"With its content suffering severely from a smorgasbord of bad mechanics, horrendous design, and an unforgivably sluggish pace, the developers of this abysmal joke have perfected a new method of inducing fatigue by using the worst of what's been done in the past and making absolutely certain that on all accounts, the game's title is a complete misnomer. Appallingly bad to a criminal degree, Family Party: 30 Great Games Obstacle Arcade is a disgraceful conflagration that is dying to be silenced." -- Wiiloveit.com
Sonic Lost World, Pokemon Rumble, and Family Party 30 Great Games were chosen as three of the worst games on Wii U in 2013, but the one that truly is the worst as chosen by the votes is...
where is the winner for worst game on ps4/3 and xboxone/360?
i'm gussing PS4:knack
XboxOne:Ryse
PS3:Beyond two Souls
Xbox360:idk?!? Gears is the only exclusive they had this year...
no i want to hear the rest of the joke.. you think i'm upset about any of those games... those games on their list are crap, its not even a joke because their list is true...
It's an ok movie, a really boring game. That's what I thought when I finished it. I mean, it's not like I do a lot of stuff with the controller, not as fighting and strategy games, so perhaps it's just my taste.
@lopez
you can NEVER find a game that is worst than Ride to Hell Retribution this year! that game makes the Aliens game look good!
i thought it was for exclusives. Aliens, Survival instinct and and Ride to hell obviously suck ass the most.
Beyond? Knack? Someone sounds like they are reaching just for something. Beyond was an amazing experience and Knack was fun, maybe not mind blowing bit fun. Ryse sure that was a mess and gear j was kinda pretty decent but the PS ones sounds desperate.
BAHAHAAA!
it makes me so happy to know i buy consoles where the "worst" of their games are ones that i still enjoy.
no, playstation and microsoft arent immune to bad games, but if Knack and Ryse are supposedly the 2 worst games then you must be doing something seriously right. and the fact that you even tried to spin beyond 2 souls as the worst game is a hilarious showing of your desperation.
Wii U shovelware is just on a completely differnet level. i dont even know what any of those gameplay snippets were supposed to be lol.
It's really not that bad. It isn't the refreshing experience that Colors was. but it's a fun game. I just wouldn't pay 50 dollars for it if i could go back.
I would have given it to Mass Effect 3, personally.
I mean, yeah, the game pad gave the game TONS of potential beyond what a normal controller could do, but the way the game was implemented…
It did not get all of the DLC available for the series, and for the other, we all know how heavily the trilogy of the games rely upon having played the previous entries, of having lived through that story and gameplay.
Not only was the game released at the same time as a COLLECTION OF THE WHOLE SERIES ON LAST GEN CONSOLES, they tried to make up for the lack of two game's worth of storyline to play through, with a comic book version of the past two game's important plot points.
That did NOTHING to convey the same sense of drama and struggle that playing through the whole series would have.
Top that off with poor optimization in certain areas of the game[some instances of frame rate drops and areas of bad graphical polish], and it just added up to one big steaming pile of a mess that no Wii U owner should have had to deal with out of a company as large as EA is in this industry.
EA dun screwed up with Mass Effect 3 on the Wii U. Third parties like EA need to live up to their reputation regardless of what they're developing on.
If they can't, then they should just stick to their lazy and comfortable ways by sticking to consoles that always use similar architecture to what they learned to work with, and leave the consoles that require learning new ways of developing games to other third parties with more willingness to learn a system from the inside out and develop for it correctly, rather than always sticking to what they're used to or what's easiest and doing a poor job on porting games as a result.
Fair enough, but that'd still be my vote if we were including games up to this point since launch.
I find it hilarious Chrono posted this.
On topic, I enjoyed Sonic Lost World and haven't tried Pokemon Rumble U. I can understand how all three titles made this list based on reviews, but I'm sure there are worse games than Sonic Lost World.
"Nintendo's launch of the Wii U console has been highly criticized for its lack of innovative titles and the few titles that have been released post launch. Nintendo fans will surely be looking for something new to play on their console this Summer, and with the kids off on Summer Break, Family Party: 30 Great Games - Obstacle Arcade may be just the title you're looking for."
CSM - Family Party: 30 Great Games Obstacle Arcade contains, as is evident by the title, a total of 30 mini-games. Players can compete in these mini-games in a freestyle mode or they can take part in a structured competition that tallies up everyone's score from a series of back-to-back mini-games. Most of these exercises involve solving puzzles or completing simple tasks as quickly as possible. Others are more cutthroat player-versus-player games. Almost all of them require the Wii Remote controllers instead of the Wii U GamePad. During competitions, players are able to customize their own avatar. New customization options are unlocked as players play more mini-games.
Glad I'm wrong xD!
