I don't own any awful games on the 360...yet. I say that because I won a copy of Sonic Unleashed the other day so when that arrives, I will have an awful game. However, the worst in my collection at this minute is Smackdown Vs Raw 2007.
I dont have a worst game as such.... but the game I get bored of quickest is Forza 2... I just dont see the big hype it's pretty tame IMO maybe it would be better with a stearing wheel.
The majority of the games I own are 9.0 + on Gamespot... but my least favorite, one of the ones that is less than a 9, is Overlord. I just hated that game for some reason. I don't even have it anymore... sold it after about three days.
Assassin's Creed.... such a beautiful game, i pop it in to show friends how awesome the graphic and then i played it for like 30 min. and been doing the same thing ever since ... sad piece of digital art
[QUOTE="BurnsOfRage"][QUOTE="KevComesRipping"]People saying Gears of War, or Gears of War 2... c'mon, the only way I can allow this to be someones worst game is if it's the only game they own, or if it's in a very small collection. The worst 360 game I've owned so far is probably Timeshift, just uninspired, boring story, sloppy controls, to the tune of a cybernetic-time-warping-super-evil-government future YAWNKevComesRipping
Why? I thought it was labored and restrictive. The storyline was cheesy and and the characters ridiculous. The only reason that it got such a fan base was the hype and advertising, the use of the unreal3 engine(which at the time meant the first taste of a greatly anticipated game) and the fact that it was first out the bag of the next gen games. And from the posts Ive seen regarding Gears2 on here it seems that a lot of people have wised up to this, as they have tried to repeat the formula with no success Why, because it's polished, the controls work, the sound is not tinny scraps of metal scraping your ears to death, the voice work was well done, the environments were well implimented, and the story is easy to follow. Sure it can be over the top and jockish, but all you need is a sense of humor and a knack for a 3rd person shooter and you're gonna have fun playing it. People can complain about the new multiplayer all they want, but playing co-op campaign or in a group of friends and mowing through horde mode is great fun. If you haven't played a game to its strengths, in this case co-op, you shouldn't bash it. gears of war 1 & 2 ... it's like a summer action-movie, that's good for the season... but that's it..
It didn't say 'A bad game in your collection' just what the 'worst game that you own is' - so if you are unable to pick one that would mean you don't own any games.

Didnt mean to post that quote on its own :s Anyway.. Yeah the sound is good.. but I dont think the controls do work.. you get stuck to the wrong objects and walls sometimes when running towards an objective. And dont say its because I cant play well its because it is actually unavoidable... the same button to hit cover as to run? The voice acting is over the top, the environments are only well implemented if you like the same shade of gray and how was the story easy to follow.. I got it.. but you constantly see posts from people not even realizing its set on a different planet. Why should you need humor to play a game that is supposed to be a gorey gritty future war game? Just shows you how over the top it is.. And third person makes no difference to a shooter.. your still aiming by the reticule in the centre of the screen. Like I said in my first post.. plenty of complaints about the new games multiplayer. So apart from that I agree with everything you wrote. Oh and my worst game is actually dark messiah.. bought it for pc .. but it was so buggy it was unplayable.. then when I bought it for 360 I found out they had separated the main game into warrior/wizard etc classes.. which ruined it for me.
The worst game I own per Gamespot's ratings is Too Human. But I quite enjoyed Too Human and a game I spent 40 hours playing cannot be considered my worst or I wouldnt have that much time invested.
The worst game I own in my opinion is Guitar Hero 2. I got it after I got Rock Band just to play guitar on it but just never got into it.
I've played most of the games mentioned here and I think none of them are nearly as bad as 2K's all pro football. Football game with Hall of Fame players for my 360 that's gotta be worth the $20 Walmart has it for.....WRONG! Bad controls unfair AI and boring game play. I know some of you see a lot of sports games as boring but when you are a football fan and a game destroys it for you the game must be garbage. Also Saints Row 2 is high on the list of worst 360 games played.
For me. It has to be Final Fantasy XI. I was never a fan of FF to begin with. But since it was the only other MMO at the time "I had gotten sick of Phantasy Star" and wasn't the standared turn based JRPG like the others...I decided to give it a try. Now there might actually be a decent game to be played here. But getting passed the sign up and installation is nearly impossable. Before you actually play the game you have to install a program called "Play Online Viewer. POV is an online gaming service that functions much like Xbox Live, albeit much more confusing and usless. POV may be ok for people that don't use Xbox or Windows Live. But I already had an easy to use and reliable service. And I didn't need a shabby one to add more confusion. Nevrtheless Play Online Viewer was manditory to play the game so I signed up anyway. That takes about an hour or so. Time to install the game! I sign in to Xbox Live, then I sign in to POV as well. The game takes 6 hours to install on to the hard drive and takes up a wopping 5 Gigs. FoThats about half of your memery space on a standard Xbox drive! Truthfully, I have no idea how that game plays. By the time I created my character I was so fed up with it that I quit and canceled evrything before I got a chance to really play. Didn't even make it to a random creature battle.

it ain't WOW, but FF XI community is still very much active... i like it on the PS2
Definetly over g fighters , the only game tescos had .. being that this is the only store that sells games near my house , i would havebeen better with no game at all
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Great story, but worst gameplay ever. I find studying for finals more fun than playing it. Especially when i can just watch the cutscenes on Youtube.
I don't really have any bad games for the 360 but I suppose the worst of all of them is Crackdown.AAKH
Yeah I wouldn't call any of my games bad either, if I thought one was then I wouldn't hold on to it. So I guess my worst one would be Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway.
