WTMG's Jordan Hawes: "Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded is a very ambitious game to try and create a VR version of especially on mobile hardware. That being said, it would have been better to make a ground up VR game for Hitman instead of trying to do a very limited and unpolished VR port of one of the best entries in the series. From the 2D cutscenes and the horrible in game visuals, to the limited VR implementation I have to say this is by far the worst way to experience this fantastic video game."
WTMG's Leo Faria: "We know that negativity catches people's attention, and that there will always be a lot of bad games released in a specific year, but 2024 was a weird case. It was actually really hard to come up with a list comprised of twenty lowly-reviewed titles published over the past twelve months, and we even had to stretch the minimum requirements of what is even a "low score" in order to even be able to come up with such a list.
Maybe WayTooManyGames became too kind? Did we just avoid reviewing what was really bad, out of sheer reflex? Maybe it was just a mere case of fate, of us not being put in front of what was actually stinky in 2024. Or maybe, just maybe, and that's what we are hoping for, games are starting to come out of the convenyor belt at a decent state. There were lots of disappointing titles released in 2024, as well as purely mediocre outings, but truly bad stuff? Not a lot, to be honest.
As a result, we do not have dishonourable mentions this time around. Some of the games in this list actually have one or two redeeming factors. Some of you might even say they are not bad, and we'd understand some of the cases. Well, we'd weird the hell out if you said that about the actual bottom feeders of this list, but hey, opinions and whatnot. Without further ado, let's give these unfortunate 2024 contenders a moment to "shine" for the last time."
The Gollum Award 2024 nominations are: Starfield DLC, Dragon Age, Dragon's Dogma, Concord, and Suicide Squad.
A bafflingly bad version of Hitman, and an equally bad VR game as well
VRTechTube:
Hitman 3 has been rebuilt from the ground up in this Meta Quest 3 exclusive. We finally have some gameplay footage. So let's take a look at everything we learned from the new gameplay trailer for Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded
I wonder if it’ll shine better on the stronger psvr2 hardware.
