Side scrolling shooters have been populating the gaming landscape since the very first games were being released. Games such as the classic Metal Slug series or the recent and quite fun Shank titles have continued to shape up the genre to a point where innovation is now the name of the game to break through the market. Sine Mora, with its innovative time mechanic won quite a lot of praise, and well deservedly at that.

Rich at GameSpew writes: "Whether it’s because of terrible controls, boring gameplay or even just downright ugly graphics, a bad game is a bad game. Unfortunately, I’ve been subjected to quite a few over the last couple of years on the PS4, and so I thought I’d point out the worst of the worst; my top 10 worst games on PS4 in fact.
Hopefully you’ll heed my words and stay away from this ragtag bunch of putrid excuses for video games. I’ve played them so you don’t have to!"
