^_^
Agreed.
BF2, yes, story/ect crap. _VERY_ fun Von's told me, tho, so not too crappy. Pity it's XP only.
Sims: agreed. Fun to some people, but not rly guy-stuff.
Halo 1: o.O "crap gfx"? They're _ALOT_ better than CS1.6 or HL1 standard. O.o Besides, it's fun. I don't know why everyone compares them, they're different games + go different routes. I liek both.
HW1: *cough, glance at sig* Yea, anyways. HW1 was excellent, GOTY in '99. Nice, fun gameplay, quite good storyline. Also.. 5 hrs a mission? Usual is 1-2 for the longer ones..
Gen: Not C&C Generals, just Generals. It's a very fun game, if you get together in a 2-on-2 with some friends. ... decent.. gfx, besides the infantry.
TA/SC: haven't played.
HL1: o.o HL is in NO way, shape, form, or whatever a "crappy" game. except for gfx, but it's from friggin '98, so yes, they are complete _SHIT_ compared to today. BUT.. gameplay is by far one of the best I've had, I'm sure I've logged more hours in HL, Op4, BS, and SC than most RTS games combined, and definitely the most out of every other game this year. ^_^ Yes, STEAM is occasionally unreliable, but when it works, it's damned nice. HL2: ehh.. decent. very nice gfx, not as epic as HL1, but still nice. Good music, definitely. CSS/CS1.6 have degraded to super crap player-wise, which is why I don't play CSS anymore much.
^_^
Yup, I typed this up all by myself.
Now... as for the worst game I can think of...
"Custer's Revenge". worst game concept EVAR, and.. worst overall. It's just.. o.o what were they thinking? _________________

Worst Games:
-Submarine Titans: crappy storyline and graphics, as well as gameplay.
-The Sims: The endless amount of expansion packs was just too much, also crappy gameplay.
-The Sims 2: Same reason than before.
-Every game which was translated to Spanish (Spanish voices), specially Blizzard's games (with the exception of Diablo II which was acceptable), also specially COD II it was worst than all the badly translated Blizzard's games together.
Worst Mod:
Dunno, maybe The Matherian Whitening Project for GTA:SA, playing with a white gay looking CJ, it was like playing with Michael Jackson, specially since it only changed CJ QUICK_EDIT

Worst game ever:
Lego Star Wars: It was stupid and ridiculous, and you can't possibly lose; there is literally no way. There was no point whatsoever in being made other than so that Lego could make money, so it pretty much sucked... like most Lego video games.
Worst mod ever:
Energy Mod. It was pointless, had no storyline, and was completely unbalanced.
PS:
Halo one and two (and hopefully three) are/will be the best games ever! How can possibly not like them? _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.

I liked the Sims, I don't see why people dislike it so much. It was a formula that worked well, just like with Sim City. Unfortunately, it was so good a concept that EA milked it dry.
I've never bought any games that have generally been rated as terrible so I can't judge the worst game ever. Tomb Raider: Chronicles happens to be one of the worst games I've had the pleasure of buying, though. _________________

Please, tell us what you think was wrong with Halo. _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.
Conquest Earth. It's a crappy game, about how humans launch a probe which lands on Jupiter, even though in real life it's a gas giant, but anyway as it lands it kills some aliens. The aliens who are supremely technologically advanced then go 'to war!' and start invading Earth, apparently.
Despite being called an "RTS" it actually feels like I'm playing a point and click shooter with lobotomized RTS elements.
The alien campaign screen forces you to prod around buttons with no label tags on them and click teletubbies, if that would tell you something, and the human screen is just watching various cities blinking and fading.
Awful, awful game.
X-Com Enforcer: Alright, so what do we get when we have a good strategy game series and two busted games canceled by Hasbro?
X-Com Enforcer is that, a merged collection of assets crammed into a shoot-em-up with ported aliens which have a lack of resemblance to any of the originals except for a few exceptions. Your only ally in this game is a squeaky professor whose voice actor is godawful- almost makes you want to stop playing.
X-Com Interceptor: Another dung beetle which has nothing to do with the first three games. The aliens this time decide 'ztype it' and plan to blow up Earth using a giant death ray, and as this is a flight simulator, you're the only pilots in the universe which can stop this from happening with your strategic bases and scientists. Your wingmen are whiny power rangers with lame south park taunts, and think 'texas truck drivers' operating and screaming for help onboard outposts which get attacked by 50's saucers repeatedly. The game is unusually brutally harsh to those who've never even played a flight sim before.
-Edited because I was stoned at the time of writing, and I was being pretty unfair, but yeah Conquest Earth sucks balls. _________________ Last edited by Elerium-155 on Sat Oct 09, 2010 11:35 am; edited 9 times in total QUICK_EDIT
I hate Halo, it's always more of the same. It's not interesting at all.
The flood, the covenant, I find blasting myself through Halo's boring levels to be a burden, not a form entertainment.
Another game I have don't like is state of war. The game was unlike any game I had ever played before. It was not too logical, had a bad storyline, extremely weird game-mechanics, not to mention the fact it was hard as hell to do anything at all. QUICK_EDIT

OMFG! HERETIC!
Half life bad? Total Anihilation Crappy? Homeworld?
Half-Life has one of the best storylines I have ever seen, not to mention that frying a three headed alien with a rocket engine kicks ass.
Homeworld is the only game that successfully managed to create space RTS, granted the graphics are not the best, but at the time it was decent. Judging an old game and saying it has crappy graphics based on today's standards is kinda dumb.
Total Annihilation granted, had no real storyline, but as an RTS it owned. TA managed to create two armies with a load of units that were actually useful. No unit was crappy or useless. QUICK_EDIT

The flood, the covenant, I find blasting myself through Halo's boring levels to be a burden, not a form entertainment.
Firstly: Flood and Covenant are proper nouns; they should be capitalized. Secondly: Yeah, the Flood sucked. Almost nobody enjoyed fighting them. But the Covenant were actually an interesting set of enemies to fight. I have to say I found it very satisfying to overcharge a Plasma Pistol and unleash the shield-killing blast (removes any shield from any character ) and then putting in the head-shot with a M6D/M6C Pistol (a headshot with the M6D/M6C is a one-hit kill against any unshielded enemy) (M6D is H1, M6C is H2). Experienced players probably already knew both parentheses' comments, but oh well... Ironically, the weapons most newcomers consider to be aweful, the Plasma Pistol and the M6D/M6C, when used in unison are one of the best combo's you can have. The thing most newbies consider to be awesome weapons but later find not to be is the Needler. In H1. it wasn't really that bad; in H1, every weapon was good if applied right. But in H2, it's easily the worst weapon in the game, other than the Plasma Pistol when not used with something else (Plasma Pistol in H2 was designed for anti-shields only, sucks against flesh; it was designed to be used in unison with a good anti-flesh gun {in other words, a human weapon}).
Okay, after that almost useless mini-tutorial...
Another really bad game was Brute Force: It was pretty much a crappier version of Halo. It had worse graphics, unbalanced weapons, and the gameplay style made me want to take one of its stupid weapons from the screen and kill myself.
Second worst mod ever was the 'AI-First' mod I posted on Revora like a year ago. _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.
Generals: At a C&C forum must i say why?
Battlefied 2: too many nooby gamers and the game is a resource hog, considering its mearly a graphic upgrade to BF1942 (a bad 1 at that), its useless. BF1942 Desert combat mod is better.
C+C3: EA's crappy attempt at the next C&C, failed misurably. Bad units, old engine & graphics (compared to Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, Act of War + HT, Supreme commander etc C+C3's graphics are poor)
HL Counter Strike: This is usually more due to players, every 2nd player has hacks and is cheating someway, so unless its on a LAN with mates its not worth the headache
Battlecruiser Millenium (well the whole battlecruiser and universe combat series): Worse user friendlyness in history, no tutorial, weird controls and it took 5 mins to figure out how to move, i never learnt how to shoot properly etc.
i think they are the main ones that stand out atm. QUICK_EDIT

Oh man, you haven't seen how many baaad games I've played. Lets start:
[...]
Sword of the Stars. Ok so we got this crappy little 3d model game, you can't do much here either, if the voices in game don't get you, don't even bother. So we got Humans, some croc-monkey race called the Tarkas, the Liir (space dolphins or something) and finally the Hivers, your lovely world conquering bug race. You'll be unable to control your ships as they last for only a few seconds, and you'll be overwhelmed by the amount of insidious micromanagement. 2/10

Good question, Friday.
Another aweful game:
PGA Tour. I hate golf; it is the most boring game ever! I see no point in playing something that takes half-an hour just to finish a hole, and in that time you never really do anything other than hit a little white ball with a club. _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.
Why Red Faction 2?
i've played it through atleast 2 times and it was a nice game, with not superb but acceptable and a bit addicting story, many places & locations and some dramatics, cool action, and well, can't understand that.
Worst games:
Outpost 2 (helluva old game from sierra.....it's bad..rly bad)
Messiah (also an old game with a little angel character , nice game...many bugs HORRIBLE controls....) _________________ Hydraw Art on Facebook QUICK_EDIT

Somehow err I don't think its going to work out. I'll give them at least a 4 or 5 out of 10. Civ 2 gets an 8/10.
And I thought they were all good . BTW my favorites in the series are Civilization I, III, and IV. I for starting the series, III and IV for the amount of modding they have, specially IV. Though both III and Iv are only good is you have the expansion packs, also the warrior destroying the modern armor "bug" should be gone in the latest patch QUICK_EDIT

First of all, C&C3. Second... old engine? It's a heavily modified version of SAGE. It's in NO WAY the same one used in Generals/BFME. Bad graphics? Did you have all of your graphical settings turned down to minimum? That's the only reason I see behind this accusation. Bad units? Wow. Won't even touch that one. Not intended for bashing, I just don't see where you got your reasons. _________________

Yes, Thundra.
Offtopic: You can post on your phone, Dupl3xxx? Cool. I wish I could. I wish my phone worked at all; it's a little piece of crap.
Another aweful game: Lego Racers. Wow, we're beginning to stack up the aweful Lego games... _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.
Almost all RTS's that aren't C&C. Why? Because the controls are ok at best, can't be modded worth anything, can only do missions, and (here's the kicker!) Almost no functions that even RA2 has i.e. going in buildings and building buildings. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT
^
Homeworld 2 has a big modding community and amazing mods (Starwars mod, Battlestar Galactica mod, Angels Fall First, Gundam mod). The controls of the game are hard to master, but when you do you can really kickass with limitless strategies.
Empire Earth (Art of Conquest) has good controls with many user made tools for editing and mapping.
Warhammer 40k is one of the best RTS games, many would agree. It has some nice mods released for it and one of the best multiplayer communities I've seen.
Saying that most RTS games that are not C&C are bad only means that you're biased towards C&C. QUICK_EDIT

He said most, not all. I don't think he'd argue against something as popular as Warhammer. And actually, Empire Earth really wasn't very good... Every side was effectively the same. No real variety. It was boring. I'm adding it to my worst games list.
I've never even played Homeworld... Anybody know where I can get a demo, to see if it's worth buying? _________________ When you've convinced yourself that killing an animal is 'murder', but killing an unborn human being is 'choice', you sir have become as dangerous as a person can be.

*bump* (Reason: don't want to create a new thread just to whinge about a game none of you will ever have heard of, and nobody's said "closed" or anything; no I am not gufu's DNA copied to give bad reasons for bumping).
Hidden stroke/ Hidden stroke 2: Basically made up of the engine stolen from the WWII RTT sudden strike series; "borrowed" Sudden strike community assets and crazy prototype WWII units.
Generals: The only redeeming feature of this game I've ever seen is the Blitzkrieg mod.
Ea's series of james bond games: need I say more? weren't the E and the A enough? _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT

The problem is that ive deleted most of my memories of the worst games from my brain. And crap mods, I cant even begin to count them all becaus I dont memorize their names.
The ones that I remember is:
C&C Generals & ZeroHour: neither of them has a storyline, the video over at newgrounds explains it all: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/337524 Its still fun to mod tho.
Also I dont like C&C3 and after Kains Wrath is released I will put it on this list
Tiberium looks crap too like Banshee said here: http://www.ppmsite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=198493
New Sonic games released after the Sega Saturn games: Again with the stupid story lines and all the damn humans in those games.
Sonic Spinnball (MD/Gen): Totaly crap.
Sonic Adventure 1: Crap (Ive played it). I prefere the Sonic X cartoon
Sonic Adventure 2: looks as much crap as the first one did. Yet again I prefer the Sonic X cartoon. Linky: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/276816
Sonic Battle for GBA: crap all over the place: Again I prefer the Sonic X cartoon over this crap that one is much better.
Sonic Advance 1-3: Failed attemts to revive the side scrolling Sonic games for the MegaDrive/Genesis
Sonic Rivals: Ive got the ISO for it but it looks so much crap that im to scared to play it
Sonic Rivals 2: What the heck they made another game
Sonic Heroes: Oh no a storyline with Robot Sonic as the vilain
Sonic 2006: What the heck!
Sonic CD: crap storyline but the cinematics are fun. Hate the stupid timewarp concept. Im also annoyed about how the game ended (what the heck a boss fight and then finnish).
Knuckles Chaotix is pretty crap too (worse than Sonic CD)
There are prolly some more crap sonic games that ive forgotten about.
Ahh yes the Sonic Riders game: Crap, see the link http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/306762
And the "Shadow The Hedgehog" game: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/350460 http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/372986
I also hate "The Sims" and "The Sims2" and all of their cash milking expansions and "Sim City Societies" but I like "SimCity4 Deluxe" and the previous SimCity games.
The old "Theme Park" game from Bullfrog is quite crap.
And yes I play other types of games too if you want to know.
And for those who want to know I dont have anything against Supreme Commander at all, dude it has a storyline you must have missed it, its not big but its there and its better than C&C Generals/ZH (<--- does that abomination even have a storyline?) QUICK_EDIT

Sonic Spinball was an underrated gem! SA1/2 weren't that bad, they both kept me entertained for a very long time and the biggest fault was the dodgy camera. The other characters detracted slightly from the usual speed experience you want when playing Sonic, though. Can't say I played many other recent Sonic games but the ones I did have a go of weren't that good. Ultimately, nothing will beat Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, the best games I owned on my Megadrive and among the best I've played. Happy, rose-tinted memories! _________________
