Top 10 WORST Games of 2016


[Music]
it’s that time of year again just
another day for you and me in paradise
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten worst video games of 2016 for this
list we’re looking at the most loathsome
titles released within the past year if
you don’t see the game you hated the
most on here be sure to check out our
top 10 most disappointing games of 2016
and no man’s guy threw them but he was
caught and arrested number 10
hardware rivals what do you get when you
mix Call of Duty and twisted metal nope
this isn’t a bad joke hardware rivals
lets you pilot a tank called a fast
attack vehicle to blow up your enemies
and take home the glory if there was any
glory in playing this game that is
unfortunately this 20 dollar online
shooter has nothing unique going for it
as it lacks very little content to keep
you interested game modes are just your
run-of-the-mill Deathmatch and capture
the flag the action is bland and
unengaged progression just doesn’t feel
as satisfying as it should be and the
weapon balancing can be really unfair at
times it’s best if you just pass on this
experience number 9 magnets fully
charged
we’ve had a lot of good indie games over
the past few years
magnets fully charged is not one of
those while the gameplay was basic and
easy to learn it wasn’t enjoyable enough
to stick around with gameplay was
tedious and the game doesn’t do anything
with the ideas it has instead each level
feels more like the one that just came
before it fun with a mad difficulty
spike leading to a monotonous experience
[Music]
also for a game whose character designs
are admittedly somewhat creative the
animation lacks personality in other
words this game just comes across as
lifeless and occasionally boring number
eight kickoff revival before the FIFA
games Sega’s football manager and Konami
x’ pro Evolution Soccer we have the
simple series of kick off in the early
90s
unfortunately times have changed keeping
the same control scheme from the older
titles only made the response fulness
and accuracy feel really awkward in
between trying to guess what actions
your player would actually do from the
single button control scheme the AI is
pulling weird maneuvers ranging from
pacing back and forth to driving its
feet into the ground and that camera
placement does not help with trying to
keep up with where the ball is number
seven mighty number 9 after numerous
delays one would expect the extra time
here to be spent polishing up the game
making sure it works and looks nice ah
I’m warning you BEC stay away controls
were fine but the level design was
horrible voice acting was cringe
inducing the game was prone to slowdown
and the art style made the game look
just plain ugly come on we’ll show a bit
of enthusiasm the lack of quality led to
many of the gamers backers to question
their donations to the project was it
really all that atrocious well there
have been worse games but the reputation
it garnered only for it to implode in on
itself is what earns it a spot on this
list
the world must number 6 home front the
revolution
we could just have you watch a highlight
reel to see all of the games issues but
that wouldn’t make this video very
interesting now would it
deep Silver’s take on the homefront
series featured an incredibly dull story
in addition to a cornucopia of bugs and
glitches NPCs behave in strange ways by
running into walls or glitching through
objects even the player character will
go through bizarre animations he’s not
on my list of course he’s not but these
things can’t be planned for pair that
with some choppy frame rates identical
character models and really bland story
missions and homefront revolution became
the sequel that nobody asked for and
nobody should play keep doing what
you’re doing
ready whee chaos then we can rescue my
guys in the confusion number 5 coffin
Dodgers looking more like a game from
the Gamecube days coffin Dodgers isn’t
the addictive and exciting kart racer
it’s trailers advertise itself as
as one of seven old codgers you must
race against death on mobility scooters
around your suburban world sure that
concept is um unique but that doesn’t
make up for some sloppy controls and
really bad framerate drops just turning
your scooter can feel awkward at times
and weapon hits won’t register on a few
occasions with looping loud annoying
audio and the requirement to do some
grinding just to afford upgrades coffin
Dodgers was not the triumphant return
for kart racers number four bombshell
developer 3d realms brings us this
twin-stick shooter not action RPG like
it calls itself between the incredibly
weak story of Shelley bombshell Harrison
and her journey across the galaxy to
rescue the president from hostile aliens
sound familiar
it should because fun fact this game was
supposed to be another Duke Nukem title
I’m looking for some alien toilet to
puck my bricks who’s first
bombshell features some of the most
lackluster level designs and dragged out
boss fights on this list combat tends to
get repetitive early on and technical
issues will obviously show up from time
to time betta check in command top it
off with a lead character trying way too
hard to be cool and bombshell was
nothing more than a dud you just pissed
off the wrong woman number 3
ghostbusters we got our first mission
ghostbusters everyone ready to save the
city from imminent death and destruction
just like our poor mothers yes we are
you might be tired about arguing over
the movie but everyone can agree on this
one many critics and players found
Ghostbusters to be boring and fatiguing
even lashing out against the $50 price
point whoa
it happened again as for these small
presence of playable characters we have
our selection of Ghostbusters with
different abilities but none of them
could add a change of pace to the tiring
combat should you play this game
hopefully for a more reasonable price
don’t be surprised if you find every
level to be basically a copy of one
another not even the local co-op was
able to save this game with fire forge
games filing for bankruptcy three days
after the game’s launch
youch into the line gotcha
number two Alekhine’s gun a Cold War
shooter sign us up well that’s what
players would have said if Alekhine’s
gun hadn’t become the mess it is now in
de misleading or not only did it suffer
from performance issues and bad controls
but it lacks many features that now have
become an industry standard you can’t
skip cutscenes and auto saving is
non-existent he’s right there he’s right
there even though there are a few fun
moments sprinkled in there just isn’t
enough to make up for the poor pacing
and dated visuals while many players see
this as a clone of hitman the game could
have been a success had it not contained
so many issues in its execution before
we get to our worst game of the year
here review honorable or in this case
dishonorable mentions
[Music]
you
number one umbrella core taking the
crown as the worst video game of 2016 is
Capcom’s half-baked and cringe worthy
attempt of turning the horror based
Resident Evil series into a ah eSports
shooter no names in sight well I take
that back intense point-blank firefight
opting me the smart move to cover that’s
one Bravo team down intelligent use of
cover right there instead of campy
survival horror fun we are given a
zombie shooter with clunky mechanics
severe technical issues and incompetent
AI its main multiplayer mode was just
way too chaotic and confusing for us to
even register what is happening on
screen do this day many are now calling
it the worst Resident Evil game of the
entire franchise and that’s in a world
where Resident Evil 6 exists there with
your captain
but your personal vendetta isn’t going
to get us anywhere so do you agree with
our list which games do you think we’re
this year’s worst don’t worry before
they come back we’ll get our chance to
vaporize vengeful class-4 apparitions to
four more higher quality top 10s
