The "Games so awful you gotta play them" thread

Post by Teancum »

Ever been looking on YouTube or somewhere and thought: "Man, that game looks stupid. . . But for some reason I MUST HAVE IT"? Well, here's mine:

KISS Psycho Circus: The Nightmare Child
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjed2QKmjQM

Definitely looks like a play, beat, uninstall, set the disc on fire kind of game. But there's something about those kind. I can't get enough of those terribly awesome games. I'm not a strategy guy, but Force Commander is an awesome example of that.


Anyone else have one?

Well I really can't think of any games like that, but the narrator in that trailer kinda reminded me of Microsoft Sam

I can't say I've ever been tempted to spend money on something I knew I wouldn't like.

Slightly different story, but Guild Wars. A friend of mine loves it and recommended it to me. So I bought it and played for a few weeks till I realized I didn't like it. Didn't dislike it either, just used it to kill time. So I uninstalled it right away, as it was getting pretty time-consuming for something I didn't enjoy.

Same story here. I only buy games that I know I'll like. Period.

Hmm... Lemme think. I'd probably say all the Chicken Invader games.

I actually enjoyed Zero Wing for what I played of it (first two levels). Very good for its genre.

Mine would be... LotR the Battle for Middle Earth 2. You can't command that many troops... I like it some. I loved the first.

Get a command point mod, you could then control thousands.
