Worst games to ever grace Mankind
 
Let's list them.

That Matt Guy 01-07-2007 02:13 PM

Oh man, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for NES. Horrible, horrible game and yet me and a friend actually beat the damn thing in a drunken stupor one night a few years ago.

Also Castlevania 64.

Sewer Bull 01-07-2007 02:21 PM

Mario Is Missing deserves a honorary mention. The worst Mario game ever.

Jester 01-07-2007 02:22 PM

I like Mario is Missing...:p it's ok....

What about Shaq-fu?

Ecto Jedi 01-07-2007 02:42 PM

How about the Great Waldo Search, Gilligan's Island, and Power Punch II, all for the NES?

愛 01-07-2007 02:52 PM

I can already see this thread's theme. "BUT THAT'S JUST YOUR OPINION!" But anyway...

Friday the 13th (NES)
Final Fantasy X-2 (PS2)
Final Fantasy XII (PS2)
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest (SNES)
Resident Evil: Code Veronica (PS2/GC/Dreamcast)
Resident Evil Gun Survivor (PS? I forget)
Sonic Heroes (GC)
Back to the Future (NES)
Devil May Cry 2 (PS2)
Vagrant Story (PS)
Solstice (This could also go under the best game to ever grace Mankind)

That's all I can think of for now. I don't remember playing many God awful games.

Brodie 01-07-2007 03:22 PM

ET, anyone?

Mecha Cow 01-07-2007 03:47 PM

That Kingdom Hearts game for the GBA was pretty terrible. I also second Mario is Missing.

...And Pac-Man, also for the Atari 2600. Ugh.

Cure 01-07-2007 04:47 PM

Isn't "WORST games to ever GRACE mankind" kind of an oxymoron?

Anyway, the worst I ever played was Eye of the Beholder for the SNES. It was a terrible first person adventure based on Dungeons and Dragons.

I do suppose it is to a slight extent, but unintentional. Anyway, how about Superman 64? Frustrating to the max.

Peanut 01-07-2007 09:18 PM

You'd think I'd be all over such a negative thread, but I got nothing. There are just so many completely terrible games, I could never pick one or even ten.

Haha, oh my gosh. We still have that for Atari. It still boggles my mind, actually.

Jester 01-07-2007 09:37 PM

I hated that game....yes when we had an Atari we had E.T. that and Atari's "Empire Stikes Back" sucks.....

Peanut 01-07-2007 09:41 PM

Hey, cut that game some slack. They had to cobble that thing together in 6 weeks.

Jester 01-07-2007 09:43 PM

Which, E.T. or ESB?

Peanut 01-07-2007 09:44 PM

E.T.. ESB was just made by untalented people. :lol:

Jester 01-07-2007 09:53 PM

Indeed....I never died....but I also never beat the first level either. I could never figure out how to release the tow cables....

Jo Dawn 01-07-2007 10:01 PM

ET just... confused me. Hehe, I remember it was put together quickly... And the noises in the game still haunt me...

ThirdMarioBro 01-07-2007 10:10 PM

Most Atari noises still haunt me. Atari in the arcade days; that's some legendary stuff that will probably outlive us. Atari on consoles.......yuck.

Shredder 01-08-2007 12:00 AM

I particularly hate bad sequels to good games. Twisted Metal 3 and 4 come to mind, as do Coolboarders 3 and 4 (all on PS1). These were two PS1 series I had previously enjoyed, only to see them both ruined by 989 Studios.

Deathknight 01-08-2007 01:39 AM

Everyone hates Twisted Metal 3 & 4 except me lol. Though I will admit 4 got kind of silly when they replaced all the characters except for a few unlockables. I loved 2, 3, and 4 and unfortunately there hasn't been a good Twisted Metal since IMO. There actually is a list though of the worst games of all time. Here it is, enjoy. http://www.seanbaby.com/nes/egm.htm

The Clerk 01-08-2007 01:40 AM

Rascal for PSX.... terrible game......

Brian 01-08-2007 11:04 AM

Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance (too slow and clunky)
Any Mario Party game beyond 2 (MP 2 kept me going, but the last several never really caught on)
F-Zero: GP Legend (I was blown away after playing GX and this one never really caught on)

There. I have removed Wind Waker from the list.

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Oh no he didn't!

愛 01-08-2007 11:27 AM

Wind Waker? How? Why?

Barkworm 01-08-2007 11:28 AM

Diiiiiiieeee!!!!

Peanut 01-08-2007 11:29 AM

That's just a case of him not liking it, not it being a bad game. The worst game has to be something that has no redeeming value. tWW is a superior game, finely crafted and honed to perfection, high production values and a great sense of style.

It is fact that tWW is a well-made game, you might not like it, but it's well-made. Meaning it can't be the worst game ever. Worst game ever would be something like that truck racing game for PC, where you can go as fast in reverse as you can forwards, every single environmental object has no collision detection, your truck will bug out and down pinpoint turns of it's own accord, and you can drive until you fall off the race course.

In conclusion, let us ignore all posts made by this Brian character from this day forward.

Brodie 01-08-2007 01:29 PM

ahahahaha,

"This Brian character..."

I liked Twisted Metal 3 when I was a kid...I still got it laying around here somewhere.

Syphon Filter Omega Strain...damn did that game piss me off with how BAD it was. I loved the SF series on PS1 and this piece of garbage comes around and just pisses on the series. SF 2 was still the best I miss that game. I lost my copy and I can't find it anywhere to buy.

cowabunga14 01-08-2007 08:07 PM

I thought Rayman Arena and Jekyll & Hyde were pretty sucky.

To be fair, TM 3 and 4 aren't my least favorite games of all or anything, just ones I found disappointing considering how much I enjoyed TM2.

You didn't like Twisted Metal Black? I thought it redeemed the series and is one of my favorite PS2 games.

Ra 01-08-2007 09:44 PM

Worst game to ever grace man kind? Got no clue, though I think it goes to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for just being so damn confusing and...well, crap :|

The worst game I have ever played to date, however, though it pains me to say it, has to be the VERY first TMNT game made in 1989. I've got nothing against the graphics or anything, but it's just...well, let's say that I didn't like the fact that they didn't use characters like Krang and such. Instead they have these robots that always seem to spawn after you kill them o_O Good thing they improved greatly over time, no? :D

XERO 01-08-2007 10:16 PM

Did anybody mention Superman 64 yet?

Yes. Pink skies are teh awesome.

Brian 01-08-2007 11:21 PM

Now that I think about it, I never really gave Wind Waker a chance. I was just turned off by the cartoon-like graphics, especially after playing OOT.

I didn't really go for WCW Mayhem either. It was hard to put this game on the same level as WCW/NWO Revenge for the Nintendo 64.

U didn't just say the graphics turn u off, that was one lame excuse many gamers said when they saw the game.. Trust me dude.. The game is fantastic.. Deserve to be in everyone's gamecube library and um just cuz the graphics are cartoony, plese give the game a chance.. the story is fantastic..

Anyways, E.T. and Superman 64 are 2 worst games.. My family has an Atari with E.T.

Yikes!

Brian 01-09-2007 11:05 AM

Thanks for recommendation. I'll certainly keep it in mind as it is probably cheap now.

Back to the topic, another WCW game that never took off with me: WCW Nitro. I guess it reminded me of WCW Thunder too much.

Ecto Jedi 01-09-2007 09:37 PM

Soccer, for the NES. Granted, most of the launch titles for the NES were pretty darn awful, but this one really takes the cake. Ugly graphics, unbelievably bad gameplay, asinine sound design. Really, really bad game.

jeff the cheff 01-09-2007 11:36 PM

I bought a SNES game called Mario's Time Machine at the game store, not knowing what it was. Turns out, it's a crappy learning game. :-?
