Video games notable for negative reception
A
Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis (2003, GameCube/Xbox) This game inspired the Golden Mullet Awards on G4's X-Play (an award it gives out for the worst games to come out that year, the name deriving from the title character), and X-Play also named it the worst GameCube game ever. The Golden Mullet Awards can be considered as a video game version of the Razzies given out to the worst movies of the year.
B
Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing (2003, PC): This game has a truck-racing premise but features nonexistent collision detection (even on bridges), trucks that accelerate infinitely in reverse (to the limits of processing), stopping as soon as the down arrow key is released, players being able to go up hills at a 90-degree angle, a computer controlled player that does not move, and a complete lack of a boundary preventing the truck from leaving the map were some of the many reasons why this game is considered "massively flawed." GameSpot gave the game a 1.0 out of 10.0, the lowest score ever given by the review site, the lowest score it possibly can give). It was the only time Gamespot ever gave a game a 1.0, and they described it as "one of the most atrocious games ever published." X-Play, a game reviewing TV show on G4TV, said "hands-down, this is the worst video game ever to be released." and was unable to give it a rating because the TV program's rating scale does not have a zero. This negative fame has spawned dedicated fans on several gaming forums. As of current, it has a 4% rating on Game Rankings, making it their lowest-rated game. It also has an average score of 8 out of a possible 100 at Metacritic, making it the worst-reviewed game ever on that site.
Bubsy 3D (1996, PlayStation) Bubsy 3D was panned by critics and fans alike due to its confusing control schemes and poor camera angles.[citation needed] It was featured on Seanbaby's EGM Crapstravaganza: The 20 Worst Games of All Time list.
C
Cassette 50 (1983, Cascade Games Ltd) a compilation of games described as being "so bad it caused physical discomfort", "beyond awful" and "a piece of crap collection". It inspired an annual crap game competition and a site reviewing bad games.
Custer's Revenge (1982, Atari 2600) a highly controversial game, consisting of moving a naked and heavily pixelated General Custer across the screen to rape a Native American girl (tied to a cactus) while dodging arrows. It is considered by some to have one of the worst premises ever in a game, and was ranked #1 on Gamespy's "Ten Most Shameful Games of All Time", and #3 on PC World's list of The 10 worst games of all time.
D
Daikatana (2000, PC, Game Boy Color & Nintendo 64) was harshly panned on release, garnering negative attention from the press and fans. Created by John Romero and produced at the Ion Storm studios, the game went through a number of revisions and was the focus of a lot of pre-release hype which included coverage in Time magazine. Insulting advertisements stating "John Romero's about to make you his bitch", as well as numerous delays further fueled fan and media disdain. Upon release, the game was critiqued for numerous failings, including AI-controlled companions which were supposed to be a positive innovation.
Deadly Towers (1987, NES) is an action-adventure game where the protagonist ventures through a maze-like castle. Deadly Towers was ranked #1 on Seanbaby's list of the 20 worst games for the NES.
Drake of the 99 Dragons (more commonly known as simply Drake; 2003, Xbox, PC) is an action game with a comic book style to it. It was universally panned by critics, and GameSpot described it as "one of the most atrociously unplayable games to come along in quite some time." The controls in particular have come under criticism for "not working". X-Play named Drake of the 99 Dragons the worst Xbox game ever, and have even gone so far as to state it had surpassed Aquaman as the game that they compare all bad games to.
Don't Buy This is a ZX Spectrum compilation, comprising, as the publisher Firebird claims in the cassette inlay, "five of the most uninspired games ever to disgrace the 48k Spectrum." Your Spectrum (8/1985) review (two 1/5 verdicts and a 2/5, and three out of three "misses") says "Take a good look at the words printed on the outside of the package before you buy ... the title of the package really does say it all." CRASH review gave it less than 20% on all categories (Use of computer, graphics, playability and getting started) except for addictive qualities (76%) and value of money (700%; the game retailed for £2.50) giving it a total value of 39.333333%.
E
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982, Atari 2600), a game based on the film E.T: The Extra-Terrestrial, was released for the Atari 2600 in 1982. In a time when the market was being flooded with dozens upon dozens of lackluster games, this game, along with the Pac-Man for the Atari 2600, is cited as being a major cause of the Video Game Crash of 1983. Atari, expecting that the E.T. franchise and Christmas season would boost sales, produced millions of copies of the game, which turned out to be a disaster. It had poor controls and gameplay, a fact owed to its hasty development in just five weeks in an attempt to meet the anticipated Christmas rush. Sales were dismal and most copies went unsold. The company then secretly buried the remainder of the cartridges in a landfill site near Alamogordo, New Mexico . The E.T. fiasco cost Atari millions of dollars and contributed to the subsequent collapse of the company. This game topped the PC World list of the 10 worst games of all time.
Ethnic Cleansing (2002, PC) is a controversial computer game developed by Resistance Records, an underground music label specializing in Neo-Nazi and white supremacist bands. In the game, the protagonist (the player can choose either a skinhead or a Klansman) runs through a ghetto killing black people and Latinos, before descending into a subway system to kill Jews. The Anti-Defamation League publicized the existence of the game and unsuccessfully lobbied the developers of Genesis3D to change their licensing conditions to prohibit the use of the engine to develop racist games. The game itself was largely ignored by the gaming community and the specialized press, leaving the game with virtually no official reviews.
K
Kabuki Warriors (2001, Xbox) was a launch title for the Xbox that was a critical and commercial flop. GameSpot described it as "one of the worst games to be released this year or any year, on the Xbox or any other platform", and it is the only game ever to receive a 1 / 10 score from Edge.
R
Revolution X (multiplatform, 1994) was, in its original form, a bitmap-based arcade light gun shooting game similar to Beast Busters or Terminator 2: Judgment Day featuring the rock music band Aerosmith. The game was converted for a small number of systems without great success. Due to its paucity of enemies and animation and poorly-digitized, looping music, Electronics Gaming Monthly writer Seanbaby described the SNES port of this game as "worst second of your life repeated forever" and "biblically horrific".
S
Shaq Fu (1994, multiplatform) has been called the worst game of all time due in large to its less than imaginative background story, awkward and unrewarding gameplay, and suspicions that NBA player Shaquille O'Neal’s branding was attached to the game merely to rally up sales for a game that would otherwise be a financial failure. It was co-marketed with a rap CD and there exists a community tasked with purchasing and destroying all used copies available for sale.
Spawn: The Eternal (1997, PlayStation) was described by IGN as "one of the worst games ever" and "a disappointing game that sullies the fine Spawn name."
Super Columbine Massacre RPG! (2005, PC) received negative attention not just for the technical inferiority of the game itself, but due to the perception that the creator of the game was not treating the Columbine shootings with respect. This game was #2 on PC World's list of the 10 worst games ever.
Superman 64 (1999, Nintendo 64). Reasons for this include the poor graphics, absurd storyline and the gameplay itself, which disappointed many fans of Superman. Electronic Gaming Monthly writer Seanbaby wrote, "Superman looks a lot like a flying log in panties, and the entire world is covered in a dull green fog".It also earned the number one spot in Nintendo Power's '5 Worst Games Ever' and SpikeTv/GameTrailers's 'Top Ten Best and Worst Video Games of All Time' countdown as the worst ever.
Z
Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon (1993, CD-i) is widely considered to be the worst Zelda game ever created. As part of the termination of a contract from Nintendo, Philips gained the license to produce three Zelda games (Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda's Adventure along with Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon). All three received overwhelmingly negative feedback and are referred to in some circles as the "Unholy Triforce." They were notorious for bad gameplay, animation, scripting, and voice acting, but The Wand of Gamelon was roundly condemned by all Zelda fans and is #6 on Seanbaby's 20 worst games list.
