This is an incredibly tough question. I'll say Assassin's Creed, as it can't run on my (and many other's from what I've read) computer for ten minutes without crashing. I imagine it's a fun game, but step one of a good game is actually working.

I think it's a tie between Unreal 2 and Sudeki for me, luckily I didn't spend much money on either game.

Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour

Played the original Generals for hours...days...weeks...moths.. still playing it... Original Generals is a simple, but brilliant and very balanced online strategy game ;)
But Zero Hour was the most shitty ass unbalanced online strategy game EVER, they FUCKED up a perfect game !
This sadness is from a few years ago.. but still I feel the pain...

WHAT!
That game was epic- and I rarely ever take to playing games on the PC (apart from this, of course).
Funnily enough, I never heard anyone complaining about having problems-- unless they were trying to hack and write an image of it. :-k

Well it does get boring after a while, even with achievements, and that's alot to say.

Legend of Zelda Four Swords. Hands down. It completely departed from the entire point of Zelda and looked shitty.

I had a EA F1 game (97 or 98) for my ps1
I played that game for ages. I would set damage to on and drive as Pedro de la Rosa in an arrows or a minardi (because i got that good) and take loads of satisfaction nerfing schumacher into the barriers to make Ferrari score f*ck all.
the X button was accelerate and the square button was brake. the graphics were ok, but nothing special, so when i got a ps2, i instantly went out and bought the ps2 F1 game by EA

it was shit. accelerate was push forward the right hand joystick and to break, you had to pull it back. this was like trying to pat your head and rub your tummy. totally unlike any other driving game before it.

driving around Monaco was much nicer to look at, but the steering with left joystick and accelerating/breaking with the right was a nightmare input of commands.
I played it a couple of times, never got on with it and it never saw the light of day again. I never bought another EA game again after that one.

Its not the games fault, its your own for getting it for computer and not having a good enough computer. Like we're talking about games that the developers were so lazy. Not good games that you cant play on your sucky computer

It's a gaming computer, it can run almost anything. Not just that, it works for a short amount of time and then suddenly stops working, so it isn't my computer. Ubisoft is renowned for making shitty computer games, but they managed to convince me to try this one. I regret it. I'm not really willing to fork over a lot of money to buy a 360 solely for that game. Other mainstay 360 games like Mass Effect, all the Halos (including 3 eventually), GTA IV (December 2nd), Bioshock, etc. either work fine or will work fine on the PC. Assassin's Creed therefore gets my thumbs down.

Legends. Or whatever it is called. A game about Mythological creatures, right? So you'd think you'd get to be a creature or have one or something like that right? Yes on the first, a major no on the second. Hell, you can't even hardly interact with the environment, and you get a f*cking AXE for crying out loud!

Another would be Turning Point. Almost a Call of Duty rip off, except it takes place in the states, but you can't even melee your enemies! #-o

I did rather like Assassin's Creed, though I would have hoped for a more conclusive ending, and maybe more choice on the weapons. But an alright game all-round.

I think that old ET game usually tops most lists like this... The worst I've played recently is probably Army of Two. Quite a letdown, in my opinion.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 sucked ball sack compared to the original Rainbow Six Vegas...but Assassins Creed was a hellacious game...and the reason the end sucked was so Ubi could make a franchise out of it...Cant wait until the next one comes out...

Well, few people have actually ever played the ET game, so they don't really have a right to judge, do they?

Mine is Top Gear for the SNES. It burns your eyes.

This is a hard one for me because when I play a game I'll either be stubborn and try to play it no matter what or I'll give up and think nothing of it... I'm not a very good judge in games i think :lol:

Wait, what?
As far as I remember, the Splinter Cell series (published by Ubisoft) was widely hyped and considered one of the best games of its genre.
While I agree that Assassin's Creed got a bit dull after doing the same kind of missions over and over again, the storyline, graphics and gameplay were still overwhelmingly amazing.

My top 5 worst of all time:

1. PC: Psychonauts - I spent more time illegally downloading it than actually playing it.

2. C64: Secret of the Silver Blades - A follow on from Curse of the Azure Bonds, which was a follow on from Pool of Radiance. Your character started at like level 13, and the max level was 15. This game was a complete waste of time, and the fact that you could get +6 equipment, when AD&D equipment maxed out at +5 was a sham.

3. PC: SimEarth: The Living Planet - Evolving upwards from monocellular organisms took less time in real life than in the game. The graphics were atrocious too.

4. C64: Fellowship of the Ring - I think this is the name of it. It was a RTS was game, where you had to wage war on Mordor, marching armies round the map until you came in contact with enemy armies. It was kind of cool, except for two things: First, when it went into the battle screen, you had to instruct every unit indivdually - and it was RT. When you have 300 units, this sux. Secondly, as soon as you get in a fight with an army containing Saruman, who would one-hit anything, that was game over

5. C64: Little Computer People - Kind of like The Sims, but you don't get to build the house, it's built already. Imagine a fishtank with a virtual person in it. You send him gifts, or the newspaper, or toilet paper. Well, I didn't. I sent him jack shit, but the little bugger never died, he just turned green, and kept knocking on the screen. From a review of the game... "There is no aim in this game other than to interact with your LCP." That review is more accurate if you stop reading at the word 'game'.

It was good...on consoles. As I said, I'm sure I'd have loved Assassin's Creed if it had worked longer than a few minutes at a time. Heck, they just cut and pasted the console game onto the computers. While I imagine the menu system was much more intuitive for the 360, it was very clunky to navigate on the PC. A controller and a mouse and keyboard have many differences, but Ubisoft didn't really get this. As I said, I'm not dissing the game itself, I'm dissing the piss poor presentation of it.
