What generation does it come from, is it PC/console/arcade, and what makes it so god-awful?
SNES:
-Obitus: First person dungeon crawler that reeks of repetetive rooms, lame combat, and no point.
-Weaponlord: Fantasy characters fight with various weapons. Looks great until you realize "hitting each other" was left out of the game.
Playstation:
-Pepsiman: Sort of a crash bandicoot with restrictive controls and levels, and no attacks. Annoying music, and Japanglish slogans from a fat southern californier make this a novelty game at its best.

SHIT! You had to mention that, didn't you? Why don't you just show bright flashes to epileptic people while you're at it.
Yeah I'm going to disagree with earthbound. Best RPG for the SNES next to chrono trigger.
Shittiest thing I've ever played was the multiplayer for Warcraft 3.
If only because the single player was so much more fun.

FFTA for GBA. after playing it for 5 hours and relizing there was no story it was just pointless battling. I took it and held it over the trash. I debated throwing it away for a good 15 minutes before I decided to get rid of it at gamestop and get a frigging Guide to the zelda disc for gamecube.
THATS RIGHT SQUARE I TOOK A FREAKING BOOK OVER YOUR GARBAGE!

Beyond the Beyond. Possibly the worst RPG in history.

And then you play Valkyrie Profile, and repent for your sins.
I don't know about you, but I play games, not read them. When did story become the most important thing in an RPG anyway? I'd rather play an old Dragon Quest game than most of the RPGs that
have come out recently.
Till the End of Time is wonderful if you've played the first SO, all the references in it are what made it so much fun to me.

51, beyond the beyond isn't a bad game. It Was the first, so expect it to be bad ( but hell I liked it ).
Star ocean 3 does... suck. Star ocean 1 and 2 are just plain awsome, best games ever...
Back on topic... Batman forever horrible, and... 2 extreame, and sim city 2000. I just hated them all... don't say stop hating, cause I own them all... Also Soul calibur for Xbox was horrible, only worth 4 dollers...
Castle vania for 64, (PS2 wasen't as bad, but not as good as SOTN =D I could go on, but my last one has to be... All the older DBZ games before Budokai, just horrible. 0/10, bad. Dead.
Legends is an okay game in a pile of shit that was the rest of the franchise pre-Budokai (itself another okay game). Lowered expectations, I say.

Jedi Outcast: Ever innovative, Raven decided to put the worst levels at the BEGINNING of this glorified Quake II mod, to scare off anyone with an ounce of self-respect. Endless door-key puzzles, armed with shitty weapons, fighting shitty opponents in shitty places, and nobody involved seemed to have ANY comprehension of the word 'pacing'. Awful, awful game, even if you love Star Wars.
>>49
FFTA had a plot, eventually. at the very beginning, and then at the very end. would have been better if it didn't take so long to develop it, but then again... there wasn't that much to develop.
as for sucking... ehrgeiz. good final fantasy characters in a fighting game. bad noises. bad fighting engine. annoying end boss, because neither of you had a health bar to check as the credits rolled. square made me sad with that one.

Paladin's Quest. SNES i think. Its the most retarded RPG that ever existed. Its not bad for a laugh or too though.
The main guy's name is Chezni or some shit like that and people join you for virtually no reason. In battle, you can hit people with your belt.
Ahaha, man. Drakkhen. I remember that game. I also remember it having that bullshit big white line that divided a majority of the available landscape in two and whenever you tried to cross it an enormous dragon would drop down and tell you something about you not being allowed to do that. The dungeons were also incomprehensible and ever-meandering

[PCE] "Toilet Kid" on the PC Engine. Worst game ever, I swear.
[SNES, PCE, PCE CD] "Cho Aniki" whatever densetsu. It was a fighting game featuring bizarre backgrounds and gay (as in brown love) fighters. I am still talking with my counsellor about that one.
[PC] "Cosmology of Kyoto" -- this was an early, early CDROM game. One of the first ones ever. It is set in Japan. And horrible beyond description.
[PS2] Underworld

Oh lord, I played Cosmology of Kyoto, thanks to the glowing description on The Underdogs. I downloaded the thing on a shit 56k, then loaded it up expecting much amazingness.
"Horrible beyond description" is an understatement.

Damn right. Amazingly enough, Cosmology of Kyoto received excellent reviews not only on HOTUD, but also most gaming mags of that time and even Wired! Another example why one shouldn't give a shit about reviews.

I wanted to like it so bad...But it just never stopped sucking long enough. The sword being in his guitar was a nice touch. EP stank to high hells of nothing but Experiment Concept. Seems like they forgot the gameplay and storyline while being busy doing innovative things.
>>46
In spite of that Lagoon can't earn worst game ever due to the intro music. Took a whole week to wear that out for me.
>>60
Beats the rest of Square's lineup still.
The end fight was too easy for me, actually...although the fact you could botch it and make it unwinnable was pretty goofy. Was that intentional? O,o;

You can hit'em with anything really, since whatever you put in the item slots is used on you or on the enemy.

Probably not enough of a 'game' to warrant inclusion, or else this topic would be filled with other kinds of edutainment crap.
I'm going to have to nominate Renegade: Battle of Jacobs Star. It has potential past the halfway point which it squanders. But I'll be damned if I ever met anyone else that made it that far. Terrible looking graphics even for when it was released, very 'jumpy' and hard to line up a shot, voice actors stunk, and your commanding officer is named "Mother," not because he's a bad Mofa like Shaft but because he thinks of each and every one of you as his children. *BRAF*
Waste of good source material.
