I like the old '80s games that seemed to believe if it's fun to say, it must be fun to play.

Dig Dug
Bubble Bobble
Bump N' Jump
Congo Bongo
Marble Madness

Maybe a little cliche but, Doom.

It's a powerful, one syllable name that perfectly describes what it is.

And it's one of the funnest words in the English language. Dooooooooom.

Some I like:

Bahamut Lagoon - evokes this image of dragons on some hidden beach
Crystalis - Sounds 80s fantasy and adventure
Eternal Sonata - Unique combination that captures the music elements of the game
Fallout - Short and sweet and straight to the point
Lunar: Silver Star and Eternal Blue - Classic fantasy sounding
Neverwinter Nights - Is it an escort service or fantasy RPG?
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream - Strange and unique title, makes you pause a second to think about it
Uncharted Waters - Fits the game well, gives that sense of adventure and unknown

This is a title which immediately turns me off it's just super busy and confusing :P.

This is definitely one of the weirder game I own and has one of the weirdest names. Chu basically means the sound of a kiss but that's not something you really hear or see used outside of Japanese culture.

Best video game name ever :lol: .

Ninja Golf is a much better title than it is a game.

I wanted it to be this:

Some really dumb names...

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties
Image
Dumb name for a dumb game.


Bikini Karate Babes
Image
Blatant name for a blatant game.


Toilet Tycoon
Image
I guess they'll make these tycoon games about anything.


Bloodwings Pumpkinhead's Revenge
Image
I just, I mean, why?


Hostile Waters Anteaus Rising
Image
Actually a decent game. But a decent name? No. Not at all. Pretty sure the name alone killed any chance of success.


I can think of more if you guys want.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.
