Re: Worst game you ever played any format?
Sword of the stars 2 on release. Worst release i've seen in a long time, sadly i was stupid enough to get hyped up by it and had it pre-ordered. One year later the game finally has had its last few bugfixes and made it playable... by then the price dropped by 75%. I learned my lesson since then and haven't pre-ordered any game since.

Dragon Age 2. What the hell was that crap. A wave system where enemies literally drop from the ****ing sky over and over again, so there is no way to tactically manage your cooldowns because you have no idea how many enemies there will be. No tactical overhead view made the combat even more of a complete cluster****. Not to mention the repeated use of environments, it felt like every quest was in warehouse A, warehouse B, Cave A, or Cave B. In the end I turned it down to easy just so I could finish the story and even that was ****ing terrible.

Clive barkers Jericho on PC. Terrible gunplay and idiotic AI.
Re: Worst game you ever played any format?
Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness. Flipping awful compared to the first few. Although they did quite well with the latest one.
Re: Worst game you ever played any format?
Going to be controversial but Red Dead Redemption. Gave up after about an hour. Probably not fair but just found the whole thing to be pointless

My first ever gaming experience was a ge called Granny's Garden and it was dull dull dull.

Jet set Willy.
If you don't know why, you didn't play enough of it.
Re: Worst game you ever played any format?
This is gonna sound like me being fussy but Deus Ex: Invisible War. I picked it up on steam sale really cheap since I figured it cant be bad enough to not be worthwhile for <£1 even if just for the story. As it happens I've currently lost all will to attempt to play it because the game frequently requires full reloads when entering a new area and each individual area is tiny.
Shouldnt really have expected much of a very dated console port I guess, just expected a little more since the original still runs well on PC, partly due to help of 3rd party fixes and partly just because it was well made for PC.

Would that be the original release that needed the poke so you could actually complete it, or just the fact that it is hard as nails and requires the dexterity of a Russian gymnast just to get past the first few screens without losing all your lives!!!
Manic Miner can be just as bad, same goes for JSW2 as it is the same game as the first one but they added an extra 40 or so screens, definitely one for masochists!!!
There is also Technician Ted (The Chip Factory) by Hewson, another one where the 128k version had even more screens making it even harder to get through!
Then there was the Monty Mole games, thankfully not quite as hard as JSW, Manic Miner & Tech Ted and they were manageable but still tough, especially Monty on the Run where if you selected the wrong items at the beginning it made things even harder, especially if you didn't select the passport!!

Duke Nukem forever. Took 10 years to develop and this is what they end up with?

Ha. Duke 3D was my game growing up and so was properly excited by this. Don't think I played more than 3 hours!
