Once in a while it is a nice change of pace so as to tamper regarding all those games that were totally abysmal and not even worth renting. So what are absolute worst titles of the generation so far that one must avoid at all costs.
These are quite possible the Top 5 Worst games of the Current generation.
I'm on the fence whether to buy Ninja Gaiden 3 or not, after reading all tjhose Abysmal Review scores the game is receiving.
But I have high hopes for ASSASSIN's CREED III, BIOSHOCK INFINITE and TOMB RAIDER!!!
As for horrible games, I'd say Terminator Salvation was horrible and just a lame ass cash in.
If it was at least a decent game, the 360 and PC ports wouldn't have been stalled.
It's a Broken game. Trust me.
Just because a game gets "Negative reviews and reception" doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable. And sorry for not paying attention to those reviews, i was too busy coming up with my OPINION.
OT: Where is the original Two Worlds? That sits at the top of the chain for the current gen to me! Worst game ever!
Prototype, Resident Evil 5, The Saboteur, The GodFather 2 and Resistance 2 would be on MY list, Kane And lynch 2 was awful as-well
Just MY OWN OPINION though. You know, if I am allowed to have one and all..
either way, i appreciate your honesty kalo! ive never played haze the full retail game, but i can say that it was the first demo id ever played/downloaded once i had finally signed up for PSN. itll always have a place in my heart.
I played through the entire game co-op and actually had quite a bit of fun with it. It's also rare to have a game that allows you to go online, splitscreen with a friend - and the multiplayer in general was serviceable.
And I think one of the things people forget is just how ambitious Haze was in it's story telling. It really tried to blur the lines between simple "good guys/bad guys" stories that we find in our shooters today and add layers to a conflict where it wasn't so crystal clear what side you should be on. The problem for me was, I like goodguys/badguys. When I kill a final boss, I want him to scream defiance at me and yell how he'll return and from hell's heart stab at me, etc..etc. Instead, I get a dying character crying and asking for his mother in his final moments. It's hard to feel good about that. That's not a reason I play games.
At the end of the day it still moved something like a million copies. That's something 80% of console games released never manage to accomplish in their lifetime. I would have given it a 6/10.
Yes I can concede the gameplay wasn't polished and the mechanics were a bit off...but the combination of hilarious writing, unique boss fights, and fun enemy types puts this above most of those duds imo.
WTF are you talking about, of course their are some bad PS3 exclusives,same goes for 360,Wii, PSP/Vita,and 3DS.
Sadly, this isn't the first time I've seen this happen today.
That said, to put it in the same league as Box Office Bust....I can see why SOME people would find that questionable. Worse games this generation at least EXIST.
Actually there a ton better games than halo ( BF3,MW3,KILLZONE), So, please stop this bullcrap of halo killer , sigh..
Back in 2007 when Haze was released PS3 lacked a great PS3 exclusive shooter (whereas the Xbox had Halo). Hence, Haze was dubbed the 'Halo Killer', as in what playstation has to offer is better than the xbox counter-part. Unfortunately it didn't quite live up to its hype and in my opinion never fufilled it's role as halo-killer, but nowadays the need for a halo-killer has died out because Halo is no longer considered the king of FPS and squad based FPS's like COD and BF have taken the crown. That's not to say that there isn't a market for sci-fi shooters, just it's died down abit since the original launch of the Xbox.
5. Haze
4. Amy
3. Shadow Harvest
2. Quantum Theory
1. Leisure Suit Larry; Box Office Bust
-caddad
Their list does too. I've seen far worse games than Haze this generation. Haven't played the other four, though I can imagine Leisure Suit Larry and Quantum Theory are terrible.
I'd say Lair for instance deserves that place a lot more than Haze.
Turning Point is way worse than Legendary praticly unplayable at moments it makes legendary look like gold lol.
even remember all the Haze hate even though after playing it in a store for a few minutes, it seemed decent.
all the early PS3 adopters back in the day are heroes in my eyes, because there was NOTHING uncooler than buying a PS3 even though it had the best hardware.
So bad. One of the only games where I bought it, completed it, and traded it in the next day.
JK
Though the franchise has been milked a lot but it is hands down the best selling game in the history of video games.
Though it might be the same thing over and over again but there are a lot of people who are already hyped up for Black Ops 2.
COD on the PSVITA would be an instant buy for me.
I don't wanna see CoD fail, but I don't necessarily feel like it should succeed anymore either. I wanna see at the very least, a graphical upgrade with the next installment.
The games on that list are playable and fun to some point ( there´s fun in bad games too you know )
in my opinion the worst games of this gen are mainly for PC and xbox 360 shooters like fall of victory,turning point,darkest of days,conflit denied ops, conduict 2 and many more.
You've cherry picked some bad games sure, but your point is moot when half aren't exclusive to the platforms listed. I would also argue that all your examples are from a few years ago.
Many shooters from this gen belong to the list of bad games and Haze not even DNF belong there those are average.
Rogue Warrior- broken
Darkest of Days- broken
Mindjack- just awful
Neverdead- awful
Duke Nukem- awful
Damnation- terrible
Shellshock2- wtf?
Quantum Theory- seriously, wtf?
Thor- awful
90% of all 3rd party Wii games
Haze does not belong on this list. It was mediocre at best, but there were no game ending bugs and the mp was decent for the time. It's just another generic shooter that was unjustly compare to the genre leader at the time (Halo).
The game was in no ways broken. It looked good at the time, had good controls and was smooth and it was just as playable as any shooter with no gamebreaking bugs that I can remember.
Most of the hate about it was to do with the story and the gung-ho characters.
"With it’s bad level designs, shallow and stereotypical characters, quirky AI reactions"
I could name a different highly regarded shooter that sells millions that I consider even worse in those regards and it only came out last year. Its main character turned me right off it.
"its poor reception on the PS3, the publisher ditched the plans to release it on the Xbox 360 and PC."
Bollocks. Its not enough to keep hating on the game, but they have to make lies about it too. The game was originally going to be multiplat, then went exclusive to PS3 before even releasing and the media crucified it after some idiot called it Halokiller.
Seriously, its time to just let it go.
>trying to get more clicks
Here is another few that never really lived up to the hype
-Perfect Dark Zero
-Leisure Suit Larry BOS
-Blacksite: Area 51
-Superman Returns
-Guitar Hero: Aerosmith
-FF XIII
-FF XIII-2
-Tenchu Z
-Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
-Infernal: Hell's vengeance
-Enchanted arms
-Bullet Witch
Man I can go on forever, but these are the ones I regret buying the most.
QT had a lot of potential and if they were just a bit more original in approach I think it have down well. The game was also begging for a co-op mode......
Don't know for the others on the list, didnt play enough.
and where the hell are duke nukem and saw 2
I got Haze and Amy. What were the remaining 3?
(And please for the love of god, keep these things on one page. Multiple pages for one article is pointless is just shows you're after hits).
