Especially regretful purchases: What's the worst game you've ever played?

[WallachiaResident98]

Aliens: Colonial Marines.

I didn't even buy it, just rented it and I regretted it immensely.

Edit: The likelihood of him browsing this forum is slim to none, but just in case; fuck you Randy Pitchford.

Black Ops 6. My friends really pushed it on to me. I was glad to play with them, but the game blows. Just like COD has since Advanced Warfare.

It's wild how COD went from gritty, not quite realistic but realistic enough shooter to Starship Troopers level sci-fi bullshit in what felt like the blink of an eye.

Edit: I should make it clear that I do know that COD went back to the "realistic" stuff sometime after Advanced Warfare.

I did like Advanced Warfare, it's actually one of my favorite multiplayer modes. But it definitely wasn't a good Call of Duty game. I still think World at War was the best one. Once WWII decided to not have specific flags for a specific faction I knew it was dead in the water. I did really like MW2019 though. Still one of the best Campaigns they've done, then they crapped it down the toilet with the sequel because they decided to cave to pressure from offended people because of one part in 2019's story that was fictionalized. They could've at least done something different instead of just going with a retelling of the original MW trilogy.

Red dead redemption 2 , I don't consider it a bad game but it bored me

Biggest purchase regret is probably Spawn Armageddon.

Worst game I've ever played is probably Dragons Lair NES.

 

[PaleFolklore]

I won't bash it too much, given the fact that it is:

A) An indie game, clearly made with an intent to deliver a product that meets certain quality standards;

B) A game with  some — and I really mean "some" — redeeming qualities about it.

But man, did Children of Morta disappoint me. It really didn't live up to my expectations, but my biggest gripe with it has gotta be THE GODDAMN NARRATOR SHOUTING SO MUCH DAMN EXPOSTION.

It's annoying to the point of being obnoxious. Really hurt the experience. I'm not too much of a fan of rogue-likes, but I really was willing to give the game a chance. Like I said, there are good things about it, but I just can't recommend this. "Patience-draining", to say the least.

I've heard this is among the worst DBZ games, and unfortunately it's the only one that made it to PlayStation Vita. I wonder how it compares to the other oftenly-seen-as-bad DBZ games like Ultimate Battle 22.

Basically the idea wasn't bad, a 4 vs 4 type of game where every character specialize on something for example Gohan is a medic with more senzu beans or Goku that is more of a brawler, the problem is that the CPU of your allies on offline mode is trash, burning trash for example they die quickly and they don't help you and in a game that is about collaborating with your team, causes the game to become an unplayable mess very quickly. Altough that Naruto Sage mode costume for Goku is really cool and a cool callback to the Goku costume in Storm 3.

I came here to say something about it but @Cu-Neo beat me to it, essentially it's not really that bad it's kinda cool but built for multi-player and ends up sucking on your own. It's better than UB22, Final Bout, and stuff like that though.

As far as the thread goes the bane of my existence gaming wise is Scooby Doo & the Cyber Chase on PS1. You'd have to play it to understand but it's a mediocre Crash Clone and after the first world gets intolerable. the physics and depth perception are just terrible. All kinds of cheap deaths. I've tried to beat it like once a year since I was a kid and tap out at the same place.

the other one is Superman 64. I'm probably one of the only people on the planet who's beaten it. I decided on it over Pokémon Stadium 2 or a Tony Hawk game. My dad got 007 World is Not Enough and my brother got Conker. They had a great time with their games together and I struggled along with mine because I chose it and they both tried the first level and realized it sucked and didn't bother playing it with me. It's really not that bad once you get past the rings but it's understandable most people never tried to get past them.

Came very close to buying Back 4 Blood but a friend talked me out of it.
I'm kinda thankful.

I had a feeling. It seemed like a higher quality game at the very least compared to those.

 

[Prism_Red]

Ha! I LOVE bad and especially janky games, they all can be fun to play during drunk nights with friends, we finished Aliens: Colonial Marines, Spoderman 2, we messed around playing Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls on how to messed up the story as much as possible.

OMGGGG I fcking hated Agarest Generations of War it was just soooooo bland unpolished unappealing and grindy I left it at about 75 hours to never touch it againnnn

I know what you feel man, I heard Skyrim was a dope game so I tried it out, after 600 hours I conclude it's just an okay game..

Time and Eternity on the PS3.
It pissed me off so much that i stopped playing video games for 6 months. Effectively killing my motiviation and made me reflect my reason for playing video games in the first place

I planned to play Time and Eternity later for some dumb reason, wish me luck.

Is it really that bad?

 

[SolemnlyDoc]

Killzone Shadow Fall. First game I bought for the PS4 and returned it the next day, awful game

 

[moonbits]

Dragon Ball Z Sagas

Spoiler

I feel like a lot of people in his thread have never played a legitimate awful game, I envy them.

 

[Zeonic89]

Chaos Wars for PS2. Maaaaan that was a crap game.

View attachment 33544

the ending justified the entire game for me

 

[cjl8336]

MK Mythologies on N64 was a heap of crap at a time when I was all about Mortal Kombat, and then 4 happened and it somehow sucked more

 

[Rusk]

It's certainly not worth the price full price.
I would suggest waiting for a good sale.

 

[dropsmegamega]

Consoles: Time and Eternity

PC: Simcity Societies

 

[Viviana Santos]

This game basically cemented that Kazutaka Kodaka is one of the worst writers I've ever seen.

 

[LiberoVulpesLiberoVulpes's icon]

I once bought a CSI game for NDS.

Absolute garbage. Hell i might make a review on it filled to the brim with spite, just for catharsis sake.
