Game development is a pretty daunting task. It requires extensive labour and creative prowess over a long period of time. With the number of people in development teams ranging in the hundreds, it’s understandable that there are many moving parts to a game. If one breaks, it could derail the whole project. Sometimes, despite getting all things right on a technical level – things just don’t click. Either way, this results in a bad game, that most likely critics and gamers wouldn’t be willing to spend their time on. There has been no shortage of such games in the medium, and on that note – here are 15 such games that are so bad that you probably didn’t even care to finish them.

Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing

2003’s Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing is regarded as one of the worst games in the history of the medium, with good reason. The Stellar Stone developed title involves players making their way through the US in an effort to get cargo goods delivered within time. In actuality, however, playing it is an exercise in pain as you try to wrestle with the game’s multitude of bugs and other technical inefficiencies that will make you want to throw your controller in the air.

Afro Samurai 2 Pulled From Sale, “Game Was a Failure”

Remember Afro Samurai 2, the terrible action title which faced much critical scorn and was reviled for its technical issues? As it turns out, the game was recently pulled off Steam, Xbox Live and PSN by publisher Versus Evil. Refunds are also currently being offered.

As CGM reports, Versus Evil GM Steve Escalante apologized for the game’s state and announced the cancellation of volumes 2 and 3 of the series. “The game was a failure. We could not do, in good conscience, volume 2 and volume 3.

“So we’ve begun the process, it’s been a long process to figure it out because Sony has never really had to do this in this way, but we’re returning all the money. So across the board we’re putting out an apology saying ‘sorry about this.’”

Though this was the best option at the end of the day, one has to wonder why Afro Samurai 2 was released in such a state to begin with. Then again, when push comes to shove, both a developer and publisher may be motivated to try and recoup as much on the initial cost as possible.
