A classic abomination:
SUPERMAN 64 (1999)
Poor controls, technical flaws, poor graphics and weak gameplay doom this stinker.  Widely considered one of the worst video games of all time.  The mighty Kryptonian spends the first level.. FLYING THROUGH RINGS??  ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME??

^ Yikes, that's a really bad one....

But here's one that just makes me want to punch a pillow several times.

BIBLE ADVENTURES
Three games were in this series for the NES: Noah's Ark, David & Goliath and Baby Moses.  Bad controls and repetitive gameplay may be the largest detriments (though there is unintentional humor in seeing Noah leave a cow in a tree).

^ Wow, just... wow.

This ones a newer indie game. Yes, I know it's unfair to criticize an indie game, but seriously? This game is literally just walking through a hallway multiple times with a monotone voice blabbering the same thing constantly. Oh, and the big plot twist at the end? Eventually, a brick wall spawns on the hallway and crashes the game on being touched.

GUARDIANS OF THE HOOD (Atari Games, 1992)
Absolutely awful mechanics and gameplay doom this monstrous arcade turd where you pick up to 3 street fighters and take down thugs and their bosses.  The same horribly clunky movements of the digitized sprites from Pit Fighter that you hated are here too!  Just.. steaming garbage.

PLUMBERS DON'T WEAR TIES (1994, Kirin Entertainment for the 3DO)
Incredibly bad adult-oriented FMV, and at times a slideshow (?!), in which you play matchmaker to two people to make them a couple.  What a great idea for a video game! (facepalm)

CHARLIE'S ANGELS (2003) Playstation 2

HORRIBLY clunky movements by the characters offends me most about this legendary disaster, based on the movie remake of the 70s series.

Don't know much about this one, a friend shared it to me. Despite the name, it does have a... very poorly drawn clown, but nothing too scary. It appears to be mostly made with MS Paint, and the objective is to simply walk across the screen and collect drawn people and each level transition has some sort of inspirational quote or something.

KARATE (1982, Ultravision/Froggo) for the Atari 2600 system.

Legendarily awful game where you just try to outscore your opponent in a tournament with you vs. a fellow martial artist trying to land more punches and kicks.  Controls are awful and the game is deadly dull.  One of the worst games for the system.

The Avengers game I have on my Nokia phone: I finished it in under 5 minutes. Not much of a challenge, even Loki is a real wuss.  :tongueout:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.
