10 Bizarre Titles For Video-Games

The video-games industry has been around for a very long time and throughout the years many titles have been released. Just like everything else, there has to have been a badly, inappropriately named titles. Around the globe you come across badly named products, names and places and video-games are not exempt from this. Obviously, this is not a list to comment on the actual gameplay or quality of the game – but just to highlight that maybe the game could have had a better thought out title. Also, these titles are in no particular order, just 10 that stood out for comedic reasons.

Let’s take a look at a few titles that made me question the developers thinking.

Ha! What were they thinking with some of these? Also, that rubber butt is a thing of beauty

[MrsNesbitt]

It truly is a "Dayyyummmm" moment.

i will add Ninokuni to this list. If you understand french you will understand how bad that title is for a "cartoonish" game.

I thought it said "10 bizarre videogames" so when I saw jackie chan there I was immediately reminded of "Jackie Chan: Stunt Master". Anyone got a spare copy and a loan of a psx?

On Topic...

No "Epic Mickey"? Really? SERIOUSLY!? I mean most of the games in this list made it because the guy made a stretch with some double entendre's at best (and some absolute leaps in logic like CHemist Tycoon), Epic Mickey would haev trumped em all (Mickey = Penis in Ireland/The Uk/ Who knows where else)

[GamerGabs]

Hehe, this made me giggle. 'Half Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy' is another pretty good contender.

There are so many to choose from. Possibly a part two for this particular article :)

[HRD_Games]

"Tales of Game’s Studios Presents Chef Boyardee’s Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa"
and its sequel (that was supposed to come out in 2013),
"The Magical Realms of Tír na nÓg: Escape from Necron 7 – Revenge of Cuchulainn: The Official Game of the Movie – Chapter 2 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa"
are my best examples, and ridiculous games regardless (Post apocalyptic basketball themed RPG anyone?)

[MrsNesbitt]

Amazing titles!

[christian hour]

Hang on... there's a game about Cuchulainn!? With a ridiculous name like that?! Sign me up! (gets practicing with sliothar and hurl.)

[Yukes]

Everything after the original Final Fantasy doesn't make sense! They're popular but the titles of the sequels are bizarre when you think about it

[christian hour]

Final Fantasy is a meta name, it meant it was their last chance at trying to make a successful game before going under. The "Final" in the title had nothing to do with the game itself.

[KilluaX3]

Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars

Now known as Rocket League.

[MrsNesbitt]

Haha I think they'll stick with Rocket League now

[Eterna1Ice]

Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX... Though, i know that they were making fun of themselves.

[MrsNesbitt]

I hope so!

[BrandanT]

The Kirby and the Crystal Shards one was way too much of strech.
