Earthworm Jim 64. Like I knew from my Official Nintendo Magazine that Clayfighter was bad but I just found stuff like that weird and sort of fun in that way kids do. Earthworm Jim made me realise that some stuff was just really bad and I hated it.

I got to tell the lead developer this on Twitter a few weeks ago and he apologised for it existing and said it should never have shipped lol

When Oblivion first came out I loved it, played it nonstop, would go on the official forums and get into flame wars with people who said it sucked, just absolutely lived Oblivion. Then after probably 300+ hours I was playing like any other day having fun, and then suddenly it hit me like a bolt of lightning from God: oh my god this game loving sucks rear end. Loved it one second, had a divine revelation and hated it the next, no in between.

Lmao yeah except it was like 20 hours. I ordered the version with the dumb coin and everything and thought it was the best game ever and then something clicked and I went insane and based my identity around hating it for like two years.

I got banned from the Bethesda forums for saying I didn't like it but they said it was for posting porn in threads I'd never posted in.

That game made me really confused and frustrated as a kid when I was meanwhile totally ok with stuff like Gex 3 and Glover. What a piece of poo poo

I even got some fun out of Starshot: Space Circus Fever for god's sake and that is absolutely a molested kid game

The buck bumble theme sonf gave me early onset irony poisoning and I occasionally find myself mumbling it to this day.

Enter the Matrix was ok. Path of Neo was completely deranged and it was fascinating. When you get to the final boss, 8 bit Wachowski siblings appear and explain that video games are dumb as poo poo so they changed the ending and then you fight a giant Voltron Smith made of hundreds of Smiths

It was, when it was letting me play it.
I hoped they'd put the gameplay into GtaV but they just went back to mush controls auto aim again.

Max Payne 3 had such great moment to moment gameplay and whoever decided it would be a side piece to an unbearably miserable unskippable drama about a day in the life of Plutonis should be murdered

Got Subnautica last night partially because of Net Cafe Scandal posting about it and it was absolutely incomprehensible to me. All I can figure out how to do is swim down and then drown. If he reads this thread he owes me an explanation

It's the best modern open world twitch streamer early access indie survival base building sim, and is still bad.

speaking of jurassic park, i definitely hated the SNES one with the weird, blurry FPS segments, but the overworld music at the start of the game was really good

Oh man I forgot this existed. It was completely impenetrably weird
