QUOTE(Juggler @ Nov 20 2006, 09:22 AM) kudos to a great thread..too often we argue over the BEST, but the absolute worst need to be recognized as well. In my book, the landmark achievements for the worst games are the ones that led you to believe they were great. Theres plenty of crappy games out there, but the WORST games are the ones that had you hooked, and then had a sequel that just absolutely blew. So my list is a mix of the biggest let-downs and the most over-rated flops of all time. 1) Socom 3 (Worlds Worst Let-Down), WWLD for short 2) Grand Theft Auto series(The Worlds Most Overrated Games.... Ever), WMOG...E.. 3) MGS2....could we draw the story out and make it any more gay?...well; 4) MGS3....hey let's add MORE ridiculous sci-fi enemies and make the story MORE obscure and ridiculous!!! 5) FF8: Thats a given for any FF fan 6) JAK 2 & 3: Take a great game and make it a free-roaming kiddie version of GTA with the same stupid timed pizza delivery missions...Screw you Insomniac. Don't change a great formula, ...it works EVERY year for Ratchet and Clank. 7) ANY racing game. Actually.. there is one good racing game. Need For Speed: Most Wanted Black Edition for PC.. for some reason I just REALLY like that game.. even though i hate other racing ones. |

i know i've posted in here but i might add sporting games which i think all of them are the worst as they are all boaring except for the orignal mario kart back on super nintendo. it was kinda fun when i was at that age.
the site below has a list of all (most) games on NES, SNES, PLaystation 1 & 2, X-Box, Sega etc and i think they even have PC if you wanted to refresh your memory on worst games as a title can help pick them out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki This post has been edited by Izzy: Dec 6 2006, 01:07 AM |

On the PC side of things, my pick for worst game is Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. This game is awful. It has no physics, you can fall through the terrain everywhere, it's a racing game with no opponents, races are way to easy. For example, you can go forward right off the starting line and then back up to win. BTW when you win the race, the game says "You're Winner". Check out reviews of it. For the PS2, I'm an RPG fan, and my pick is Unlimited SaGa, waaaay to confusing and was pure crap.

I've seen worse games played, but the worst game I ever played was Septerra Core simply because every time you left an area, the same enemies would re-appear. This is fine in some games, but if you walked five feet and had to go back you had to fight the same enemies, and if you're in a maze-like setting having trouble finding your way out, it's not that fun. Maybe if the designated "area" for you to leave and return to had been bigger, it would be more enjoyable, but I got tired of trying to find my way through confusing places when every time I turned around I'm fighting the same enemies. I didn't get very far in this game because I got frustrated and just lost the motivation to keep trying.

This post has nothing to do with this thread. I am curious if moderators read each and every post. Moderators, if you read this I would be fascinated to know.
Merry Christmas everyone. -------------------- I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

But it's not at all unbeatable, especially once you learn how to properly take cover in the foliage. Ducking and covering from the relentless AI hunting you down is the best play in the game. I think my vote will have to go to the big letdown and subsequent continual joke of the industry, Daikatana. Its laughability second only to the vapor-ware classic Duke Nuke'm Forever (Whenever?) --------------------  |

Worst Game Ever: Halo 2.
WAIT! DON'T FLAME ME YET! It was way too hyped for what it actually turned out to be. Seriously, a guy recently beat the story mode in 5 hours on Legendary. And you'll probably say "well, you don't play for the story mode - you play for online." I don't like obscenities being yelled at me by racist spoiled 13-year-olds. That's not that fun online play. I'd rather play Goldeneye, locally. Again, just my opinion. You don't have to like it if you don't want to, but that's how I feel and I stick by it. --------------------  |

I wouldn't put Halo2 in the worst category myself. A little underwhelming, but it had solid good points. The cloak and sword option playing as an Elite was fun.
What's really a crock of BS is that MS is making it a Vista-only title when they port it, and man, screw that. -------------------- |

Oh god yea, I have Halo for the PC (which isn't that great of a port in my opinion) and Halo 2 defiantly isn't going to make me want to go grab a copy of Vista.
I wouldn't say Halo is one of the worst games, but I agree that it was quite over hyped. I was quite dissapointed with how the game actually turned out and it was further worsened by the fact that my best friend was completly into the Halo hype machine and was spouting off all kinds of crazy things about how apparently great Halo 2 already was even though it wasn't even out yet and how better it was than every other game known to man. Being a fan of Half-Life 2, I couldn't stand that crap for long and I eventually stopped following Halo 2 and although I may like to see what happens with the story and how Halo 3 looks, I pretty much despise it now because of it's diehard fans. |

I love chess. Though I think it is one game that doesn't translate to PC's...I like having real pieces in front of me.

QUOTE(bizzle @ Dec 30 2006, 09:43 PM) final fantasy 7 OK, why? Many people name it the best game of all time. Not that I'm inciting flames, but could you give some reasoning? -------------------- |
