Top 10 Worst Video Games of All Time


gee it sure is boring around here it’s
time to stack up the absolute worst
bottom of the barrel completely
horrendous sorry excuses for video games
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
worst video games of all time
considering there’s a lot of terribly
made games we’ve decided to limit the
choices to games that got a physical
retail release that means any mobile
games as well as Steam early access
games are out also if the games got a
console release they have to be
officially licensed for that system
you got lucky action 52 number 10 Drake
of the 99 Dragons
we’re starting off with a matrix wannabe
with a laundry list of problems like its
hyperactive camera that seems to have a
mind of its own and a lock-on mechanic
that doesn’t lock-on resulting in the
main character flailing his arms all
over the place
Oh in terms of story the game starts
with the main character killing himself
even he didn’t want to play pool
obviously the undying dragon does not
protect him from his stupidity number 9
pac-man the Atari 2600 version pac-man
was a huge success in the arcade and
Atari wanted to capitalize on its
success with their home console so
believing that the name alone would sell
the game Atari actually produced more
copies of pac-man than there were
systems sold at the time of course they
also foolishly produced an unfinished
prototype of the game
resulting in flickering ghosts and
painful sound effects
number eight Steel Battalion heavy armor
what was billed as the first serious
triple-a connect title became the poster
child of bad motion control games this
was a mech combat game that used both
Kinect and the Xbox 360 controller but
since Kinect couldn’t read your body
properly while you were sitting down
which you’d want to do while using the
controller to drive your mech the game
was unresponsive and borderline
unplayable it just goes to show you not
everything is better with Kinect number
7 Aquaman battle for Atlantis if
anything this game should have been
titled Aquaman battle to endure
seasickness because the camera makes
most people want to hurl on account of
its tilting the gameplay consists define
enemy fight them in restrictive dull
combat setting and repeat ad nauseam and
don’t even think about exploring because
there are invisible walls everywhere
with no indication whatsoever
number six linked the faces of evil and
Zelda the wand of gamilon
you’re not afraid of dragons are you of
course not
then get my necklace back from GLIAC
okay pretty please
after Nintendo decided to partner with
Phillips to make a CD console they also
allowed the company to use their
licensed characters but Phillips instead
decided to make their own console and
with the Zelda license in their hands
they released these two practically
identical yet poorly made games the
controls were really stiff environments
were made with no foresight and of
course there’s the hilariously awful
cutscenes number five ride to hell
retribution 1% wanna get greasy business
before pleasure sweetheart if you were
to compare video games to movies and
ride to hell would be Tommy why Zoe’s
the room
this girl can do a lot more than just
start an engine it’s not only bad with
terrible controls poorly programmed
bike-riding scenes and endless QuickTime
events but the story is offensively bad
portraying bikers as emotionless killers
and literally every woman in the game as
an object for unsexy dry humping
number four dr. Jekyll and mr. Hyde
absolute torture is the best way to
describe this mess when playing Jekyll
your main weapon doesn’t even work which
is a huge problem in a town where
everyone is mercilessly trying to kill
you
when you do become mr. Hyde your main
weapon doesn’t even shoot straight and
the game kills you if you progress too
far mega fail
number three big rigs over the road
racing over the road is right indeed as
you can literally drive through anything
and everything in this game because the
collision detection herein is literally
non-existent and depending on which
version you have your opponent might not
move at all or stop before the finish
line to declare your winner by the way
you’ll notice that there’s no sound
bytes in this entry that’s because the
only thing you hear is
number two Superman commonly referred to
as Superman 64
mostly because the developers forgot to
put the title on the boxart
this game is notorious for riveting
gameplay like flying through rings do a
challenge fly through rings again do a
challenge again and you get the idea
if it wasn’t bad enough the game has an
extremely unforgiving time limit and is
crawling with bugs and glitches
before we get to the bottom of the
landfill let’s have a look at some
dishonorable mentions
number one et Extra Terrestrial
if you know your gaming history this
should be no surprise programmed in only
six weeks to make a Christmas deadline
the games map is filled with holes
everywhere both visible and invisible
and apparently et can levitate when he
stretches his neck this is the worst
game of all time because along with
pac-man 2600 it almost destroyed the
video game industry thanks to high
licensing fees and the thousands of
unsold copies that ended up in a New
Mexico landfill there are literally
thousands of bad video games out there
so we’d like to hear from you what was
the worst game you ever played and what
made it so bad and for more shocking top
