I remember really loving Conflict: Desert Storm back in the OG Xbox days. I don't think it was a great game, but my bro and I had a lot of fun playing it.

Oh my god my brother and I LOVED this game. As the younger brother, I was always relegated to waiting in the jail cell as Foley on the first mission. Good times.

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. Can’t go wrong with broken and non-existent physics.

I had a ton of fun with Too Human which I think we all agree is objectively not great. I may be the only one though 😬

Shadow The Hedgehog has got great gun play, some of the best music in the franchise and there are some great moments from it. But why did we need to go ice skating everywhere and how come we couldn't play every level in one grand hurrah without getting 100%.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Is my game port fucked or is it just the zone. That's the fun part you don't know!

The epitome of this is Deadly Premonition.

It’s batshit insane, the characters are crazy, the plot is a mess and the gameplay is a joke with terrible driving, awful combat, dreadful QTE’s and an awful map.

But it’s also ridiculously charming, oozing with personality and heart. The cast may be crazy and absolutely insane but they’re also loveable and fun to interact with. It may be ugly but the world is oddly peaceful and tranquil and while the story may be a convoluted mess it also packs some pretty solid twists.

It’s Twin Peaks the game and it’s perfect, but it’s also really shit, but kind of great, I guess?

Crime Wave on DOS

Music was in MOD format, which was a game changer for those that didn't have a soundcard but PC Speakers only.

I fucking love that game, it’s so bad and weird

[–] pygmeedancer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I wouldn’t say Just Cause is so bad it’s good. It’s more like it’s really good in spite of being really bad. I love that series so much.

[–] MrMindGame@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Beyond: Two Souls falls squarely into the camp category because while playing it, you get the sense that everyone involved is treating this game and story with 100% serious, complete conviction. And so-bad-it’s-good camp can only truly exist, IMO, when the creators are actually trying to do something legitimate and fall absolutely on their faces doing so, without a shred of irony or self-awareness.

But make no mistake, BTS fucking sucks, and my appreciation for it is 100% schaudenfreude.

I thought this was the goal of far cry blood dragon. Go so overtly over-the-top 80's scifi action movie bad that it's actually good.

Shadow warrior.

All its parts might make a good game but its narrative is ridiculous and thus a masterpiece 😂

Super Smash Bros Melee. The game has so much jank and Nintendo wishes it didn't exist. While some of the jank makes characters and maps unplayable, it also resulted in stuff like the OP Shine move which is the foundation of the Melee competitive scene.

Star Ocean 5 for me, the story is so comically mind numbingly nothing and the gameplay is so easily broken.

„The Last Oricru“

It is like a Souls-Like RPG that can be plaed co-op in split screen. I played it with a friend and we had a blast.

The MC, called Silver, talks and acts like a 12 year old but everybody tells him all the time how witty and charming he is. But his wit and charm is basically calling people a „poop nose“ which he does all the time.

The story is confusing at best. Just as a small example. I still don‘t know what an Oricru is. I am pretty sure they never mention the name till the last cutsceen.

I bought it for 30$ and I regret nothing. You can kinda see that the developers bite off more than they could chew but gave it an honest shot.

[–] CyberBinary@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) was that for me as a kid. My friends and I would pass the controller around with each death. That dynamic made the glitches funny for everyone but the one currently playing.

Saints Row IV? some people (people who played the other saints row games before) really dont like it but i (who played it as one of my first ps3 games knowing nothing about it as a like 10 year old) like it

Ride to hell retribution is "The Room" of video games. Not even an exaggeration. It's got terrible acting, writing, pointless random sex scenes that drag on, it just needs spoons and Tommy Wiseau. It was supposed to be an open world biker game, but instead it's just pure fking gold. Watch a playthrough and tell me I'm lying. If you're brave enough to play it yourself, be warned, it also plays like shit.

Vigilante 8 on PS1.

  • Graphics: Bad.
  • Voice acting and in game dialogue: corny and terrible.
  • Gameplay: extremely clunky.

The game overall? Fucking fun!

I think those CD-I games are so bad, they're legendary.

[–] Flimsy_Demand7237@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Ride to Hell: Retribution. I played that to finish, and although pretty much every part of the game was bad, or some overused videogame trope, or poorly voice acted, there's a charm about a brawler that isn't filled to the brim with all the modern videogame trappings and the bugs and poor gameplay make you laugh. And that theme riff that starts up every fight got stuck in my head.
