I'm not too happy with Assassin's Creed honestly.

It ran and looked good on my comp, plus the keyboard/mouse was much better than the gamepad even for 3rd person platforming

How can you say that? The game feels every bit like a PC game to me. It's stable, it runs well, it controls well.

Saints Row 2 There's fun to be had, but the game still has some embarrassing issues that make it totally unplayable. RE4 is another mention. Unpatched, the game isn't even half of what the console versions are. I also gotta say, that for some odd reason GTA 4 is starting to go back to its unstable ways.

Indigo Prophesy. The controls just flat out sucked with mouse and keyboard (constantly requiring you to coordinate keypad presses with mouse 'click and drag' quick time events for damn near every action in the game. I thought ok, it's a console game, I'll grab my 360 controller and use that since they decided to mess up the otherwise interesting story and presentation with requiring controller based quick time events for everything... Unfortunately the game doesn't support the use of two analog sticks on the PC making it impossible to control the game with a controller without buying some third party fan made program. RE4 was bad and clumsy but it still worked better than this.

In recent times it was Divinity 2 : Ego Draconis I think - no matter what you did the game ran badly and slowly.

RE4 was not such a bad port. The controls were crappy to keep the survival horror feel instead of run and gun. The cutscenes could have been reworked though.

Any game that has one or more of the following

- Forced widescreen aspect ratio, with 4:3 letterboxed

- Framerate lock that's under 60 FPS

- No mouse support in menus

- "Press a button to start"

- Bad mouse & keyboard controls

- Un-remappable mouse & keyboard controls

- No graphics options aside from the resolution

- No dedicated servers if the game is a multiplayer game

- Has a GUI that feels like it should belong to a console (for example, Oblivion)

GRID doesn't have mouse support but it runs very well and has enough graphical options.

That sums it up pretty good

It does sum it up well. I hate not being able to change graphics options.

The forced Unleashed isn't so good....when your only graphical tweaks are changing the resolution, and can't use the mouse to navigate the menu, as well as horrid fps drops despite superior hardware, that is the sign of a bad port

Sonic adventure dx, sonic riders. sonic adventure should have stayed on the dreamcast, and sonic riders should have never been created, sonic has been dead since 200 (sonic adventure 2 dc). If only SA3 would come out and be good :-( (sonic adventure was my first game.)

What do you guys think is the worst port ever? I would have to say Saints row 2 ive heard Residant evil 4 was bad also.

-Origin-

DMC 4 (if you didn't have a 360 controller for ur pc),

Which has absolutely NOTHING to do with it being a good port or not, which it was an amazing port, lost planet also ran fine.

Every PC gamer has a keyboard and mouse, for a game to come to PC and assume otherwise is A.) Totally Ignorant B.) Somewhat insulting. (why should we have to buy a 360 controller to enjoy a game?) Saying that lack of KB+M support doesn't make a game a bad port is like porting an RTS for the 360 and saying it's perfectly reasonable to expect every 360 user to go out and get a KB+M because we were too lazy to support their controller.

Stupid Excuse. The game wasn't ment to be played with a keyboard. (DMC 4 or Lost planet) Every tutorial used the xbox's buttons to show you, even if you were using a keyboard, so controls had to be self taught. and dont even get my started on the final boss of Lost planet..

RE5 was not a bad port at all, In fact I'd say it was a great port. The game runs brilliantly and looks fantastic, controls are fine - it's gameplay design to be restrictive much like dead space. GTA 4 is not really a bad port. It's a factor of them including insane features that were never meant to be ran on the hardware at the time, essentially like Crysis. I'd say it's an average port, aside from the bad performance it's fine. Force Unleashed is surely the worst port, the game only has resolution as the only graphics option, even in GTA 4 you can turn things down to vey low.

Different games require different control schemes - this isn't an evil corporate agenda by obscure game developers, it's just plain fact. I wouldn't want to play, say, a game like GTA 4 with the mouse and keyboard (even though I could), nor would I want to play a strategy game like Warcraft 3 with a controller- that'd be ridiculous. The consoles are limited to one control scheme when it comes to games, but fortunately, for the PC, this is not the case.

Sure it sucks to have to go buy a $40 dollar Xbox controller to play some games - but imo the investment is definately worth it. I've had mine for almost a year and it hasn't broken (which is more than can be said for the 5+ $20 dollar ones I've had to buy during the same time-frame). I'd rather shell out the extra money and play games the way they're meant to be played.

while i have no problem with games that use the 360 controller, however if a developer decided instead of wasd or the arrow keys, that you should use TFGH, aim with 8,4,5,6 and fire with enter, Then proceed to teach you to play using a 360 controller and say "Run with the control stick" leaving you to learn for yourself. Yes, if i wanted to play DM4, Lost planet, GTA 4, or RE5 with a 360 controller, i'd go out, buy a 360, toss it infront of my TV and play that way. If you make a game on the PC, use/support standard PC controls

RE5 was a good port. Batman AA was a good one. These are some examples which I find it hard to tell if it was a port or if they had a separate department working on them. Why such hatred for Capcom? They have done pretty well with most of their titles. It's Codemasters that are going down. Just got the latest Dirt 2. Menus are next to impossible to navigate without a controller. Very slow loading....ewwwww....wish Steam offered refunds.

Try www.sarcasm.de (yes it's a former website for gaming made by Hitler himself, it was made to provide all the info necessary on games, not lies what they give us that Crysis was a PC exclusive title when it was just a port).

I've heard that the PC port for Saboteur was pretty bad. As in, it wouldn't work on ATI graphics cards on release O.olinkthewindow
Only bad for those with aTI cards, and there's a beta patch out now that fixes that. I've got a GTX 275 and it runs smooth as silk and is tons of fun.
