Worst game you've ever played?

[Divisible by Waffle]

I don't mean just seen; the worst you've actually experienced for yourself. For me, it's Hydlide, hands down. Call me sheltered if you want, but I do NOT need an 8-bit dungeon crawler that simultaneously rapes my eyes and my ears. That maddening theme song will be the last thing ringing through my ears as I leave this world, I swear to god. Does this game even have a point? Is it even possible to win? Has any human being ever subjected themselves to its sheer terror for more than five minutes at a time and lived to tell the tale? In a way, I don't want to know.

[Zinger]

Back to the Future for the NES. So much potential, but the developers decide to make it into some sort of bench jumping/pie throwing sim.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Definately The Uncanny X-Men (NES)

[Lenor]

Illusion of gaia for SNES.

Not being one to brag, that I'm some awesome female gamer. I don't tend to try and use it as a pick up line, unless of course I'm trying to hit in my friends little brother, which doesn't happen often, they at least have to be legal. But, this game made me throw the controller at the screen so many times when It first came out, I believe I was around 12, not too sure of that, though so don't quote me.

I never did beat it, after the 393439 billionth time, of ending up stuck in the SAME PLACE; I just said fuck it!

So, to all you fuckers who have beat it out there, go to hell. I hate you!

[Grislygus]

Rune: Viking Warlord. As generic as you can get, bad controls, dull gameplay, shitty gameplay, with THE worst multiplayer ever to grace a console.

Yeah, that game was real tough:rolleyes: :rolleyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes

[RaNkeri]

Predator or Indiana Jones and the last crusade. Both for NES.

[DistantJ]

Sonic the Hedgehog for Xbox 360.

Seriously, it was SO FUCKING BAD.

I used to love Sonic, even on the Dreamcast. And I even thought Shadow the Hedgehog was pretty fun. But this was just GODAWFUL. Cost me £50 and it took me 14 tries to get through the first level just from so many bugs, falling through floors, getting hurt by checkpoints, freezeups, et cetera. And even without the bugs and the stupid 30 second loading times (3 times in each level, about 5-6 times inbetween levels just to load up like 2 lines of dialog at a time!) it would still be a crap game.

So bad.

[Marine]

five words: doctor jekkyl and mister hyde.
Nuff' said

[the_dudefather]

sonic is pretty damn bad, not sure about worst, but the stupidest game i have ever played has to be 'Demolition girl' a PS2 game in which a bikini model becomes Godzilla sized and starts attacking cities, and you have to stop her using helicopters and tanks and perform tasks like scanning her boobs and shooting her with giant needles

[Lenor]

That's almost as bad as playing, a Barbi or Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen game.

I <3 my dream-cast, thanks again to Eric, for finding me one.

Has anyone actually played and beat more then the first hour of 'illusion of gaia' anyways?

[Jeff The Ninja]

Rune: Viking Warlord. As generic as you can get, bad controls, dull gameplay, shitty gameplay, with THE worst multiplayer ever to grace a console.

Thats funny. I have the PC version and i think its awesome. Its only drawback is that it was built off of the Unreal Tournament engine (right down to the controls) but it was still a fun game. Decapitating viking Zombies never gets old. And the Levels are fun to run around in.

But the Worst video game i have ever played. Its The Art of Fighting. That game is horrible. The controls are crap, the enemies are cheap and Only 2 Damn fighters to choose from. At least Fatal Fury (released sometime earlier) had 3 characters to choose from. And i would be more forgiving of a bad game if the sequel fixed these problems so I could forget about the first one (Street Fighter), but they only reinforced the crap gameplay and fixed nothing except the fighter count. Art of Fighting is pure Shit.

[eggyolk]

someone's gonna shit their pants, but metroid prime was the worst 50 dollars i've spent

[GADZOOKS]

space gets boring, I agree it was bad BUT NOT THE WORST (it helped i bought it for 7 :lol)

I'm really thinking about this one, I want to give a good response. I'm not going to pull a Marine and pull my opinions from the Angry Nintendo Nerd, you fag :rolleyes

[JohhnyDamage]

The Bouncer (PS2)

[Zomboid]

Has anyone actually played and beat more then the first hour of 'illusion of gaia' anyways?
Yeah, I got up to about 3/4 of the way through and started doing something else and forgot to finish it.

[Goat Cheese]

Lemmings for the sega genesis. Granted I was too young to figure out what the hell I was doing but even after I figured it out i would get stuck over and over again.

[Lenor]

gc, have you mastered the art of masturbation yet, might be more your forte.

[mew barios]

i cant think of worst games off the tip of my head, i can think of ones that disappointed meh greatly though. pitfighter for the snes i purchased for full retail when i was lil, i know even its source material was weak, but i thought itd be at least as good as the genesis version. but insteads, they took out the weapons, crowd interactions and some of enemy fitars. all that was left was two similar lookin people trading similar lookin punches, kinda like urban champion but without the excitement of flowerpots and manholes. i cried for real and learned a valuable lesson about the value of a dollar.

also nightmare creatures 2. i was a big fan of the first and played the hell out of it, it had unlockables secrats an fun hidden paths an tons of secrat attak combos an i liked it a lot :> the sequel though.. had one character. with one combo. loads of bugs and missing textures an animations, flying thru ceilings, falling through floors. it stank of rushed out crap :< the fact that i played it so much trying to imagine it had some redeeming value made it that much worse.

illusion of gaia i thought was pretty entertaining. i never defeated the evil jeweler guy SOLIDARM, but you dint need to kills him to beat the game

[DeadKennedys]

someone's gonna shit their pants, but metroid prime was the worst 50 dollars i've spent

I shat bricks.

I experienced Sonic the Hedgehog for the 360. I experienced girl-on-hedgehog pedophilia/necrophilia/bestiality. I experienced sonic going super saiyan.

And I never looked back.

[Marine]

it seems i once again has beend mocked to pieces, therefore i take my bow, and leave.

[DistantJ]

The glory of the past will never return :(

Well, the new Sonic on Wii looks pretty damn badass, and very old skool. I've ordered a copy so I'll let you know how it is once it has arrived.

[darkvare]

the worst ive ever played was crime life gang wars for the xbox. i got it for 3 bucks and i said ok maybe an hour or two of fun but i pop it in and saw the awful graphics the lame voice acting and atrocious gameplay so i only played 10 mins and no more

[rockets redglare]

I used to hate Raid on Bungeling Bay (NES) with a passion. I'm sure if I played it today, I'd feel the same.

[Moobs]

I don't know about my worst game but my worst franchise of games is Sims. All sims games suck balls and i hate all of them :(

[Black Flag]

ha guys did you ever play magmax?

[Lenor]

rope erasers: ha why do you hate illusion of gaia that's a good game
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: dude, thats creepy, i was just going to post in that thread.
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: Because I played it for SNES, when I was i think 10-12 i dunno, but anyways I could'nt get passed this one fucking part no matter what the fuck I tried, and since the internet was'nt so easily accesable then, i was kinda fucked. And Nintendo Power was'nt much help either :/
rope erasers: ha i totally beat that game
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: ha i totally hATE YOU
rope erasers: nintendo power is never any help
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: It was BACK THEN!
rope erasers: ha not really
rope erasers: they always had stuff i already knew
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: true, although I think i read every issue from 92'-94' from front to back for fun :/
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: And they did have a zelda - a link to the past guide in one issue.
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: at least I beat lemmings ;-)
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: thats about as bad as saying 'i can't get past level 10 on tetris for my gameboy'
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: o0o0o can i post this *changeing screen names of course*, in that thread, its kinda funny :-)
rope erasers: ha just post it the way it is
rope erasers: doesn't matter
rope erasers: nobody can IM me if i don't want them to
XxCh33s3 WhiZxX: ok cool..

SHUT UP BLACKFLAG! <3

[GADZOOKS]

I want to SUMMER OLYMPICS for the Sega Genesis. Awful Controls for awful events no one cares about. But maybe I am a little biased.

I want to say E.T., because we had it and it was terrible. But we played it enough that it wasn't so bad that we stopped right away. Same goes for another favorite for worse games list, Superman 64.

I want to say Donkey Kong Country 3, I mean replacing Donkey and Diddy with a fucking Baby was the dumbest idea since adding bad guitars to Prince of Persia (when adding guitars to anything is usually a good idea). Not to mention the pointless addition of boating to level area to level area. (SOUNDS LIKE WIND WAKER HUH? Shutup, I liked that game :()

I'm going to have to say Ballz for sega. I turned it off after 5 minutes of play. Terribly excuse for graphics, all the environments looked the same, awful music with even worse sound effects, stupid shit happening on the background, and terribly bad controls that frustrated me to hell. I know it was a game that didn't try to take itself serious, but it's not even good for a free download game, every aspect of the game was brought down to the lowest common denominator. It was as if there were trying to make a 3D fighting game and used those as models but then hit a wall and found out they couldn't do any better with Sega's capabilities, so they scrapped whatever idea they originally had for this shit. That's the logical idea I have of the game existed, the other it was made by one adult retard being egged on my 12 5-year olds (and their dalmation puppy).

There might be worse games out there, but Ballz is a game I hate like no other. I hate it like I hate Carlos Mencia, Racism, Terrorist, or Father Spaz.

[Lenor]

I completely have to agree with gadzooks, with Donkey Kong Country 3. Diddy was cool, especially for certain areas. Even the Random animals you could ride throughout the game were neat, but how much more shit needs to be added?

[Cliff Steele]

magmax was a top down shooter, right? with like a pixely little mech ship deal on nes? i played that every time i went to my cousin's house, i always forgot how bad it sucked

[Lenor]

Shit, I forgot about Double 07 , or whatever it was called. First person Shooting game, that just really sucked. I think my friend Ben and me burned pretty holes in it.

heh, that happened alot, when I think about it. :eek

[Zinger]

I thought of another one....TOYS for the SNES. Seriously, if anyone got past the first level in that game, I'll be very impressed. I would torture myself for hours just trying to figure out what to do; searching every nook and cranny of the first level, and nothing. :\

And yes, this is TOYS as in that shitty 90's movie starring Robin Williams.

[Lenor]

That movie suck's.

Enough said.

[Kaiser_wilhelm]

The worst game I've ever played was called Marmalade Boy and its an SNES game thats japanese. I think it has something to do with planning out your day with a calender anyway its boring as hell. My friend used to have pit fighter for the genesis but we couldnt play it because it was a mature game :( :(

[ArrowX]

DinoCrisis 3 >:

It was an amazing game but the camera angles they used made it easily the most terrible game in existence. Whats worse is the ending, the computer decides that the most advanced and survivable animal for earth is a gigantic 2 headed snake-dinosaur thats easily killed off in less than 5 seconds by the "final wasp"

[the_dudefather]

played possibly the worst game in my life a few days ago, Beverly hills cop for PS2, a budget FPS that takes ropey controls, bad AI and terrible graphics to a whole new level

[EisigerBiskuit]

Acro the Bat

Stupid enough title to remind you how much it blows.

[eggyolk]

how could i forget star fox adventures? it was a cheap zelda clone i think but it failed in so many ways. has anyone had the displeasure of playing this?

[DistantJ]

I quite enjoyed Starfox Adventures. It was a bit rushed but I liked it.

[ArrowX]

oh also that Robocop game on the xbox.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Lemmings for the sega genesis. Granted I was too young to figure out what the hell I was doing but even after I figured it out i would get stuck over and over again.
BANNED.

[Fathom Zero]

Toy Story for the SNES. The horrible controls during the RC missions made me sick.

[GADZOOKS]

Can I change my answer? Acro the bat reminded me of an awful game.

Alfred the Chicken, bland graphics, terrible level design, boring as shit enemies. It was just BAD BAD BAD all around. I mean Ballz was bad, but I knew alfred sucked seconds into it.

[Zomboid]

Bram Stoker's Dracula for Genesis. I owned it as a kid and thought it was good, but I recently played through it again and...wow. Extremely bad game.

[EisigerBiskuit]

Toy Story for the SNES. The horrible controls during the RC missions made me sick.
Same, but for the genesis. I enjoyed the first levels swinging on my backstring, but fuck. I'm out of batteries! :x

[Zinger]

If you mean Aero the Acro-Bat, that game was awesome.

[Rongi]

Superman 64. It looked and played like a retard covered in elephant shit

[Divisible by Waffle]

Hahahaha, I remember Superman 64. I played it at a friend's house...a very hard game to sit down and play, actually. But Hydlide is maddening enough to drive someone to murder, so it remains on the top of my "Holy fuck, this game should not exist" list.

[arg_zombies]

Creatures for PS1 - I played it in a demo, and I ended up breaking the disc into little bits and putting them in the fire.

[Zomboid]

Fuck you.

[arg_zombies]

Me? or someone else, because Creatures really sucked.

[Grislygus]

Creatures was interesting, I spent a shitload of time playing the sequel as a kid (as well as routinely crashing it through third party mods).

[arg_zombies]

I never really understood it - I didn't like the little thingies, they made weird noises at me

[MarioRPG]

Two notes about Superman 64:
1) I saw a copy at a flea market for $59. That's fifty-nine.
2) My cousin bought it when it was brand new. Yeah, best 50 or so he spent.

[Lenor]

zomboid just likes to randomly spew out nonsense. Don't take it personally.

[Zomboid]

Uh huh. Coming from a dumb skank who regularly talks for hours on end about nothing in particular.

MY SCHOOL IS SEEDED 4TH IN BASKKRENTNDGAAAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!

The fuck you comment was obviously directed at you, zombies, because it was directly underneath your post. Nightmare Creatures was really fun. I remember it being hard, but it was fun.

[Lenor]

Dude, are you ever going to drop that shit? It was a joke. Why not comment on how I also said my favorite color is CLEAR and I like to watch the wind go by.

[Fathom Zero]

Nightmare Creatures was quite fun when I played it on the DC.

A very un-enjoyable game from when I was a kid was James Bond: 007 for the Gameboy. It took me months to find that goddamned hammer only to die shortly later at the hands of some boss. Argh.

[Lenor]

Zero, I mentioned that game earlier. Although I didn't specify the console.

I'm guessing nobody but zomboid actually reads what I say.

[Fathom Zero]

I'm sorry. You're on my ghetto ignore list and I can't really see what you say all of the time, just when it tickles my fancy.

[Zomboid]

You just redeemed yourself a little, fathom.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

That "the Real Ghostbusters" game for the original GB was also pretty terrible.

[executioneer]

zomboid i think he was talking about "creatures" not "nightmare creatures" :(

[Fathom Zero]

That "the Real Ghostbusters" game for the original GB was also pretty terrible.

As was The Extreme Ghostbusters for the GBC.

[Rongi]

ghostbusters for the nes was fucking terrible as well

[Lenor]

HA zomboid HA ..

What's your excuse for not having me on ignore?

[Zomboid]

zomboid i think he was talking about "creatures" not "nightmare creatures" :(
I didn't even know there was a game just called creatures :(

Lenor - I thought we've been through this. You're really fun to laugh at. Seeing you try to mock someone is like watching a retard try to battle his way out from under a soaking wet carpet while vomiting all over himself.

[Lenor]

OH SNAP CRACKLE POP!

But we've already been through this: I don't try to mock anyone, I just like to make myself laugh. I'm more nice then anything else, you dipshit motherfucking homo.

ha see, that just made ME.. AND I SAY ME.. laugh.

[Zomboid]

For some odd reason, when I read that, I instantly got a mental image of you laughing and clapping like an imbecile while you watched a ball roll across your yard :)

[Lenor]

In this mental image am I naked and jumping up and down?

[arg_zombies]

Haha, it's like an internet fight, just lacking the insults....

[Zomboid]

Can someone ban juttin jr already?

[arg_zombies]

Says you? You're the one who started the insults. If anyone was to be banned, it'd be you.

Oh, and I'll take the,
'I didn't even know there was a game just called creatures :('
as an apology, shall I? :)

[Lenor]

I guess I'll take that as a yes, zomboid. :lol

[arg_zombies]

No, I'm not trying to goad you on or take the piss or anything, I just don't like to hold grudges :P

[Zomboid]

No, lenor. You were wearing winter clothes and a helmet with a bib to catch the gallons of saliva coming out of your mouth as you cackled.

Juttin - Yeah, I'm not gonna be banned. You can take my initial fuck you as an insult without any real reason behind it now, but that comment was to willy, not to you.

edit: It'd be great if I could stop hijacking this thread, but I am just so compelled to reply :O

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Bionic Man for the NES>:

[Lenor]

Uh, winter clothes with a helmet and a bib?

I could still look HAWT!!

[mew barios]

bionic man? i hope you dont mean bionic commando :(

[Ant10708]

no he means bionic man. That is why he said that.

[mew barios]

since there isnt any game called bionic man for nes i kinda doubt that's what he meant thanks

[Lenor]

UH, who wants a cookie?

No need to fight guys!

[arg_zombies]

I just thought of one:
Silent Hill (1 or 2 or something)

It's not a bad game, but it has some really annoying camera angles!! I've died so many times because the camera has twisted away behind a bridge or something :(

[Zomboid]

I kinda feel like arguing with mew over NES games is like just a lost battle right off the bat :(

I wish more people felt this way.

[arg_zombies]

heh

I only have a NES emulator, with shit all games, so count me out - i know nothing :P

[Chojin]

Super Monkey Ball for Wii :<

[Sacks]

Shit, no kidding.

[Schimid]

Shepherd, for Super Monkey Ball, for Wii.

[arg_zombies]

All this 'super monkey' stuff just reminded me of Ape Escape - but that was an amazing game :)

[executioneer]

evil dead: hail to the king for playstation was by far the worst game i've ever played >: >: >: >: and i bought it when it first came out, so it was 50 bucks >: >: >: >:

[executioneer]

close second: master of orion 3, because for fuck's sake, how do you screw up an awesome game series this bad people i mean christ fucking kill yourselves please

[executioneer]

i'm using italics for shouting instead of all caps what do you think about that guys

[arg_zombies]

I think that milk was a bad choice.

[Fathom Zero]

Here's one that I liked very much, but other people thought was the worst game ever:

Revolution X.

I had it for the Genesis and I remember having a very fun time playing it all the way through. I never found all the members of Aerosmith, though.

MUSIC IS THE WEAPON.

[Divisible by Waffle]

Hahahaha, you actually played Revolution X? I remember reading about that in Seanbaby's "20 Worst Games Ever" article.

I saw a video of Bubsy 3D on Youtube, and it's just as mind-numbingly horrendous as that article says. It would be #1 on my list (yes, beating out Hydlide) if I ever got a go at it. Which I hope I'll never get, or accept if I ever do.

Also, how the fuck do you make a bad game based off of Evil Dead? That takes some skill.

[arg_zombies]

I saw a video of Bubsy 3D on Youtube, and it's just as mind-numbingly horrendous as that article says.

You're lucky Bubsy isn't in this thread :lol

[Divisible by Waffle]

I can't speak for any of Bubsy's other games, but Bubsy 3D looks like it deserves its own private level of Hell.

[Lenor]

Silent Hill rocked, especially on LSD. heh

But true the controls always pissed me off, like resident evil. Pushing up is down, Pushing down is up, left is right.. what the fucking hell? I ended up walking in circles for the first hour I was playing that game every fucking time.

[Bubsy]

bubsy 3d is A DISGRACE to one of the greatest series ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's still pretty fun though on it;s own! and busby's hilarious asw always!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Black Flag]

magmax was a top down shooter, right? with like a pixely little mech ship deal on nes? i played that every time i went to my cousin's house, i always forgot how bad it sucked

it was a side-scrolling shooter where the stated goal was to collect all the parts of your space-ship and turn it into a mech that amounted to nothing more than a really tall, easily shot space-ship. then you're supposed to kill this space dragon thing to beat the game but if you kill him you just keep going until it loops back to the beginning and you run into the dragon again, effectively accomplishing nothing.

the looping thing was annoying and what was worse is it only takes about 3 minutes to progress through the entire game before you're back at the beginning. it's not even like pac-man or something where you keep doing the same levels but they get harder. it's exactly the same no matter how many times you loop through it. plus it's super ugly.

[MarioRPG]

Haha, I thought of another one. COBRA TRIANGLE. I remember I saw a photoshop on SA that renamed it "throw your controller at a fucking wall!" and it was the truest thing I've ever seen.

[Zomboid]

evil dead: hail to the king for playstation was by far the worst game i've ever played >: >: >: >: and i bought it when it first came out, so it was 50 bucks >: >: >: >:

Which one was that? If it was the first one then yeah, I heard it was horrible. I played and enjoyed the beat em up one though.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

bionic man? i hope you dont mean bionic commando :(
My bad. Bionic Commando. Not really one of the worst games ive ever played but the bionic claw, as I recall, was useless for dodging bullets (jumping would be more usefull in this game).

[timrpgland]

I thought that's what made Bionic Commando a fun, challenging game...

[irish]

Mario's time machine on SNES, educational and simply awful.. I did not get the mini game with the surfing and mushrooms at all :S

My brother traded our copy of Link to the Past for that in an evil game shop =(

[MarioRPG]

Surfing game...? What?

[irish]

Whenever you chose a date on the time machine that was wrong or something you had to do a little surfing game where you had to collect 10 mushrooms or something :S
Then you fell into a whirlpool when you just couldn't take it anymore and went back to the time machine

[Deadbolt85]

Devil may Cry 2 Worst piece of crap ever.

[Lastpatriot]

Am I the only one who has subjected himself to the horror that is Awesome Possum? I mean, when I was 4, I willingly rented Bubsy, and I still thought AP was utter shit.

Games like Gilligan's Island and X-Men for NES don't count. Those aren't even remotely playable.

I'd put Final Fight: Streetwise up there. Shit graphics, bad controls, annoying voices, and no Haggar.

[Zomboid]

What? Haggar is in there.

[arg_zombies]

That reminds me of Mortal Kombat Deception, I could never find the 4 armed guy :tear

[Lastpatriot]

What? Haggar is in there.

So he is...amazing I forgot that.

[ArrowX]

Mortal Kombat: Special Forces or whatever it was called it was like a shitty fighting force with Jax

[Fathom Zero]

Dude, that game was fun.

[arg_zombies]

The only fun thing about Mortal Kombat was the fact that you could actually beat the opponent shitless for completey destroying you countless times before - gave you a chance to really vent your anger out on the poor, helpless character :lol

[Angryhydralisk]

Hard-pressed to say exactly what's the worst, as I played a lot of shitty games, but I got three I'm confident take the title.

Action 52: Read the two reviews in the games review forum here.
Pokemon Snap: For being a worthless game with this printing stickers gimmick that lasted all of a month.
Any game with the word Eidos in the production title except the Legacy of Kain series

[Lastpatriot]

Any game with the word Eidos in the production title except the Legacy of Kain series


Deus Ex?

[arg_zombies]

ZOMFG THAT GAME IS AMAZING

[Lastpatriot]

Not amazing, but it's good enough to redeem Eidos. Somewhat.

[Schimid]

Timesplitters, too.

[arg_zombies]

TIMESPLITTERS?!

dude, that game was awesome

[Girl Drink Drunk]

I thought that's what made Bionic Commando a fun, challenging game...
If I want a fun and challenging side-scroller Ill take Megaman II, the Contra or Metal Slug series, thank you.

[timrpgland]

That's fine but you can take Bionic Commando along with those. Games don't have to be the best ever to be fun. I've always liked Bionic Commando and it's sitting on my shelf right now.

[Divisible by Waffle]

I saw a game at Game Crazy once and I couldn't see it very well, plus half the label was gone; all I could see was "ando" at the end. So I asked if it was Bionic Commando, and they all laughed at me. :(

[Fathom Zero]

What the Hell is wrong with Bionic Commando?

[timrpgland]

This thread reminds me of what a poster said on my site.


Simon's Quest is not only the single worst Castlevania game all time, it's in probably the top 10 or 20 worst games ever made for a home console.


That one really made me laugh.


Anyway, for me it's really hard to pick the worst game ever. I mean if the game is terrible, I won't play it. Unless I'm playing it because it's bad but that'll mean I'm probably having a good time... I don't know. Games have cluttered my mind. I do find some of these choices amusing though.

[Divisible by Waffle]

Oh yeah, Snake's Revenge on the NES is a pretty shitty game.

[ArrowX]

ALL the Robocop games.

[Rongi]

you're all wrong

Final Fantasy 7 is the worst game of all time






y'all nerds have fun with that one

[arg_zombies]

you're all wrong

Final Fantasy 7 is the worst game of all time

OHMYGODICAN'TBELIEVEYOUJUSTSAIDTHATI'MGONNAGOHOMEA NDGOUGEOUTMYEYESWITHASPORKANDSELLTHEMONEBAYTOMCDON ALDSBECAUSETHEY'REINTOKINKYSTUFFLIKETHAT

I did spend a good few weeks playing it though, but it thankfully didn't make me obsess over it :lol

[Divisible by Waffle]

I really do hate Final Fantasy VII, except for some of the soundtrack.

[arg_zombies]

Soundtrack?
It had one?!

I always just liked the boss fight music which came on when you fought the turks :lol

[kahljorn]

you mean the finger snapping jazz tunes?

[Divisible by Waffle]

Also, for the record, I hate One-Winged Angel. Except for that one violin part, that's kind of cool.

Electric de Chocobo is pretty awesome, though, as is the Turks' Theme and the boss fight song.

[arg_zombies]

Ha, you just reminded me of the 'chocobo dance'. On that little farm place, you can make them sing and dance and you get a random mog materia from them :lol

[timrpgland]

you're all wrong

Final Fantasy 7 is the worst game of all time






y'all nerds have fun with that one

I think I will this time although FF discussions really get old.

FF7 to FF/RPG fans before release: SUPER HYPE! OMG! IT'S NOT ON THE ULTRA 64!!

FF7 to Non-RPG fans: OMG!! COOL!! What is Final Fantasy? 7??!

FF7 at release: AWESOME GAME! GREAT STORY! GREAT CHARACTERS! COOL GRAPHICS!

FF7 now: BOOO! I ALWAYS HATED THAT GAME! BOOO!

Anyway. Say what you will about FF7 but if you don't attach some stigma to it you should be able to see at least what it accomplished. While it brought in many fans that annoyed me to the RPG scene it also boosted the genre in popularity here at American shores almost single handedly.

Personally I think it was a good addition to the series. The series went a different route after that but oh well, there's plenty of games.

What the Hell is wrong with Bionic Commando?
I will not dignify

[Girl Drink Drunk]

That's fine but you can take Bionic Commando along with those. Games don't have to be the best ever to be fun. I've always liked Bionic Commando and it's sitting on my shelf right now.

I thought Terminator 2: Judgement Day (the Genesis port of the side-scroller)was a lot more fun and challenging (well , at least that 3rd driving secuence) than Bionic Commando, and that game was deemed movie-based-game poison. Sorry, but I deny Bionic Commando's right to exist.

[timrpgland]

Are you just going to keep naming games you like better than Bionic Commando to justify it as the worst game ever because of no jump button?

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Im just saying that wasnt fun, the multiple paths made it more confusing, having to use a a claw to go from platform to platform is cumbersome and slow, and I regret spending $4 thinking that it was a "classic" game. Also, I already stated earlier that I had exagerated when I said it was the "worst" game ever.

[timrpgland]

You're not classic. :(

[Girl Drink Drunk]

lol. Anyways, I agree with you about FFVII. Although I think the story in the game hasnt faired quite as well as the SNES games, and some aspects of the game haven't aged well, it made a huge impact. The whole anti- Final Fantasy VII craze going around is a tad rediculous.

[timrpgland]

It has gone a bit overboard. Before I used to get most annoyed by people who were obsessed over the game. Now I get more annoyed by people who bash it like it belongs in this thread. :(

I played it once through and gave it its proper chance because I've always enjoyed its soundtrack, but it's too easy to whore out any character with Materia and make them godlike. I dislike newer FF games that only allow you to use three superpowered characters, as opposed to four slightly weaker characters (unless you overlevel). I don't know why; I like FFIV's idea of five characters best, and I'm OK with the four characters that the other pre-FFVII games give you.

I'm also not a terribly huge fan of its story. I feel like "Oh no, genetic experimentation and pollution are bad!" has been way overused in sci-fi settings, which is what FFVII really is if you think about it. I guess it was kind of a unique turn for the series, but I didn't enjoy it that much. It warranted one play-through (mostly because I wanted to hear what the final boss battle was, but I was sorely disappointed; Bizarro Sephiroth has a much cooler theme song), but nothing more than that.

[Rongi]

I was joking when i said ff7 if the worst game of all time guys

i hope you knew that

guys

[executioneer]

man you knew it would trainwreck the thread come on!

[arg_zombies]

I'M CRYING INSIDE :tear

[Fathom Zero]

I knew what you were saying, Rongi!

Anyway, Bionic Commando for the GBC is one of the best platformers for the system, if not the best.

[timrpgland]

I was joking when i said ff7 if the worst game of all time guys

i hope you knew that

guys

I knew you were joking but I felt like saying that anyway because of the seriousness of the situation. :(

[Divisible by Waffle]

I was joking when i said ff7 if the worst game of all time guys

i hope you knew that

guys

Yeah, but I really don't like it. :(

[executioneer]

i didn't hate it when i played it but i'm starting to due to the influence of the internet

[arg_zombies]

Any of you guys played FF8?
Better Graphics and all, but got bloody boring after a while :(

[executioneer]

i agree with the bloody boring, at least

[Divisible by Waffle]

The Draw system was absolutely awful, I couldn't even finish that one.

[executioneer]

it discouraged me from the whole franchise

i haven't even been slightly interested in playing 9, 10 or 11

or 10-2 or whatever the f*ck it is christ

[arg_zombies]

Hey guys, did you know there was an ff7 2 which was released a bit after - Final Fantasy 7: the Dirge Of Cerberus!
You play as Vince for some of it :eek

Oh and, on 8, I just spent the whole time playing cards :lol

[Zomboid]

Wow that is some big news, thanks!

As for ff8 - I have it only because I borrowed it from a friend a while ago because I really liked ff7 and figured it would be about as good. I started it up and got annoyed with a bunch of different things within the first half hour and just decided to quit.
