two games for it - Lost Eden and Incredible Machine. If I *had* to, Lost Eden would be the odd man out.
Action Max - Wow, do I only have to pick one? Anything but Pops Ghostly. That ones actually funny.
Neo Geo Pocket - Dive Alert: Either Edition. No question.
Game Boy - Um. I own like five games... One is a pirated copy of Pokemon yellow, so that has to go.
Game Boy Color - Donkey Kong Country. Good try boys, but remaking a graphically intense SNES game on the GBC? Not so much.
Game Boy Advance - Williams Arcade Classics, World Poker Tour or Ice Climbers. In fact, I will be getting rid of these soon.
Nintendo DS - Since I don't own the system, I think I'm safe. Otherwise, ZooKeeper, as it is the only game I own.
GameCube - The game I most want to get rid of currently is ESPN Winter Games.
Xbox - Although I want to keep Drake and the 1000 Dragons as far away as possible, since I already sold it I'll go with Alias. Can't figure out what's going on with that for the life of me.
Playstation - The boxed set of Sesame Street games that I picked up because "what the hell, they're $5.00". I hate those moments.
Playstation 2 - Of the few games I own, I guess I would give up Mad Maestro.

That's it! Can't think of anything else :)

Neat topic too. I'm enjoying reading other's posts!

I do have some games I dont like. I would give away:
PS1- I would give away "Air Combat". I just got this game recently because I wanted to see what the first Ace Combat game was like. Ace combat 2 is a big improvement with better graphics, sound, and load times.
PS2- I would give away "GTA: Vice City". I dont see what people really like about these games. I only picked it up out of curiosity.
Saturn- I would gladly give away "Machine Head". My nephew gave me his Saturn and this game among others came with it.
SNES- Out of the 13 Snes games i have, I would give away, "Phalanx"(SP?). I just cant get into it.
Nes- I only have like 5 games for it, and I can do without "Punchout". I never was into it back in the day, and I got it for free.
Sega CD- I can give away any of them, because I dont play it.

I'm just not including consoles I have one game for, because that would be silly.

GBA: King of Fighters EX: Neoblood. The boy has the better one, so I'd just steal his ;)

GCN: Wind Waker, no question. I haven't been able to get into that game like the others. It was so... stagnant.

NDS: Jump Superstars. I can't read it. ARGH. :P

PC: Final Fantasy XI, just because I never play it.

PSX: Anna Kournikova's Smash Court Tennis. My brother had fun with the demo, but it just isn't the same with him on the other side of the country. :(

PS2: Amplitude. It's a bit short, a bit boring. I liked it when it first came out, though.

Xbox: Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball, just because I couldn't let go of any of the others.

Atari 2600: Probably Mouse Trap.

Dreamcast: I'm gonna have to go with Feet Of Fury (sorry goatdan! :P) just beacuse the other games are too incredible to get rid of. I do love the game, though.

GB: UH... Pokemon Blue, I guess. I like Kirby.

GBC: Pokemon (Silver) again, Zelda is too awesome.

Game Gear: my complilation cart. I never play that thing anyway.

Mega Drive: Altered Beast, haha. It's just so... bad. Also, the other crappy titles I have (Ariel, Talespin) I've had since I was a kid, so they have sentimental value!

Master System: Alex Kidd in Shinobi World. The "others are too good" rule applies here once again.

N-Gage: Pocket Kingdoms. SONIC4EVA.

NGPC: Probably Pac-Man.

NES: Maniac Mansion! I loved it when I was a kid, but nostalgia just wasn't enough in this case. Besides, apparently it's way better on PC.

N64: Diddy Kong Racing. I... don't like a few of the games I own on the 64, now I look at my list.

Saturn: My Tenchi Muyo game, because I CAN NOT get rid of NiGHTS or Sonic R.

32x: Hrm, Knuckles Chaotix or Metal Head. I just can't decide! :P (Metal Head)

Mega CD: Prince Of Persia.

SNES: Genghis Khan II: Clan of the Grey Wolf. It came with my American SNES and I can't get rid of it!

Wonderswan: Final Fantasy, only because I have it in English on GBA.

Xbox: LOTR: FOTR. blech.
GameCube: NFL Blitz '03. never even bothered to play it.
DC: Maken X. again, never bothere to play it but a little bit.
Saturn: uhh, virtual casino. The crappiest Piliest Pile of Crap.
PSX: NHRA drag racing. not a bad game for what it is, but come on.
N64: NFL quarterback club '99. Buggiest. Game. Ever.
SNES: Jim power and the somehting dimention. again, a Very Very Crapy Piley Pile Of crappy crap.
Genesis: hmm, wheel of fortune. BOORING.
I think that's all of em.

PC: Black & White (It doesn't even work with my xp machine, but I kept it anyway for some wierd reason)

Game.com: Duke Nukem 3D (This game was not what I expected when I paid 20 for it)
Genesis: NHL '97 (I have it on Saturn)
N-Gage: Sonic N (I got my copy new, and it glitches at level 3 and the game turns off :( )
NES: IronSword: Wizards & Warriors II (the only reason why I bought it was because I thought it was funny that Fabio was on the front)
N64: Triple Play 2000 (I suck at baseball games)

Hey, judging by the other stuff you were giving up (Final Fantasy, Maniac Mansion, etc), I think that you probably don't hold onto games that suck, so I'd say it's in pretty good company ;)
