The Worst Possible Xbox 360 Games
Since the Xbox 360 originally came out quite some time ago, we've been fortunate enough to see some excellent titles which leave us longing for more. On the other hand, we've seen just as many titles which have left us feeling angry and cheated.
Let's face it, games are not cheap and when we have to fork out a lot of money for a game, we expect it to be good. At the very least, we don't expect the production companies to release a game simply because they feel their profits need to be boosted. What makes it worse, is that a game can still be good even if it has a poor story line. Even when the story is useless, providing there are some truly memorable characters, most of us will be happy.
Look at the Xbox 360 game Two Worlds, for example. A few people out there will enjoy it, but the majority thought that this game had downright awful graphics. The sound was terrible and the control configuration was just bad. The great thing about the game was its online play, but that was broken as well. This game was just a complete failure in every aspect.
Then along came "Hour-of-Victory" which you may not have heard of considering it was a total failure. Unfortunately, if this game had been released a year or two sooner then it may have been enjoyable. By the time it was released however, the graphics and sound quality simply couldn't be compared to other games. Furthermore, at the time it was released, it certainly couldn't compete against games such as the "Call-of-Duty" franchise. All in all, it was simply terrible.
Vampire games are brilliant are they not? Maybe so, but that was certainly not the case with "Vampire Rain". As any gamer can attest to, a stealth game should prove to be a challenge as is the case with Splinter Cell. After all, fighting vampires should really be a challenge but if you can get past them by sneaking about, then it defeats the object of the game. It's hardly surprising then that Vampire Rain became an instant failure. What made it even worse was the fact that so many scenes had been cut, not to mention the game took forever to load. Even the sound and the graphics could only be described as being average at best.
Next we look at Jumper, the videogame based on the movie. When this game is originally intended for a cheap machine, we have to give the programmers a medal for making things look a bit shinier and also better looking for the new platform. Not in Jumper's case, though. Pure PS2 graphics, from beginning to end. This is an insult.
There are many bad games out there, and we haven't even started going through the list yet. Unfortunately, many of us are victims to this and there is nothing we can do about it once we have paid for the game. We have to learn by our mistakes.
If you really don't fancy taking your chances as to whether or not a game is good or bad, then you should ideally do a bit of research before you part with your money. In fact, there's no excuse not to, considering that there are many websites offering unbiased reviews.
