Games not worth your money or time

[Cdaghostie]

Ok everyone had their fair share of buying a game then immediatley running to the toilet jking

But everyone has a game that glitches too much, plays as if ur playing chess, plays like a atari game(not all are bad), or a game that just plain stunk

Ill try to keep a master list

Rules:
1. Give ur info Title-System-Rent, borrow, buy it cheap, don't touch it-Why?

Try and keep it with games within the past 3 years

If the number has a * beside it its now removed because someone gave a better reason to buy it

Updated : December 1, 2005
1. Yoshi's Touch and Go- DS- If you know someone who bought it by accident borrow it overnight- Its way too short

4.Xbox 360- Xbox 360- borrow- not worth your money yet.. no killer app

Awards

Most controversial game: Yoshi's Story/ Shadow the Hedgehog
Most awful game: Super Man 64


Have fun, learn what not to buy

We could have had up to about 30 games on the list but due to no reasons they didn't make it

 

[posh_the_Berzerker]

resident evil 4 - ps2 - once again we return to the land where turning around quickly forgot and being able to see what your shooting at mattered"fair do's it is a bit better now" and of course an annoying amount of pointless puzzles!

brought it took it back brought tony hawks american wasteland instead now that is good

 

[PUrEHearT]

meh the whole Xbox 360 system in my opinion...
Not that improved from the Xbox... PS3 and Revolution are much better with CELL technology, tons of more games, and new kind of controller
lack of good games
the only good feature on it is the on-line feature and even that you have to pay money for
$60 for a game when its just a DVD

The Chronicles of Narnia-wow... do i REALLY need to explain here?

Shadow the Hedgehog-its sonic with a new color and a gun... ruined sonic permantly... why sega why put a gun on shadow's hands!!!

thats all i can think for now

 

[posh_the_Berzerker]

Myst doesnt matter which one they all suck

 

[PhQnix]

Resi 4 is a really good game, at least it is on the Gamecube, but it'd take a lot to screw that one up.

Direct movie story tie ins all suck and also Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup, I rented it and it is just one huge misake.

 

[posh_the_Berzerker]

thats your opinion fair enuff i jus have a MAJOR beef with cameras

 

[ShiningClefairy]

brought it took it back brought tony hawks american wasteland instead now that is good

THAW? That's what I'm putting on my list for this thread. They claim no loading times, but there are. You skate through a tunnel as the rest of the level loads. Each area is dull compared to the classic levels. I regret the purchase. Traded it and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, as well as my Wavebird controller and got Mario Kart DS. Now there's a game!

 

[Ryusuke Hikari]

I'm beginning to regret that I bought Shadow the Hedgehog. Sure, it has a good story. But, I don't like the gameplay, the character, and having a Sonic character hold a gun (especially one that looks like Sonic). Most of the vocal music is bad. Level design is horrible. That's all I've got to say. It's a good game sure, but I'm beginning to hate it so much that I'm at the point of selling it.

 

[SecretMew]

I hate to say it but...
Pokémon Colosseum. I just actually aren't interested in the game, didn't even complete it.. Maybe because I saw my friend complete it and he traded me some pokémon with his Pokémon Colosseum.. I just got bored soon...

 

[skiboydoggy]

Yu-Gi-Oh: The Sacred Cards. Pointless, easy, no replay value, and the God Cards plain stink.

 

[Gravy]

Yoshi's Story.

I should be hung, drawn and quartered for even contemplating on purchasing that horrid excuse for a sequel in the first place~

 

[Chris]

I assume you thought it'd be as awesome as Yoshi's Island as well, huh? >_>;

Anyways..

Superman 64 - AVOID WITH YOUR LIFE - Because..it's Superman 64. >_>;

I was just about to say that...So buggy.

Avoid any game that has the word "Yoshi" except for one called "Yoshi's Island."

Yoshi Safari? WTF? Just...WTF. Giving Mario a gun is plain screwed up.

Avoid any game that has "Pokemon" AND has no color for it except if it has XD on it. (which wasn't THAT good too.) My mistake buying Channel....

Avoid Halo and Halo 2 if you don't have LIVE for your life because....it's Halo. Don't listen to GameFAQs about it being 9th best ever.

 

[MidnightScott]

I would have to disagree with you on Shadow the Hedgehog. The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is awesome. Plus you don't need to use a gun the entire time.

Avoid these:

Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex - GCN
Need for Speed Underground 2 - GCN
Pokémon Dash - terrible. dissapointing. easy. sucky. don't get it.
Any Skater or sports game (Football, Basketball, Baseball) except for the Mario ones - those are fun.
Anything made by Sony - cheap and mediocre games.
Pokémon Channel is only good if you get it at bargain bin price (like $5)
Mario Party 4 - too boring and too short. I'm starting to wonder about 6 & 7 being the same way.

There are several games I sold on Ebay and got up to $60 for them but oh well - I cant remember them right now.

The original Halo had XBL support?

Yoshi's Story.

I should be hung, drawn and quartered for even contemplating on purchasing that horrid excuse for a sequel in the first place~

The action may have been a bit dumbed down, but it didn't have the horrendus chore of babysitting Baby Mario, who whined every second he was away. I honestly liked Yoshi's Story. Guess I was the only one. It was a bit simple, but not awful.

Yoshi's Island though, I still have that. Great game.

 

[MidnightScott]

I hate Yoshi's Island because of that damn Baby Mario. Oh well - Baby Mario & Luigi are in "Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time" and it doesn't look like they will be drowning themselves with tears (pun intended)

Shadow the Hedgehog-its sonic with a new color and a gun... ruined sonic permantly... why sega why put a gun on shadow's hands!!!

Ruined Sonic permantly? ...Yah, talk about exadrating. Besides the fact from what I've heard that you don't have to use the gun for the entire thing and it's not like the main thing in the game, Shadow is different than Sonic. Heck if this game is good enough they are planning on giving Shadow his own franchise, as in making it different that Sonic. It didn't ruin Sonic. It ruined nothing.

The action may have been a bit dumbed down, but it didn't have the horrendus chore of babysitting Baby Mario, who whined every second he was away. I honestly liked Yoshi's Story. Guess I was the only one. It was a bit simple, but not awful.

Make that only one of two people, I liked the game also. Yah it was really simple, but it was still fun.

 

[DigitalKaede]

Yoshi Topsy Turvy: The sound and music is irritating.
Mario Golf: Advance Tour: Too easy
Power Rangers: None of them, all are horrible.

 

[Bu†cH]

Do not get!

Crash Tag Team Racing-Get away from this ugly Double Dash ripoff.
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly and Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs-Boring.
Legend of Kay-Trust me. Don't get it.
Ratchet: Deadlocked-Worst game in the series.
Coded Arms-Controls and difficulity are tedious.
Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble-EGM says it sucks, I say it sucks.
Star Wars: Battlefront and Burnout 3-They are good, but if you have online compatability, avoid!
Fullmetal Alchemist 2-Too feeling incomplete, too crappy, too short, too easy, too forgiving.

Game Boy Micro-Why the he** does this exist anyway!? It only plays GBA games. Removable faceplace my ***.
PSP-Not too popular and half-***ed games
------------------------------------
Borrow/Rent/Get Cheap. The games below are good, but short.

King Kong-Six hours long
Genji-Sevne hours long.
Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2-Like ten hours long each.

 

[ViNe WhIp]

Actually you do have to explain PUreHEarT have you actually even played the game? The Chronicles of Narnia is a good game. Just because most movie games suck doesnt mean they all do look a its rating. http://cube.ign.com/articles/666/666411p1.html 8.3 is a very good rating.
