10 Games That Are SO BAD They're Almost GOOD

some games we play because we love some games we don't play because we hate in some games are just so bad they're good hi folks its Falcon and today on game ranks 10 games so awful they're actually good number 10 we have South Park Nintendo 64 do you remember when a claim made a South Park game in 1998 now you might have played this game thing he was good I did there weren't really a lot of first-person shooters at the time and it was a South Park game where they talked this was obviously over 20 years ago though and I don't think I was old enough to understand some of the flaws of this game it's kind of really weird that it was a first-person shooter at all I mean it's funny you're throwing urine snowballs at turkeys but what also the turkeys are not a good enemy they're not smart the AI is terrible in this game there's no stakes and well let's just go ahead and say like it was before it was possible to make a game that actually looked like South Park unless you made like a 2-d game and they were like no we're making a first-person shooter and like I said it was a Nintendo 64 game so it was on a cartridge so it had very limited storage so there wasn't a lot of voice acting and yet you heard voices talking very often so as you might be able to expect it was pretty repetitive if you watch Matt Stone and Trey Parker talk about the fractured but whole game they did not love the first attempts at South Park Games and they decided that they basically had to be involved with it otherwise it was gonna be bad but it did have the effect of being so bad like everything was kind of lazy and weird in a way that was super endearing and fun even though it maybe wasn't good number 9 is Star Wars masters of Tara skocy if I'm saying that correct look do you remember when there was so many Star Wars games you didn't know what to do and now we're all like yeah let's touch on that expanded universe stuff there were Star Wars platformers Star Wars racing games and this was a Star Wars fighting game on paper that sounds amazing and in truth back in the day I remember getting a demo of this game and thinking it was cool as hell when you go back to it it's like mmm maybe I didn't really know what a good fighting game was maybe I kind of just thought the lightsabers were really cool to have in a fighting game like it is one of the slowest fighting games it was slow to play and if you watch it oh is it slow to watch go and look at some videos at this game it is yikes every single aspect of this game is super sluggish from attacking to blocking to especially the movement oh my god you know how Jedi are fast not in Star Wars masters of Tara Skye see like it had really good graphics so I'm gonna go ahead and say that and head marry Jade Skywalker as an unlockable character he's the core gameplay quote-unquote good hmm not really but I mean the lightsabers look awesome and again marry Jade Skywalker who is now rendered nothing by the entire Star Wars Canon he's a palatable character in this game number eight is Shaq foo what do I need to say about Shaq foo okay okay okay so Shaq liked Mortal Kombat right and like got in touch with people and they wanted to make a game with him so they made Shaq foo which is Shaquille O'Neal finding himself in a dojo and forget basketball he has to save a kid from an evil mommy in a fighting tournament yeah you know what basketball stars normally do this game was bad and when people say like is this game as bad as people say yeah uh-huh the controls were not just bad but like awkward like you don't want to describe controls as awkward but they were awkward clunky and strange didn't do what you thought they would do they didn't really respond like the game at true inspiration from Mortal Kombat at all and everybody was really small like I mean on the screen they were tiny it was more like a beat'em up than a fighting game because at that point again Mortal Kombat kind of created the expectation of larger fighters on the screen and in every aspect it's a simplistic uninspired awkward fighting game that sometimes looked kind of good but on the whole is just so ridiculous and outlandish and when you play it that's what's good about it it's it's not the game it's the fact that it's a game it shouldn't be in every single moment of the game you're thinking wow this should not be and oddly enough that makes it fun number seven is sonic tooth and six I'll know if we can detail every reason why sonic 2006 is bad but good here but let's start with the fact that he's basically in love with a human woman I'm not sure how to say it otherwise because every single aspect of the story basically points us towards them being in a relationship they never actually explicitly say anything like that but I mean and this was a year before be movie you can't even say they were like copying b-movie the weird like animal human relationship oh yeah and the controls for the game and the level design and the character models and the graphics and the story and the everything just nothing about this game is good it's so bad and it's not even like complete like the finished product is not even vaguely a finished product sure it has all the content in it but it is perhaps one of the buggiest messes that has ever been constructed and released to the public at least by a studio that has the means not to do that oh and the voice acting is laughably bad so as you can't get through the poorly constructed levels because they're not just poorly constructed they're also coated badly and nothing works I mean I don't I just I don't know what Sega was thinking and that makes me love it it's genuinely like playing some sort of proof of concept where like they got like people in the office to do the voices because they knew that they'd have to change it eventually and like they obviously are very early in the production process because nothing works right and yet this is the state that they plugged all of the content into and burnt it to a bunch of discs and sold it to people for $60 it's amazing number sixties night trap ah good ol night trap I'm sure basically everybody who is alive during the 1990s is somehow aware of this either from playing it or the re-release that was done a while back it's probably one of those cheesy and campy games ever and that's the reason why it's so bad it's good it's not well acted it's not well written you're a member of a fictional police force that's watching live surveillance footage of a house and you have to protect the houseguests from vampires that look like ninjas I don't know what to say to you it's the game it's really weird and it was the subject of a United States congressional hearing about violence and video games too cuz you know ninja vampires are the worst thing I can think of senators claimed that night rat was violent promoted aggression towards women and can be used alongside mortal combat as examples of violence and video games now sure Mortal Kombat was pretty violent but night trap is dumb it's silly looking it has no real violence in it nothing that looks realistic even by miral combat standards has no nudity and maybe it doesn't have the best attitude towards women but I'm not so sure that it really deserved attention at all nowadays things like Grand Theft Auto and still Mortal Kombat are way more violent than I trap was weirdly enough night trap kind of had a hand in getting the ESRB created so while the game itself is goofy as hell it actually did have a pretty big part in video game history number 5 is Garfield cart I'm just gonna repeat that name Garfield cart Garfield cart isn't gonna go down in history as one of the greats let's say or maybe even go down in history at all it's so bad it's terribly optimized it runs like a big piece of dog crap and let's say you were to go ahead and make the frame rate acceptable and stop the crashes the controller support man all right maybe you can tell from my tone here that it's just like this is a game I don't know if you've ever played this you know that it's not really as bad as people who think that Nintendo should be the only company making cart games thanks but it's bad I think that though I would say it is bad at least it isn't really trying to say that it's something different like Garfield Cart that's the description of the game you get it right that's it everything you expect when I say the words Garfield Cart that's it and for whatever reason that kind of makes it better I mean over time some bugs that reviews talked about we're fixed so if you're wanting to get into Garfield cart it's a better experience now it's got a multiplayer beta but I mean it's less than a dollar so I don't really know what you have to lose like I said it's garfi carton you know exactly what that is from the words Garfield and cart number four is fitty cent blood on the sand and yes you say it fitty cent not $0.50 it is actually the sequel to fitty cent bulletproof yes there are two games starring fitty behind bulletproof was a little better than the sequel to be completely honest it was kind of grounded in reality a bit it was about fitty trying to get revenge on the hit men that tried to take him out if you recall vide cent has actually been shot in the chest blood on the sand on the other hand mmm a promoter in the Middle East who hired fit he sent to do a show refuses to pay him but after being threatened offers a skull covered in diamonds that skull is stolen by terrorists and fitty cent and g-unit have to get it back which I mean I don't know how that's what you come up with after kind of revenge fantasy about being shot in the chest for real I mean the game itself actually isn't terrible as far as controls it's a fairly solid Gears of War type cover shooter but it is absurd it is that like there is no excuse for that story to exist it's just there isn't one it's one of those games where you're just like happy something so goofy can exist and even happier that it's not the worst thing you've ever played controls wise but every other aspect of it is just silly it functions as a parody of itself and is enjoyable for that reason number three is rogue warrior like let's start off saying this game is kind of mediocre it's a really generic FPS it has got a silly story and the gameplay is it's kind of boring its uninspired I don't know that I would say it's the worst thing ever but I would say that it's the most unremarkable games I've possibly ever seen I would call it bad but not the worst so why is it even interesting at all well let's ask mr. mickey rourke voice of the player character I do not know whose idea it was to make of all people Mickey Rourke throw around cheesy Duke Nukem style one-liners but every 30 seconds you get that and the writer apparently just learned curse words because they were like haha good upbringing the cursing like every other word is curse word and sometimes like it's mainly curse words and yes it is actually that dad and it's like I don't have a problem with curse words I almost think that like this person just really wanted to hear Mickey Rourke curse a lot this game is also apparently based on a book that a real marine wrote about his own life and I need to read that book like I haven't thought about this game in years and it was during the course of this that I found out it was about a book and I just want to read that book desperately at the moment number two is deadly premonition which is one of the trickier games on this list it has a cult following it's basically because it's a really quirky game it's a horror detective adventure game for the ps3 xbox 360 era and I think the people that liked it know that it's really like kind of not good and they kind of embrace it because it's ultra cheesy like beyond the game kind of doesn't embrace it so one minute there's a sort of grim murder investigation and then the next there's like wild pop-culture references cringy dialog and jazz saxophones it's like if a Japanese developer tried to make a Twin Peaks game but just kinda not like really fully embrace everything that shows about but aesthetically embrace what the shows about also the controls sound and graphics are obviously low-budget and not the biggest priority of the developers I guess it's a rough game with some pretty bad controls there are things about this game that make literally no sense at all - and like the thing is it's so weird and Goofy and I don't want to insult anybody but it feels like one of those so bad it's amazing masterpiece type games and finally number one big rigs over the road so when you look at this game you're playing as a truck and there are very few times that you play as a truck in a racing game this is one of those times also the physics are very strange you act in some ways kind of like you're glued to the ground there's a few ways that you can crash but very few I don't know you may owe we're all just kind of here somewhat of a hesitancy in my voice it's because although I've played this game this is a game that defies explanation we are including footage of it but it cannot properly attribute the feel of the controls how absolutely numb the AI is it says it's a racing game it's mmm I mean there is technically a race going on but you're not really racing someone or something or even some code you're really not doing that this is I mean borderline not a game but in the mask of being a game like it looks like a game if you weren't watching a video for more than a you know maybe 30 seconds of it you would be under the impression that you're looking at a truck-driving game and if you managed to complete the race you're met with the message that your winner not you're a winner you're a winner and let's be clear like all of these things add up to depending on your perspective the worst game ever as many reviewers called it or the most amusing thing that you've ever seen in your entire life if you play it with some friends I don't really mean play with some friends you can't really do that it's a single-player game what games in your opinion are
