    Let's try to put some thought into it when creating new threads, we've had this question asked quite a few times now and the responses are always, obviously, the same. We rather see threads where some debate or personal opinions can be had or read than threads consisting in lists of favourite/worst games, consoles, etc. that leaves no room to comment and aren't too interesting to read.

    Maybe it's time for my all encompassing list of favorites thread I mentioned a couple weeks ago

    Well, there isn't a whole lot of explanation required when somebody mentions Superman 64. It's one of, if not thee, worst games of all time. Really, the only reason anybody plays it is simply to see how bad it truly can be.

    Although I'd say we should change the topic to something like "worst game you discovered yourself". Virtually the same topic, but we wouldn't have people yelling Superman 64 and Big Rigs repeatedly.

    Hence why I said obviously.

    Prison Tycoon 4...its not that worse though, its a great time killer and somewhat boring because its a simulation game.

    Singular, not plural. We don't want members to start a "my hate list is bigger" competition.

    I take offense to this. Certainly there were ports that weren't all that well executed. But the game was conceptually unique, and the original in arcades used a trackball for control (which elevates the game to being awesome).

    Pretty much any game by Mindscape for the NES is a disasterpiece. One of the worst they ever created was Conan. I think the Angry Video Game Nerd's look at it in his Schwarzenegger episode was completely justifiable. It's that terrible.

    ^^This. What's strange is that a lot of the games released by LJN were developed by RARE, and that in of itself is not one would expect. Just goes to show that RARE weren't complete geniuses in some of their craft.

    This is a hard question. I mean... are we talking technical wise? If that's it, then I would have to say Fallout New Vegas, which is such a horribly buggy game that when I finally got rid of it, the thing had locked up/crashed 10 times within an hour, combined with having a a one in three shot of always clipping into the ground even with patches.

    A game that offended me the most? I'd have to say that Fire Emblem game with the beach fanservice DLC.

    One that was just a massive let down? Akaneiro: Demon Hunters, a f2p that I stupidly paid 10 USD for on Steam, only for the team to be reduced to one person and the game is all but abandoned now.

    I just can't come up with one single game that embodies all of these...
