Ten of the Best Gaming Guilty Pleasures

Every form of entertainment has some products that fall into the “guilty pleasure” category, and gaming's no exception. Whether they're so-bad-they're-good, or games with some sort of hilarious flaw, or cheesy cult classics, or just the sort of thing you wouldn't want anyone to catch you playing, what follows is a list of ten games that you should definitely play – just maybe not for the reasons the developers hoped.

Clicked on it for the bewbs, but it was a really good read actually.

Just like Playboy back in the day...

lol I love how this guy tries to claim that he loves DOA Beach Volleyball and stresses over and over that it isn't because he enjoys looking at pixelated boobs, but then goes on to say he hates every aspect of the game, the volleyball sucks, the minigames suck, he's ashamed for having it in his collection but for some reason he still seems drawn to it.... and then again reiterates using unbearably sophomoric language that it isn't because of "2 jiggling bouncing reasons" as he calls them, all the while accusing the game of being unbearably sophomoric... lol ha

OhMyGandhi4829d ago

what about Pokemon or Animal Crossing?

dead_eye4828d ago

Wasted far to many hours on that game.

Now that Hayashi has taken over expect DOAX3 to feature only the guys and all of the mini-games will be removed. Also, DLC volleyball colors.

lol...

He might introduce sixxaxis jiggly though. That is Hayashi's best contribution so far.

Onechanabara: Bikini Samurai Squad. I'll admit I bought it just because of the opening cut-scene with Aya putting on her panties.

Video Games Proud To Not Be For Everyone

Plenty of games have made a name for themselves as being proud of the fact they’re not to everyone’s taste over the years.

If you make something for everyone, you please no one.

I mean I can do without nintendo games if given the choice. They are not nearly as mature rated as the average.

Yeah but I use my Switch OLED primarily for anime booba style games (visual novels and JRPG's) and ultra violent FPS's. Far from kid friendly, lol

The problem with that line of though is that games have never been as much "for everyone" as in 2025.
The only thing that's not for everyone in gaming lately is the gatekeeping. Devs will try to appeal to as many people as they can, but if you dare have your own tastes and prefer something a bit more obscure, then you have "L takes" because at the moment, popular opinion equals right opinion.
So devs should simply own the fact they water down their games and go Hollywood to please everybody. Then indies will go back to being trendsetters that are different from AAAs, instead of being roguelike and gacha copycats.

Okay, but "games I'm not meant to love" means I won't play them.
Games are for fun. They're their own art, it's a disservice to reduce them to interactive stories. You can focus on making your audience entertained on a positive way and still stand out.

No game is for everyone. Some games are more mainstream or casual friendly but there is always someone who won’t like it. Same with anything else
