Yeah, but there was a good Ninja Turtles game on the SNES. Forgot the title, but I remember it had co-op and my sister and I beat it like 50 times.

Probably TMNT 4:Turtles in Time. Which was good.

Hyperstone Heist for Genesis was good as well.

Turtles in Time sounds right. I'm too lazy to check it now, though.

A game that shouldn't have been made was NASCAR 09. I love NASCAR, but EA Sports just... oh gosh, the mental pain from playing it.

It's like a dog on a ham slicer... just awful.

If it makes you feel better they halted all production of any other NASCAR games after that one.

Not entirely. The year after NASCAR 09, they released NASCAR Kart Racing as a Wii exclusive. It's not a bad game, but I find that I like NASCAR Rumble better.

There is a new NASCAR game finally coming out, though... in 2 weeks. Hopefully Eutechnyx and Activision don't mess up that bad. I'll be getting the Wii version, which sadly won't have the patch for the 2011 content.

Activision fuck up a good series?

You must have forgotten about Tony Hawk Shred.

I never played that mess. In the meantime, I'm attempting to be optimistic. They've got a hands-off approach on this game, so here's hoping.

I'm just gonna come right out and say it: Gears of War.

I can't be the only person that Epic have lost serious points with thanks to this atrocious franchise.

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising.

It had a few fun moments, but overall the game was pretty terrible.

Little Big Planet, Call of Duty, Rock Band, some others I don't feel like naming

The Kinect, in general.

I think eventually the games will be good, but they should have waited for the next console generation to release it.

Apologies if any of these have been already been mentioned:

-> Ninjabread Man (I've had the misfortune to own this).
-> All games based on films (except GoldenEye).
-> Super Mario Bros 2 (the one that was a reskinned version of another game).
-> Hey You, Pikachu!

I'm sure there are others that I'm missing.

Seconded. I enjoyed both Rock Band and Guitar Hero.

But GH: Van Halen was pure Garbage, as was GH: Aerosmith.

C&C Red Alert 3.

by **Makiir** » Wed Mar 16, 2011 10:22 am

I look for games that have a solid singleplayer game. 80% of Multiplayer in games are just gimicks and 15 of the remaining 20% are MMOs

C&C 4 Tiberium Twilight. EA, Y U DO THIS!

Two worlds. The First and the Second. Mayhap the makers suffer for this atrocious pile of garbage.

CoD:MW2. CoD4 was good. But MW2 was awful. Everything from its disgustingly bad story line, to its pretty much identical Multiplayer.

Every Mario game since the first one. Actually most Nintendo games in general.

Final Fantasy 13. God this was awful.

Gears of war. I just really didn't like it.

There are probably more out there, but I can't think of them now.

I actually think the original intention was to have just one FF game, but the first one was apparently so popular that they decided to keep releasing sequels.

You'd think they would at least change the title.

actually, the 'Final' is alluding to Squaresoft. that was going to be their final game before they went into bankruptcy. However, that game did so well, it literally saved the company.

for me... the game that shouldn't have been made...

Sims... really... a game about life... really?

Well, to be fair, Final Fantasy 7 was the shiznit, if you can get past the irony of 7 Finals.
