Ninjabread Man is a horrible platforming game for the Wii. Four enemies, four levels, and one whole hour of gameplay can't even justify its bargain bin price tag.
Who's at fault: Data Design International, Conspiracy Entertainment
Released: 2005, 2007
Platform: PS2, Wii
Arnold smuggling melons under his shirt, midgets in pink jumpsuits, awful gameplay, and an obstacle consisting of people punching you through glory holes in a fence. I sincerely have pity for anyone who paid full price for this game eighteen years ago.
Who's at fault: Interplay, Acclaim
Released: 1990
Platform: NES
Naming kids Turok, spray painting pigeons, gravestones with ads, and billboards that drip blood. You may think this sounds unreal, but the geniuses at Acclaim Entertainment actually considered these for advertising. Worse than that, people actually played along.
Who's at fault: Acclaim Entertainment
Released: 2003-2005
Platform: Anything they could think of.
Have you ever wanted to play a crappy Sims clone where you play the part of the most unlikeable guy ever? What about playing an adult game that would only succeed in making an Iranian blush? 7 Sins aspires to be all of that.
Who's at fault: Digital Jesters, Monte Cristo
Released: 2005
Platform: PC, PS2
Who's At Fault: Goldstar, Core Design
Released: 1993

Kabuki Warriors (2001) Any fan of either Kabuki Theater or fighting games should consider Kabuki Warriors a bastardization of the art.

Platform: Xbox
Tattoo Assassins (1995) Right after being sued by Capcom for ripping off Street Fighter II, Data East got to work on Tattoo Assassins, a game aimed at ripping off Mortal Kombat II. Luckily, this story has a happier ending.

Released: 1995 Tentatively
Platform: Arcade
Gore Galore (1995) Finding its way into release via shareware BBS CDs, Gore Galore was neither gory nor was it any good. Touting itself as a splatterfest, it mainly came off as a low-rent Wolfenstein clone. Oh, and it had a poo gun too.
Who's at fault: Jester Software
Platform: PC
Released: 1995
Deadly Towers (1986) Vying to take down The Legend of Zelda as the best action/adventure game on the NES, Deadly Towers is much less a game than a lesson in futility.
Who's at fault: Lenar, Brøderbund Software
Platform: NES
Released: 1986
Pac-Man (Atari 2600) One of two games that not only helped to kill a company, but crashed an industry. Pac-Man, after a ton of hype, released to home consoles and epitomized the term "disappointing".
Who's at fault: Atari, Namco
Platform: Atari 2600
Released: 1982
Sword of Sodan Marketed as an edgy, violent, and bloody title, Sword of Sodan shows that gallons of blood and swords don't necessarily make a good game.
Who's at fault: Innerprise Software, Electronic Arts
Platform: Sega Genesis
Released: 1990
Infamous for being just about the worst game ever made, Big Rigs Over the Road Racing has to truely be seen to be believed. If there were ever one title that truely defined the definition of this site, this is it.
Who's at fault: Stellar Stone LLC, GameMill Platform: PC Released: 11/20/2003
ET was so horrible, it not only killed the most powerful game company at the time, but killed the entire video game industry altogether.
Naming kids Turok, spray painting pigeons, gravestones with ads, and billboards that drip blood. You may think this sounds unreal, but the geniuses at Acclaim Entertainment actually considered these for advertising. Worse than that, people actually played along.
Boring mini-games, butt-ugly visuals, and music that reaches levels of creepiness that only Enya can dream of.

Escape from Bug Island manages to set the Survival Horror genre back about ten years with back-assward conrols, ugly visuals, and fog, fog, fog.
Racing mayhem...at ten frames per second.

What happens when the merchandising geniuses at Nintendo of America team up with the Topps trading cards company? Pure. Unadulterated. Crap.
