Current Events > What's a game that wasn't very good but you loved and played the shit out of?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Battle for Middle Earth II, for me. As far as RTS games go its pretty subpar, but if you're a LotR fan it's pretty awesome.

Sacred 2

I dunno if I love it, but it's enjoyable and I definitely played the shit out of it
---

probably True Crime: New York City.

the game was pretty bad, but it had some good moments, and I really liked the boss fights, for some reason.
---

Alpha Protocol
---

World of Warcraft

<_<
---

Super Godzilla
---

Kessen 2. So many problems and just an all-around shitty game, but I played it so much.

Too Human.

Red Steel

It was years ago not sure which game but the first True Crime was like a broke GTA. I remember me and my cousin on the phone beating it in like 1:30 hours together. That game was a joke.

Same. I liked getting forced back into a uniform so I could just act like a normal cop and respond to crimes. Beating people with legs and arms was also a highlight.

Sonic R

I got to the point where I would just do each race once and 100% the game on hard >_> It was a fun way to spend 20-30 mins.
---

Conker Live and Reloaded. The multi-player was so rough yet still so fun. A lot of people hated it, but I loved it.
---

Spawn: Armageddon. Fun hack and slash and I loved Spawn at the time.

Alpha Protocol

That, although it does have its good points.

Digimon World is buggy as hell, but I got many hours of entertainment from that.

Hogs of War multiplayer was so much fun.

T.R.AG.: Mission of Mercy I played a fair bit.

I beat Die Hard: Vendetta a few times on the GameCube. Die Hard Trilogy on the PS1 too if that counts.

What about Gunman Chronicles (PC)? I personally think that was pretty good though. GUN too was alright.

On the Mega Drive, I played Eternal Champions and Galahad loads.

Conflict: Desert Storm
Conflict 2: Back to Baghdad
Conflict: Vietnam
Conflict: Global Terror

Brigandine: Legend of Forsena.

It was an obscure Atlus game way back on the PS1. You pick one country to play as (Norgard, Iscalio, Carleon, New Almekia, Leonia, or Esgares Empire).

You have to conquer all other nations on the continent by capturing all enemy castles in turn-based battles in which you field your rune knights, of which there are varying classes (barbarians, samurai, mages, clerics, valkyrie, etc) and the summoned monsters they can control (dragons, wyverns, vampires, angels, Holmes, etc). You win a battle by eliminating the opponent's rune knights.

The game was really pretty simplistic and easy and there were hints at a deeper storyline that never really go anywhere (like a sorceror named Bulnoil who shows up when you defeat Esgares Empire and prove to be much more powerful than anyone else and wants to revive some world ending serpent, but doesn't really show up again even when you beat the game). But teenage me really enjoyed playing the game with every nation.

Oh man, I remember playing the Die Hard trilogy for pc or ps1. So good cause each game was different.

My favourite shitty game will forever be "The Thing." It was so abysmal but I loved the fear/trust system and just found it to be a fun, mindless shooter.
---

Debatably; Saga Frontier. It's such an incomplete mess but I used to play it constantly. I even got somewhat involved with hacking and translating the companion guide. I did a speedrun for Blue's quest as well. 57 minutes + Final-Boss, you can find it on YouTube if you want.

EOE: Eve Of Evolution

Loved that shit as a kid, but couldnt stomach it coming back to it like 10nyears later.
---

There was this samurai fighting game for the PS2 in which you challenged other dojos and got their moves if you won, so you could piece together your own fighting style. Very flawed but fun. I think it was called Kengo?
---

Yu-Gi-Oh: Falsebound Kingdom

The music kept me going and being able to fight and play as the Egyption Gods was cool as hell!

Romance of the three kingdoms 7-12

Predator: Concrete Jungle

Mario Tennis Power Tour

F.E.A.R. 2 (PS3)

first game I played extensively Online.

Alpha Protocol

Same here.
For all of it's flaws it still has the best use of conversation trees that I've ever seen.

Also Nier.
The gameplay is terrible. The fetch quests are repetitive...but the plot and music are awesome. Tbh you'd have just as much fun watching a let's play as actually playing it.

Enter the Matrix on Ps2.

I was such a Matrix fanboi before 2 and 3 came out... you could have literally taken a dump in a box, called it a Matrix game, and I would have loved it... in fact, that may be what they did.
