Weird, because I finished it and absolutely loved it. |

What? Have you played it or are you just singing along? |

Beat Writer  Posts: 156 Joined: 17 Apr 2008    | The fallout series! Some areas were innacessible, memory leaks, save games file corruption... Loved it to bits anyway mind you. It just makes it that much more appropriate that Bethesda, makers of such sandbox bug-farms as Morrowind and Oblivion, has taken up the reins. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1323 Joined: 22 Aug 2008     | how has anyone not said Shadow of Chernobyl, or Clear Sky yet? you can hardly do anything to those games without it screaming at you. My clear sky does a bug report sometimes when i start it up! |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 417 Joined: 28 May 2008    | Hmm mine is Shadow Dancer for the Master System. I quit even trying to play it after the first minute when both my sprite and the enemy started flickering in an out of existence amd the throwing star that had been lobbed at me disappeared only to end up embedded in my character's head. Haven't touched the thing since. |

Shadows was kinda glitchy on my desktop, but it ran like butter on my laptop. Coincidence? |

Paperboy  Posts: 38 Joined: 21 May 2008  | Boy that’s a good one; I would have to say either the original release of Oblivion or Dark Messiah: Might and Magic. When they first came out I rushed home eagerly and slammed the disc into the tray installed them. Low and behold, I got the most horrific crash/freeze fest ever witnessed by mankind. I promptly uninstalled……..oh wait… that’s right……oblivion (pre-patch) could not be uninstalled without purging the files manually and then mercilessly hunting down the registry entries. Dark Messiah was even worse, it wouldn’t even load 90% of the time, you would load your single player game from the menu and it would sit on the halfway mark forever, and you couldn’t minimize or task manager, you could only hard reboot your PC. The multiplayer was non-functional. I have only two words to describe the first week of playing those games after release… EPIC FAIL!!! |

I'd play the hell out of that game. |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 497 Joined: 12 Jun 2008 | I've been playing I Wanna Be The Guy again lately, and it's horridly buggy. This has been explained to be the fault of Multimedia Fusion 2, or whatever, but it's still extreeeemely buggy. I'll give it credit though, it is a piece of freeware. As for games I've paid for to have bug out? Morrowind liked to crash my Xbox periodically. Still, it wasn't *that* bad. Oblivion's got some bugs too, but not to the extent Morrowind did. |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 528 Joined: 11 Aug 2008   | I cant decide what's buggier, Shadow of Chernobyl's initial release(its pretty stable now thanks to mods) or Clear Sky. Both have faulty scripts, menus, and built in crashes up the ass! Also Clear sky is incompatible with the ATI 3800 series drivers which means you either have to downgrade or use the beta version of new drivers. Mercs 2 is pretty buggy, it's not that bad most of the time but in certain sections it pulls out all the stops in a frustrating attempt to force you to hurl your controller, WWE style, through your tv screen. |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 60 Joined: 10 Sep 2008   | I bought Oblivion for the PC, tried to install it and it broke my computer. Nothing worked. It crashed every time I tried to turn it on. I had to get a new one. It made me furious. |
Anonymous Source Posts: 8 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | Yep Medieval total war 2 is certainly up at the top of the list. If we include MMO's im going with AoC as the crafting systems, ah, bank, quests etc all had bugs on release. |

I seem to recall Myth II having a similar glitch. Un-installing Windows? Something like that. EDIT: Yeah, it uninstalled your Windows directory if you tried to nuke the game. God bless Penny Arcade. |

I second that nomination! Giants drove me insane. I had a PC that totally trounced the system requirements and had hardly anything running in the background and it still played terrible. This was even when I had an anti-virus program that was easy to turn off (I always played games with it turned off). Nothing I tried helped much. It was so disapointing too, because the fragments of the game I got to play were really funny and clever. A close second to Giants would be Enter the Matrix. That game looked and played awful on both my PC and Xbox even when it wasn't experiencing a game halting glitch. Another major let-down. I've boycotted buying anything made by Shiny ever since. |

Wow, talk about a bad bug! And I thought finding out (after I had bought and tried to install the games, rendering it unreturnable of course) that certain games were incompatible with a CD-ROM drive that I had in my old PC was bad. In some cases, it took a lot of digging on the game publisher's website to find that out too. Wiping your HD, now that's really bad. That's class-action lawsuit bad. |

I am going to agree with this one. There are arguably buggier games, but the true measure of buggy, in my opinion, comes from shooting for the moon and blowing up on the launch pad. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3274 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | KOTOR 1 on the PC before they put out the patch. Great game, crashed all the time. Even with the patch it was bad. Not as bad, but still bad enough to piss me off something awful. If it was not as awesome I would have stopped paying it in the first 5 minutes. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3447 Joined: 8 May 2008  | Well it obvious Big Rigs wins. I think PAC-MAN for the 2600 is worth a mention though for its blinking ghosts. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 98 Joined: 2 Feb 2008  | @Knights of the old republic 2 I got hit by that doozy. It was horrible!! Though I'd have to say X-men 2 Wolverines revenge OR Ubersoldier |
