It depends on what criteria you go by but it's either Duke Nukem Forever or Xenoblade Chronicles X (specifically the Collector's Edition, not the normal game).

There was a pizza place that had an arcade cab of this. It just not a good game.

I don't know about worst of all time but two times sequels really stood out to me as a major step back from the first game.

Dragon Age 2 was a letdown compared to how epic Dragon Age Origins was.

Jak II I really disliked compared to the awesome game and style Jak I was.

Mortal Kombat 4

It has Johnny Cage, Scorpion, and masked Sub-Zero. That alone makes it better than the non-Ultimate version of MK3.

Yeeaaaahhhhhh gonna have to say no on that.

Trilogy is the definitive edition of MK3 anyway.

Eh, I'll agree with one of those statements.

At least the multi-player and gameplay was lit.

This. It almost killed the series.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

And this is coming from someone who would argue Bioware as one of the best character designers in the business next to Capcom and Bethesda.

But still, Andromeda. That Saints Row 'reboot' comes in as a very close second place. Literally killed the development studio.

This game isn't terrible but it was a bad sequel compared to the third game... Metal Gear IV.

Metroid: Other M
I've never played it. Was it a massive change in gameplay like when metal gear rising pissed off metal gear fans? or did it just flat out suck?

After hearing about what happened with Andromeda basically getting restarted 18 months prior to release, I'm a little more forgiving towards it.

The game is functional, if incomplete. If it had been it's own thing storywise with the same gameplay, I'm sure it'd have just faded into obscurity as "OK/decent"

You couldn't have hired someone to write a better character assassination. The gameplay was about the only remotely redeeming thing about it, but the story totally castrates the gameplay, as well as Samus.

Assassin's Creed 3 sucked as a conclusion tho.

It has to be Devil May Cry 2. Everything was a downgrade from the first and they still thought it was a good idea to greenlight it.

The flip between Side Scroller and First Person was clunky and dumb. They should have just stuck to one thing.

While DMC2 is a fairly good example, that game's development is fascinating and it led to Itsuno demanding that he get a chance to make DMC3 so he wasn't known as the guy who made DMC2 so that's at least some good that came out of it.

And we also still don't know who the original director of it was before they booted them and brought Itsuno on to shove the thing out the door in six months, during which most of the work on the game was done.

Whats funny is Capcom still insists on porting it to modern consoles so we don't forget.

PS2? Check. Original release.

PS3? Don't forget DMC2. Here you go.

Xbox? You guys never had the original DMC's before so here are these and don't forget DMC2.

PS4? Here's DMC2 again. Never forget.

Nintendo Switch? Here's DMC2 on the go! Now you can remember it ANYWHERE. Re-live the disappointment during a car ride, on the subway, on the toilet (well at least DMC2 is more fun than taking a dump), and at your job!

Any Plants vs Zombies after the first. The first was a cult classic, then the parasite swept in and scooped it up.
