Top 10 Worst Video Games of 2014


waste of money waste of time
I need something cute but super quick
can you help me find some things welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
worst games of 2014 suitable for this
list we’re looking at the worst of the
worst these are the games littered with
glitches broken gameplay bland
characters and stories that make you
wonder how they made it into development
hey when you got a booger way up there
you need to dislodge it somehow we
decided to pass on covering indie games
as well as steam early access titles
especially since some early access
developers were known to have used the
copyright takedown process for criticism
of their games this year when we debated
this list we realized that there were a
lot of titles that were disappointing
but not flat-out terrible so if you were
expecting the likes of destiny or
Assassin’s Creed unity check back in
January 2015 for our top 10
disappointing games of 2014 just a
little bit further let’s hope there’s
something left ok number 10
duck dynasty this is going to be good if
Kim Kardashian can have a video game why
can’t the Robertson family well if any
reality TV star can make a game out of
their 15 minutes of fame stop this boat
right now and let me jump off something
is afoul somewhere we are losing water
and we don’t know where it’s going this
game is about as good as you’d expect
come in with the lowest of expectations
then lower them some more as the
gameplay is pretty much driving a truck
or boat to a location murder all of the
wildlife and then go to another location
and do the same thing those others there
are some minigames like fishing
scattered throughout but honestly it’s
not worth your time a lot of build up
but just didn’t deliver in the end did
it number 9 enemy front this is a story
of resistance World War two shooters
aren’t anything new so they have to be
really unique to stand out however it
seems that developer CI games didn’t get
that memo because this game is as
generic as it gets with its cons far
outweighing the pros if there are any
pros we like seing new additions to the
FPS genre but as it stands this game is
an unpolished mess with soso graphics a
poorly told story and disastrous AI this
has been done so much better so many
times before number 8 the amazing
spider-man 2 will be disappointed every
time video games based on movies have a
history of being terrible even those
with the promise of web slinging hopes
were still relatively high for this one
seeing that the spider-man 2 game
released in 2004 was actually pretty
good sadly the only thing amazing about
amazing spider-man 2 is how it botches
everything
the story barely follows the movie and
the gameplay tries so hard to be Arkham
Asylum and fails so bad
number seven Warhammer 40,000 storm of
vengeance here we go hey remember ride
to hell retribution a game so bad that
it made our worst games of all time list
well the developers behind that
trainwreck decided to tackle the
Warhammer franchise and they failed
miserably terrible AI yawn inducing
gameplay and a backdrop that makes no
effort to be interesting tagging the
Warhammer name on this poor excuse for a
tower defense game feels like an attempt
to garner interest but it just adds more
permanent injuries to an already long
list of insults number 6 escape Dead
Island stick with me kid
you’ll learn a few things Oh Dead Island
no one’s really ever forgiven you for
that reveal trailer fiasco half day but
at least your core games are relatively
entertaining in escape however the key
components of a good old-fashioned
zombie fest are glaringly absent in this
title the gameplay is a repetitive for
the horror is non-existent with lazy
zombies health that regenerates and
plenty of ammo if things get too tough
as for the story it’s nothing to write
home about
it’s neither so bad that it’s good or so
cheesy that it’s hilarious the ninja the
skipper and the douche so better luck
with Dead Island 2 though to be honest
this series is testing our patience
number five Dungeon Keeper mobile and in
case you forgot a bio from a place of
this faint Allegro
it’s nice seeing developers showing
old-school hits some much-needed love
and affection
maybe they’ll add a bit of flair to make
them feel current in these new gaming
times or maybe the developer could turn
an underappreciated classic into a
pay2win disaster
that’s pretty much how EA treated this
cult classic gem a textbook example of
the very worst aspects of both mobile
gaming and corporate cash grabber e the
handy news 5 second number for Soul
Calibur lost swords your enemies will be
quite severe another highly established
franchise that tried to jump into the
free-to-play bandwagon but overshot the
wagon and fell off a cliff we should be
thrilled with a free fighting game but
instead were heartbroken this isn’t the
brilliant fighter that it should be
it’s a strange single-player quest Athan
for items with dumbed down gameplay
removal of ring outs and an excusably
tiny character roster and yeah you heard
that right
single-player a fighting game without
multiplayer is kind of missing the point
Soul Calibur and its fans certainly
deserve better
ko number 3 Yaiba Ninja Gaiden Z know
the Ninja is stealthy the ninja is
deadly the Ninja has panties being
rained down on him I’ve always preferred
women’s underwears to men’s this this is
ninja gaiden right did we put the wrong
game on our consoles nope it’s Ninja
Gaiden complete with zombie clowns and
so I’ll be clowns really
and that’s not even taking into account
the erratic gameplay that moves so fast
that it’s really difficult to keep up
not helped by the terrible camera which
has a mind of its own this game is just
trying way too hard to be stylish you
can just imagine the creator’s thinking
this is what the kids are into these
days right number two sonic boom rise of
lyric look at us go you know that kid
that tries really hard not to get an F
but gets a D maybe even a c-minus that’s
not Sonic Sonic really deserves that F
not cool Sonic we thought sonic games
couldn’t get any more terrible than the
disastrous Sonic oh six but boy did rise
of lyrics change all that we’d be fine
with the new direction of the game if it
wasn’t really boring with Sonic moving
at a slow jogging pace speed sections
that feel rip from a bad temple run
clone and combat that’s dull button
mashing not to mention frequent
framerate issues and glitches that allow
you to skip large portions of the game
if anything those duct-tape limbs were
more symbolic to the franchise than they
were actually intended to be
before we get to our number one let’s
take a look at some dishonorable
mentions
number one Rambo the videogame we can’t
figure out why this game was made was
there really high demand for Rambo to
have his own game
is there an upcoming movie we don’t know
about whatever the case this game is
here and Rambo’s never looked so
piss-poor the gameplay is pretty much a
rail shooter with QuickTime events and
even for a rail shooter these sequences
are idiotic
they couldn’t even get slide to reprise
his role for this game instead having
dialog ripped from the actual films
don’t push it I’ll give you a war you
leave I guess it goes without saying but
you’re far better off watching the Rambo
movies then attempting to play this
do you agree with our list are there
more games from 2014 that you wished you
