Agreed, on both of the Myst games. I almost bought it once, but just couldn''t bring myself to it. Think I bought a game pad instead. What really clinched it for me what when I heard of the ''reward'' at the end of the game. That''s pathetic!

And people, this is Worst GAME of the 20th century, singular!!! I''ll give some room and say that different platforms or genres count, but only a few, please!

Quake III Arena and Tomb Raider.
Quake III Arena-
The most mind numbingly boring game on the planet. The multiplayer is a twitchfest. I swear, the train little children from birth just so they can twitch faster than me in this game. It''s just soo, soo, soo boring. I don''t care what anybody says, the deathmatch is so LAME. I cannot get into it at all. Play UT or TFC if you want a real game.

Tomb Raider(all of them) -
Criminy. I played 5 minutes of a demo, and felt like puking. No gameplay whatsoever. It''s like they''re selling bloody porn site in a box.

Hey, I was a kid once. I bought stupid stuff. Or had it given to me. Or picked it up on the bargain rack out of curiosity. Or was unfortunate enough to play it with a friend. Many of whom I question referring to as "friend" when I look back on all the crap they exposed me to. Ashamed to say I actually bought Myst. And I do actually like some games. Like the old Atari games, the Castlevania series, especially Symphony of the Night, Battletoads, Falcon 3.0, Blackthorn, Doom, Grand Theft Auto, Wing Commander Privateer, Delta Force, R6. Just there''s a lot of shit out there, and I''ve handled a lot of it.

Sean,

Amen on Quake III.

What were R6 and Blackthorn. Never heard of either.

R6 is Rainbow 6. Blackthorn is an old 2D sidescrolling action/adventure game from Blizzard.

Chameleon Twist for the N64....all about a chameleon who was transformed and you get to use your tounge throught the game as a weapon...They made a sequel to this I might add.

I hate to admit this even though I am a huge FF Fanatic, but FF8 was teh biggest dissapointment in my gaming career.

Game i don''t like:

- all Quacke
- the Nomad Soul ( lot of promise but few in game )
- Diablo ( for me is a Quacke in 2D and click-click-click- click-click-click-click-click-click-click-click)
- Ghost & Gouslh ( atari ST, bad gameplay )


Game i like:

- Jagged Alliance 2
- Fallout 2 ( great game )
- Panetscape Torment ( short but good )
- Speedball 1 & 2 ( Atari ST )
- Lemmings ( Atari ST )
- Turrican 1 & 2 ( Atari ST )
- Bloodwish ( Atari ST, Dungeon Master like but with a two
player mode )

Game i wait:

- Neverwinter Nights
- Arcanum

Worst Games:
1. Diablo...like someone said "click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click"
2.

2. Quake Series....No Plot, all brown, however they do have great DM play.

3. OutPost 2....boring..unimaginitive.

4. Tomb Raider...Boring
Best Games:

1. Half-Life..Interesting, plot, other colors than brown.

2. Outwars...Sure it was buggy and didnt sell well but i thought it was fun and had a prtty good storyline and cinematics.

3. Starcraft...again a decent plot, great cinimatics and plenty of singleplayer action.

Hello everybody out there!

What I personally think of iD''s serious of action shooter:

Wolfenstein 3D -- nice for a beginning
DOOM -- the best game they ever produced
DOOM ][ -- "Levelpack" for DOOM...ah, and yes...the SuperShotgun...

QUAKE -- not as good as DOOM, but still very playable
QUAKE II -- that''s 100:1 to QUAKE, or DOOM. I didn''t like it
QUAKE III-- worst Multiplayer game I ever saw. I''m sure if iD would have removed the blood, noone would even mention it ...If you want a really good Multiplayer Game, purchase "Unreal Tournament"!!!

So, now I can make a list of the games I like the least :

* Quake2 and Quake3
* Die Hard 2 (PC Version)
* no "real" RPGs such as Diablo a.s.o. A "real" RPG for me is a game like "Ultima 5", "Ultima 6" or "Ultima 7"...
* I was quite disappointed by "Ultima IX", too. It was a good game, but it wasn''t a good ULTIMA

The games I like most :
* Unreal Tournament
* DOOM
* Ultima-serious (including Underworld)
* Worms (funny to play with friends)
* Bomberman (oh yes...that game is really funny)
* Jazz Jackrabbit 2 (funny Jump&Run)

Yours,

It''s tough to peg a worst game, there are quite alot I found pretty bad.

The Tomb Raider Series for mainly the way the camera would often view from one side or the front of Lara when she''s backed to a wall so you can''t see what''s coming to kill you (Got killed by a bear in a few places because of that). Because of the camera, auto aim was sometimes a big help.

SWAT 2, in order to solve the game you had to arrest all terrorists, find all evidence and rescue all hostages, but if you arrested all terrorists and rescued all hostages, and you have a couple of guys going for some evidence you can see the level suddenly ends because the last captured or rescued person were removed from the building. A real pain.

Syndicate, no AI for any of your squad. If you split a squad, start combat with one or two guys, the others get killed because they don''t know how to shoot back.


There''s many more but this post is getting a bit long
