Worst game this generation
12 years ago
Which is the worst game you've played this generation?
I mean actual gameplay, no graphics, so please casuals, I politely recommend you to shut the fuck up
In my case, Need For Speed: The Run.
It has the worst gameplay I've ever seen in a racing game EVER. The worst control in my fucking life.
And the way you get cars is just stupid, plus the ENDLESS loading screens is just hopeless... Don't ever try to restart a race, or if you do, have some food next to you cause it'll take HOURS.
Now let me hear your voice
The worst game i've ever played is the first Spyro game for PS2. Spyro Enter the Dragonfly.
First and most important reason:
-The real fun in the game is avoiding the endless amount of glitches that you encounter through normal playing.
Other reasons:
-Graphics make the game run slower than it should, and all the characters look awful.
-There are much less levels/worlds than any Spyro game before (and we are talking about quite old PS1 games).
-The new mechanics, such as the different breaths, are poorly managed, meaning you get them randomly and you only use them twice.
-The game lacks creativity, repeating Rypto as evil character (in a more ridiculous way), and using too much influence from previous games.
-The backstory is good for a teletubbies episode.
-Slow loading times.
-Lacks more content, meaning when you clear it first time with all the gems, thats all to it.
-Controls are just "fine".
-Seriously, dude, its packed with glitches every corner.
So that's it. Im glad almost every other spyro game was succesful cause i like the purple guy. But this game sucks big time.
i could name a few. but those ones i haven played them. so id only be siding with eviews
which leaves to personal purchases....which are second hand, and for few consoles
Probably Defiance. Open-world post-apocalyptic sci-fi mmo third person shooter with terrible writing, sponsored by Dodge. I guess hundreds of years from now we'll still be making Dodge Challengers.
Anything having to do with the Mako Land Rover in Mass Effect 1.
Otro que me decepcionó bastante (¿casualmente?, también de RockStar Games) fue L.A. Noirse. Demasiado L.A. y muy poco Noire. No me gusta por casi exactamente las mismas razones que GTA IV.
Dead Space 3: so many bad ideas on how to remake Dead Space. Scaring people with noise stopped working after Silent Hill 4
Bioshock Infinte: looked great, nice story, but zero replay value and no multiplayer
Resident Evil 5: STILL moving like a tank and at one point it turned into Tomb Raider
Borderlands 2: 8 Billion guns and only 0.5% actually useable. They got it right in the first game
Darksiders 2: Should have just scrapped it. That series will never be finished and we won't know Strife or Fury's stories
Dragon Age: Half baked and you need to be very good at micromanaging every single battle if you want to play beyond Easy mode
Anyone disagree strongly?
For BI: They didn't implement multiplayer-mode on purpose, and I have to agree with their decision. I do not believe it would have worked for a game like it. And I believe it has some replayability for completionists. It sounds pretty interesting, to me at least, to replay it again, knowing the ending and everything that's going on. I also thought the gameplay was really cool, so that's another bonus.
In conclusion: Strong gameplay, graphics, story; medium-to-none replayability value; no multiplayer.
And you still think it's contender for the worst game of this generation? =/
For DA: Regarding the difficulty, you're saying that you find anything beyond Easy too difficult. How is that a bad thing? You can play it on Easy, and if anything else is too hard for you than it just means you're not very good at it. Micro'ing and playing games where you control a party of heroes aren't supposed to be easy. I agree that it isn't a fantastic game, but it's still pretty darn good and naming it one of the worst just because it's too difficult on medium sounds quite unfair to me.
Side-note: If DA's difficulty is too much to handle, what's your opinion on Dark Souls? Is that the worst game ever in video game history? xD
On Dragon Age I will admit I'm not very experienced with the play style. So for a noob it really didn't work well for me. But I have completed it and tried it with various characters. I just like playing harder difficulties to challange myself and I manage to clear most after a time (Mass Effect 2 and 3, Dead Space trilogy, RAGE, etc...).
Maybe my opinion of Bioshock was a little harsh, but I felt there were other points that brought it down. Stuff like the enemies have a 100% hit rate regardless of distance. Some you couldn't even see due to distance and they'd still hit you. The weapons were kinda ineffective, but only having 2 was a nice change. Having 2 with a pistol or handcannon sidearm and limited ammo with either would have been nicer. The powers were pretty worthless but for one (the bronco).
I quite liked the variety of weapons and powers in it, but I ended up clearing the game with just a couple or so of each because I felt they were just way stronger than the rest. I've seen a few vids with people combining all kinds of powers in pretty nice ways, however.
"Kasumi Ninja" for the Atari Jaguar is the clunkiest fighting game I've ever played. Although the fatalities are pretty brutal, the graphics and sound effects are horrible and you have to navigate a poorly rendered FPS dungeon in order to choose your characters. When it comes to gameplay, it's embarrassingly shoddy.
