One should always know to tell a bad game from a game that doesn't suit him/her. There's a huge difference between those two types.

My worst one was I think Next Life; it's the only game I've definitely uninstalled, deleted and erased after playing about one frustrating hour

true there are games that i find so bad that it makes me want to sue the company that made them for all the pain and suffering. yet that same game somebody could love it so much they would marry it. it all comes down to taste for sure.

I don’t play many adventure games, but I finished Next Life. The puzzles are kind of inconsistent - some are logical while others aren’t so. Also sometimes it seems like you haven’t accomplished anything by trying an item on an object, but this sometimes will make a character appear on another screen, but it’s frustrating until you understand this is how much of the game works. I had much trouble to begin with as well, because I didn’t have the manual I didn’t know pressing ‘E’ would show where the connections\hot-spots in the areas are. This solve helped me a lot:

I thought this game was interesting enough to play to the end, but I can see that it wouldn’t appeal to everyone

allright i will take back what i said about daikatana being my worst game i have to say after recently playing Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty it was by far the worst game i've ever played on the PS3. i don't know if the pc version is much better or the same or worse but this was so bad there wasn't any screenshots on the back cover i should have taken the hint and combine that with: Clunky Controls, Craptastic Graphics, and a Horribly Done Storyline you can't even struggle trough 10 minutes of this turdfest without thinking you could be playing something much more fun like Call Of Duty 4. but then again that's my opinion but you can't help but think when somebody calls a game an absolute pile of shit that you can expect anything more than a steaming pile of shit. :?

Sniper Path of Vengeance. Most "bad" games have atleast one or two points that are decent, but this one was just complete crap, both technically and gameplay wise. I tried everything possible to make the mouse somehow controllable, but to no success. Didn't even finish it.

To resolve the mouse issue and other bugs you need the 2.33 patch

Excellent game I thought, played through it recently and loved it

The Monkey Island games are pure classic, both story and humor wise they are top notch.

Adding to the games mentioned:
Battlefield Vietnam ... I don't know whats wrong with this game but if you set the AI to a difficulty where they make resistance the computer crashes due to memory overflows. And considering that they have patched this game up to version 1.6x and that problem persist is just sad.
(I have 4 GB RAM, 3.5 GB are always free for use ... I can't see how Battlefield Vietnam needs more than that)
Some people are like slinkies... They're not really good for much but they do bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs.

It would be easy to pick an early BASIC computer game from the early 1970's, say, Battleship, and call that boring. I mean, what was that but just pressing a bunch of random numbers? But then at least we are talking of a time when everything was experimental and you probably were some very avant-garde nerd to be able to even touch a micro-computer.


No, the videogame that got me laughing really hard so much I thought it was crap was an early Cd-Rom title, and it is featured here. It was called Psycho Killer and I played the CD32 version. It lasts for about 10 minutes and features the most horrid acting you can imagine, and very cheap photographs that you have to meander your way through. Even the intro movie and instructions were more intriguing than the actual videogame. It even beats the laughable Sega CD MaKe My Video series (which at least had some replay value, though extremely poor).

I don't know if the PC version is any better than the CD32 one, but... wow! It's really the bottom of mediocre. It wouldn't have been so bad if they had extended the scenes, bring us to more places, more forests, I dunno, do anything that can make the darn plot lasts more than 10 minutes?!!


I will love hearing people coming to the defense of this videogame!


Cheers,
