Worst game EVER made

[mluitjens]

What do you guys think is the single worst game in existance? For me, it has to be Shaq Fu on Super NES. I have a hard time just landing one hit on any opponent because of the horrid controls. I can do no more than helplessly hop around the screen trying to position an attack. Some honorable mentions would be ET (Atari 2600), Little Red Hood (NES), and Superman (N64).

I'm going to wait until other people post their thoughts before I end the thread with a bang.

For me it's total recall for NES. I'm just glad I rented it and didn't buy it. I think that was when I first learned that games based on movies usually sucked ass.

Where's Waldo for NES. It basically fills the screen with 4 color static and you move a slow cursor around and click buttons until it tells you that you found him.
My brother rented this game once, we never did find waldo.
Seanbaby has some good worst videogame reviews that I mostly agree with:

"Hate" is not a strong enough word to express my disdain for Shadow of the Beast.

...ET (Atari 2600)...

How much time have you spent with this game?

I remember being a kid and having absolutely no concept of "good" and "bad". I played Back to the Future NES tons for reasons I honestly can't understand nowadays.

Even still, I remember renting Mario is Missing and thinking it sucked.

I remember being a kid and having absolutely no concept of "good" and "bad". I played Back to the Future NES tons for reasons I honestly can't understand nowadays.

I can relate to that; I remember renting plenty of "bad" games back in the day and playing the hell out of them.

Currently for me, the WORST game...I gotta go with two:

Final Fantasy XIII - I won't even go into one of my massive rants on this thing and just say the one positive thing I can think of, the engine powering the game is nice. If you want more, watch the Zero Punctuation review for this game to get my opinion. Seriously, I have never had my opinion of a game summed up so perfectly in a five minute video before. Though I think what irritates me the most is when the fans of this game piss and moan when I say I don't like it. If anything it makes me hate the game that much more.

Legend of Zelda Wind Waker - I remember when I first saw the game I outright hated the graphical style but eventually I decided to give it an honest try. I don't judge a game based on graphics; if I did then I wouldn't be a retro gamer. However upon playing the entire game with a friend we both agreed that this was the worst Zelda game of all time if not one of the worst games period. Whether it's the clumsy controls, the boring as sin sailing portions or the massive amounts of padding (seriously, you have to get HOW many Ruppees to get those damn maps read!?), we couldn't stand this game.
Now I consider myself a big fan of the Zelda games, I remember playing the original and 2 back when I was a little kid and I loved them even though I could never get anywhere. I even played the hell out of Ocarina while I was stuck in the Water Temple and I tried to do every possible side quest.
But this one, ugh, even the music wasn't good half the time and some of the sound effects made me want to rip my ears off.
I know a lot of people liked this game but for me, this is probably one of the worst games of all time.
