I thought it was a great list, however I think Battletoads and Syphon Filter should have been on it.

How could you possibly forget "Snakes on a Plane: The Official Video Game of the Movie". So what if it doesn't exist! ...Yet. Because, you know how those guys are with games based on movies! They're all over the place! Am I right or what?!? Gosh darn I'm great!
Anyways that was a pretty funny list, and I think "Irritating Stick" is the worst name for anything ever made ever. Only two games come to mind for me:
-Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
-Viewtiful Joe
Both of them were great games but their names were a bit out of wack.
(I apoligize for adding yet another "Snakes on a Plane" joke to the internet and donotmaimmeplz.)

I didn't have a problem with the list, i'm just amazed you guys were able to compile a list of 50 worst video game names and still be coherent, some of them were terrible!

Guilty Gear X2 #Reload: The Midnight Carnival
Just imagine the look on the clerks face when I asked for this game.
"Street Fighter 2?"

World's Scariest Police Chases was a TV show.
The best omission I've heard so far is Big Mutha Truckers. I'm sad we missed that one. |

I kept waiting to see it on the list, but it never showed up. I don't see how it could have been overlooked! I'm talking about...

I know it's not a game. But what about Nintendo's Wii?

Battle Arena Toshinden - What the fuck is a toshinden?
Ranma 1/2 - Is it Ranma Half or Ranma 1/2?
Final Fantasy - Its a Final Fantasy but there are over 15 of them, not so Final to me
Super Mario Brothers - So is Luigi's name Luigi Mario and Mario's name Mario Mario?
Legend of Zelda - Shouldnt it be the legend of Link? Zelda is just the princess, not much to her legend
Street Fighter 2010 - No street fighting in this one
Final Fight - like final fantasy. if its more than one, not so final
and also any of those stupid Japanese RPG titles like Shin Mei something saga. |

DX - Ball
Dont really need to include anything else, but the game basically revolved aroung a little bouncy ball and a long stick used for bouncing the bouncy ball bouncing into the little explodey boxes which sent the bouncy ball bouncing into the stick, which in turn bounce the bouncy ball back into the boxes. Boring. Yes - 8 bounces in 1 sentence

I just came to check out the site and check the new look on the forums. Haven't posted here forever. However I see that you guys haven't lost your great writing skils to the dark side. Good Jobs mates. I love reading your articles.
EDIT: This site is getting better and better.  |

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...
