Left 4 Dead is a pretty bad name, "We make games but we can't be bothered writing a four letter word" (I know that it's probably refering to the whole four player thing but I have no respect for anyone that uses numbers like that.)
Seconding this. Sure, it's a fairly clever play on words, but it's spelled "FOR", dammit.
Oh, and Empire Earth. It doesn't really make sense to me.

Jak and Daxter, its tjust the name of the 2 characters come on

love the games though
Odd... Jak and Daxter, Ratchet & Clank... Seems someone in charge of Playstation games needs to work on their creative title skills.

Can I add "THE HISTORY CHANNEL Great Battles of Rome" for its length and being crushingly boring to everyone apart from history bores like myself.
I keep seeing this game around but have heard nothing good about it. I'm a bit of a history bore myself when it comes to Rome, but does it come close to Total War?

I thought Left 4 Dead was like a sequel to another game (thus the 4) but I was wrong, so I don't really see the point in the title. Nonetheless, it's a really good game :D

THERE ARE FOUR SURVIVORS LEFT IN A DEAD WORLD.

WHAT THE FUCK IS SO HARD TO GET ABOUT THE NAME?

Burn the Rope.


...that's assuming we're talking about ANY game and not just the marketed ones.
Otherwise I'd raise my hand for any of the Tak games. Nothing against the series, but come on. Tak is a solid name but anything and everything they add on sounds like something you'd hear coming from the mouth a 7 year old.
But then again, I believe that's their target audience.

List of games i'll never even give more than a glance because of the name:

Jaws: Unleashed, Fire Warrior, Halo, Guild Wars, Tony Hawks Pro Skater (seriously, it sounds like a Barbie toy), 300 March to Glory
Dude, what? I went looking for Jaws:Unleashed because of the name. Also, you didn't play Halo because of the name? I gotta say alot of people believe there are plenty of other reasons to not play that game. (Don't abuse me fanboys, I liked it)
no no, i've played Halo...and sincerly wished i didn't. the name misleads as it decesnds from the heavens to hand us...Mediocracy. i know its evil intent now, and i see as do many others as EB Games used selection of Halo 3 gets bigger and bigger each time i go in XD
The word you're looking for is "mediocrity." And as for my suggestion of worst game name, well... someone already mentioned Infinite Undiscovery.

...Really? I didn't know substituting a number for a letter for a very good reason can stop you from respecting one of the most important and influential game developers. It seems a bit... simple minded, is all.

Myself, I'd go with E4: Every Extend Extra Extreme or something stupid like that. Spiffy little game, but a retarded name.
