I just spent the day playing through Untold Legends: The Dark Kingdom. It's a horrible game, at first it was cool, but after the first 30 minutes passed, I was just frustrated for the next six hours of playing it. I also went out and bought Damnation, Destroy All Humans: The Path of the Furon, Shaun White: Skateboarding and Mindjack and I intend to play them all. I just have this weird attraction to bad games, I actually go out of my way to find them and I sometimes pick them over games that are meant to be good. It's like watching your cousin run into the glass screen door, time slows down, you want to look away or say something, but your just transfixed and when he hits, WHAM, I get a brief tingle, but then I feel bad and regret the time I spent oogling at the whole scene.
Bad games also have the coolest concepts, like Timeshift with time or Fracture with the whole terrain morphing thing. You don't really find those cool concepts in popular or critically acclaimed games.
So, do you guys and gals have a similar addiction? Got any recommendations on other bad games that I should play? Should I seek help?
Just a note: This is not a 'rag on COD' thread, some games are broken and plain bad and some just don't fit our tastes. I've learnt to differentiate between the two, I hate Super Mario Galaxy, but I don't think it's a bad game.
Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
