What is the worst video game?

[CupheadtheCritic]

After returning from Hiatus, I decided to ask the people yet another question: What is the worst video game in your opinion?

To me, it's Elmo's Letter Adventure, Arthur! Ready to Race, and A Week of Garfield, but I'm asking for YOUR opinion.

Need for Speed Most Wanted (2008 release on DVD) has a broken installer on the disc, thanks to a config file error. Once you fix the config file and install, it works fine. But a broken game out of a retail package is pretty-much the worst game ever in my opinion. Silent Hill 4 for PC was also hot garbage, along with UT2004 on 4CDs, vs 1 DVD.

Damn, and I thought Action 52 was bad.

big rigs over the road racing. the game isn't complete, definitely unplayable in its current state, yet they released it.

I can only think of one video game that was bad enough to have hundreds of thousands of copies buried in the desert.

Hm I should play that for the lols.

That's why you pirate it instead.

My thoughts on the worst video games i've ever seen:

• E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (Atari 2600)
• Bubsy 3D (Sony PlayStation 1)
• Awesome Possum Kicks Dr. Machino's Butt (SEGA Genesis)
• Hotel Mario (Philips CD-i)

Isn't that actually Hotel GBAtemp?

Eve Online trinity would delete the windows boot file if I remember correctly. They had to release a guide on how to fix your computer.

Hey you Pikachu was pure garbage

EDIT: Nevermind, i saw you're talking about that N64 game that you used a mic to talk to Pikachu, this one was garbage but not bad

As I said in the previous thread by a long mile the worst game ever is Advanced Lawnmower Simulator on the ZX Spectrum. Yep all you do is mow the grass once you finish you start again and mow the same grass again then the 3rd time the game crashes due to a bug in the program or the programmers just thought nobody would be dumb enough to mow the lawn 3 times lol.

It's one of the contributing factors that led me to being a pirate, yes. The anti-comaumerism is always a driving factor there.

The only way I can play Blur on PC is by means of Piracy, because no digital e-tailers want to sell me a legit Steam key of the game. It's a really fun combat-racing game. Came out during the PS3/360 era.

I was forced to pirate a copy of GTA 4 once because after buying it and not being able to get past the defunct "Games for Windows" bullshit I game Rockstar the finger.

It's not the worst game, but it sure as hell fucking sucks: Devil's Third

The trailer was really good:



Why it turned out the way it did:

I have an overwhelming desire to play this game now

there is only one answer:


„In Desert Bus, you drive a bus from Arizona to Las Vegas in real time.“

Oh I don't think you can handle the excitement of such a wonderful game

 

[x65943]

„In Desert Bus, you drive a bus from Arizona to Las Vegas in real time.“

There is no scenery or obstacles, but the bus slowly drifts to the side - and if you get off the road you are towed back to the beginning in real time

For completing the drive you get 1 point, and then you drive back and get 1 point for that also

The game never ends

There is a charity that is based on playing this game for hours and streaming it

That said since it's a parody game idk if it really qualifies
