Worst Game Ever: Superman 64.

Let me even tell you a small story about this game...
About 9 years ago when I was 15 I worked for Hollywood Video. The good news was that I got all of my game rentals for free, so inevitably I rented every game under the sun without even reading reviews. Right before I quit, I had rented Superman 64. It was the most abysmal game I had ever played. Once I left Hollywood Video, and my free rentals went dry, they decided to consider my outstanding rentals as real ones...which meant they incurred late fees. I had lost the case to Superman 64 and kept trying to turn in the cartridge but since I hadn't left on good terms, they were assholes about it and wouldn't take it. Many of you may not know this but the per game cost for a rental store is monumental, comparatively speaking, to consumer prices. Once I didn't turn it in I was charged in full late fees plus their cost of the game. My bill was $154.00. I tried to get out of it, but they sent me to a collection agency.

Yes, I paid $154.00 for my proud copy of Superman 64', so aside from it actually being terrible...personally, I rue the day I came in contact with it.

McKids was acceptable.
I actually had fun with Shaq Fu.
Big Rigs was awesome becuase I broke the speed of light going reverse in a truck.

Action 52 is the worst game of all time because it sold for $200 and was 52 games that would have been shitty on Atari 2600, and they even look like Atari 2600 games too. I played through all 52 of the games that worked (Alfredo always just went to a black screen this is true on the genesis version as well for me) and they all had major flaws, which is impressive considering how basic the design was. Don't believe me? Look it up on youtube. I think the guy who reviews it is Silent Rob or Maybe it's Silent Jay.

As for next gen games, Sonic the Hedgehog was pretty awful, but it was a fun kind of awful. I was able to laugh off my cheap deaths and not rage, but it probably killed my 360.

i wanna add in ..

Animal Crossing

I disagree.

In my vague recollection I recall a gameboy Scooby-Doo game that sucked eggs but I can't recall the title.

..

well i disagree with your disagreement

animal crossing was terrible no one can deny that running around going fishing and paying you mortgage would be fun in a game ESPECIALLY if that is all you ever do in the game

I deny it. Animal Crossing is a fun game.

I would say what the worst game I've ever played is but people would lynch me.

Ah, that's par for the course here. Be a man and admit it! I admitted that I'd played Drake of the 99 Dragons, and nobody cared.

And regarding Animal Crossing... it's not an action game. It's a lot like The Sims, just more cute. So if you don't like those types of games, then you have no reason to complain about there being nothing to do.

That batman begins game that came out with the first of the new batman movies.

I took one look at that dip$$$$ walking like he had something large inserted somewhere unpleasent and began to laugh. Then I realized the whole game was based around building up fear in the enemies.

Returned that one to the rental place and picked up Shadow of the Collosus.

For the fourth time.

I hate the playstation 2. Except for shadow of the collosus. (and a couple others)

It's not admitting I've played a bad game, it's just what I consider the worst game I've ever played is much loved by many, many people.

I didn't check, but I'm pretty sure Big Rigs has already been mentioned, so I'll go for a less known game:

Asghan the Dragon Slayer. It looked decent for its time, but it has some of the most atrocious voice acting and clunkiest gameplay I've ever seen in a game.

Guys Guys Guys - You KNOW that the Sopranos game HAS to come in the top ten, it was like they took the code from street fighter, deleted random parts out of it and chucked it in a 3D engine! Being a sopranos fanboy i was angrier than angry can be. and it only lasted about 4 hours.

Batman Forever - god that game was horrible. It tried to mix side-scroller with fighting game and wound up a worse combination than McCain/Palin. I only played the PC version but apparently the SNES version had seriously messed up controls, and I shudder to think how it could get worse.

I can't believe I wasted $35 on this piece of crap game. Poor controls, unbelievably broken storyline, and while it's nice the game doesn't tell you what to do, not being told a damn thing is even worse. UGH.

A game that really made me want to commit seppuku just for playing it was Dino Crysis 2 never have I seen a game which RØVRENTE its forbearer, I mean Dino Crysis was soo full of wonderfull difficult things to do and a great atmosphere. Then Dino Crysis 2 comes along and shits in the face of Dino Crysis 1 I mean you just like running around shooting dinosaurs maybe finding a keycard here and there. I HATED THAT BLOODY GAME!!!!!!!!! finally I said it :D

This is indeed one of the worst games you will find for the PS2

PS1: Dark Tower. Run away if you ever see this game up for sale at Game Stop because I wish I had. There's nothing quite like a main character stuck in first-person mode in a fantasy medieval setting looking up in the air like a douche while you walk off of a set of stairs you didn't know was there until the 7th time you had to restart the level. The only way I knew they were stairs was I saw a glimse of them as I was falling, and the dickhead I was controlling actually looked up at them as he was falling down.

You are wrong. You are so wrong. Dino Crysis 2 cannot be the worst game ever. You know why? Because of Dino Crysis 3.

Make My Video for the Sega CD.

Sixty bucks for three minutes of gameplay, and a half hour of incredibly bad FMV acting.

Kind of like Highlander 2.

E.T. Was THE most digusting, horrifying and evil game I have ever had the sad chance to play.
Next up on my list was DOOM 3. I mean come on! I had to CARRY a flashlight! Do they not have guns with lights on them anymore?

I'd hardly call that worst. Annoying and frustrating but not worst. The worst game in the world doesn't have incredible graphics and mods to get rid of the frustrations.

Indigo_Dingo:
Worst I've ever actually played? Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.

You call that worst? Same as above. Yes, it's not as impressive as Metal Gear, but it's still a powerhouse. Convince me otherwise.
