LGR - Top 17 Worst PC Games

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enYou know, I was looking at some of thosetop whatever lists of the worst games ever made,the worst PC games ever made,and I got to thinkingI have a lot worse games than are in those listsjust in my collection.So basically what I'm going to present here is a listof the top 17 worst PC games that I have in my collection.Now of course I haven't played every PC game ever,so there are probably some games that are going to be left outthat you think are much worse than some of thesebut you know, whatever.This is the top 17 that I've playedand that I have stashed in here for whatever reason or another.So, let's get straight toNumber 17: Streets of Sim CityI hesitated to put this one on heresince I do find it a guilty pleasurebut let's be honest: Streets of Sim City is a terrible racer.The controls are wank, the plot is scatteredand the graphics and sound are mediocre at best.And there are so many bugs that you'd thinkthat you were an entomologist or something,not playing a Maxis game.Number 16: Test Drive 4/Test Drive Offroad 2I lump these two together because they piss me off equallyand use the same game engine... and they're both racing games.Test Drive 4 is just an awful, unresponsive, buggy, evil gamethat is out to get you,and Test Drive Offroad 2 is the same thingbut worse in every way, except with dirt and trucks.I actually broke a keyboard over a brick wall due to this gameas a kid. I am dead serious.Number 15: Combat MedicThis one's a bit uniquethis game is so terrible it won't even let you start it.I have tried installing this game several times on lots of computersand have never once got this game to even start.I'd wanted to try it because the box art and screenshots are just horrendousit looks amazingly horrible but alas, we may never know.Number 14: Teenage Mutant Ninja TurtlesAs another odd game for the list, this game in itselfisn't the most horrible TMNT game I've ever played,but there's one problem: you can't beat the game.Seriously, there is a spot in one level, it is impossible to crossEffectively ending the game right there,and making it impossible to get past. Amazing.Number 13: Depth DwellersThere are lots and lots of bad Doom clones,but this one is special.I've never seen a shooter with as little... everying as Depth Dwellers.It's like the programmers made a decent 3D engineand then had no idea what to do with it whatsoever.The plot is lame, the music is horrible, the sounds are worseand the levels are confusing, and holy crap!The repetition is enough to make you vomit.I'm serious, I get sick playing this game. It's like saying you have a carbut in fact, you only have a steering wheel. That's not how it works, man.Number 12: Mega ManMega Man is easily one of the better games on the NES, but sadlypoor Rock Man's first adventure on the PC did not have such a great start.You must have Jedi reflexes to play PC Mega Man.No, in fact, I don't think that would help at all.Due to the crap controls, atrocious enemy action,and nasty level design. Disgrace.Number 11: OutpostI bought Outpost for $2, brand new, not long after it came out. I was like,\"Why is it so cheap?! What the heck?! The box makes it look totally sweetand c'mon, it's a space strategy game by Sierra.\" But then you get into the gameand oh good grief. Horrible interface, horrible gameplay, horrible narration,horrible, horrible, horrible. Nice graphics, convoluted gameplay.Just a serious disappointment.Number 10: Extreme PaintbrawlYou know, contrary to popular lore,this game is actually almost playable.It's a simple FPS using the Build engine,and it is what it is:paintball, with nonexistent AI, infinite bugs,faulty game mechanics, and the stupidest music ever.It's considered by many to be the worst game of all time, so you know there'ssome serious crap coming up when Paintbrawl is only Number 10.Number 9: Space Bunnies Must DieI gotta say, this one is just weird.The game is supposed to be like one of thoselate night sexist B-Movies, so it sounded like fun,but man, I don't know what happened. This thing is just broken.The controls suck, the graphics suck,the gameplay is not there, and worst of allthere is absolutely nothing fun about it.It's clunky, ugly obnoxious, and lame.Number 8: Xenophage: Alien BloodsportApogee was know for amazing PC games,usually genre-defining and worth every penny.Then came Xenophage, a fighting gameto capitalize on the Mortal Kombat craze.Bug-filled, crap controls, stupid characters, annoying AI,broken collision detection, and a million times more aggrivating than fun.Xenophage: Alien Sucksport, I hope time forgets youbecause you tarnish Apogee's good name.Number 7: Mag RacerI can appreciate games made by one guy,the so-called \"bedroom programmers\",but please, don't try and bite offmore than you can chew.Mag Racer is a racing game that reminds meof Depth Dwellers, somewhat.Made by a programmer who had no idea what to dowith what he'd just made.The graphics are bizzare and ugly, the cars don't workand are out of control, and the camera is one of the worst I've seen in a racer.All I can think when looking at this mess is\"WTF AVOID\"Number 6: CatechumanChristian games are few and far betweenand that's probably because most of them suck.Catechuman is a standout title for all the wrong reasons,mainly because it's a God-fearing first-person shooter.Shoot lasers from your sword at the evil people until they're so weakthey have no choice but to pray and be converted. Wow.Not to mention every last aspect of the design is so screwed upit's borderline unplayable.This has got to be sacrilege.Number 5: Cyber GladiatorsI don't understand this one.I remember seeing some ads or something promotional,saying this game was all steady-art crazy and awesome.They had to have been on drugs from another universe.Cyber Gladiators may just be the worst fighter on the PCand one of the worst period.It is brain-numbingly simple, just kick and dodge every so often.And the \"revolutionary graphis\" are just laughable.They look like there's something wrong.And there is zero replay value, even with other fighters.Absolutely nothing is enjoyable about this.Number 4: Winter Race 3DWell it's obviously a budget title so you can't expect much of it,but wow, Winter Race 3D is one broken freaking game.When I say nothing works, I mean nothing works.The controls, half of the time, don't respond,and when they do, they're impressively jacked-up.Any time you collide with anythingyou bounce 90 degrees in a random direction.Is this a racing game or a pinball machine?The gameplay is stupid, the goals are nonexistent,and the graphics... eugh.I've tried to figure this one out, but I just cannot seehow this one got anywhere near the store shelves.This is so rubbish, it's classy.Number 3: Speed RageIf you're a connoisseur of bad gamesthis is a very guilty pleasure.Speed Rage is legendarily bad, and for good reason:nothing works. Nothing!I think it's supposed to be a racing game, but I am actually not sure.I'm not sure if it even qualifies as a game.It's more like an exercise in self-preservationas in how long can you make yourself sit through thisuntil killing the game before you kill yourself.Number 2: Extreme Bull RiderI thought Winter Race 3D and Speed Rage were baduntil I played this. And... I'm speechless.I mean, it almost looks like somebody tried to make this a gameand then got distracted by cheese or something.Nothing makes any sense, much less works at allin an even remotely playable way. This is just... wow.Every last bit of this game pisses me off.I find it incomprehensible that this is real.Somebody pinch me, no, shoot me. The only way this could get any worseis if not one single part of the game worked at all.I mean, at least things move around somewhat how you'd expectand there's collision detection... sometimes,Which is far more than what I can say for our grand prize winner.Number 1: Big Rigs: Over The Road RacingI've seen better gameplay on a vending machine.\n"
