    Default Worst game

    I will start this again. We have all seen the "best of " list's. What are the worst games of all time?

    In my experience-

    2600 Pac-Man. Remember the commercial, showing a corner of the arcade version, telling us that it was coming home soon? How eagerly we awaited it? Then how we felt after firing it up? `Nuff said.

    2600 E.T and Raiders of the Lost Ark. We loved the movies, and, as above, eagerly awaited the games. We got them. Then, ...

    Neo-Geo World Heroes (check on the name; I'm not 100% sure). Am I glad I never bought a Neo-Geo. I actually saw someone, who had never played the game before in his life, beat it the VERY FIRST TIME, using the German Cyborg. $300+ for THAT?!

    CV Subroc. They should've waited a while longer, until they were skilled enough to program this game for the CV.

    (Dis)Honorable Mention: CV Time Pilot, Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom, Q*Bert's Qubes, Montezuma's Revenge, and Tomarc the Barbarian. 5200 Congo Bongo.

    Peter Pan & the Pirates, NES. VERY bad game. VERY VERY BAD!!
    there are only like 5 levels in the game, but you get to play them over and over again with different color pallettes, the play controll sucks, the level design sucks, and if you can refrain from vomiting long enough to game-genie your way to the end, the ending REALLY Sucks!!

    Conan on the NES sucks badly as well.

    Barbie NES, wallking around beach-ball in a shopping mall and driving the pink corvette...... :shock:

    I was about to forget Cheetahmen 2 and the crap you can find in the Action 52 cart. Insanity at it's best !

    I don't think Barbie was the worst game on the NES, but it was BAD. I still can't figure out why they'd make a game marketed at little girls to be so freakin' HARD. I used a game genie to beat it, and that last Juke box level took me nearly an hour to beat! Insanity!

    Ishido: The Way of the Stones.

    I would rather play Channel F Quadra-Doodle at gunpoint. I would rather play NES Where's Waldo blindfolded. Anything but Ishido.

    I liked E.T. and Raiders. I remember my friend Matt and I had a competition to see who could complete those games first. I have great memories of both.

    Ah, a man educated in Sachen. Yeah, that game's terrible.

    I said this in the old thread (pre-crash) and I'll say it again: Cheetahmen 2. No contest.

    My vote is for Superman for the N64. I was so stoked when that game came out I couldn't wait to play it. The screenshots looked great in the magazine. I thought it would get better after I finally beat the ring level but it only got more tedious. Thank goodness I didn't have enough money at the time to buy it. That rental saved me $50 worth of crap.

    (some descriptions can be vague)
    Action 52: Worst game ever, because it is basically 52 really bad games fused into the same plastic demon, and to add insult to injury, it costed $200 back when it was originally released.
    Sword of Sodan: Slow, lumbering barbarians poke each other with pointy sticks.
    Pit Fighter: Proof that putting real people in a brawler does not make a game more realistic.
    Gururin: Requires luck to win. Big disgrace to the puzzle genre.
    Captain Novolin: Superfit superhero in tight spandex evades donuts and Twizzlers in order to save the mayor from aliens, so he can continue the ceremony of worst superhero ever.
    Rough Ranger: A rip-off of Rolling Thunder where you play as the dumbest Green Beret in the world.
    Wonder Momo: Goofy costumes, high kicks, and bad acting.
    Accelbrid: Blocky, dizzying backgrounds.
    Maka Maka: In my opinion, the worst RPG ever. Makes Hydlide look like a masterpiece.
    Dark Castle: Dumb blonde guy throws rocks at the undead.
    Nastar: Rastan, what happened to you?
    Athena: Pointlessness.
    Beezer: Getting stung by a bee is more fun.
    Bravoman: If Captain Novolin was nonexistent, then Bravoman would win the award for worst superhero ever.
    Tomb Raider series: Really bad controls. Maybe those knockers are to blame.
    Double Dragon 3: The arcade version was just terrible, and the NES version was too hard. 99% of the time, I could never get past the first level. I got past it once, but died in the house in the second stage.
    Bio-Ship Paladin: Ugly ship blasting away at other ugly ships.
    Blandia: You cannot spell this game's name without the word bland.
    Bombjack Twin: A dishonor to its father. Why did NMK have to ruin Bombjack?
    Cannon Ball: A boring puzzle with bad MIDIs.
    Gang Wars: Even the punks are notoriously incompetent, and so is this game.
    Genpei ToumaDen: Kabuki swinging sword wildly.
    Judge Dredd (arcade version, which is a prototype): I could see why this was never released. Women walking mini-Goros, mean robots, and freakish hags, complete with bad gameplay and cheesy digitized graphics.
    Fight Fever: A really banal and ugly game.
    Legend of Success Joe: A failure. Control Success Joe as he fights suicidal boxers and provokes tacky ruffians for the hell of it.
    Logger: I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay, but not with this blatant Donkey Kong rip-off.
    Many Block: Starts out too slow, then eventually gets too quick, and is boring all around.
    Rex Ronan: A microscopic dentist cleanses a smoker's body. Bad collision detection, hit detection, and grotesque scenery.
    Mug Smashers: Crappy, ugly brawler with music stolen from the Combatribes and bosses with such creative names as Big Man and Red Man.
    Ninja Combat: Just another terrible brawler with cheap gameplay and useless sidekicks.
    [u]Hydlide{/u]: A poorly composed version of the Indiana Jones theme haunts you throughout your suicide charging at slimes.
    Bokosuka Wars: WOW! YOU LOSE!
    Othello Derby: Combines the worst of both worlds.
    Poto Poto: There are numerous ideas for a puzzle, many of them are bad, and this is one of the bad ones. Too boring to explain.
    Reikai Doushi: Choppy clay models depicting the Chinese punch each other until one's head comes off.
    Sen Jin-Guardian Storm: Bland, primitive shooter. Good if you want to cure insomnia.
    Stagger I: See above.
    Speed Coin: Drop a coin down a chute, if you can stay awake.
    Shocking: Guide a furry on a quest to become human again, sometimes to the groove of Marky Mark.
    Zombie Nation: When I said "head of the samurai," I do not mean a big bloated head that spits eyeballs and hearts.
    Streaking: To me this is the worst Pac-Man rip-off, but not as disturbing as Abortman (a disgusting Pac-Man hack).
    Street Smart: Not very smart.
    Super Burger Time: Blasphemy! There is nothing super about this disgraceful descendant of the legendary Burger Time.
    Turtle Ship: Programmed by No Young Ho. I did not make that name up!
    Violence Fight: Dogon! Goon! Bogon! Dogoon! Kill you! Next you! Sammy you!
    Zzyzzyxx: Who came up with this name?
    (may come up with more later, if I edit this again)

    Default I like

    I actually like Action 52, some of those games are damn fun.

    I'm not going to mention the games I don't like for Atari and Colecovision because my opinion may be a bit different since I didn't grow up with the thing.

    I hate Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde for NES, along with Silver Surfer, and Bee 52, and Impossible Mission 2 is crappy except for the dudes scream, and....

    Well, from my bio you'll see I totally hated Crusaders of M&M. I bought it for full price & returned it just 2 days later, & told the clerk what I thought of it! I recall getting ganged up on (from behind- yeah, that's fair), an FMV I couldn't skip over, & having to guzzle potions constantly. The graphics were prtty choppy too. I think all you got for beating it was the chance to play again w/ unlimited potions. NO THANKS! E.T. & RotLA are gaming gold compared to this piece of crap...
