You know your game is terrible when...

[Shadowsafter]

Ohhh no we wouldnt have nintendo! Oh wait, are those the ones whose flagship new game is a remake of an n64 game that i literally mistook for the original when i saw it...the guys who have recycled mario, zelda, and just about every character they've ever created so much that if those characters had walked the distance they have in all thier adventures have worn their shoes down?
NOT THEM, I TAKE IT ALL BACK!

You know your game is terrible when stores don't want to buyback for used after a week on the shelves.

 

[hyperdrachen]

You know your game is terrible when a gamestop employee won't recommend it.

 

[repeating integers]

when you manged to put a chainsword (thats a chainsaw sword) in it and it still sucks

Wow. How do you manage to screw up a game with a Chainsword in it?

just so you know, this means war!

Also, almost all unique and interesting games are made by japan devs. We wouldn't even have nintendo without them! A lot of american developers are the ones that make fps games that want to be halo or modern warfare. aka, every bland game.

Poor argument there (never minding that "bland" is a rather meaningless and subjective insult), western devs make plenty of good, interesting games. Even excluding the ones you obviously dislike due to their popularity.

We could probably get by without Japanese games. Well, by now we could. Stuff like Mario and Metroid is awesome, but now they've had their heyday. JRPGs are so polarising I'm not gonna bring them up (I haven't played any anyway, besides maybe Pokemon Gold and Ruby if they count).

You know your game is terrible if too many people talk about it and a certain friend recommended it to you

Do I detect a hint of "tongue-in-cheek" here? I hope so.

Why is it that half the reasons in this thread already apply to existing games?

You know your game is terrible when Reaver shoots the last boss for you

This again? When are going people going to understand that Fable 2 doesn't have a last boss, just a conclusion.

You know your game is terrible when Reaver shoots the conclusion for you.

Best post ever xD
Congratz.

You know your game is bad when you get so bored with it after you complete it that you can't play it again.

 

[AnAngryMoose]

you know a game is terrible when the boxart have to much cleavage

I beg to differ!

OT: When you have an online community of 15 people (Red Faction:Guerrilla)

 

[Mechsoap]

When you finish it in 4 hours or the genre starts with J

you think portal was bad?

OT: when the disc self destructs if you touch it.

then i know at least 7 of these people...

 

[estoria-etnia]

When you start to wonder if the disc is sharp enough to slit your throat with.

When you play in for several hours and still have no idea what the fuck is going on.

 

[Tipsy Giant]

it is an unnecessary sequel

 

[EatPieYes]

When Jack Thompson approves of it.

 

[Mr Companion]

-You know its a terrible game when its mentioned on this forum
-Or when you forget to throw it away. It was so uninteresting you actually forget to dispose of it.
-When the player spends all their time playing it thinking of other things they could do instead.
-When a cutscene goes on for more than an hour.
-When there are twice as many copies in the second hand section than the normal section.
-When you clench your teeth at its name being mentioned.

-When Nintendo official magazine gives it below 5/10, anything less then ten in Nintendo official magazine means its bad, below 5 means they would risk losing their jobs just to keep people away from it.

 

[Pandora92]

You know your game is terrible when the title contains both the word "Call" and the word "Duty".

 

[Alberio]

When you'd rather be playing E.T. on the Atari.

Quoting Yatzee: When "you have to entertain yourself while playing a game."

Wow. How do you manage to screw up a game with a Chainsword in it?

I have no idea but if you manage it you would have a shitty game

I think it might be the Paper Mario one.

 

[Choppaduel]

... when achievements are a marketing point.

Oh, phew. I thought you were referring to a real game.

Yeah, that would suck.
