Ok, just for kicks. What videos games have you played that just all out SUCKED or made you really mad that you paid money to rent/buy? It can be any console, handheld or PC game. Feel free to post a few. Just want to see what everyone comes up with?
Friday the 13th (NES) - Oh my god... Can this game be beat? Can you actually last more than half an hour? I'd have all but the counsilor I was playing dead within minutes. Impossible!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES) - Not to be confused with the one they did that was a lesser port of the Arcade TMNT game... this one just sucked! It had a top down view to go to places in the city or whichever map you were on and then switched to the side scrolling when you entered the area. It was just lamesauce after playing that Arcade one in the arcades. I'm glad they actually made that port for the NES and the SNES too.
Pit Fighter (SNES/Genesis) - Plain and simple, should have been called Shit Fighter...

completely disagree about ninja turtles, i loved that as a kid
i took friday the 13th back to the toys r us my mom bought it from so agreed on that
i think that's the only game i ever had taken back to the store so maybe it is the worst game ever
i think the most overrated game ever is Halo

I liked Pit Fighter on the genesis. Dynasty Warriors 5 sucks on the PS2. Run up to a group of twenty enemies and hack and slash them. Maybe one of them will hit back. Just so repetitive.

Pimp My Ride, the two achievements I unlocked in that game haunt my Gamerscore

A game called "Mousetrap" for the Atari 2600 in the very early 80s.
Those days Atari games still cost loads of money...over here in Germany they were around 100-200 DM per game (around $200). As a child my brother and I saved up for a game for months and then went to the shop and bought "Mousetrap". What a piece of shit! It was only fun for about 5 minutes, even by the low standards those days. What the company had done was trick people by putting screenshots from the arcade version (which had much better graphics and more levels) onto the back of the packaging.

Here`s a screenshot Imagine spending $200 for this.

"Alex Kidd The Lost Stars" & "Alex Kidd In Hi-Tech World" on Sega Master System.
I was a big fan of Alex Kidd In Miracle World and couldn't wait to play the other "Alex Kidd" titles but the other 2 paled in comparison .
Lost Stars - Anoying tunes and anoying "AAAAGGGHHHH" when you get hurt.
Hi-Tech World - Too boring

Pat, I actually owned all three of those games.
Friday the 13th did suck. Pit fighter was so so. TMNT was terrible, but I played it because I loved the cartoon.

I remember this game awesome Turtles Game. When you dropped in a coin/credit, it went "KAWA-BUNG-GAH!!!" It was a definate hit around our neighbourhood.
About a year or so later, they changed it. Kept the same coin-op frame but changed the (Circut/Program/Rom) board to this .... This was a pretty good game also, with slightly similar gameplay... Sorry to chuck this on this thread but had to reply
Liked the balloon pumping challenging stage

Anyone remember that 3-d hologram fighting game? It was at the arcade. To me, it was the worst game in the arcade.

Off hand...it would be the first Silent Hill for the PS One. Suck-diddly-uks!!!
I bought it right out of the gate as I was hooked on Capcom's Resident Evil 2, and thought Silent Hill would be comparable. Wow was I wrong. The game blows and was so mad I wasted My cash on it.
Taught Me a lesson to rent first before I buy.
Right now, playing Resident Evil 5 on the PS3.

PS. Subzero...I do remember the quarter games of the Turtles and the Simpsons, too. They were a trend at the time of multiplayer quarter arcade games, like Guantlet, and the X-Men.

When I first bought an XBOX 360 Arcade(don't buy an Arcade btw) I bought a game with it too, Turning Point Fall of Liberty.
It had a cool premise,the Germans actually "won" the war by invading America and you were playing as a construction worker and you manage to take out the Germans almost single handedly...shitty graphics and just overall shitty game. I played it and wrapped it in about 2 hours and returned it the next day to get Call of Duty 4.

Here is another annoying game. I tried playing this over my cousin's house a number of times, but it was impossible! It's called Night Trap and it was for the Sega CD attachment. It was the game that caused a big ole fuss because it had a scene were a girl takes off her shirt and is in a bra. Yeah, a fuss over that. My how times have changed, huh?
Anyhow, in the game you have to go all over the rooms of the house and watch a group of kids who are staying in a vacation home alone for the night. One of the kids is an undercover agent that works with you. The house is outfitted with traps and during the night these vampire things that don't look like any vampires I ever saw capture the kids. It is your job to catch them before they get everyone.

c'mon you can't call a classic like silent hill the worst game ever
if you think it's overrated fine but no way it's the worst
