hah...
the worst for me is Tales from Heaven,
altho the gfx where ok (till the titlepicture everything was damn cool), but the playablity was totally crap...
more worse was that i actually brought it..
how stupid of me....
darkage should do more demos, than games ;)
that doesnt mean i disrespect the darkage crew now....

i agree with the fact that gloom 3 was also a bad game, totally unprofessional textures&design, "5year old pd-game alike" sounds, and no challengeing gameplay..

Well you are rigth there. But I can hardly stop playing it. :-)

Last Action Hero could have been done much better. It's the same every level wich is BORING! They could have done so much better. The movie was great.

There was an obvious lack of quality in the games directly ported from atari. Remembering playing live and let die and wondering whether I was playing on a c64

I remember that for a while they tried to sell shoot-em-ups done in SEUCK, all of which were truly horrible.

But my all time worst Amiga game: Dick Tracy. It is truly, truly bad.

One of the worst games I've played is Face-Off Ice Hockey by Krisalis.

It was obviously programmed by people who never actually seen a hockey game in their lives. And the fact that the Swedish hockey team actually consisted of the Swedish national football squad in the game was a nice touch too.  ;-)

Onslaught


Onslaught was a GREAT game imho. I always liked the moments when you cast multiple different spells (or weapons), making the screen full of explosions. I liked the feel of power in those moments. Oh, and the soundtrack (made by Maniacs of Noise) is totally brilliant, so much that I would like to make one day a remix.  :-)

About the worst games thread... anyone remembers Space Station by Janko Mrsic-Flogel? It looked like an early 8bit game. Also Bionic Commando was really awful, I remember playing it just to listen the tunes by Tim Follin.

LOL. Actually on the Fire Button site, the worst 5 games as voted by their visitors are:

1. Akira
2. Navy Moves
3. 'Allo 'Allo
4. Rise of The Robots
5. 4x4 Offroad Racing

Weirdly enough, I don't appear to own any of them...

Heh, I seem to recall alot of crappy games on the Amiga, but I'd have to agree that alot of movie based games suck, and they still do on the consoles.  Although I like T-2.  I would probably have to divide up my worst games though into categories, like worst arcade translation being the Amiga version of Street Fighter 2 (OCS), where the worst beat em up was Body Blows (awful collision detection).  And although it's practically a religion here, I thought the play of Shadow of the Beast sucked, was definitely great looking though.  I also hated the 8 bit ports that still looked 8 bit in graphics (Battle Toads, Ikari Warriors, etc.)  I really can't put my finger on one "worst game ever" though, as there were a number of games I didn't like for one reason or another.

1. Akira


Oh yeah, I had driven that from my memory.  Truly the worst game ever created since Custer's Last Stand on the Atari 2600.

Oh, and let's not forget the two games that came with the A1200 magic pack: Whizz and Pinball Mania.

Pinball Mania has to be the worst pinball sim ever, even compared to Microsoft's "3D" pinball.

Can't argue with that. The soundtrack is way cool!
