Topic: The Worst Games of all Time

Oh, sorry no, I didn't see your edit.
Regarding Sonic 06, the thing is, the story wasn't the sole cause of the game being bad. If the game could function properly and had that story, I doubt it'd still be on this list.

I'd agree with it being thought as "terrible" for the franchise, but what of these flaws make it something regarding the same as these games that were either so broken or so poorly made that everything about them can be counted as a flaw?
Metroid could have crushed and thrown out every expectation you had for it, but the game was not made badly. At least, not in the sense of these games.

It may not be broken like Red Steel, but like Red Steel, it's painful to play considering its terrible pacing and multiple other mediocre aspects. It all adds up to a terrible game. Whether you wholeheartedly agree or not.

Again its a matter of opinion of what each and every one of us thinks is bad. To some its bad programing and game design, but to others like me and Chrono_Cross, its more of how the game franchise was treated when making the game.

So is this argument basically 'whether or not a whole bunch of mediocrity put together equals something terrible or it equals something mediocre'?
Because If that's the case I'll understand and accept your argument, since there's no way either of us are going anywhere productive arguing that.

When a franchise has a certain standard to meet, and the entirety of the game is everything below average, it's terrible. Most of Other M's aspects are absolutely terrible and it sincerely compliments the rest of the game in the utmost negative way.

Also, I'm not sure who said it, but someone said Twilight Princess was the Other M of the Legend of Zelda series. That's the biggest lie I've heard on the internet in a long time.

I'd say it was the CD-i games, but that's not very analogous to what Other M was supposed to be.

In many ways Other M is the equvalent of the CDi Zelda games. A mess and a mockery of the high profile franchise its based on.

@Cactus_Cross
I'd rather not have this continue into another of your famous disagreements, so let's just drop it.
Metroid Other M is one of the worst games ever created and is as just as terrible as every one of these games, and just as broken as well. The developers of this game should be ashamed of how poorly they made a game.
sigh

You don't need to agree with us if you feel differently, but there are thousands of other games out there that are deemed horrible for more that just being shovelware.

And next time a topic of this sort ever comes up again, don't pull one of your famous "know-it-all" stunts like this one. It's uncalled-for.

@Austroid
My "agreeing with you" was just being me trying to show how ridiculous it was... but never mind.

Okay look, you can say Metroid Other M is horrible, okay? You can believe that. I was never not fine with that. But how is it one of the worst games of all time? How does every single aspect off it fill you with rage? Because from your comments you seem to have enjoyed the parts that weren't cutscenes. But those alone pushed it into the group of worst games of all time?
I simply can not comprehend this so I will stop trying.

@Chrono_Cross
Okay. I'm sorry. Did I need to have been here a certain amount of time before I can make statements that exist only to bug people who think otherwise? It seems to occur often in some other threads. If that is the case, I'll refrain from doing it until I can be completely certain no one will take it further than just displaying my opinion in a more flashy way.

I've already explained to you what aspects are full of absolute mediocrity. When combined, develops a terrible game.

Just accept someone else's opinion. It shouldn't keep you up at night.

Metroid Other M is not a good game, but it is far from being the worst game of all time..

It perminately damaged a near-perfect franchise's image. The Zelda CD-i games were from the mid 90s, and are now looked at being "so bad they're good." But this is the series's most recent game, who knows what will become of it now. Sure Miyamoto says he wants to make a Wii U entry, but we don't know when that'll be, and until then Other M's bad taste will still be in our mouths.

Um, no it's not:

As you can see, he's specifically asking for a majority rules class of games. Other M is not among those games if you look at the reviews and user responses.

I understand that. I realize it tainted the image of Metroid for you and tainted your expectations. I understand that. I can understand that you find it terrible, an awful game. But I do not understand how someone can condemn it to the same place of these games that literally do not function as games should.
...
...No. ...Wait...I...I do understand. There are times when something upsets us so much that we hate it so much that we consider it the worst of the worst.
I... get it now. I don't agree, but that doesn't matter.

What does matter is that Final Fantasy: All the Bravest Belongs on this list.

@TysonOfTime All the Bravest isn't a game. It's a fireworks display. It's that simple.

No opinions allowed huh? What is this a totalitarian thread? If you want to list the worst of the worst, look up all those same-old top ten lists every site known to man puts up for traffic. or watch AVGN.

Quick question: would you honestly rather play a game like Ninjabread man or Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis than play Other M?
